Question: NFL on NBC showcases a Thursday night game that begins at what time?
Context: Must See TV was an advertising slogan that was used by the National Broadcasting Company (NBC) to brand its prime time blocks during the 1990s, and most often applied to the network's Thursday night lineup, which featured some of its most popular sitcoms and drama series of the period, allowing the network to dominate prime time ratings on Thursday nights in the 1980s and 1990s.  Ratings for NBC's lineup fell during the mid-to-late 2000s, and today the network ranks behind Fox, ABC and CBS on Thursday nights.  In 2015, the network canceled comedy programming on Thursdays and switched entirely to dramas.  However, the branding is set to return for the 2017-18 TV season. Thursday Night In San Francisco is a Blues album by Albert King, recorded live in 1968 at the Fillmore Auditorium.  This album, together with "Wednesday Night in San Francisco", contains leftovers recorded live on the same dates as "Live Wire/Blues Power".  "Thursday Night In San Francisco", released in 1990, contains material recorded on June 27, 1968. The National Football League (NFL) regular season begins the weekend after Labor Day in early September and ends in December or early January.  It consists of 256 games, where each team (32 total) plays 16 games during a 17-week period.  Since 2012, the NFL schedule generally has games in one of five time slots during the week.  A game played on Thursday night, kicking off at 8:25 PM (ET).  The majority of games are played on Sunday, most kicking off at 1:00 PM (ET), some late afternoon games starting at 4:05 or 4:25 PM (ET).  Additionally, one Sunday night game is played every week at 8:30 PM (ET).  One Monday night game then starts at 8:30 PM (ET) every week with the exception of the first week of the regular season, in which two Monday night games are played back-to-back (the second game always occurring on the West coast), as well as the last week of the season, in which no Monday night game is held.  In addition to these regularly scheduled games, there are occasionally games at other times, such as a Saturday afternoon or evening, or the annual Thanksgiving Day games in which three games are played.  During the final week of the regular season, all games are held on Sunday. Thursday Night Football is the branding used for broadcasts of National Football League (NFL) games that broadcast primarily on Thursday nights, and occasionally on Saturdays in the later portion of the season.  Most of the games kick off at 8:25 p.m. Eastern Time. Thursday Night Showcase appears every Thursday with the biggest games in college basketball in primetime during the regular season on ESPN and ESPN2.  The official name is "Thursday Night Showcase presented by T. Rowe Price".  The games include, on ESPN, an ACC battle at 7pm ET with Mike Patrick doing play- by- play and Len Elmore as color commentator.  ESPN's 9pm ET game features the Big Ten with Dave O'Brien and Stephen Bardo on the call.  On ESPN2, a Big East game, shown at 7 p.m. or 9 p.m., is called by Dave Pasch and Doris Burke.  In the other slot, ESPN2 offers a game from the West Coast Conference with Dave Flemming and either Sean Farnham or Miles Simon calling that game.  The studio host is Karl Ravech along with analysis from Dan Dakich.  They deliver the half time report, post game report and live in-game updates.  The gang also appears on "College GameNight" later that night. Artie Kempner is an American director for FOX Sports.  He is widely recognized for his work on the NFL, directing Super Bowls XLII (2008) and XXXIX (2005), as well as NASCAR, where he's directed 14 Daytona 500 races.  His directorial credits also include the Masters, NCAA Basketball tournament, NBA for Turner Sports, Thursday Night Football on the NFL Network, the NFL playoffs on NBC Sports, the NHL on Fox, as well as the Fox prime time entertainment special, Opening the Lost Tombs: Live from Egypt (1999). NFL on NBC is the branding used for broadcasts of National Football League (NFL) games that are produced by NBC Sports, and televised on the NBC television network in the United States.  The name was used until 1998, when the network lost the television rights to the American Football Conference (AFC) to CBS.  NFL coverage returned to NBC on August 6, 2006, under the title NBC Sunday Night Football, beginning with its coverage of the preseason Pro Football Hall of Fame Game.  NBC also packages a limited number of Thursday night games each year.  Since NBC acquired the "Sunday Night Football" package from ESPN, game coverage is usually preceded by the pre-game show "Football Night in America". 16th and Mission Thursday Night, more commonly known as 16th & Mission or simply "The Corner", is a weekly underground poetry and music performance event, that takes place in the late evening to midnight, at the street corner outside the entrance to the 16th Street and Mission BART Station in San Francisco.  16th and Mission Thursday Night was conceived by a group of local poets, musicians and New College of California students known as the Collaborative Arts Insurgency (CAI) in July 2003 as the "open mic without the mic." This is a list of results of National Football League games played on Turner Network Television (TNT).  From 1990–1997, TNT broadcast NFL games on Sunday nights for the first half of the regular season (or nine games a year).  Meanwhile, ESPN would pick things up for the second half of the season.  TNT also got a couple of Thursday night games to show, which were aired in place of Sunday night games (that would have otherwise conflicted with the World Series; coincidentally, the , , , and editions of the World Series featured the Turner-owned Atlanta Braves).  Following the 1997 season, ESPN would broadcast Sunday night NFL games for the whole season.  This particular arrangement between ESPN and the National Football League would continue until the end of the 2005 season.  Since that time, NBC (who last broadcast NFL games the same year that TNT last broadcast them, 1997) has been the television home of Sunday night games.  Meanwhile, ESPN has replaced as the broadcaster of Monday night games. The NFL on CBS is the branding used for broadcasts of National Football League (NFL) games that are produced by CBS Sports, the sports division of the CBS television network in the United States.  The network has aired NFL game telecasts since 1956 (with exception of a break from 1994 to 1997).  Since 2014, CBS has also broadcast "Thursday Night Football" games during the first half of the NFL season, through a production partnership with the NFL Network.
