The switch was at midnight. If a station was in the middle of a network program at midnight, the
station was authorized to continue airing the program to its conclusion.
I thought the switch was made that Saturday at midnight. On the NFL telecast the next day, Fox
made mention that three stations joined the network--WTVT in Tampa, WAGA in Atlanta and
WITI in Milwaukee.

This was the show ( this and "Top of the Pops" ) that was hosted by the late Jimmy Savile. One of
the BIGGEST scandals to had taken place in the UK for generations involved Savile. Do a google
search about this since there is so much out there such as this....
http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/ukne...-hospital.html
and this...
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jimmy_..._abuse_scandal
Anyway long story short...do not expect to see "Jim'll Fix It" in reruns anytime soon.
Three days after the switch (CBS went to ch. 2 and NBC to ch. 5), some ads from channels 2 and
4 related with this are featured in the newspaper.

Why is Sonic The Hedgehog is on KSKN 22 at 6:00 AM and not the Super Mario Bros. I hate Sonic
with a passion, because why does Sonic get to be on almost every over the air station that has
aired The Lionhearts and Mario only gets to be on half of them? I want Super Mario Bros.
cartoons on every OTA station that aired The Lionhearts so freaking badly, I WANT IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Looks like WJW was Cleveland's home for "Trash TV" in 1999 with Jerry Springer, Ricki Lake, and
Maury back to back to back
Looking back, now it sure seems that way. However, that was the line up on most FOX stations.
Most of those talk shows ended up on UPN/WB (Now, CW and MyTV)
This is the schedule on the day of the JFK assassination. Obviously everything got preempted
after the reports from Dallas started coming in. Note that WBZ was off-network at the time
(running Mike Douglas, and I'm not sure if that was the live feed from Cleveland) so I don't know
at what point they joined NBC.
I’m not sure what educational stations did after the news came in. I do know that WGBH was
equipped to take feeds from the networks for various public affairs programs that weren’t being
cleared by the local affiliates. If anyone can clarify this please do.

Most appropriate that you would put up the schedules for JFK's part of the country. If you have
the Saturday and Sunday schedules, I wouldn't mind seeing them.
Since I'm not from Boston, I don't know how WGBH handled the coverage of the assassination
and its aftermath; after all, Boston had three network affiliates. It's not like our situation in
Raleigh, with an ABC station (WRAL) and a CBS one (WTVD), but no fulltime NBC affiliate. In our
case, WUNC, the educational (as public television was called in 1963) channel carried NBC's
coverage.
I wonder if anybody can tell me how the CBS situation was handled in Birmingham, where there
was an ABC station (WBRC) and a station that favored NBC news (WAPI, now WVTM), but no
fulltime CBS affiliate (and Cronkite wasn't carried there). Likewise, ABC was likely blacked out in
Charlotte, with WBTV (CBS) and WSOC (NBC) but no ABC station until 1964.

Douglas was always on tape in Boston (Pittsburgh, San Francisco, Baltimore and Boston were
always one week behind) - the tapes were bicycled from market to market. Buffalo for example
might gave gotten the tapes from Boston and then send them to Columbus)
It appears only CBS was network at the time that was feeding programming.
WGBH-TV had just moved into Western Ave a couple of months earlier and they indeed had a
two telco lines from New England Telephone on Franklin St which was the switching center for
AT&T long lines.

NBC and ABC went local at 1:30p - they didn't want to compete with "As The World Turns".

I don't know who voiced it; it could have been Jim Jensen (a news anchor there at the time), or
either Lindy Miller or Dick Tucker (both of whom were booth announcers at WBZ then).
I remember this because I was a month shy of my 8th birthday and my kid brother (age 4 1/2)
and I were indeed watching "Mike Douglas".
My brother and I woke our Mom up yelling that "The President's Been Shot!".
But by the time she got up, WBZ had (briefly) returned to "Mike Douglas", and she yelled at us
for saying something in bad taste, screaming "If President Kennedy had really been shot, they
wouldn't be running 'Mike Douglas'...".
But as soon as she finished "Douglas", a second bulletin, this time from NBC (I think it would be
1:45) came on.
I believe NBC made it's coverage available to independent and noncommercial stations, and that
WGBH-2 picked it up.

By request for bpatrick here's the Boston schedules for Saturday and Sunday that week:
Source – Boston Globe – Saturday, November 23 and Sunday November 24, 1963
These are the TV schedules that did not run due to the Kennedy Assassination. They were found
in the TV Week section on November 17 (Saturday) and November 24 (Sunday). I have noted
where the prime-time shows were actually aired for those episodes I could find information
about.

This era was when NBC and WHDH-TV were holding hands as NBC despised Westinghouse.
WBZ-TV didn't clear Meet The Press and Channel 5 fed a show to the entire NBC network on
Saturday. (plus 5 ran the Tonight Show as Group W had Steve Allen)
However the HT never got the permanent license so NBC never made the change.

