If what you need is "simple," regular expressions are almost never the
answer. And how simple can it be if you are posting here? :)
BeautifulSoup isn't all that hard. Observe:
>>> from BeautifulSoup import BeautifulSoup
>>> html = '10:00am - 11:00am:</b> <a href="/tvpdb?d=tvp&id=167540528&[snip]>The Price Is Right</a><em>'
>>> soup = BeautifulSoup(html)
>>> soup('a')
[<a href=""/tvpdb?d=tvp&id=167540528&">ThePrice Is Right</a>]
>>> for show in soup('a'):
print show.contents[0]
The Price Is Right
