! Wrong Episode


I'm watching it right now and I believe they are airing the wrong episode. The last episode was the 3rd one with the Browns eliminated but this one is the one after they come back. I wanted to see the Fogal-bashing episode but they seem to have skipped it!

I know! I'm watching it right now too and I'm just confused. How could they have skipped an episode, or did they air that episode some other time?

Its on at 8, the one at 7 was from last week. So I am watching the new one where the Browns are back, the college grad girls decided to leave and now are in Boston!!!!! Air force in front

Where is Ross Bagley now?????

Right, there's a repeat of last week followed by a new episode on Mondays, and apparently a repeat again on Saturday. They were running trailers for "Don't Trust Thy Neighbor" but they aired "The Drinking Gourd" instead.

Even worse than the confusion (this is a linear show) is that at the start of the episode it showed what happened in the ep they skipped.

I wonder how this will affect the online/home challenge.

Wait a minute. Is it just Canada that's missing an episode? I suspect that it's not NBC that screwed up but Global (big surprise ).

confused in Canada here

I'm confused by your confusion. I'm in the U.S., and just finished the third episode (counting the two hour premiere as one episode). In the first episode, the young professionals were eliminated, the second the browns, and then in the third the grads left and the browns came back and then the hanlons were eliminated. As far as I know, the episode with the ambulance and the kayte(sp?) flipout are not for anothe week. New episodes premiere on Monday, right? So I don't understand the confusion.

I can tell you exactly what happens in the 'preview' that you saw.

They seriously skipped an episode in Canada!

reply

This is quite annoying but I think that it's a problem with the Canadian Network (Global) that is carrying the program here. They showed the episode where the Browns get eliminated, but they didn't show the episode where the Graduates bow out of the game and the dumb hillbillies Hanlons get eliminated.

reply

In Canada, Global skipped "Don't Trust Thy Neighbor", the episode where the Hanlons are eliminated, and aired "Follow the Drinking Gourd", the episode where nobody is eliminated (it's To Be Continued) instead. Canadians got screwed by a crappy Canadian network.

That's the confusion, Global skipped that episode you saw and showed the one you will see next week.

Probably never. If Global was so stupid that they couldn't figure out their mistake throughout the entire episode and did not fix it, then they will probably just air that one again next week. They may air this one next week but since the show is linear, it will still be ruined (even more so). I'm just going to download this week's episode in case they don't air it at all.

where can it be downloaded?

youtube or google video?

reply

I doubt either of those would have it. In fact it might not even be available for a little while.

the episode started with the preview of episode 3, then briefly went into episode 4, then went back to episode 3, so in the end they showed the right episode, but not after spoiling the whole thing

i had it recorded and i live in canada, not sure if i was recording on nbc or global though

You saw the fourth episode...which Global mistakenly aired before ever showing the third episode.

It is, the pilot was 2 hours long which technically makes it two episodes:

1/2 - Pilot (2 hours, Young Professionals gone)
3 - Bend the Light (Browns Gone)
4 - Don't Trust Thy Neighbor (Grads bow out, Browns return, Hanlons gone)
5 - Follow the Drinking Gourd (to be continued)

NP.

Oh and what happend was this past Monday when the rest of the world watched 4 - "Don't Trust Thy Neighbor", Canada (at least a large part of it) saw 5 - "Follow the Drinking Gourd" because Global aired the wrong episode, thus the confusion. I thought it was NBC that had screwed up but it wasn't, it was Global. I'm not sure what Global is going to do this Monday. Perhaps they'll air 4 in which case Canadian viewers will probably be even more confused than they were on Monday or they'll just run 5 again in which case Canadian viewers will be annoyed. Either way Canwest sucks.

That's very true. This isn't even a reality show because it's clearly scripted. The changes are disgusting because the networks don't seem to understand that people record things and the programs require some kind of consistency; they can't just keep moving things around like this. Worse still is when they put a show on a different day or even CHANNEL temporarily. I've even seen channels (Canwest garbage) put shows on early (7:30pm instead of 8:00pm) just so that they can air an extra show. That's why I call Canwest a broadcast whore. They do nasty things to the viewers to make more money.

As for the hot chicks, there is a whole team of Miss USA rejects. :)