And, if the WHDH deal didn't happen NBC was trying to buy WNAC from RKO General. That fell
through because NBC wanted to use WRCV Philadelphia in a trade while the Department of
Justice was deciding whether to return the station to Westinghouse.

Not exactly. The stations NBC would have traded to RKO would have been WRC AM-FM-TV in
Washington. The mess with Westinghouse in Philadelphia and Cleveland indeed held up the
WRC/WNAC swap and eventually killed it.
I remember seeing in Broadcast magazine at some point NBC proposed trading the Philly
stations for WNAC AM/FM/TV and then doing a cash deal for WRC AM/FM/TV. That could have
been just a rumor or someone throwing out a possibility. Either way it didn't happen, despite
years of trying.

WRC/WNAC swap and eventually killed it.
In 1959, RKO and NBC reached an agreement on what would have been the highest-priced
license transfer in broadcasting history to that time. The deal would have seen RKO acquire
NBC's WRC-AM-FM-TV in Washington, swap WNAC-AM-TV and WRKO-FM (the former WNAC-
FM) in Boston to NBC for that company's WRCV-AM-TV in Philadelphia, and sell the WGMS
stations in Washington to Crowell-Collier Broadcasting (as Federal Communications Commission
(FCC) regulations at that time would not permit ownership of both the WRC stations and the
WGMS stations).
NBC just wanted to be rid of Westinghouse. I surmise NBC then would have gone after another
market as they would have an open slot.
Years later Jerry Williams took a job at WRC-AM thinking it had a powerful signal which of course
was wrong.

As I suspected NBC did have another market in its sights. San Francisco.

Stupid question - why didn't NBC just award the affiliation to WNAC at a point when the contract
with WBZ was up? Were they wary of RKO General's history of preemptions of afternoon
programming for movies? Or did they just think they could muscle a deal so that wasn't
necessary?

I remember this because I was a month shy of my 8th birthday and my kid brother (age 4 1/2)
and I were indeed watching "Mike Douglas".
My brother and I woke our Mom up yelling that "The President's Been Shot!".
But by the time she got up, WBZ had (briefly) returned to "Mike Douglas", and she yelled at us
for saying something in bad taste, screaming "If President Kennedy had really been shot, they
wouldn't be running 'Mike Douglas'...".
But as soon as she finished "Douglas", a second bulletin, this time from NBC (I think it would be
1:45) came on.
I believe NBC made it's coverage available to independent and noncommercial stations, and that
WGBH-2 picked it up.
how did Mike Douglas handle the situation? did he stop the show?

Not true. ABC was too (The had Father Knows Best on the national feed (If you watch the ABC
coverage on David Von Pein's YT channel you'll see this. It's also on the WFAA coverage as well
(Though they of course were the first TV news operation - Local OR National - To break the news
of the shooting & dropped the network in favor of it but later rejoined ABC once the two were
able to establish a then-unique way of covering news)
Not sure what NBC was doing before they started covering the shooting though

i heard a interview with Mike Douglas and he said that John Dancy came into the studio to
announce the shooting Mike said he tried to go to another segment he gave up switching to
Frank McGee he said they had to tape 22 minutes that day
Not sure what NBC was doing before they started covering the shooting though
How is it that in the Dallas listings for 11/22/63 (posted elsewhere) that Route 66's episode was
"A Cage In Search Of A Bird" and everywhere else it was "Kiss The Monster, Make Him Sleep"?

Actually, WFAA was in local programming. It was The Julie Benell Show. I don't know whether the
show was live or on tape.

At first, I would have voted for on tape, since the tape on YouTube breaks up all over the place
when WFAA-TV switches from the talk show to Jay Watson live in studio with the station's first
JFK bulletin. But wait...it shouldn't have broken up (as it would have on a switch from local to
network) since WFAA's tape machines and studio cameras should have been on the same (local)
synch.
And then there's the background noise in the seconds before the switch--probably setting up
Watson to do his thing in another part of the studio. That would indicate to me that the talk
show was live. So I can't explain the synch break up at the switch. Any long-time WFAAers still
around to shed some more light?

And David Von Pein's YouTube channel has both WFAA local & ABC national coverage (Two
different videos but the coverage eventually becomes one once ABC & WFAA hook up for then-
unprecedented coverage even though DVP has both ABC national & WFAA local coverage on his
channel)
The coverage from WFAA & ABC on TV could only be rivaled by WFAA & NBC on radio (But of
course in the early hours of coverage, people in Dallas could only hear NBC Radio via WBAP even
though WFAA Radio was the NBC Radio affiliate

...both WFAA and WBAP were affiliated with the ABC and NBC radio networks. WBAP and WFAA
were still sharing two frequencies, 570 kHz (5,000 watts) and 820 kHz (50,000 watts), in an
arrangement that had its roots in the 1920s, trading freqs every six hours at 3:00 and 9:00 AM
and 3:00 and 9:00 PM. ABC affiliation stayed with the 570 frequency, whereas NBC was always
heard on 820; at the time of the assassination, WFAA was on 570 and WBAP on 820. Both ABC
and NBC relied more heavily on WFAA for reportage, as they were owned by the Dallas Morning
News and their studios were a couple of blocks away from Dealey Plaza, while WBAP was owned
by the Fort Worth Star-Telegram and its studios were 30 miles to the west...

