No evening shows for UM tomorrow or Friday - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

I truly regret to say this, but according to the schedule at the Lifetime web site, there will no evening episodes of UM either tomorrow or Friday. Instead, it will be Lifetime movies at 7 pm (Eastern Time) on both nights. What this means is that the show's two-week evening run will be prematurely over after tonight.

Thats crap! Stupid Lifetime!

Whats strange is it must have been a last minute decision by Lifetime because my cable on screen tv listings shows it still being on twice Thursday & Friday nights.

Goofyman · 05-10-2006, 04:58 PM

Or perhaps it's a glitch in the TV calendar system for Lifetime? My TV says UM as well, but it could indeed be last-minute.

MeeVee Guide has UM listed for Thursday and Friday nights - two hours.

Their listings are pretty reliable too.

Remind me to stock up on some Kleenex and a barf bag!

This is ridiculous! Lifetime should've kept Unsolved Mysteries on for at least till the end of the summer. A two week special airing is silly and just disappointing!

is it just me or has anyone else noticed that when advertising UM they say catch UM at 7 and 8 pm weeknights on lifetime. They no longer say it's for 2 weeks. Does this mean they are trying to put it back on during that time slot? Just a thought.!

Brent88 · 05-10-2006, 07:01 PM

I guess the ratings weren't good. I've been having a hard time watching it. 8pm is booked for me every night already and 7pm ET is tough as well.

Goofyman · 05-10-2006, 07:03 PM

It's on right now (Unsolved Mysteries, the one with the lady who has memories of a steamboat, etc.). I think the glitch theory is confirmed; I was watching The Golden Girls and it wasn't advertising any movies that were to come on "next" or anything, I dunno.

Well, it's hard to say for sure whether the ratings were a factor. What I do know is that Lifetime was planning to show UM in evening for only two weeks.

In any case, it goes without saying that we were ripped off.

I just checked my TV listings thru Excite & they have UM listed for tomorrow & Friday.

GoldenGirlsFan92 · 05-10-2006, 07:51 PM

I think they should've kept them on for 2 full weeks. I think Lifetime should release some DVDs of Unsloved mysteries since they owned the rights of the show for about 2 years.

Goofyman · 05-10-2006, 08:10 PM

Okay, nevermind about it being confirmed, I was thinking of something else and was wrong.

I think that if they cancel for tomorrow and Friday, they're being suck. I like UM being on at night, it's the only time I can catch it live. Now, if you ask me if I'd rather see some original NBC airings back in primetime (like Seinfeld, it's on at like 6PM on FOX, what's up with that?) for everyone to watch.

As far as it being cancelled for the next two days, I think it could still be a glitch, but it might just be that the displays aren't updated yet.
