And with the Simpsons it seems like every year now the first episode is a tree house of horror (which get worse every year because they aren't even halloween anymore) which is aired around Thanksgiving. Then a real episode. Then they either have a flashback episode, or a story episode.

well, im getting sick of the simpsons, i like watching the new episodes, but they are played way too much over here, if you plan your watching shcedule right, with in the space of 3 months you could have watched EVERY episode, and a few m ore repeated episodes. Bloody ridiculous.
On the plus side, Family Guy and King Of the Hill are wicked, and not played often enough. |

Also, Family Guy doing storytelling shit in the same vein is stupid. Combine that with Blue Harvest (Which may actually be good), and we're going down a bad path for these shows.

Football shouldn't have affected prime time that much though.. The "late" FOX game starts at 3 pm CST and would be over by 6:30pm CST..
Doesn't "prime time" start at 7pm CST?? |

Football isn't as much a problem as NASCAR, especially since Fox decided to have coverage of the rain delay at the race all Sunday night.

Football is often still running at 8 Eastern (Which is 7 central), then Fox does an half an hour of recap and so on, which often carries to 8:30 or 9.

Regular season wasn't the problem as much as they had the pro-bowl, super-bowl, some 3 year old movie, and now some dumb show they have been heavily promoting but it is going to suck.

Now, "bowl" games are different because of a longer halftime etc but the 17 regular season games never run over three and a half hours..
Also, FOX (NFC) and CBS (AFC) split the "double header" so unless your local coverage team is playing on the west coast on a certain week, like 6 times outta 10, there won't even be a "late" game on FOX.. |

You can say I'm wrong, but it doesn't change the fact that there are regular season games on my TV at 8...

No, there are games running over late on Fox all the time. Then the fucking recap shows pre-empting the only good shows on their network (Besides House)

Yeah, cause telling me something that three people don't PHYSICALLY SEE on a normal basis isn't real is "Factual". Jesus Christ, it's like you're fucking five.

4:15 pm EST is the absolute latest game broadcast on Sundays on FOX during the regular season.. Quote:
Can't really find any "proof" but their post game show is not long at all.. I don't even think it's 30 minutes cause NBC's "Football Night in America" is running well before the FOX (or CBS) late game is done.. |

Also, what the shit was that last night on the simpsons. Bart doesn't run a gang, Nelson did, Jimbo does. Bart just does pranks with Milhouse.
Also, Bart and Nelson aren't best friends, they were for an episode. If they are going to start doing that kind of crap (which they have been doing) they might as well end the series. |

I could be mistaken, but a number of the football games on Fox had a 3:30 pm Centrtal Standard Time kick off. Football games tend to last between 3 to 3.5 hours depending on time outs taken, running the ball out of bounds (which stops the clock) and a number of there things. Simpsons is suppose to start at 7:00 pm Central Stardard Time. So you are telling me a game wouldn't overrun the Simpsons time slot ever without overtime? Also, football games were ever as bad as this NASCAR shit.
