F*cking World Series? That makes no sense at all, what the hell does the World Series has to do with a TV sitcom? I hate baseball so much because of ******** ass scheduling around the WS. steamed!!

the other networks know that thewy will get shutout by the series ratingswise so they figure why waste new eps on a ging when they are going to lose anyway

The big market teams are not in the WS, Philly, Boston, New York so I think it was safe to air a new episode.

It's not because of the World Series. It's the week before sweeps, usually networks air repeats then.

All of CBS shows and ABC shows on Thursday Night will be New Episodes. Explain that

I don't get it, because the WS doesn't nearly get the rating of the NFL.

So? That proves my point. If the World Series was the reason, CBS and ABC would be repeats on Thursday. And I said "usually" networks air repeats a week before sweep. CBS is in repeats next Wednesday. NBC has a Parenthood repeat coming up on Tuesday, and that's NOT against the World Series, is it? And games 3-7, during sweep, all networks will be all-new against the World Series. Explain that. November sweep starts Thursday, Oct. 27. NBC will be new that day against the World Series. Explain that.

The preemption of Sunday Night Football in years past is the only program that deliberately is not going against the NFL. CBS next Wednesday and NBC this Thursday are in repeats not because of the World Series.
