Continuity mistake: When the brother and sister are arguing, it is supposedly 6:30. because that is when the marathon starts. But watch when he flips past the preview channel - it is showing shows for the 1 to 2:30 slot. (00:00:35 - 00:12:40)
Pleasantville (1998)
Ending / spoiler
Directed by: Gary Ross
Starring: Reese Witherspoon, Jeff Daniels, William H. Macy, Joan Allen, Tobey Maguire
Everything turns to colour, Bud convinces the people of Pleasantville that change is a normal part of life and all is well. He returns home, but Jennifer stays in Pleasantville to go to college. Ultimately, nothing concrete is resolved for their parents, since the mother's love interest (Jeff Daniels) is substituted for her husband (William H. Macy) at the very last as the camera cuts back and forth in the final seconds of the shot.

Answer: To me it never looked like a montage. It was just someone flipping through the channels (channel surfing) until they got to "TV Time" where they stayed to watch the commercial for the PleasanTVille marathon. People (especially before DVRs) sometimes just flip through the channels looking for something to watch, especially if you don't know what's playing on each channel.
