What 8 PM Eastern means
Network prime time on the East Coast starts at 8 PM Eastern. A game or show that airs live in both zones at 8 PM ET starts at 6 PM in Denver. Sports listings often print it as 6 p.m. MT (8 p.m. ET). Some TV shows air on a delayed local schedule so check your local listing. For work it is too late because most East Coast offices closed three hours ago. Book calls earlier with the work-hours meeting planner.
