TV Schedule randomized now?
The first week (IRL time) or so that I was playing the game, the TV seemed to follow the 6am / 12pm / 6pm schedule (game time) that's on the wiki and Reddit, but it seems like in the last couple days (IRL) this has changed. (Maybe the recent beta patch, that added playable VHS and CDs?) A few times I've gotten home late (game), and still been able to catch the normal show. A few times, I've had a second show play afterwards, like an extra episode of woodcraft after what was just supposed to be fishing.

Anyone know what's up?

If you missed the schedule, but watch the TV before next shedule, you will get the missed show

So, if you missed the 1200 show, but watch the TV before 1800, you will get the 1200 show

At least, this is is how it seems to work now

For me it always plays on schedule... but since last update i did not survive more then a week :D by my experience, once all the shows have been played you might get only commercials, after power cuts you dont get anything even with a generator... But thats still exp. from before the last update so...

So in short, in start shows by schedule, after all shows are played just commercials or no signal at all..

Sometimes the shows might eff up. If you miss out for instance the starting show, the first show you will watch that day should be it. It is how on starting day at 1500 i had the cooking show...at 1600 i had the next show and at 1800 the next one. It is prolly a bug but sometimes it happens/happened. However they will still only work for the first few days.
