I just finished watching the SC Parade of Champions rerun on CTV and they listed the different hours and coverage of the upcoming year. But since I was watching it on a later time zone I was half-asleep and missed most of it. Did anyone catch it?

To my understanding they're showing highlights of the Junior Grand Prix Final. When?

And it also seems most, if not all, of the Canadian Championships will be on TSN rather than CTV. :?? I'm just glad we finally got satellite last Christmas so I will be able to catch it, but CTV has the different time zones so it's easier for my schedule (my other family members love watching their sappy dramas around prime time and I watch skating later when I catch it on a west-coast time zone). Oh well. They're just going to have to give it up the TV for me this one weekend.

So yes, any info on the exact schedule for TSN/CTV's coverage for 2005 would be great. I looked it up on their website but only had the date for the rerun up. :frus:

2004 ISU Junior Grand Prix Final Saturday, January 8 1:00 pm - 3:00 pm eastern on TSN.

For the other dates for 2005, I don't know them since I didn't watch the broadcast yesterday.

For the past few years they've done it that way -- TSN for the Tues-Thurs broadcasts, then CTV for Fri-Sun. It is unusual, though, that they don't have the broadcast schedule up yet, particularly when the event starts in less than 3 weeks. In the past, though, it's been roughly live or shortly after live for the TSN broadcasts; if you want to view the event schedule you can do so here.

I'll post the broadcast schedule as soon as I see it if no one else does so first.

I'm so frustrated at TSN!!! They changed the time for the Junior Grand Prix coverage from 1:00 to noon. My PVR wound up missing the first hour of it!

I thought they were repeating it Thursday and Saturday but apparently they'll be showing the long programs then.

Does anyone have this on DVD? Maybe we can work something out.
