0 a time when something can happen or is planned to happen, especially when it is one of several possible times: --
The series has dealt with similar storylines over the years which have often exceeded its restricted time slot.
He was initially given a time slot of about 25 minutes, but exceeded that by far lecturing for over an hour.
Its time slot was regularly pre-empted by sports events, making it difficult to predict when new episodes would air.
Rush hours would be limited to a maximum time slot, on working days only, of three hours in the morning and three hours in the late afternoon.
Will he accept that it is really not good enough to push it into a time slot so late in the day?
I believe that it had over 12 million viewers and almost won its time slot for that evening.
There will be competition for a restricted time slot.
My point is that the figures are valid, although they are limited in the sense that they are for a specific time slot.
