Not on, local ABC affiliate. Football taking over the channel from 7 to 10, including Castle's usual time slot? Really? I'm surprised ABC actually let you preempt its Dancing with the Stars cash cow.

Hopefully this is not a regular occurrence.

(Oh, how spoiled I've become by living somewhere with a TV again...)

Noooooo, Dancing with the Stars was preempted?

Crap. My shameful secret is out.

I am pretty sure X-Files was preempted at least twice a season for local sports and what-all when I was a teenager, and I think I actually got around to digging out a phonebook to look up the FOX affiliate's number. (I didn't actually call, though; pussied out!)

Shows getting cut off so local weather can go on and on about the OMG!thunderstorms? Bane of my existence during May sweeps.

Heh... Bonus to living in the Pacific time zone - the football game is already done. :)

Oh, poor icepixie. Since Monday Night Football is on ESPN (and therefore cable), in the home market, they have to broadcast it on a local channel (I think it's actually a legal issue or something). It's just your bad luck that they had it on ABC. In Chicago it's always one of the weird stations that compromise the CW (Or whatever it is now). And it's the Jacksonville Jaguars and the Tennessee Titans. Yes, my father watches a lot of football, why do you ask?
