Members Darn Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 You literally just said that. They probably want something to fill that hour most of the week, not two times a week. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 Because -- and this is just my guess -- that's not what they agreed to when they made the deal with PP. I've said before that it isn't exactly easy to program two shows that air on alternate days -- and that isn't including the "MORE" shows for both at the end of the week. Or maybe early ratings weren't all that spectacular and FXC was looking for the first excuse to bail. Who knows? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members DavidsMuse Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 FX Canada agreed to four episodes/week for each show. IMO they believe PP has reneged on the contract, so I expect the next news we'll have is FX Canada suing them. That might restore the old schedule faster than anything else!

Members Khan Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 If that happens, PP better get ready for fans to camp outside their offices in Century City with torches and pitchforks. Believe me, y'all have been yanked around enough. The LAST thing you want or need is another scheduling change so soon. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members John Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 I doubt they will sue. I mean if PP had stopped prod altogether basically cancelling them they wouldnt sue. Or any network could sue when a syndicated show alters or ends prod Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 I don't think FXC will sue PP (or vice-versa) either. They tried this arrangement, it didn't work, and now they're available on iTunes Canada. Dem's da breaks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members ~bl~ Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 If you were watching it solely on FX Canada as you saw a promo on television and have no idea of what is going on I can understand if when they aren't on next week that you'd get upset. Not everyone is reading forums or uses social media. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 That's true, bl. Not everyone who watched AMC and/or OLTL on FXC might know of this change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members dragonflies Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 I feel for those who might have upgraded their cables to get this channel Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Khan Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 But they could always downgrade, couldn't they? Or is AT&T U-Verse the only cable provider that allows you to make changes to your package whenever you feel like it? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members cassadine1991 Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 cable stations change their schedules all the time, this isn't any different.. they could've easily done this Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members DavidsMuse Posted May 20, 2013 Members Share Posted May 20, 2013 Folks who had to switch Canadian cable providers to get FX Canada are out the most money! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
