Third Watch---2 hours???

[distchief60b]

the show was advertised to come on at 8PM here and I was watching the channel before 8 and then after 9 PM... It was only an hour long here????????? (florida) unless I missed something????

What gives? When is the remainder aired? It was advertised as a 3 part story and I understood it would bet 16th/17th/18th. But it was not on last night

It is a three-part deal. Interviews were Monday night, next Monday shows the day before the attack, the Monday after will portray one week after the attack.

There was a special news break during the first hour of the show, so if you were flipping channels you may have thought the show wasn't on yet. It started at 7:00 central, which should be 8:00 by you. What did you see on that channel after 9:00? Maybe your local broadcast station goofed in their programming.

Was anyone else annoyed at NBC for cutting out the program for a Special News Report that certainly could have waited until 10 since all they knew was that the baby had contracted Anthrax but nothing more. I was peeved...especially since they didn't pause the Third Watch Special so we didn't miss anything during the News Report. These people are the heroes that saved thousands of lives that day and they were interrupted to tell us that a 7 month old had Anthrax..something that the news had already reported earlier that day. I think they could have handled that better..and now the tape I made of Third Watch has that damn News Report in the middle of it. I am writing NBC to get a copy of the Third Watch tape minus their little report.

For those that receive their NBC programming from NYC, here is the website you can go to, to write a letter to NBC about interrupting the Third Watch show. Thanks.
