[opendtv] Re: UFO report recap

Well they ran a few different ads over here in Philly.
Except for two breaks, every one had a TWO MINUTE infomercial (P.I.) 
spot and
although some of the spots were for national accounts, many were for 
regional and some local. 
Not whta I would expect commercial-wise on ABC during sweeps week
Nothing new in the show itself, just sort of a recap bringing us all up 
to date since 1947.
I wonder if the advertisers got a chance to see the show before they 
bought ads?
