Yes, new VM and new Lost.

Of course, VM is being repeated over the weekend AND next Tuesday -- so you could make your decision based on that.

I haven't come up with a plan to deal with three shows/one time slot.

::cough::torrent::cough::

UPN, at least in Boston, only sent 10 hours of programming per week. I don't think the change should hurt them too much.

As long as 38 has the Phantom Gourmet and the Cheesy 80's movie of the week that comes after, they'll be fine without UPN.

Besides, how much does 10 hours of UPN a week cost? Like, a buck fifty? (Checks thread title). I mean, for all those other shows, of course.

They put a positive spin on it saying they could be more devoted to local programming. Yeah right.

Locally, KRON lost NBC and has done well with Elimidate and Fear Factor. But seriously, KRON works because local news was always their strong suit and viewers stuck with them out of longstanding habit, lack of network affiliation notwithstanding.

Before KOFY-20 became a WB outlet it was one of San Francisco's more idiosyncratic media outlets. Its owner, Jim Gabbert, was one of a kind, but I wouldn't mind seeing one of our netlet franchises revert to independent status. It could be freeing.

3 hours and 11 minutes, unless you're me (or a Somervillain) in which case it's *counts on fingers* ... *and toes* 52 hours and 11 minutes.

There are still those of us too techno-impaired to master ahemming, though I may, eventually. I have no doubt those whippersnappers will have moved on to some newfangled out-of-reach technosystem by then.

In the meantime, the TiFaux can record one, watch another or record two, watch either, but not a third. The men of the household will be watching Bones in the living room while it records; I'll watch it later. StY and I will watch Lost later. And I'll be watching Veronica Mars realtime in the bedroom. I suppose all thought of ever watching Criminal Minds (I've been watching the Dharma & Greg reruns, and have suddenly developed a fondness for Thomas Gibson) again is mere folly, right?

I've been watching the Dharma & Greg reruns

I've been enjoying these too. Relaxing stuff.

I don't know what the local WB station is going to do. There are a number of independant stations in Miami that do local interest programming. I don't even get the WB right now because DirecTV Palm Beach doesn't consider it a local channel. The cable company does include it. The UPN station would show some of the WB programming at later dates. I'm all confused, but now I will get the WB lineup, if desired, on the new station.

I will watch Lost live and tape VM. I only catch other programs when both of these are repeats. Here's hoping that CW decides that some time other than 9PM Wednesday is a better time for VM.

I'll be back after I get to watch the tape. It looks quite interesting from the preview.

I'm not sure I understand. Duncan's the father. With Meg dead, wouldn't he have custody?

Yeah--I understand that the grandparents (Meg's parents) could certainly sue for custody, and possibly win (if the whole abuse thing doesn't come out) given their more stable life and ability to raise a child and blah blah blah. But Duncan would surely have rights and so on?
