Surprised it doesn’t air on CBS, or ABC etc prime local channels, it’s on some back channel like TRU?
It’s a little silly. I knew exactly where to go when it wasn’t on CBS last night, but why not? Put it on all the Turner channels and a Spanish option. Stream it on HBO Max. Fans of CSI: Bakersfield can certainly wait.
It will air as long as cable pays the most for the tv rights…In this instance, that means Ted Turner.
I bet Prime wants a piece of that…
Ted Turner doesn’t run TBS/TNT, etc. Remember he sold to Time Warner in the 90’s, then they did that disaster of a merger with AOL. Then became Warner Brothers Discovery, now it looks like it will be part of Paramount.
The game rotates between CBS and TBS each year until 2032.
Almost everyone in the country gets TBS and TNT. Almost every cable and streaming package carries it. No sports fans live by rabbit ears alone. Airing on a broadcast channel lends some gravitas, but makes little difference.
