BET screws up yet again... - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

nocomments · 05-28-2008, 10:16 AM

Today's morning episodes (9-10 AM, eastern time) were supposed to be "So You Want to Be a Rock Star" and "Bulimia". That's what was listed here on Sitcoms Online, on BET's site, and even the channel guide. What did BET do instead? They gave "Love on the Run" again, at 9:30.

What gives? Did they suddenly decide that "Bulimia" was too "risque" to air on TV? And watch, they'll probably skip it and just continue with the regularly-scheduled episodes at 3 and 3:30 PM. I hope BET has an explanation for that...

For those that taped/recorded it, there's the heads up. I just wasted 1/4 of a DVD because of this!

Damm I was hoping it was true because I hate the bulima episode.

BTW: if this is a lie the Original Poster should be banned and definetly should get a life

No comments is NOT lying.......Love On the Run is the episode that aired at 8:30 central

nocomments · 05-28-2008, 10:32 AM

Yeah, why would I lie about something like this? I was just watching it myself and merely sharing it to you all.

Pavan · 05-28-2008, 10:48 AM

I just contacted BET...I'll see what I can find out. I don't think they removed it because it was "risque."

TVFactFan · 05-28-2008, 01:19 PM

well that's good news because when i looked to see what eps would be on today before i went to work, when i saw the bulima ep scheduled for 9;30am i was like-"OH BOY, but now that I hear it wasn;t on there I don;t have to watch it. That's one ep of DS I don;t mind having OUT of my collection

angel676 · 05-28-2008, 01:32 PM

Well this sucks!!!!!!

I was looking forward to watching "Bulimia". I guess I'm the only one that likes this ep. Does BET plan on airing this ep???

ThomasE · 05-28-2008, 03:30 PM

angel, I like it too. I was looking forward to this episode but it looks like there was a screw up. I wanted to see it. I already have it from NAN but wanted to get the syndicated version.

Jude The Obscure · 05-28-2008, 03:35 PM

I haven't seen this one at all, so it will be a "new" episode to me, heck almost all of season 8 i new to me. I'm enjoying season 8 a lot more than season 7.

except for that ep about Sam's birthday-lol OMG that was the worst

BET's statement:

"Bulimia" did not air because there were issues with the show tape. We had to replace it.

That's what I figured the case was...content of the episode was not the issue.

Thanks, Pav. I wanted to contact BET but since you did it, it saves me the trouble. I wish it aired. At least the ep aired was with Kimberly.

Jude The Obscure · 05-28-2008, 03:50 PM

Funny how stations still have to rely on tape

hopefully they can get another copy and be able to show it during the next cycle.

Pavan · 05-28-2008, 03:52 PM

The episode won't air until they get a revised copy from Sony. Unless they renew the show after August, I don't think we'll see it on BET.
