## I'm not sure this is right. It's not tied to coordination:
2.The Simpsons will be on, though not for 20 minutes.
3. Me: The Simpsons will be on. You: Not for 20 minutes though.
On the other hand, it's not freely available anywhere, unlike (say) VP
anaphora:
4. *The Simpsons will be on, but I think that not for 20 minutes.
