Amateur Hour

Published by Toronto Mike on March 28, 2007 @ 19:58 in Television

musicAre you following the whole Juno Awards time shuffle? A two-hour episode of The Amazing Race was set to clash with the Juno Awards, so CTV announced they would tape-delay the Juno broadcast for those of us in the East.

As you might imagine, CTV was criticized heavily for this announcement. How hokey is it that the Juno Awards would air at 10pm instead of 8pm because of some lousy American reality show? Now CTV will air the Juno Awards before The Amazing Race, just to please us in the centre of the universe.

It's amateur hour. How embarrassing, eh?

typical CTV. they tried to get away with it - glad they got called on it.
all they care about is the money - they tried the proverbial double-dip. would have been the second time in three years they put off the Canadian Cultural event for American television interests.
