When it says the time is 8/7c. That means that it airs on the Eastern Time Zone at 8pm, and on the central Time Zone at 7pm. Because the difference is 1 hour, the show will air at the exact same time, but the clocks will be different depending on where you are. Its so networks dont have to pay for a new scheduling and marketing program everytime they broadcast in another timezone. If you were to watch tv in California, most would say 8/9m. meaning 8pm in california, 9pm in Mountain timezone.



so if its 8pm in Eastern Time Zone (New York) then it would be 1am in London. But that only works if your are broadcasting directly to London from New York. Stations dont do that and people only work around that by watching tv through the internet (which works in real time).



Otherwise you will have to check local listing for when your show airs locally. And if you want to find it online (legally) you'll have to wait at least a day for the program to show up.

the united kingdom - Fawlty Towers, Little Britain, Monty Python, Catherine Tate, in basic terms Fools and Horses, Lee Evans, French and Saunders, unluckily Smith and Jones, no longer the 9 O'Clock information, classic Morecambe and clever, Peter sellers, Dudley Moore, Steptoe and Son, and so on. and so on. i think of the united kingdom is greater consistently humorous, even nevertheless there are a number of humorous US shows - they have a tendency to be long-working sitcoms, Cheers, friends, and so on.
