Trying to determine if my show's air date has changed...

#1 Post by TexasMommy » Tue Dec 30, 2008 2:09 am

Hello all!

I have been taking a break from all things "Millionaire" for the past couple of months (except for the occasional visit to the Bored to read some posts when I have the chance) but now that my show is suppose to be airing in a couple of weeks, the anticipation is building by the hour! You guys may have addressed this already in previous posts but does anyone know if they are on schedule with the show's air dates or if they have gone out of order at all? From reading prior posts from people that were on the show before this season, I understand that flipping shows out of sequence was a regular occurrence, however, with the ATE lifeline, it seems it would be a lot more difficult to do this now. The reason I'm curious about this is because I was told my air dates would be Jan. 12th and 13th but my husband and I sat in the audience for the week of shows taped the day before I was to be on, and then I sat in the greenroom for the entire next day, another week of shows. On December 12th, the last day they aired a new show, the lady that ended the show in the hot seat was the first one in the hot seat on the day my husband and I were in the audience, sooo, based on my expert analysis of the situation, it would appear that my show could be pushed out another week, and that's only if they start airing new shows again next Monday, Jan. 5th.

Since the majority of you are more intelligent than I am, ( :P ) do any of you have any additional knowledge to interject regarding this matter? Winnamil, Frogman, and other current season contestants: did they email you a week and a half prior to your air date or didn't they? (sorry if you have answered this!) I will likely email the publicist soon if I can locate her information, but I thought I would ask all of you REAL experts first!

And.... I don't think I ever posted my real name so for those who plan on watching my "15 Minutes of Fame", TexasMommy = Kristin Patton :shock:

My fathers episode of Millionaire is also set to air the week of Jan 12th. He got bumped twice. He original tape date was originally July 25th, but he got a call just two days before his tape date telling him that he had been bumped to Sept 4th. I sat in the audience for the Sept 4th taping and he never made it into the hotseat. That day the only got through five contestants and also they had a guest host filling in for Meredith. His new tape date was Sept 24th and he ended up being the second contestant for the show.

Taking a break?

You got the Happy Card. You got The Call. You sat in the Hot Seat and are waiting for your episode to air and for your check to arrive 30 days after that and you've been taking a break!? :roll:




I don't have an answer to your questions, but I'd suggest you e-mail the publicist.
