1/30/95 OJ Simpson Trial 6 (1-303PM)

11/23/95 (Local Fill for NFL Game: 4-709PM)

 

I went ahead and researched all of the Days preemption reasons, with the exact timings. Luckily, most of the OJ preemptions were actually rated, so we have the exact timings for all of those now (at least for NBC). For some reason, NBC only did not rate the 1/26/95 OJ trial (by process of elimination, since we had Trial 4 & Trial 6, I titled it Trial 5). The only other unrated item was the 3/3/95 Presidential Press Conference (but the last 10 minutes of analysis was rated). As already stated on my website, East & Central time zone stations had local fill for Days on 5/30/94 and 11/23/95 for sports events which aired at 1PM PT.

General Hospital: 1994-1995: Preemptions:

12/25/95 Kelly Blue-Gray Football (12-330PM) & Jeep Eagle Aloha Bowl (330-728PM)

 

As with all shows, looks like perhaps GH may have had national preemptions due to two short episodes (27 minutes on 11/9/94 and 18 minutes on 4/21/95, so if there are any GH fans who know, was that the case?)

Thank you!

 

Well, this explains why there are so many GL January 1995 episodes floating around with inconsistent dates. I haven't found any recaps for that month either so that will be tricky to reconcile. I've got to imagine that 1/30/95 is counting as a full preemption and was reaired the next day.

 

According to Usenet, the Y&R special that aired 1/23/95 was Danny and Cricket's wedding from 1990, but some users got that on 1/24. The new episode of Y&R for 1/23/95 was preempted.

1/30/95 it aired for 59 minutes (in 95 percent of the country). Why do you think it was a full preemption?

It was preempted 3 times in January 1995:

1/2/95 Carquest Auto Parts Bowl (130-503PM)

1/23/95 Y&R Classics (3-4PM)

1/25/95 Unrated special report (3-305PM) & CBS Soapbreak (305-330PM) & Bold and the Beautiful (330-4PM)

 

Two partial preemptions:

1/24/95 from 3-306PM (then aired the rest to 83 percent of the country)

1/30/95 from 3-301PM (then aired the rest to 95 percent of the country)

 

So if you "need" an extra preemption to make airdates fit, it looks like the more likely date would be 1/24/95, since 17 percent of the country didn't get the episode.

Oh, duh! I read it wrong. I thought it was preempted for 59 minutes.

Oh, yes, then that would have made sense!  But it was only preempted for 1 minute!!