Actually, it was a little more complicated than that, King. There were multiple flips during the day
and prime-time hours were allocated by day of the week.
This article includes a reprint of a 1931 schedule for (then) 800kc -- this link is the full article
from which that reprint was taken -- and this page has a scan of an actual 3:00pm-to-midnight
seven-day grid for WFAA from the 1960s.
The arrangement lasted until May 1, 1970. On that date, WBAP's purchase of the portion of
820kHz they did not already own was consummated and they went full-time on that frequency.
That deal included WFAA receiving ownership of the portion of 570kHz they didn't already have.

...many thanks for the correction, KMR. And I notice on those pages that both station had FM
sisters -- Classical WBAP-FM on 96.3 and Easy Listening WFAA-FM at 97.9. I still wonder exactly
what the FMs did that afternoon, as simply simulcasting the AMs would wind up interrupting
reports from each network at trade-off time. It would probably have made more sense to have
the FMs match up with the affiliations of the TV stations, with WBAP-FM going with NBC and
WFAA-FM running ABC. But I've never found out what happened on that end of things...

I suspect that answer is lost to history, King. FM was still relatively new, most of its audience was
audiophiles at that point, and no one would have bothered to note what happened. Unless we
can find former staffers of those stations -- and even if they were still fairly young (in their 20s)
when Kennedy was assassinated, they'd be in their early 70s in the best case scenario. It's more
likely that those who know have carried that knowledge to their graves already. Unfortunate,
because it is an interesting unanswered question.

If the suggestion was that Batchelor Father was on the entire ABC network at the time of the first
network bulletin, that claim is false. Only a selected few stations, such as WABC-TV in New York
and a few other Owned and operated stations carried Batchelor Father and some of them
carried it on a delayed basis. The other affiliates carried either syndicated or local programming.
WFAA-TV in Dallas was not carrying Batchelor Father but was instead airing a live, locally
produced program called The Julie Benell Show. The program was interrupted when Program Jay
Watson came on to announce the shooting in Deally Plaza.

I made a similar comment earlier in this thread--that the live feed for Bachelor Father on ABC
was 12:30-1:00 PM ET.
For example: KTVK Phoenix and KGUN-TV Tucson both aired the show "live" from 10:30-11:00
AM MT. BTW, neither was an O&O.
Any later airing (such as 1:30-2:00 PM ET) was via tape delay at an individual station.

I'm thinking the show we're talking about is Father Knows Best on ABC, not Bachelor Father on
NBC.
The recording of Father Knows Best does sort of look like it's a recording of the network feed and
not of the station's output. (And why WOULD they record their output?) For instance, at the end
of the show after the network promo/ID, they don't cut to a local break or even a station ID. If
one station had been feeding the show to another, you wouldn't have seen the network cut-ins.
Didn't ABC operate on Clock Time in the early 60s? If that's the case, it could have been recorded
at any station in the Central time zone.

Correct. Douglas was interviewing a government official (and later first HUD secretary), Robert
Weaver, at the time. While talking to him, he could see Dancy (then known as "Bud") walking
down through the studio bleachers, out of the corner of his eye. Obviously a little flustered from
the oddity of Dancy doing that, he asked what was going on...

Only local wrestling shows meant for kids. 100% Lucha (2006-2010) was the latest that had the
most success.
The only exception was when Canal 9 aired Raw and Smackdown (international 60 min. versions)
on weekend mornings between 2006 and 2009, with the PPVs being shown on a one week delay
on Sundays at noon. All three were bumped to weekdays at 1:30-4:30am (an assortment of new
and old episodes) in late 2009 before being dumped altogether in January 2010. American
wrestling hasn't been shown on terrestrial TV ever since, with Raw and Smackdown being shown
live and unedited (save for a Spanish narration) from the US on FOX Sports 2 and the PPVs also
live on FOX Action (a premium film channel belonging to the FOX+ channel suite, a Latin
American equivalent of Starz).

11:00 Late Show with David Letterman (was 62 airing it delayed from the day before?)
No. CBS provided the same day show to WGPR/WWJ 30 minutes earlier than the rest of the
network.
I lived in Detroit at the time and remember seeing the show. When WGPR first switched to CBS,
they heavily promoted Letterman at the earlier time. The newspaper even did stories about the
"special arrangement" with CBS.
I don't know at what point they started airing Letterman at 11:35. It was probably in 2001 when
they briefly tried an 11 PM newscast.
Kind of odd that the Blade had WWJ since it's the weakest of the Detroit stations (it's not carried
in Bedford [Detroit DMA] while most other Detroit stations are (including both WMYD and
WKBD))
This paper only listed CBET, and not other over-the-air Canadian stations.

