Vikings Times in Calendar Don't Correctly Correspond to Episode Guide Times

Irish316 wrote 8 years ago: 1

Vikings show times don't correspond on the calendar with their actual episode show times. For instance it shows Season 1 special tonight at 7 pm (actually 8 pm and that is the time it is set in the episode guide). Episode 1 is at 9 pm but calendar shows 8 pm. Episode 2 is at 10 pm but calendar shows 9 pm. The regular start time in my calendar is set for 8 pm when it should be 9 pm and it is correctly listed as 9 pm in the episode guide. Not sure why the episode times don't reflect in the calendar correctly.

The answer was given to your original question 4 days ago.

Do you have "Display airdates on the calendar and schedule in your local timezone" turned on in your site preferences? Please, note, that Vikings is linked to a History Canada network (it's Irish-Canadian co-production).

And the situation with Canadian shows was discussed many times, use the forum search.

Yes, I have it set to my local timezone (EST). That is why the show should be showing in the calendar as 9 pm not 8 pm as Vikings shows in the US at 9 pm EST on History. If what you're saying is it can't because of the Canadian timezone, then I would suggest that feature be changed.
