** Inverted with ''WesternAnimation/SouthPark''. Much went all out to promote the seventeenth season of the show and it's still the only show Much will give heavy promotion to. But off-season, [[AllAdultAnimationIsSouthPark because of the show's content]], Much only airs the ''South Park'' on weekends, late into the night.

* ScrewedByTheNetwork: ''Series/{{Conan}}'' was the channel's favorite punching bag after it was moved from The Comedy Network. It started out airing at the same time as Creator/{{TBS}} at 11pm. Soon after, the show was pushed back to 12am for nothing but comedy reruns. Unlike the Creator/JimmyFallon-era ''Series/LateNight'' and ''[[Series/TheTonightShow Tonight Show]]'', which has been airing encores at 3pm/4pm since it was moved over from [=MuchMore=] in 2013, ''Conan'' was only aired once a day. It got even more egregious in Fall 2014, when ''Series/AtMidnight'' was moved from The Comedy Network and pushed back ''Conan'' to 12:30pm. For whatever reason, rather than simply airing an encore of ''Conan'', Much also paired ''The Tonight Show'' with an encore of ''Series/JimmyKimmelLive'' on weekdays, despite the show already airing on The Comedy Network. In 2017, after Much dropped Fallon, Kimmel, and ''@Midnight'', ''Conan'' was finally cut some slack. Not only was ''Conan'' now airing on weekdays, but it returned to its regular 11pm timeslot..., at least until it was ''yet again'' pushed back to 12am for more comedy reruns. By that Fall, Much dropped Conan altogether.
** Inverted with season two of ''WesternAnimation/TripTank''. Aside from the season receiving no promotion whatsoever and held over until October, Much gave [=TripTank=] a fair timeslot of Thursdays @ 10:30pm.
