SABC3's hilarious comedy shuffle

What I Like About You 2
 
You won't be surprised to hear that welfare TV has delivered yet another sudden and unexplained Primetime schedule change that impacts on various nights of the week.

After the slew of changes that happened in October, SABC3 has made changes to the schedule yet again, with various comedy titles changing times to air on different nights: from this Monday (7 November 2011).

Season 2 of the comedy series What I Like About You replaces 30 Rock 3 on Monday (7 November), in the 18h30 timeslot. Instead of only being on Mondays, it'll be on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays at the same time.

As a result, 30 Rock and the comedies that have been airing in the 18h30 Tuesday and Wednesday timeslot change times and days too.

These are the shows affected:
  • 30 Rock 3 moves from Monday at 18h30 to Monday at 21h40.
  • Nurse Jackie moves from Monday at 21h40 to Friday at 21h30
  • Outsourced moves from Tuesday at 18h30 to Thursday at 20h00.
  • The final episode of Accidentally on Purpose moves from Wednesday at 18h30 to Thursday at 20h30. Two and a Half Men 6 replaces it on Thursday, 17 November at 20h30.
Is it a good idea to have the same comedy on three nights of the week or is it better to have variety? Is it one re-shuffle too many after all the time swapping in October? Sound off below.

The new changes are great! I will be looking forward to Thursdays, and am glad they moved that Nurse Jackie, it doesn't really entertain me. At least 30 Rock is better.
