What's On TV - Bait and Switch?
Ok, I debated whether to start this topic but I had to talk about an incorrect TV listing for tonight's (9/7) Leno where it lists Jennifer Love Hewitt as his guest. Now, I don't hate Leno, some of his monologue is funny and the bits are good (I like "Headlines") but I usually skip his "interviews".
However, what do I find when turning on Leno? No, not the lovely J. Love. It's... Dr. Friggin Phil.
Now, so this isn't a waste of a thread, has this happened to anyone else? Have you seen something on the grid only to find not only it's something else but much, much worse?
Edit - Another example: Going through the grid, one of the movie channels had "The Wicker Man" one starring Christopher Lee (at least according to the description). Well, 'lo and behold its the POS Cage version. Though if you're feeling down, it'll at least give you a few good laughs.

This happens a lot with Late Night with Conan O’Brien on the Shaw Digital Cable TV info grid. It does that with The Tonight Show with Jay Leno from time to time as well but Conan’s info gets screwed up more often.