I don't recall the $1,000,000 chance of a lifetime. WTOL always did pretty well considering it had
competition from another affiliate in Detroit. I didn't know they had Wheel of Fortune/Jeopardy
back then. Thanks for posting this.
I made a mistake. I meant to say that the three episodes of the Charades game show Body
Language that Vicki Lawrence & Ted Lange did together originally respectively aired on
December 30, 1985, January 2, 1986, and January 3, 1986. My bad.
I'm guessing that ch. 2 carried the WWF at 11am in those days.
Yep, they did...WJBK had WWF syndicated shows right through the early years of their Fox
affiliation. On Saturdays, it was "Superstars of Wrestling".
Was WUPW even on the air in '86? I moved to Toledo in '88 and it seems to me
They first went on the air in September 1985; from this link from the Vintage Toledo TV site,
WUPW was in TV Guide (at least in the Toledo-Lima edition, which also included listings from
Detroit, Fort Wayne, and Dayton) from day one. I would imagine the same happened with the
Detroit edition.

move to 5 PM later in the Fall. Then the next year this news crew would move to Noon giving
new York City its first Noon Newscast being the Network stations were O & O's and committed to
Network offerings well into the late 80's. Until then Channel 9 had the only midday live newscast
and it was a success - The reason I think they dumped the 10 PM Newscast was because of the
large amount of sports run on the station in prime time. The news would be preempted more
than it aired.)
11:30 LUCY SHOW-Comedy (Tues-Fri) (also fell off WOR TV in 1976. WPIX picked it up in 1977 but
the show did not do well there - in fact this show was not all that successful in syndication -

Channel 5 offered fewer movies than the rest and they tended to be older ones. Part of the
reason was first run shows were on in prime time like Merv and News. Merv in Prime Time was a
Metromedia thing. Most Metromedia Stations ran fewer movies than most independents.
Metromedia tended to rely heavily on sitcoms for their stations. Channel 5 was the leading
independent with WPIX somewhat behind and WOR TV was the also ran.

Re: Retro: New York City TV Schedules - Commercial Independents - Week of 9-4-72
How long did WOR have the pre-'48 a.a.p.-syndicated Warners' toons in the period up to '72? I
know their first appearance was on what was then WABD in the mid-'50's . . .
Also:
- The 10 P.M. newscast WOR had back then was called News Digest; after it moved to 5 P.M. it
became First News.
- Fright Night did not exist until 1973; their late Saturday night/early Sunday morning horror
movie skein in those days was known as Tales of Terror.
- I don't know about the Sunday 5 P.M. movie, but the 7 P.M. movie skein went under The Big
Preview umbrella; their late Sunday night/early Monday morning movie at midnight was
branded the Sunday Night Showcase.
- The Eight O'Clock Movie title didn't apply to WPIX's movie at that time until the end of 1974;
their skein back then was called Friday's Movie at Eight.
- The movie skein that ran Abbott & Costello movies on Sunday afternoons was actually called
Sunday's Movie at Noon, after moving to 11:30 A.M. in '73 (with Hot Butter's "Popcorn" as the
theme) it was re-branded the Sunday Morning Movie.
- After Eastside Comedy (whose theme music as of 1973 was Vic Mizzy's "One Little, Two Little,
Three Little Tombstones" music cue from The Addams Family), WNEW's Sunday movie block
was: Five Star Movie, followed by Metromedia Movie and (at 6 P.M., after Rawhide) Sunday
Playhouse (later to become Weekend Playhouse).
- The announcers for the indies back then would have been as follows: WNEW-TV - Tom Gregory,
Ed Ladd, Fred Scott, Lou Steele, plus (part-timer) Bob Jones and possibly Barbara Korsen; WOR-
TV - Russ Dunbar, Frank McCarthy, Phil Tonken, Ted Mallie and (possibly) Fred Maness; probably
Bob Jordan, plus P/T'ers Cable Spence and Jim Lounsbury, and probably (at this early point)
Connecticut-based freelancer Ray Marlin; WPIX - (that I know of) Bill Biery, Joe Bolton, Roy
Whitfield (Ralph Lowenstein did not join the station as an announcer until 1974) - did 11 have
other staff announcers besides these names as of '72?

Re: Retro: New York City TV Schedules - Commercial Independents - Week of 9-4-72
My guess is that WOR TV had pre 48 Warner Brothers Cartoons from the late 60's to about 1973
when they quietly went to WNEW TV.
Did not know the name of WOR TV newscasts for those are not listed in TV Guide. Also the same
with other titles so I could be wrong about many of the titles. Mister Magoo fell off WOR TV in
1977 sometime and went to WPIX in the Fall of 1978. So many shows that fell off WOR TV went
other places while some like the Beverly hillbillies did not

Notice that Columbia's CBS affiliate aired Andy Griffith (which was and still is very popular in the
South) instead of an 11pm newscast
I don't know when, but the WLTX's 11pm was introduced in the early 1990s.
And that WIS had news in all four dayparts. The reason why WIS was (and still is) #1.
Was WIS benefited for having a 7pm newscast or was benefited because it's on a VHF
frequency?

