Channel 4 & 4seven: Schedule Status & Listings  27th November to 22nd December 2023

SEASON RIGHTS: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 16, 17, 18, 19, 23, 24, 25, 28, 29, 30, 31 LISTINGS SOURCE: Channel4.com, Digiguide Channel 4 have moved their longstanding weekday 6pm slot to 6:30pm - and it's currently home to the terrestrial premiere of season 31. Due to content concerns, "Highway to Well" gets a late-night premieres after midnight on Thurs 30th. I recommend perusing Christopher Wickham's assessment of what they might see fit to cut from the remainder of the run. There are a few days where episodes are bumped for sports (or episodes of Four in a Bed that have been bumped by sports) - see below for details. Once the season 31 run wraps up, season 17 follows. On weekend mornings and lunchtimes on C4, we get season 5 and season 29 - see the full schedules below for slot times. Following that, they begin to layer in Christmas episodes from Sunday 3rd.. fuller festive details coming next update. Nothing over on 4seven at the moment. Episodes starting between midnight and 5:30am are listed as part of the previous day's schedule, similar to most print TV guides. Note that all episodes that air on Channel 4 are simulcast on Channel 4 HD and can be viewed one hour later on their timeshift service, Channel 4 +1.

RTÉ2: Schedule Status & Listings  27th November to 22nd December 2023

SEASON RIGHTS: 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 11, 12, 16, 17, 18, 19, 23, 24, 25, 28, 29, 30, 31 LISTINGS SOURCE: RadioTimes.com, Digiguide RTÉ2 are currently airing season 25 in the usual 4:30pm weekday slot, returning after some time with Sky. Season 19 follows. The more exciting news is that the Irish terrestrial premiere of season 31 has begun. For now, however, it's just one episode per week, Fridays at 6pm (in addition to the usual 4:30pm slot) - and instead of getting "Treehouse of Horror XXX" on the 8th, it looks like they're jumping back to S25's "Homerland".. As usual, some episodes are skipped due to content concerns (or other reasons).

Sky Showcase: Schedule Status & Complete Listings  27th November to 22nd December 2023

SEASON RIGHTS: 1, 7, 8, 9, 10, 13, 14, 15, 20, 21, 22, 26, 27, 32, 33, 34, 35 LISTINGS SOURCE: Digiguide Sky Showcase have, for now, (mostly) settled on broadcasting four episodes a weeknight, from 5pm to 6pm and then 7pm to 8pm. The Fresh Prince of Bel-Air occupies the 6pm hour. Weekends are less predictable, but we usually get a decent number of episodes - usually between four and eight a day, spread across the morning, afternoon and evening. Currently airing: season 7, in two concurrent runs - largely, that's one run in the 5:30pm, 7pm or 7:30pm weekday slots, and a repeat either in a 5pm weekday slot, or on the weekend. Following that, it's our first regular-timeslot run of season 34, and then season 8. Christmas mode kicks in from Monday 18th - I'll have more on that for you next time, but for the 18th through the 22nd, we're looking at season 8 doubles in the AM, and festive-themed episodes in the afternoon. Full details coming soon. No word yet on season 35, which has kicked off in the US - presumably we're looking at the traditional Christmastime premiere here, so hopefully we will have some news soon. As always, some episodes deemed unsuitable for daytime broadcast are skipped, and some episodes don't get a second run depending on Sky's weekend schedule. Note that episodes starting between midnight and 5:30am are listed as part of the previous day's schedule, similar to most print TV guides.
