There has to be a way.....

Ok, now maybe this is just me watching way too much television; partly because I work from home and there isn't much else to do between calls lol. Or maybe I just watch way too many cartoons. But I have noticed that many the Turner Networks have gotten lazy when it comes to showing Seth McFarlane's shows. If you have enough time, have cable, and just happen to like the show, you will notice that the same episode of Family Guy will actually play several times throughout the week. I'm not talking about the newly released episode of Family Guy, which plays first on Fox, then is shown a bit more explicitly on Adult Swim on Monday of the next week (yep, I watch that much TV lol). This is something I expect and actually like, because it gives me a chance to watch it again if I miss it first run. I'm speaking of the reruns. You'll see an episode of FG on TBS one day, and within the same week it will play on Cartoon Network and maybe even on Fox late night. Its even worse with American Dad. Today I watched an episode of AD this afternoon before I went to lunch on TBS; this same episode was shown this evening on Cartoon Networks Adult swim! Come on are you even trying??? Maybe its asking a bit much, but dangit Ted Turner owns every last network that Seth's shows are shown on (say that 3 times fast lol), and while AD may fall shy of this, isn't there enough dang episodes of FG to not show the same episode twice among all the networks in a region? I've never claimed to be good at math, but there's an equation in there somewhere, and I believe there's a way to work it out. So tell me, have you noticed how lazy Turner's programming execs are being, or is it just me being nerdy lol? Is it mathematically possible to not show an episode twice during the week across all Turner stations it currently shows, or am I just way off base?
