Al Franken Radio Show to Be on Cable TV

By FRAZIER MOORE

NEW YORK - Satirist-commentator Al Franken will return to his TV roots next month when his radio show begins appearing on cable's Sundance Channel.

Beginning Sept. 7, "The Al Franken Show," heard live each weekday from noon to 3 p.m. Eastern on Air America Radio, will go on display in a one-hour edition on Sundance each night at 11:30 p.m. and 2:30 a.m., executives at both networks told The Associated Press on Monday.

2. I want Trio!
Their line-up and programming is pretty cool, but my cable company won't pick it up! Fuckin' Cablevision!

4. Trio showed my mother the car a while back
and Jerry Van Dyke used to be TALL!

(where else can you see Rowan and Martins Laugh in?)

3. I was going to cut back on costs
but I would lose sundance if I go to regular cable.

WOW, I could actually watch Al's show in the morning before I go to work. I also have Sundance West, which means there will be a rebroadcast at 2:30am EST and then 6:30am EST on Sundance West

6. The only problem
The only problem I have with digital cable is that Comcast has a bad habit of suddenly shutting off - hi-speed internet and TV alike.
