1. My schedule says 8 P.M., except for FOX which is at 9 P.M. ...

... cause of some baseball game or something...

And apparently it is not going to be on ABC.

ABC only major TV network not airing Obama infomercial

It initially balked at the requested time slot but relented too late. The commercial will run on CBS, NBC, Fox and Univision tonight.

Democratic presidential nominee Barack Obama's half-hour campaign commercial is scheduled to run tonight on all of the major television networks -- except ABC.

The senator from Illinois this month arranged to buy tonight's 8 p.m. to 8:30 p.m. slot on CBS, NBC and Spanish-language network Univision. Fox Broadcasting joined the field after Major League Baseball agreed to delay the start time of tonight's World Series game.

Walt Disney Co.-owned ABC, however, initially balked at selling its 8 p.m. slot, saying it didn't want to bump its regularly scheduled series, "Pushing Daisies," even though the whimsical show has been struggling in the ratings.

ABC executives said the earlier decision not to accept the Obama infomercial was due to the problem of filling the second half-hour of the 8 p.m. to 9 p.m. time period -- and not for political reasons.

6. I am a BIG fan of Pushing Daisies

and I get why ABC didn't get the infomercial.
