Is it just me or does BB seem to start at different times each night? And Friday it didn't air at all! What's going on over there?

BB didn't show on friday night because they were showing a dbz movie (i think it was deadzone but I'm not sure) If you look at the listings, BB rarely shows on Fridays, CN is playing their In Flight Movies or whatever they're called now.

i wouldn't know about different times during the week because I start taping at six so I can have DBZ for my bro and BB for me.

CN is definitely fast by a couple of minutes. I use one of those atomic clock synchronizing programs to set my computer clock, then set the VCR to that. I have to start taping BB two minutes early if I want to get the beginning. That kind of ruined my first week of taping, because I didn't check them out right away and I had programmed the VCR to start at 6:30.

Yeah, I have noticed this also. Nick to is sometimes off.

I usually set my tape timings to have a buffer of a couple minutes before and after the show just in case there's any delays or time differences.

I tell my TiVo to go ahead an redord 5 minutes before, BB always seems to start on time though...sometimes a minute or two early though. This is from the Pacific feed though, may be different for the east.

Not only is the time goofy but has CN changed the BB beginning as well? I'm not sure the 'quotes' beginning is better than just the very cool :60 music track...!

Yeah I've started watching BB while taping it because it starts at different times every night.