Interesting. As late at 1985, Buenos Aires, had only five TV stations, all VHF. Buenos Aires is the
fourth largest metro area in the Americas, between NYC, #3, and LA, #5.
They all sign on in late morning (no local version of the Today Show or Good Morning America).
Only two stay on the air past 1 am. Channel 2 uses many U.S. shows, with 7 and 9 using some. 11
and 13 use none, but they do air a lot of soap operas.
I see that 11 signs on with the Mexican version of Sesame Street. It never occurred to me that it
isn't simply a Spanish-language version. But then, I guess the accents are different. I suppose
Mexico supplies a lot of programming to other Latin American countries.
The Mexican accent is very different from the Argentine, but Televisa long ago learned the art of
doing neutral Spanish so they could syndicate product. The major difference between countries
is language usage, so they have to carefully write all scripts, too.
Colombia, which has the most "pure" Spanish in the Hemisphere syndicates lots of programming
in upper South America and Central America, too. Argentina, with its different verb usage and
very unusual accent, does not export much programming except to Southern Cone nations as it
is difficult for others to understand.
Of course, many of these countries send their channels via satellite to the USA, so we get these
different countries' accents on their respective cable channels. I hear different forms of Spanish
spoken in my home town of Boston, so I know how it feels.
Did The Professionals air in the U.S.? Here in Argentina had a moderate success; the opposite
happened with Dallas and Dynasty, which were two of the most watched shows through the
1980s.

Three runs of Jerry Springer on WTTV? And one at 5PM? That must have been startling for
children, going from WB Kids and cereal/toy ads, to strippers fighting and brawling each other.
And 1 1/2 hours of infomercials on WXIN, midday no less. They could have put Arrest and
Trial/Charlie's Angels etc. at 1-2:30, and swapped 3AM for infomercials like everyone else!
The 5pm airing of Springer on WTTV lasted for years. For example, the 1998 schedule posted last
month:
https://www.radiodiscussions.com/show...ay-May-19-1998
I can't remember when Springer moved to WXIN. It might not have been until Tribune purchased
WTTV in '02.
This day was also the last day WRTV was really a player in the Indianapolis news market. For
most if not all of the time since Clyde and Dion left, WRTV's evening and late news has been in

WPCQ has some real oddities: a show (a game show no less) between the local and national
news, no 11pm newscast (so they could show Benny Hill!). I decided to look up this station, and
the next year they would drop the national news altogether. I wonder why NBC decided to stick
with such a low rent affiliate.
What really shocks me is that WPCQ would show Real People instead of the network news. You
don't see that these days. It was when Renaissance Broadcasting acquired the station from
Group W in 1984, that they stopped preempting the network news.
Another surprise: Andy Griffith wasn't cleared in Charlotte at this time!

I wonder if the WB was offering Monday Night programming then with 'Lethal Weapon' airing on
WXON? I suppose they could've as that was a Warner Bros movie IIRC.
Good idea culling this from the Toledo paper as the Detroit papers aren't part of the Google
News archive. These posts of your are interesting and I thank you for the effort you put into it.
Yes, particularly as that archive consists of image files and you are
typing them all by hand. I have done that here from a couple of old copies of the
Flint Journal I had lying in the attic. It was quite time consuming (and I type pretty well).
It was a syndicated offering. The WB didn't start on Monday nights until August of '96 with the
premiere of "7th Heaven" and the short-lived "Savannah," which moved from Sunday nights.

I always found it odd that Washington, PA included WJAC and WWCP in their TV listings but not
WBOY, WDTV, or WNPB.
WTAJ is not in the listings either.

I don't know what that Pinceladas show on the Hartford CBS affiliate was. If it was a Hispanic
themed show, this would strike me as somewhat remarkable for Hartford back in 1984. Also
surprised that none of the syndicated daily business shows were showing up in the early
morning lineups then. I don't think Jeopardy! returned to syndication until that fall. The CBS
affiliate in Hartford wasn't carrying 'Press Your Luck' for some reason.
Why would you think that? Hartford had a large Hispanic population even back in the '80s, even
had a Spanish-language FM station for a while to go along with AMs in the area. I don't know
what "Pinceladas" was, either, but a Hispanic-oriented show on WFSB wouldn't be a total shock
-- although on a weekday rather than buried on a Sunday morning is something of an eye-
opener. Its time slot would indicate that the target audience was kids up early to get ready for
school (or preschool), so maybe it was a Mon-Fri series.
I wasn't aware Hartford had such a population then. Was it primarily Puerto Ricans?
Yes. I believe there are more Dominicans in the mix now. (I'm sure David Eduardo, if he stumbles
upon this thread, will have plenty of facts and figures on this.) In Meriden, where I am, much of
the sizable Hispanic community can trace its roots not just to Puerto Rico but to one town in
Puerto Rico -- Aguada.
To my south is Wallingford, whose small Hispanic population is, rather surprisingly, Mexican --
many work at a chemical plant located there. There are a couple of Mexican taquerias, grocery
and clothing stores in the town, but I have a feeling the Mexican population of the Hartford and
New Haven areas as a whole is tiny. There's never been any attempt to serve it via radio or TV.

