TV scheduling

Juliet made a good point tonight about those dreadful TV reality shows. We don’t watch any of them, but they intrude on our lives through their impact on TV programming.

Channels Ten and Nine are frequently behind schedule because of their various sops to so-called reality.

That means if you want to watch “Law and Order” for example, at 8.30pm, it actually starts at 8.45pm.

I’m surprised there haven’t been more complaints about this issue. And I don’t understand why the stations don’t remedy this through the TV guides.
I can only assume they’re happy to run late because that attracts extra viewers at the end of dud programs.
