Premiere polled it's affiliates a few months ago as to what day we aired what program. Then the discs we receive for both AT40 and AT40 Flashback had the stickers you mentioned and the discs imprinted with the day. This maybe happens because of producing the cds and shipping. They could ship out Sunday's program a day later. Also, I thought this might have to do with the network spots, i.e. Fox-TV (advertising their shows for Saturday night which wouldn't be appropiate for Sunday's show), ToysRUs with their sales sometimes ending on Saturday and new ones on Sunday, and other time sensitive network ads.