Interesting. I presume even the Fort Wayne times were in Central Time, which is what South
Bend had even though Ft. Wayne was on Eastern time.
But I was also a backup operator and probably running tape this weekend. (We had 4 people quit
ops at the same time...better jobs.) I did more punching buttons than replacing them...

What? Nothing for the PBS Station? Are you kidding me?!
PBS station WFYI broadcasted PBS' 2000 Today all day long.
The ABC station looked a little lacking was that from the actual station or an error?
It wasn't an error. That day, ABC broadcasted a 25-hour program called "ABC 2000" to welcome
the new millennium.
same as on BBC1 as well, we had a 30 hour programme called 2000 today to celebrate the
millenium

Game 3 between the Dodgers and the Phillies, also known as Black Friday.
How stable would those analog signals from Green Bay have been
Stable enough to remain on cable there until 2009! Ludington's been kind of an odd area when it
came to cable carriage. Until the early 1990s, there were more Wisconsin signals seen on cable
than Michigan signals (the balance changed when WGKI first signed on [WKBD was never carried
in Ludington as far as I know]). More recently, Ludington missed out on most of the WB's run
and the first eight years of the CW as then-Bresnan never picked up a WB affiliate after WGN
dropped the network on their superstation feed. CW was finally added in 2014, via the Charter-
owned CW+ affiliate. For those wondering, UPN and then MNT was (and still is) provided via
WXSP.
Jim Simpson and Maury Wills did the 3.00 game while Joe Garagiola and Tony Kubek did the late

Telethons, like the one that aired on Channel 50 for CMN, are largely relics of the past now. Even
MDA doesn't have theirs any longer.
I wonder if WJBK aired that Vendetta movie on Sunday afternoon because it had been pre-
empted in prime time by something else?
Thanks for posting this.
I am guessing Vendetta was a Made for TV Movie (since the production date is also 1991)
I believe WJBK had the Tigers contract in '91, and it's June so baseball season had started.
My guess is it's a repeat of a network TV movie that was pre-empted during the week.
The Tigers were still on WDIV at the time...if not for the NBA playoff game, 4 would have likely
televise a Tigers game that afternoon. For the record, they played at Cleveland that afternoon;
maybe that game was on the old PASS network.
50 - WKBD (FOX)
That was a very short-lived spin-off of Married, With Children starring a very young Matt
LeBlanc.
Info on "Vendetta" is available on Wikipedia and shows up in a simple internet search. It was a
syndicated mini-series.

Strange that channel 69 picked up only 30 minutes of Home from channel 2, and they passed on
daytime Feud and Wheel from channel 5.
Channel 69 actually carried the CBS Feud for about a month, from its 7/4/88 debut, before
suddenly dropping it. They ran the CBS Card Sharks at 4:30 immediately after as well as the show
that replaced it, Now You See It. In 1992, Feud aired on WTLK/ch. 14 out of Rome, which was a
crapshoot in reception since it was not required to be added onto Atlanta cable systems.
I believe the show WGNX was running at 2:30 PM was The New Adventures of He-Man, not He-
Man and the Masters of the Universe.

To be sincere with you, the schedule on the paper said simply "He-Man", and I thought it was
the right show.

12:35 Late Late Show with Tom Snyder (guest: comedian Howie Mandel)
Jerry Springer was about at his apex that year. He moved to WXON in 2000, I think. UPN and WB
were still developing a consistent prime time schedule and ABC was in significant transition itself.
Longtime hits 'Coach' and 'Roseanne' ended in 1997 with not much to replace them. ABC made
the regrettable choice of making Jamie Tarses its President which ended badly a few years later.
The trend towards a lot of infomercials for overnight programming still hadn't taken hold
meaning there was actual programming to watch in overnight hours.
Spot-on about Springer...I was a high school junior around this time, and his show aired locally in
Los Angeles at 11pm Monday-Saturday night, while competing against the news on KCBS, KNBC,
and KABC. He often beat KNBC and KCBS in the ratings in that hour.
WDIV had all the Trash TV shows at this time (Maury and Jerry of course, and Jenny Jones was
trashy at this time). Also, WWJ aired Letterman at 11pm at this time. Was it that same night's
show or a day delay?
Letterman was the same day show. CBS fed it to WWJ early for the 11PM broadcast. (I lived in
Detroit at the time. WWJ didn't have much going for it, but they could promote Letterman@11.)
12:35 Jenny Jones (women with natural breasts face off against females with implants)
You asked me the same on a previous post, and I told you that The Toledo Blade only listed
English-speaking stations.
Also, Radio-Canada never had any cable carriage on the American side of the border. AFAIK, the
Blade never included another Canadian besides CBET.
The Detroit papers never included Radio-Canada in their listings AFAIK, but they did have (in
their statewide listings) CBET, CHBX, CJIC, and CKCO (and possibly TVO).
I believe the show that WKBD was running at 8 AM was The Mask: Animated Series, not M.A.S.K.
Most of the Canadian stations near Detroit were either low-power or positioned farther away
from Detroit. When I lived there, CBET/9 was the only Canadian station I could receive off-air.

