epguides.com reports that the final four unaired episodes of Suddenly Susan actually did have an original airdate on NBC: from 2:00am - 4:00am on December 26, 2000.

As incredibly bizarre as that sounds, I can beleive it. I know NBC seemed to be big into running unaired episodes of their cancelled shows in early morning timeslots back then. I even remember them showing previously unaired epsiodes of "Tucker" in late night/early morning timeslots following the late night talk shows in early 2001.

It's not a bad idea, really. If these episodes are already bought and in the can, they had might as well air them. And it's not like they are risking it replacing a ratings smash in the 2am time slot. Plus, I'm sure the few diehard fans that realized that these episodes would be shown appreciated it (especially in the case of a show like Suddenly Susan, which had been on for a while and deserved a finale).
