Fans discuss Jason Alexander's new show "Bob Patterson" which was bumped from its scheduled air date, with confusion about when it actually aired and disappointment about network programming choices.

I didn't see it--not having cable and the building on which ABC transmitted its signal in my area no longer exists.

So, kids, how does this second of the Seinfeld alumni's forays into a new show look to everyone?

Is JA playing BP as GC?

It seems it was bumped for one of those glorified-mail-order-bride shows, something like "Who wants to sign over their life to a complete stranger" or whatever.

Ahh, the joys of televised prostitution. The only difference between those shows and COPS is the lack of digitally-blurred faces. ;-)

No, you didn't screw up. Jason Alexander was on Letterman last night saying that the premiere indeed is now on for October 2nd. (CBS is the only station I've been able to get continually since the 11th, that network having an old, "backup" transmitter on the Empire State Building. For about a week, I wasn't able to get Fox: No Seinfelds. Now I get it, but not as clear as I did before the 11th. Ditto NBC. And, BTW, that Frasier premiere I thought positively awful.)

Anyhow, my NooYawk Times TV Guide had indicated that Bob Patterson was premiering this past Tuesday, the 25th. Obviously, that got changed--and I believe the premiere was postponed once before already. If ABC has a new transmitter up by October 2nd, I may get to see it yet.
