was malcolm and the fox schedule like this?

I was just wondering if Tivo actually did some good and adjusted the schedule on the fly last night or if my memory is just bad.

When I scheduled the usual Sunday stuff, I saw the game was on and recorded every fox show from 800-1100. I figured it would run over and since I wanted most of the 800-1000 shows I thought I couldn't lose with an hour 'padding'. I started watching the tivo'd stuff around 830 and of course things were running late. no biggie, I had planned for it.

But then when I got to the 930 malcolm recording, I was almost up to live and saw that the program was scheduled for 45 min! It's never that long so I was wondering did tivo extend it because of the game or was malcolm already scheduled for 45 min and I just didn't see it? My separate recording of the 1000-1100 program was not necessary at all because malcolm was recording 930-1015.

It would be great to know that tivo changed this 'on the fly'. so I was just wondering if anyone remembers how the schedule was set up a few days ago.

That would be pretty incredible. For me in Dallas, Tivo did not do anything. Everything from Simpsons to AD was 25 minutes late.

I agree it would be incredible but so is the possibility that they made malcolm 45 minutes. So I'm very curious to see what really was the case.

I dont know how they did it but I noticed it too.

I saw that Malcolm was on when I tried pay Arrested but 15minutes into it AD started

I was like crap ... the football game ... then I noticed that it was past 10 pm EST & it was still going ... I am boggled by how this happened ... cause my guide was saying the a Raymond ReRun should of been on

All I know is that I watched all four shows (Simpsons, Bernie, Malcolm, and AD) and they were each half an hour like usual. I'm not sure about the scheduling though because we got the shows at their regularly scheduled time here in AZ.

Who knows, I missed the simpsons b/c my Tivo didn't have the miraculous auto-correction.

Ohh well :(

ah so that's what's so good about living on the west coast (teasing). I don't know how those central and mountain people deal with all the time differences and stuff. I'm glad I'm on the east coast.