I don't think the 'New Dragnet' and 'New Adam-12' aired much after 1991. I haven't been able to
find much of these first run syndicated series except for clips of the openings on You Tube. Some
pretty decent prime time programming on Saturday. Networks weren't yet ignoring this night
apparently.

It's amazing how much our TV changed in 3 years... You no longer see kids' shows on Ch.13 and
now all news programmes start much earlier.
BTW the Avenida Brasil showing at 5 is not a repeat - it's the original showing before it got
moved to primetime to compete with Tinelli.
You're right. I forgot that, but when I read your comment yesterday, I began to rememember
that I used to watch Avenida Brasil on those very hot and humid afternoons, but I stopped
watching it in May 2014 when it moved to primetime.
It's a horror depending what do you want to watch. These soaps are not full of drama, others are
comedies or a mixture of both.
It depends of the country. Soap operas aren't as pervasive in Argentina (you have other choices
even if you can't afford cable or a fast Internet connection) as they are in Mexico, Colombia and
Venezuela.

I wonder how many people in the DDR had access to West German TV?
I think about 80% of the country was in range of GDR TV. There was an area around Dresden that
was not, which East Germans referred to as "the valley of darkness" or something. The color
systems were not compatible (DDR = SECAM, GDR = PAL) so typically it was being watched in
black-and-white.

I was born in 1978 and i grew up watching WNEW / WNYW-TV alot especially when they became
a Fox O&O station and started carrying WWF Wrestling from 1986 - 1996. Can anyone help me
out with the schedule from April 5, 1978 to at least December 31, 2015?

Actually, WNYW bought WWOR in August 2001, and from after the events of 9/11, WWOR aired
the Fox Kids weekday block until the network ended kids programming on weekdays.

Thank you. Someone can make a similar thread for WWOR and other NYC OTA TV's listings 1949-
2015. I wondered why WNYW moved WWF Superstars from Noon (since September 1990) to
1pm (briefly in 1994-95)?

I see where WTNH and WPRI's morning ABC line-ups don't match WCVB, who delays some of the
shows. But there is error present. Scooby-Doo Classics (chs. 8 and 12, 9 AM, paired with Fonz &
The Happy Days Gang) aired only four weeks at the start of the 1981-82 season as a stop-gap
due to the Laverne & Shirley cartoon being delayed.
see channel 30 of New Britain/Hartford carried the Connecticut Lottery Daily Numbers/Play 4
drawing then! Today, all in-state drawings and the multi-state Lucky For Life game (which
Connecticut conducts the drawings for) are aired by WCCT-TV (CW) channel 20 of
Waterbury/Hartford. Drawings have been aired there or by sister station WTIC-TV (FOX) channel
61 of Hartford since 1997. I believe the drawings are done at the WTIC-TV studios on Broad
Street in Hartford.
You asked for it, you got it! Here's the schedule for WXNE-TV from that day, taken from The
Nashua Telegraph.

Just amazing how crappy the Canadian television market was and remains.
Most all the offerings are from the U.S. and those Canadian offerings
Surprised that stations from Lorain were included. I suspect this is because the Windsor paper
also served Leamington and Ahmerstburg which, being near or on Lake Erie could've picked
these up. I wasn't aware that the Star was included in the Newspaper Archive (albeit only to
1986). Appreciate that knowledge as well as the listings southferretti!

Detroit is on the Canadian border were there no listings of SRC, CTV, Global and CHCH printed?
The Windsor Star has the listings for the stations you've mentioned, not The Toledo Blade.
The Detroit Papers carried the listings for CBET (Channel 9 in Windsor) as well as listings for the
nearest Global and CTV affiliates. However, the Detroit Papers are not available via a free
archive.
The USA Today show WJBK was showing was intended as a weeknight news magazine and had
been launched the previous fall. The fact that it had such a poor slot in a market as significant as
Detroit foretold why it didn't last long. WGPR still showed afternoon movies at this point.
That the CBS Detroit affiliate was able to push the network's late night show (Pat Sajak) in favor
of Arsenio Hall also foretold the quick demise of that show which wasn't really bad at all.
Independent stations were still independent at this point. An interesting time in TV. Thanks for
the post!

