The have promo'd all weekend that The Sixth Sense would be on tonight - as well as the trailer for "The Village". Well, it is, on the high def channel.

On the SD 28 they are showing some Hugh Grant/Annie McDowell sleeper.

I have seen the networks do that a few times.
If they have two shows that they want to show in the same time slot usually a national show vs a local show, and if one show is in HD and the other is in SD, they will do what they do tonight.

Sometimes people notice the conflict in the schedule before the show starts, and Brian clears it up for us. He knows most of the station managers, but not well enough to get us another station tour. ;)

I saw WTSP do it on some NCAA Regional Basketball Tournament Games - and they also did it on Friday of the Masters up until CBS Evening News at 6:30PM while Arnold Palmer did the last round of his Master's career.

I have just never seen them do it on a Primetime Movie that was hyped.

Wait a minute.. I have two more station tours planned.. possibly three.. ABC is definately a go.. its just a matter of schduling conflicts. CBS is a go also.. FOX is going to be a go but right now their kinda of busy switching out equipment.

Well I for one really enjoyed the first one, and look forward to them all.
Thanks again.
