Simsub If Necessary...But Not Necessarily Simsub..

 Again this evening no simsub on CTV, Global or CTV2.  The Masters Golf Tournament  was the culprit for much of this.  Of late Global has just been opting to stick to their regular schedule even when a sports event runs over on the US network.  This may work for Global since they have been enjoying a half hour jump on the CBS programming tonight. 

This year so far has been interesting.  We have been seeing CTV, CTV2 and Global having less simsub than normal in prime time, even through the week, and City TV and CHCH have a bit more.

Re: Simsub If Necessary...But Not Necessarily Simsub..

I posted about this roughly the same time you did, hence the duplication because I did not see yours at the time. And my observation was that perhaps simsub isn't as important as keeping a regular schedule. That's a big change from the past, where they'd do everything possible to keep it intact.
