it means the show starts at 7 Central Time zone and ends at 8 in the same time zone. or maybe it means it starts at 8 eastern and 7 central... maybe it doesn't even mean that.

It means 8:00 pm Eastern Time (-5:00 UTC) or 7:00 pm Central Time (-6:00 UTC). The US spans several timezones, with four in the continental US. TV shows generally simultaneous air in 2 timezones at a time. So it will have the first airing at 8:00 Eastern/7:00 Central and then two hours later air 8:00 Mountain/7:00 Pacific. This lets the show air in the popular evening slot for all 4 time zones with only two airings.
