So, I was channel-surfing tonight and came upon some movie (“Hitch”) on TBS. I then flipped to the next channel, TNT, and saw the same movie playing. I went back and forth and figured out the TBS feed was about a half-second ahead of TNT. I would like to see “Hitch” but I’d rather do it later because I hate starting movies from the middle. I also don’t want to watch it on TV because the videophile in me is a stickler for the widescreen versions of movies and strays away from fullscreen versions unless there is no other choice. Also, the girl Kevin James is going after is named Allegra?!?
UPDATE: Here is a camera phone shot from the TNT airing:
From “Hitch” to First Pitch on TNT! Back when TBS & TNT showed “Hitch” simultaneously, I watched the 2nd half. So tonight I start watching the beginning of it on TNT when, after 30 minutes, this guy comes on & says, “Since the Twins/Yankees playoff game on TBS isn’t over yet (it’s 3-3, bottom of the 9th) we’re pre-empting “Hitch” to show the start of the Angels/ game! When the 1st game is over, we’ll move the other one back to TBS, then give you back “Hitch”! A reverse “Heidi Bowl”!
