[edit] UK

In the UK, 'Network Change' is the term currently being used by the government for an extensive long-term programme of alterations to the Post Office network, it has been a large topic of media discussion in the UK and will likely continue to be for some time, could this article be edited to include some reference to it?

[edit] Types

We should divide this list into several categories, as the change in networks can be entirely different. I would propose:

  • Shows that were canceled by one network, only to be picked up by another (especially the ABC/NBC/CBS/FOX to UPN/WB ones)
  • Moves between different channels within one broadcasting company
  • Sporting events whose broadcasting rights tend to move often

Also, this list needs some checking through. Monk, for instance, never aired an episode on ABC. -- χγʒ͡ʒγʋᾳ (talk) 06:23, 9 April 2008 (UTC)
