Automation can't possibly go wrong


These were among the local commercials inserted by my cable system during ABC Family's broadcast of the Diamondbacks-Cardinals game tonight:

  • A promo for "Life with Bonnie," airing on ABC at 9:00 Tuesdays (this aired at about 8:50, I guess to try to attract people who were bored of the baseball game already)

  • An ad for the Orange County Susan G. Komen Race for the Cure, taking place on Sunday, September 22, 2002 (and I guess this one was supposed to attract time travelers)

Also, at 11:00 exactly, ABC Family mistakenly cut away from the game to "Growing Pains" for about 30 seconds. Fine, understandable, except that ABC Family doesn't show "Growing Pains" at 11:00 on its west coast feed, or 2:00 on its east coast feed, or at any time on its schedule. When the game actually ended a few minutes later, they joined "Whose Line Is It Anyway?" already in progress.
