Question about SOPRANOS schedule on HBO...

[LuvTigger]

I've recently become a Soprano addict...so far, I've rented the first and second seasons on DVD. Third season isn't in Blockbuster yet, and so far I've been too cheap to buy it (though I'm thinking about getting a used set on Ebay or Amazon then resell). I've seen a couple of episodes of the current season (including tonight's).

When I looked at our local TV listings, tonight's episode said "new" next to it. I also noticed that it was listed on Tuesday and Wednesday nights this week (without the "new"), so I'm wondering if there's any rhyme or reason to the scheduling? I know after tonight's episode it said that it would show again on Monday night, but I'm wondering if the Tuesday and Wednesday nights are reruns, and from when? The third season, or the current one?

If anyone can explain the scheduling to me, I'd appreciate it! (I'm a little confused watching the current episodes without having seen any of the third season!)

Is this helpful at all? I have never seen it, but this may help.

Dan, I swear you are the smartest man on the DIS!!!

I was disappointed in the results though, according to the schedule on that site, they're all the same episode!

But thank you for steering me in the right direction!

Ok, here's how it works:

It's currently season 4.

New episodes are shown on Sunday. They reshow that episode during the week. So if they broadcast epsiode #4 for the first time on Sunday, when it's on on Tuesday, it's episode #4.

Our blockbuster had the season 3 DVDs out a few weeks before this season started. If the closest one doesn't have it, you may want to check the next closest one. On the blockbuster website you can type in a title & your zipcode & find out which ones within a certain mileage have the title.
