It currently isn't on here in wollongong so is anyone else getting it on tv yet?? stupid tv guides.. that really annoys me that tv stations can't get their advertised times right!!

yeahi got that same comedy show.... the online tv guides all say 12:00 to 1:00 is shuttle launch. Think TV has realised that a launch is boring until a diaster happens, then its NEWS worth reporting on/showing. Bet they only have a 30min segment on it tonight!

just noticed that channel 9 is also going to be doing footage from 12:30, so if prime doesn't do anything, will be switching over to 9.
