The action that annoys me is when they always take off my favourite show to broadcast a football game...

That happens to us too. We usually watch one and then record the other one on our DVR.

The networks are very curtious -- they schedule the good ones simultaniously so you don't spend as much time watching TV and more time quilting. Boy, if they only knew what they were doing, they'd change things!

If anyone missed Project Runway, they always re-broadcast the show the next week just before the current show.
