Super Bowl Update

WHAS11 will be airing the University of Louisville/Bellarmine exhibition game live at 7 p.m. ET tonight, and that means tonight's ABC primetime programs will air later tonight following the game.

Episodes of The Middle and The Neighbors will be moved to air overnight after Jimmy Kimmel Live. The Middle will air at 1:05 a.m. ET and The Neighbors will air at 1:35.

Modern Family, Suburgatory and Nashville will air in their entirety immediately after the game.

Louisville police are on the hunt for a man who broke into a WDRB news van at Riverfront Park late last month and stole credit cards and other items belonging to one of the station's reporters.  WDRB reports that the man used the cards at several locations in Louisville and Southern Indiana, and you can find information and photos of the suspect at their website.

ABC is said to be switching two of its shows on Wednesday nights this fall.  Returning Suburgatory and freshman comedy The Neighbors will swap timeslots, with Suburgatory moving to 8:30 p.m. CT and The Neighbors, which was to air at that time, moving to 7:30 p.m. CT. [Deadline Hollywood]

As I told you yesterday, the Senate Commerce Committee is opening a hearing to examine the 20-year-old Cable Act, and like most things in Washington, it could get ugly.  On one side, you have the folks who don't seem to mind people losing channels, like Sen. Jim DeMint (R-S.C.), who said, “We should remove unnecessary government interference from a mature and increasingly competitive video marketplace,” and on the other, folks like Sen. John Kerry (D-Mass.), who are tired of the repeated blackouts when companies can't reach new agreements.  “Playing games of chicken during college bowl games, the World Series or the Oscars just seems like it’s the new norm,” Kerry said. “Can’t we do better than that?” [Politico]
