Al Franken was supposed to have been on the Sundance channel at 10:30

but was not. Instead, more reruns of Tanner 88. At least on Comcast.

3. It actually did come on at 10:30 -- I saw it. Repeat at 1:30 (central).

4. Thanks. Who is your Cable provider?

Because here, in the NW suburb served by Comcast, at 10:00 and 10:30 there was Tanner 88, and at 11:00 was the movie Taxi Driver.

Is the program supposed to air every night?

5. Sounds like you're getting the West Coast feed

or something like that.

Time Warner has the East Coast feed, and Taxi Driver was on earlier in the evening.

6. I have Cox.

Franken's program will be on weeknights. If you'd like to read more, go here: http://www.sundancechannel.com/al/?PHPSESSID=37062156ccbdcae232c3314eb6f53787

I wonder why your cable company has it scheduled differently?

7. Thanks. This is bizarre. Yes, Al Franken will be at 1:30 AM

if I choose not to sleep.

I called Comcast and they told me that this is Sundance's call, not their which I find really bizarre.

So I used the feedback link from the URL you provided and fired Sundance a question and complaint. Will see what happens. It's not as if I can select my cable provider and, yes, I'd rather have Time Warner or Cox.

8. It sounds like your cable company gave you a dishonest answer.

Franken's show is scheduled by Sundance to re-air at 1:30 am (central) , which means your cable co. sees fit to skip the broadcast that could be seen by more people. I'm glad you've e-mailed Sundance about this!
