I was hoping you weren't being sarcastic. I was going to jump on your "AI fans against Bush" bandwagon!

with all the stupidity that has going on with Fox I wouldn't be suprised if they cancelled 24 on Monday morning because the ratings are crap due to competition from The Sopranos.

Perhaps HBO will do the right thing and agree to replay "The Sopranos" 10,000 times over the next week to compensate for this?

Why can't they at least show it at its regular time on everywhere but the east coast? I live on the east coast but I could still catch the Fox west coast feed at midnight.

boy it sucks for me, since now i have 3 shows to watch, 24, alias, and sopranos.
There is something very ironic about George Bush Jr. delaying a show about fighting terrorists.

And it gets even better when you realize CTU is the 'USA MI5' many pundits have suggested creating to fight terror in the US...

Out of curiousity, when does Canada air this episode? It'd be nice to not have to wait another five days...

FX Gets Encores of '24,' CBS Doubles Up 'Survivor'
(Thursday, April 15 02:49 PM)


LOS ANGELES (Zap2it.com) - With "24" bumped out of its regular time period this week, FOX is making sure viewers have a couple extra chances to see the show.

As it's done in the past, the network will use its cable sibling FX for additional airings of the episode, which debuts at 9 p.m. ET Sunday (April 18). FOX had to move "24" from its normal home this week to accommodate President Bush's televised press conference Tuesday night, which also bumped "American Idol" back a day.

The episode, "6:00 A.M.-7:00 A.M.," will have some stiff competition on Sunday, airing opposite new episodes of "Law & Order: Criminal Intent" on NBC and "Alias" on ABC, plus "The Sopranos" on HBO.

FX will rebroadcast "24" at 11 p.m. ET Monday and 6 p.m. ET Tuesday, three hours before the show returns to its regular spot on FOX.

FOX employed a similar strategy during the show's first season, scheduling multiple repeats of "24" on FX to allow viewers to keep up with the real-time thriller's plot. Network executives credited the "multiplexing" with helping keep the series on the air as early episodes struggled somewhat in the ratings.

The ripples from Bush's press conference have spread to CBS as well. That network will re-air Thursday's (April 15) episode of "Survivor: All-Stars" -- which is up against the delayed "American Idol" results show -- at 8 p.m. ET Friday. It pre-empts a repeat of "Joan of Arcadia."


This is good news for those of you that don't have Tivo!

Chris
