US TV Movies week of Dec 28, 2003

As I said I'm changing the way I'm doing this. This is obviously a work-in-progress at this point.  There are still some formatting problems.

I might consider posting this information to a web page and just provide a link here in the forum. Someone offered that suggestion this last week and it might be a good one. What would the concensus on that be?

In the near future I intend to clean up the formatting and I'm considering adding some more information such as character names and ages. I may also change the way I produce my reports writing them out with Visual Basic instead of using the built in report generator which is causing some of the formatting problems.

Please feel free to offer your feed back. Particularly on the type of information that I'm providing. Too much?

One thing that irks me is that Noon and Midnight are being output as 12:00AM and 12:00PM. This is one of my pet peeves as both of those are impossible times. AM and PM indicate before and after Noon respectively, so there can be no such thing as 12AM or PM. Oh well, I'm sure you all can figure it out.

By the way, the forum script here is much nicer than at BOYS.  Over there it really screws with the formatting of my report.

As usual, these are US non-pay-for TV movies. All times are Eastern.

Well, bug report number one:  I see that some of the synopses are being truncated.  I'll have to look into that.

Well, I certainly like the information provided here.  Grin

I'll admit that I did have to scroll back up to see what day I was on a couple of times, so it's not as easy to read and remember now as it was before.  It's still the best TV Guide around, though!   Grin

Thanks for the great work, Cam!

Love,
Sir J

How about something like this, since we know already the date for the week we're looking at:

Three Wishes; TNT; 2:30:00 AM, Sun

..only if that doesn't lead to more confusion with midnite and noon listings.  Smiley  I know in my local listings they refer to 2AM Monday as 'late Sunday.' grrr. (oh, ok - I forgot you list 2 different Sundays. Guess you would need a date, at least for Sundays)

But as it stands your format and listings are even better.  Huge thanks again!

('The Window' with young Bobby Driscoll is one I've been trying to catch for ages.  Thanks!)
