Yep, right after I had access to the server, I jumped in and began updating.
WRCB AE's now in MediaOffice simply should save their work, close MediaOffice, then re-open to see the new programs and ratings.

The Voice Premieres Tuesday, April 26th
Looks like Tuesdays during May Sweeps will feature an hour of The Voice, followed by 2 hours of The Biggest Loser.
We're having a bit of trouble reaching the Bomgar client in Chattanooga, so my clients there will have to wait a few hours for this to show up in inventory. IT @ ODI has been notified.

WRCB Has NBC Sports Updated.. Does Your Station?
The weekend of June 11th and 12th has been totally changed, including the hiatus of NBC Evening News on the 11th.
In the last 24 hours, twelve different NBC Sports programs in the next 4 months were added, cancelled or changed dates and/or time periods. It's easy enough to find out what NBC has done.
What's not easy is keeping up to date with the almost countless changes (ok, if you want to count, just look at the archives here.. I'm on vacation now)
For real broadcasters, there's also the issue of getting the inventory changed ASAP, plus creating and publishing updated audience estimates with new rationale.
WRCB can print out new Sports Planners today. If you wish your NBC station could, just ask your OneDomain rep, or give me a call.

Triple Crown Returns to NBC; June Sports Changes Announced
Now that NBcomcast has Versus to use as it's own ESPN-like sports channel, I'm going to guess we'll see a lot more packages of sports split over both NBC and Versus, with less popular programs airing on cable only.
Here's the reason a whole bunch of sports specials on 6/11 & 6/12 are being rescheduled:

ODI Offices Closed Monday for Presidents Day
Officially, I'm on vacation through the end of next week, but "vacation" is a bit fuzzy when you work from home AND have no back-up. My RDRx clients in Chattanooga will have to wait as much as ONE FULL DAY for updates during this time.

We Love You, Maria.....
It's not the usual day a guy can look at a computer screen at his home office, and sigh and say out loud (presumably to himself) "I love you, Maria.." and then have his wife walk up from behind, and hear her say "yeah, I loved working with her, too." (she was an GE FMP and worked with Maria for about 6 years)
Without Maria's kind guidance, most NBC stations would be totally SOL re: NBC Sports. If you don't know which Maria we're talking about, you aren't an NBC affiliate.
If you are an NBC affiliate, and don't have an RD or RDRx service, you're missing out on hundreds of sports events each year. Give your OneDomain rep a call and we can get you on the road to actually selling the little gems Maria provides.

Tons of Prime Changes Announced
We’re making a few changes to our 1st and 2nd Quarter program schedules, plus booking a few slots in the summer months on a couple of nights.
Holy Poop.... lots of changes coming.
Premiere RDRx clients will have updated inventory, estimates and a brand new Master Planner today.
Those NBC stations who don't have these ready by tomorrow morning (for example, stations without either an RD, a very dedicated employee or RDRx) are simply wasting their time selling or scheduling makegoods until no longer using bad info.
If you are a OneDomain NBC station, and want help, just email. I'm right here.
