I have noticed that several of the primetime shows on TNT and USA networks now show an airtime of 1:01 or 1:02 the first time they are broadcast. But then the repeats of the show during the ensuing week vary, sometimes listed as 1:00, sometimes as the slightly longer airtime. Does anyone know if the show's content is actually any different? Or are we talking about an extra minute or two of ads? My list is not intended to be exhaustive, but I've noticed this with Rizzoli & Isles, Suits, Covert Affairs and Perception; I'm sure there are others.
