For some reason yet to be revealed, ION has pushed back the airing of
The Color of Magic to sometime early in 2009.  I don't know if they
decided it wasn't wise to go up against the 24 movie or what, but
after putting out a press release for Nov 23rd, they changed their
minds and no longer have it scheduled.  They are repairing Hogfather
next Sunday, November 30th, at 7 pm ET/PT, though, for those who
missed it previously or haven't picked up the DVD.  I was hoping that
TCOM airing in the same calendar year  in both the US and the UK would
give it a better shot at award nominations.  Hogfather got Hugo
nominations two years in a row but didn't make the final ballot either
time.
