Why 'The Masked Singer' Season 8 Episode 4 did not air?
'The Masked Singer' Season 8 Episode 4 did not air for US viewers, but it was certainly available for viewers in Canada. The episode did not air because of the baseball game airing at the same time. Game 2 of the series between the Philadelphia Phillies and Atlanta Braves was delayed due to rain on October 12, pushing back the start time to 7.30 pm EST. Fox was also set to air a game between Los Angeles Dodgers and San Diego Padres starting at 8.37 pm EST. This meant that 'Masked Singer' couldn't be aired at the scheduled time.
Angry fans flooded the internet with their hateful comments. One wrote, "Ok so apparently #TheMaskedSinger is on in Canada but still not here in Maryland, they said it will be after the game...but I doubt it. Even judge Nicole tweeted an apology about this & for any spoilers. Man is this a clusterf*@#!!!" Another wrote, "MLB should postpone the game and leave The Masked Singer shown! Not aired live!!" Moreover, a fan lashed out the anger, "This makes me hate baseball even more now".
