I have a satellite so I went onto the television guide to set the PVR to record tonight's show and on CBS it says there is a football game. No mention of Big Brother being on tonight (though it is listed in my television listings that comes with my newspaper). I went to the Canadian channel that picks up the show at the same time and Big Brother is listed for 8pm EST. So I set my PVR from that station. Does anyone else see that there is a football game on CBS tonight starting at 7:30? Will Big Brother be on at all tonight??? Egads! It better be.

I checked mine too after I read the boards over on CBS.com saying that is the real reason it is pre recorded. Shows BB coming on at 8 pm EST no talk of a game at all.Actually it shows no game at all. If the game comes on I will have to stay up until it's over for when BB does come on so I can record it,because it will probably be under a different name. I am confused as well and going to be quite upset if there isn't going to be a show til like after midnight cuz BBAD comes on then so i will already know most of it but with the shows on CBS you get to see the DR stuff.

I scrolled past the football game on my guide and there is no mention of Big Brother. I checked BEFORE the game, and still no mention. Now, mind you, the guide has been known to be screwed up in the past. Let's just hope this is another one of my satellite's stupid mistakes.

I checked mine and also had the neighbors check theirs since we have different cable companys and there is no mention of football on our TVs at all. I am confused about the whole thing and the more I read on the BB boards over there the more confused I get. I even heard the feeds will be blacked out during that time. What a jab in the face to all us loyal and tons of paying fans.

I also checked my listings. I don't see a football game. Perhaps it depends if your local team is playing today. I'm in the NY/NJ area. Hopefully there won't be any!!! Usually they would put it on after the game. Of course, it won't be listed, so can't set up DVR. Guess we'll find out at 8pm. Can't wait to see Jeff step up!!!

I missed the Big Brother show the other night. I am on Estern Standard time also and live in the United States. I am not sure if it was on or not. I hope you got it fixed and got to see it though.

Well, since we weren't home we PVR'd the show from the Canadian network that airs the show. My kids watched the PVR when we got home. My husband and I turned to a Western (Edmonton) channel and watched it at 11pm EST.
