Does anyone else think it's inappropriate that ABC.....?

Question

...that ABC aired the "Extreme Makeover Home Edition" episode about rebuilding New Orleans after Katrina, on the eve of a potentially catastrophic Gustav? or do you think it's just a programming scheduling coincidence? thanks.

Answer 1

I think they have to get their schedule out a week or so in advance for TV Guide and others that publish their schedule. A week ago they could not have known. Which left them with the option of a last minute cancellation or airing it.

Answer 2

I imagine they had it scheduled for this date, because today is the 3rd anniversary of Katrina hitting New Orleans. That Gustav is coming in is the coincidence.

Answer 3

It was not aired on ABC right before Gustav came in on purpose. Like someone else said ABC schedules what they will air at least a week in advance. Otherwise, they may have done it in order to show how you can rebuild your life after a horrible disaster. Either way... :)

Answer 4

oh i think its just a coincidence  

Answer 5

Mere coincidence, probably..
