All the Ways the State of the Union Will Mess Up Tuesday Night TV
What will be preempted?
President Barack Obama will deliver his seventh State of the Union address Tuesday night at 9 p.m. ET. While exact details of Obama's speech remain unknown, what we do know is that it will totally mess your TV schedule.
The speech will be carried on all major networks and cable news channels from 9 to either 10:30 or 11 p.m. ET, depending on the channel. Obama's State of the Union will preempt the following:
ABC: Forever
CBS: NCIS: New Orleans and Person of Interest
Fox: New Girl and The Mindy Project
NBC: Marry Me, About a Boy and Chicago Fire
Repeats of Black-ish and Mike and Molly will air at 10:30/9:30c on ABC and CBS, respectively. The CW, which does not normally carry the State of the Union, will air a new episode of Supernatural at 9/8c as planned.
