I think A&E hates me?!

Hello fellow Tv.commers...how's it? Going here, could be better could be worse I guess. Talk about blah blah blah boring. Summer is here but the typical summer weather isn't...yet. The rain has made it feel more like April or May than the middle of June. The jet stream is supposed to shift a bit north today, bringing up some of the record heat from the south. At least my kids can get some use out of the pool finally, if the water isn't still freezing.

On the Tv.com front, are any other editors noticing a massive headache with scheduling of their shows? Maybe I should be more specific, A&E shows editors. I edit several shows for A&E and frankly they are being a huge pain this year. They have changed the way they do things, which is understandable and I can cope...but they keep changing their minds on what they are going to show. It has gotten so bad with a couple shows that I have to wait until the day before it airs to add it to the site. In turn that makes me feel always behind and more rushed to add it in. I don't like that at all. Maybe they have some management changes and things are still ironing out, maybe it will settle down soon...or this is the new normal.

Oh, I have a funny from my son. He is a riot I tell ya. So I was sitting in the living room watching some TV. He comes up the hallway from his room and rubbing his back, in a way that it made me think his back was hurting. So I asked him and he said it was bothering him some. So I asked if he thought he had slept wrong. He said it was possible but he thought it could be his bed. He then proceeded to tell me that he thought he needed a new bed. I was shocked but not really surprised, because in all fairness he might need a new one. I told him ok, then asked what he had in mind. With the straightest face possible, he politely told me he thinks he needs one of those Tempur-Pedic beds. I was in shock and caught off guard, and then I started laughing. He just grinned. There really is no telling what they will come up with.

Do I have anything else...ummmm yeah...but I will wait till next time. So we shall wrap up this blog. Thanks for stopping.

Later Taters!!

Stu...

I feel you on A&E. I just think I have the show schedule sorted out so I can watch Dog, Intervention and such and then all of a sudden something else is on. Be happy it still feels like April. The "Official" Temp here in lovely Florida is 96(f) with a heat index of 107(f). I tell ya my air conditioner needs and air conditioner. You son is just too funny. But what ever you do don't get a sleep number bed. Lindsay Wagner is still bionic and that's why she can sleep on one. Have a great week.

Hey Scott, I am glad to know it is not just me with A&E. It is driving me nuts. The Fist 48 is on a new night and a new time, starting tonight. Dog is doing a three part hunt, which is kinda cool. I am about to pull my hair out with them. Maybe it will be sorted soon. Kiddo needs a new bed, but I don't think I will getting him a Sleep Number either. We are expected to get the 95(f)+ temps in the next few days. Sigh. You have a great week too!!

Hi Stu! I've noticed A&E has been running shows in mini-marathons at times off and on over the last few months and this probably wreaks havoc with shows they carry. It's a growing trend with specialty channels (Spike TV does the same from time to time and up here, a retro toon channel ran the old Transformers show in a 24hr marathon). I'd ask ya what y'all consider freezing weather down there but, ummm, nahhh......all I know is round here, it's getting close to local strawberry season......have a good week!

Hi Mari, how are you friend? Yeah they are doing that a lot on other stations around here too. Makes it frustrating for sure on my end. Freezing, well if it drops below 20(f) that is when I start complaining that it is cold. Ohhhhhhhhhhhh strawberries...that makes me think of strawberry short cake. Yum yum!! You have a good week too!!

Well, I am happy that I don't have to worry about that yet, with the two Discovery shows that I edited. Also with the rain, I know how you feel, up here in the Northeast we are getting it as well. The good thing about is the fact at night I don't need to put on the A.C.

Did TV.com staff and move and start working for A&E maybe?

Hola Chica,

Sorry you're still having trouble with A&E. Wanna go kick some ass? Road trip!!

It's raining here again...hopefully it stops a little later, or I'm gonna get extremely wet picking up my car.

The kiddo is funny!! Good luck with the bed hunt.

Oh yeah, save your dirty stories for next week. Lol. Hehehe...tempur-pedic bed. Funny stuff! My little brothers don't do stuff like that anymore, they're getting too old! Oh and Al, it's even weird here in LA...it's always cloudy, and often cold! Blah.

Hey Minarvia, when the official site can make it easy on us...I am all for it.





Hey jekyll, it is possible. If anyone comes up MIA here, we should look there.





Hey Newbie, yeah they just like to torture me. It is like a mind game. Rain stinks for sure. Oh bed hunting should be an adventure.





Hey Ed, welcome back from 'fabulous Las Vegas' first...totally jealous...second glad you had a good time. Oh man I could post a story a day with what my kids come up with.
