I have a Question how come TBS stoped airing there programs at the 5's and the 35's

On June 29, 1981, TBS began to use "Turner Time." While other television offerings generally began at the top and bottom of hours, TBS decided to begin airing programs five minutes later, at :05 and :35.

By using "Turner Time," TBS programs were listed under their own time entry in TV Guide, thus providing more exposure to the channel's programming. It also encouraged channel surfers who couldn't find anything interesting to watch at the top of the hour, to still be able to watch a TBS program without missing the first few minutes. Most importantly, since shows ended five minutes later than normal, it usually encouraged viewers to continue watching TBS rather than flip to watch another program already in progress.

TBS scrapped Turner Time in 1997, and now schedules programs at the top and bottom of the hour (excluding Seinfeld on Tuesdays which airs at 9:15 and 9:45 PM)

thats according to Wiki...

Are you sure they stopped it in 1997, and not like 1999 or 2000? It doesn't seem that long ago to me.
