This is the first I've heard of it. But there's a message floating around from
Scott Rosenberg confirming it, that the 15 eps have been broken up in half,
with 7 through November 7th, and the rest picking up early (I'm guessing
January) 2004.

I haven't been told this by anyone directly (hardly surprising), but my *guess*
would be that they're moving them out of the holiday season (Thanksgiving
through Christmas). TV viewership goes way down during late November through
January 1, and cable goes down even more. So if I had to hazard a guess at
their reasoning, they're probably acting to protect their investment, rather
than air the show at a time when nobody is watching, which would kill the
ratings and the show.
