This article is incredibly US-centric! — Preceding unsigned comment added by 194.83.163.140 (talk) 12:12, 10 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]

TiVo (possibly other DVR usage for content)

I do not believe this is the case any longer, but somebody finding some citable sources for the era when DVRs (I know TiVo did this) used Graveyard hours to transmit keyed video to the units for things like ads and other video content would add a fairly novel use of these hours. 74.240.193.18 (talk) 06:03, 10 September 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Proposed merge with Friday night death slot

Notable or not, this topic is solely US-centric. Well... the introduction explains it, but the fact that the topic is US-centric makes the article vulnerable to unreferenced examples and original research. Remove all examples, and you get a short entry about the topic. I don't think UK has problems with Friday TV scheduling as much as US. The US Friday programming may be adequately explained in "graveyard slot" article. George Ho (talk) 23:30, 15 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]

I don't see how being US-centric makes it less notable, since we have many many notable US-centric articles. The graveyard slot is also generally any day between 2:00 AM and 6:00 AM (as opposed to Friday only 8:00 PM and 11:00 PM) and does not lead to cancellation as suggested with Friday night death slot. We also multiple secondary and tertiary sources for "Friday night death slot" so there is no issue with original research. — Hasdi Bravo • 18:35, 17 June 2015 (UTC)[reply]
