30 min episode?

On my guide tonight it was PM as only a 30 min episode? TCOT Starled Stallion. Is that right? I am recording an hour just in case. Did they have 30 min episodes or is my guide that's wrong? I'll find out soon but wondering if anyone else saw this.

Yes, I saw the same thing. Really odd and probably an error.

It looks like a program error. PM is on and not the Rifleman as stated on the guide.

There are no 30 minutes episodes of PM.

I DVRed it and to my dismay, the recording stopped at 30 minutes as was programmed. I assume the entire show was aired live.

Yes it was. My guide has a 30 min episode and the a rifleman episode for the second half of the PM episode. So I just recorded an hour just in case. And it was an hour show. Btw, since you missed it, it turns out the horse hired a hit man and paid him in hay to do it. Jk lol

That ending was a virtual copy of that in The Case of the Bashful Burro, only with a donkey, not a horse.
