Will the major networks carry *'s speech tonight?
I'm going to be ticked off if ABC does. The 2 hour season finale of Grey's Anatomy is tonight.

:grr:

2. I assume so.
Maybe they will just push back the start-time of all their shows, I doubt the speech can be that long...

and the TV guide indicates about a half hour speech. I hope so.

5. The bastard's cutting into OLBERMANN!
And of course, there will be the obligato post-speech wrap up where two talking heads say something along these lines:

Head #1: So...the president said...well, what DID he say, Fred?
Head #2: Damned if I know! Was that in English?

7. "Prison Break" promo said it will start at 8:20 PM.
I believe this was during "Family Guy" last night. The promo said the show would start at 8:20, after the speech.

10. ABC already said it would
I think they're rescheduling some Oprah special or something, so otherwise, the schedule won't change. The nets are pretty pissed at having to cough up an hour during sweeps week.

11. The marketing and PR never ends. They put this idiot on during
May sweeps knowing tons of people will be tuning in to their network shows for the finales.

I'm glad they're trotting him out though - it will furhter piss off the masses whose television he's interrupting. Hehehe

12. Worst ratings ever?
For a presidential address, I'm certainly not watching this dog and pony show i'll either put in a movie or come in here and palaver with you people.
