new series, old series - 08:37 AM
(filed under 'general')

why do they promise a new series of something on tv & then play only a few of them before going back to an old series again?

we usually rarely watch tv here, but just lately smiley's been enjoying abc kids tv in the morning.

last week they advertised that they were putting on a new series of sesame street. they had new oening credits & the song was slightly different, etc. but one of the ones earlier this week i was sure we'd seen a few weeks ago.

just now i saw the opening credits & it's an earlier one again!

isn't that called false advertising?

Just a guess...

Maybe something to do with that writer's strike?

maybe there runing out of new idea's. so they preplay old stuff. as filler. then play the new stuff just once. then back to the old stuff.
