Re: Dawn's Early Light omissions on Peacock Network

Yes...it has to be Grand Deceptions

Re: Dawn's Early Light omissions on Peacock Network

Ah crap, you're right!

There's mud on the floor from being out planting the bomb.

My bad!

Re: Dawn's Early Light omissions on Peacock Network

Every episode is on the Internet Archive and can be watched uninterrupted.

Re: Dawn's Early Light omissions on Peacock Network

In the era of COLUMBO a two-hour episode of a first-run show had EIGHTEEN minutes of commercials.
In our time it has THIRTY minutes of commercials.
Syndicated programs cut out SEVERAL more minutes of wax show to stick in even more commercials.

Do the math.
I would never watch COLUMBO on any commercial outlet.

Correction: two hour eps had TWENTY FOUR minutes of commercials.

One more time( what happened to EDIT YOUR POST).

0riginal COLUMBO first run two hour episode: 24 minutes of commercials
Second run two hour episode: 30 minutes of commercials.

If COLUMBO were on today: FORTY minutes of commercials.

So, an original episode will have at least SIXTEEN MINUTES cut!
Second run AT LEAST ten minutes cut.

Skip it.

[Edit Post] should be available for the 1st hour after submission only. The actual button is [Make Changes].

I'm not sure why it's only available for an hour, but I guess it gets confusing when people start responding, and then the Original Post starts changing.

Nope, you're right. Once you SUBMIT your posting, you cannot EDIT.
