They are in alpha order so that no one show can be cited as receiving preferential treatment by The Times. Those listings are sold by the line (at quite expensive rates) so it is only by the size of the listing that a show can generate more prominence within the list.

If anyone ever tells you that you put too much Parmesan cheese on your pasta, stop talking to them. You don't need that kind of negativity in your life.

Um, maybe, just maybe, because they call it the ABC directory?

PennyLou, I hate to burst your bubble and appear to be a know-it-all, but that's not why the sky is blue. The brief explanation: Blue light gets scattered around much more than all the other colors from the sun, causing the sky to appear blue. For more info visit the link below.
