Default NBC is HORRIBLE

They just played a commercial giving away the winner of the last match WHILE it was still being played, and they also advertised the dvd which has a cover that totally gives away the final pairing. Why don't they just announce the winner now so no one will watch?

That does suck.

I wish I could have seen more hands overall. What with the huge number of commercials and all the puff pieces, you really didn't see many hands in that hour and a half. Very few.

the better time slot issue was addressed awhile back... someone emailed the producer who wrote back that this was a trial for nbc... if people watch on nbc, on cnbc, buy the dvd, seem to like it etc then nbc will expand coverage next year... and get a more consistent time slot... tomorrow 1-3 ET

They did the same thing with The Contender Finale. The final bout is live on Tuesday, but the episode tonight is supposed to decide who is in it, but all of the ads for the finale make it pretty obvious who wins tonight.

They did that once before on the Contender, the episode which ended on the cliffhanger of who was going to be voted back in, then the next minute you see a preview of the next show with Ahmed standing in the background.
