The date could be Oct. 30 instead now, so they can air the interview for November Sweeps. I'll let you all know soon, if that is indeed the case.

A DIANE SAWYER EXCLUSIVE: AMY YASBECK TALKS ABOUT THE SPIRITED LIFE AND LOVING LEGACY OF HER LATE HUSBAND, JOHN RITTER, ON "PRIMETIME THURSDAY," OCTOBER 23 ON ABC

Also: Brian Ross Investigates Hospital-Acquired Infections and the Dangerous Bacteria that Are Living in Some Hospitals

And: Meet the Dancing Man from those Joe Boxer Commercials

In an exclusive "Primetime Thursday" interview with Diane Sawyer, actress Amy Yasbeck speaks candidly about the sudden, tragic death of her husband, actor John Ritter, and the void his death has caused in the lives of his family and friends. Yasbeck describes Ritter's last day and discusses how she and their young daughter are coping with the pain of his loss. "He was a wonderful husband," says Yasbeck, who paints a portrait of a man who loved his family above all else and was just like the kind, fun-loving on-screen characters that endeared him to millions. Ritter, the star of the ABC sitcom "8 Simple Rules for Dating My Teenage Daughter," died last month of an undetected heart ailment. "Primetime Thursday" airs THURSDAY, OCTOBER 23 (10:00-11:00 p.m., ET), on the ABC Television Network.

Also: Legendary sports journalist Dick Schaap's death following a routine hip replacement shocked his family, friends and fans. Chief Investigative correspondent Brian Ross reports that Schaap's family believes an infection he acquired at one of New York's most prestigious hospitals contributed to his death. The hospital denies the claim. Today, hospital-acquired infections are the fourth leading cause of death in America. They are increasingly difficult to treat because many strains have become resistant to even the most powerful antibiotics. Some critics say hospital infections are a disgrace to America's health care system, and many could be easily prevented.

And: Cynthia McFadden talks with Vaughn Lowery, the young actor who has catapulted to pop culture stardom with his fun-loving, dancing character in Joe Boxer underwear commercials.

ABCNEWS.com will provide companion programming and carry reports from "20/20" on ABC News Live, the 24/7 streaming video news network available on the Internet to subscribers. Go to ABCNEWS.com for more information.

Diane Sawyer and Charles Gibson are the co-anchors of "Primetime Thursday." David Doss is the executive producer. (CLOSE CAPTIONED)
