    Plus, this adds so much to what he can do and say. TBS is much more lenient than FOX or NBC ever would have been.

    TBS Superstation yeah, based out of Atlanta owned by Ted Turner had WCW Saturday Night at 6:05 for 21 years... I'm aware.

    I mean like a year ago they changed the name to "PeachtreeTV" I just never realised they changed it back again

    Upon further inspection, the specific Atlanta station was renamed PeachtreeTV but still has TBS programming and the Atlanta one is the one we get in Canaduh.

    I was going to say. . . I know I haven't watched a lot of TBS other than Lopez Tonight but I've never heard of Peachtree. I wonder if they will change it everywhere sooner or later.

    In late June 2007, Turner Broadcasting announced that WTBS would change call letters and become WPCH-TV, and would be branded as Peachtree TV. According to Turner, the new channel 17 would offer sitcoms and movies geared specifically toward an Atlanta audience. The new station would also broadcast 45 Atlanta Braves baseball games next season. The change occurred on October 1. In addition, the channel 17 change allowed Atlanta cable and satellite television viewers, for the first time since the early 1980s, to receive the national TBS signal as of that date.[3] Most cable and satellite companies previously carried WTBS's local Atlanta signal instead of the national TBS channel. Following the change, cable systems in Canada were legally required to continue carrying the local Peachtree TV signal, instead of switching to the national TBS feed.[4]

    I wonder what an Atlanta based audience enjoys watching on top of Braves games. Is it like BET number 2?

    The Office/Friends/Friends/Seinfeld/House of Payne/Seinfeld/Law and Order/My Name is Earl is what is on or coming up.

    I'm guessing House of Payne has black people.

    Well he wasn't able to get a show till September, so getting one in November isn't bad. I'm surprised it was this soon.