WTVT used to air CBS-EN at 6:30pm? Hmm... I've always thought it was hour-long news at
6:00pm this entire time in WTVT's history.
It switched to 6:30PM right after expanding their 5PM news to a full hour, around 1989.
CNN Headline News was still be syndicated in 30 minute blocks at this time.
I'm surprised the Gainesville and Jacksonville stations were included in the listings.

This night was probably when 'Caddyshack' made its Network TV debut for May sweeps. 'Archie
Bunkers Place' still had another season to go after this one.
I know it's a Sunday but still I am a bit surprised that there was little local news. Must be a
"Southern Thing" since I know many small local stations in Pennsylvania and New York even
West Virginia that did offer Sunday local news even in 1982.
Maybe the other stations were afraid of the dominance of WIS and WCSC on their respective
markets, even on the weekends.
One of the few stations that carried that 15 minute late CBS newscast at 11:15.
Maybe but I was thinking along the lines of the "day of rest" rule. A lot of TV and radio stations
during the 60s and 70s when it came to Sunday they had a very limited staff ( sometimes only
one person all day ) and the newsroom was closed under lock and key. By 1982 however the day
of rest rule was slowly fading out and totally gone by the mid 90s I think WHSV and WSET both
in Virginia were the last to do that. I worked at a country radio station in Virginia that had the
day of rest rule too. Sundays I could read live on the air PSAs and lost dogs but NEVER the
weather forecast or give a sports update. I felt that was strange. Today of course it would be
budget cuts or whatever given as the lack of news on Sundays.
It wasn't until the late 1980s or early 1990s that more than one station broadcast news on
Sundays in Charleston. Channels 2 and 4 had a very small staff, at least compared to what they
have now. Even Saturday nights were limited. Only Channel 5 broadcast late news on Saturdays
till about 1990.
There is an aircheck of a 1986 WCBD weekend newscast on YouTube, and there was a news
anchor, Dave Christopher, and a sports guy, but no weather person. The anchor guy READ the
weather. That would be unheard of today, with stations even in this market barely above 100
having 4 meteorologists.
That's interesting, since i remember WLOS/13 always having a newscast after college football
from ABC. Of course when they got Baywatch, it became a moot point. I don't remember
WYFF/4 doing a newscast after Notre Dame games, they'd jump into whatever show aired after.
The same thing applied with WSPA/7.

Hmmm... I keenly recall WLNE signing off just like the other Providence stations around this
time... Maybe it was only on weekends, I don't know...
I also thought WHLL/27 would be airing the episodes of "Another World" that WBZ/4 was
bumping around this time, too...
1988 was a little before my time there, but when I worked there in the early 1990's we tape-
delayed "Days Of Our Lives" by one day and scrounged other NBC programming bumped by
WBZ. The next year we took ABC fare bumped by WCVB. So I suppose it's very possible they
were picking off NBC programs in the late 80's.

Did any other stations move the Late Show to a later time from 11pm ET/10pm CT or not air it at
all?
Odd how WLNE specifically pre-empted Bold and the Beautiful with syndicated programming.
Most stations only pre-empted it if they had an hour of local news with Y&R at 1pm.

I memory serves me correctly, I believe they were owned by the Christian Science Monitor at
that time.
Nope, it was owned by Pat Robertson's Christian Broadcasting Network. And the call was WXNE
(X for "Christ" + NE for "New England"), not WXME. The Monitor was the original owner of
WQTV, Channel 68.
I'm surprised that WBZ had their own pregame, instead of airing NBC's.
I'm guessing the Patriots show normally served as a postgame for 1 PM starts, and didn't
typically pre-empt the network show.
Okay, I thought it might've been because it was Sunday, but that clears it up.

'This Week in Baseball' had ended the previous season. I think Fox was using 'In the Zone' as a
pregame show. TWIB returned as Fox's Saturday pregame until ending around 2013 or so. PBA
Bowling had ended its run on ABC in 1997 and CBS picked up some of it for the 1998 year.

Interesting seeing 'That's Hollywood!' was still turning up on KGO as filler in '86. Incidentally, Van
Amburg did his last newscast for the station the night before.
Ted Knight had passed away just a few days before this date. The 'Ted Knight Show' listed here
was the continuation under a new name of 'Too Close for Comfort', without the two daughters,
as Henry and Muriel moved to Marin County. Pat Carroll co-starred as Henry's new boss, the
editor-publisher of a 'small town' paper, for which Henry was the editorial cartoonist. The show
had debuted in early 1986, with production delayed because of Knight's cancer diagnosis.
Although he felt well enough to do a half-season, he faltered shortly after production had
wrapped up.
The NBC 'Game of the Week' was the Dodgers(going nowhere that year) at the Mets(running
away with the NL East on the way to a thrilling World Series win; they're still waiting for their
next title).
Surprised that two independent stations were airing 'Battlestar Galactica' at the same time. I
wasn't aware that 'Whiz Kids' with only a single season was ever offered for syndication.
The two independents were (and are) in different markets, but in the 80s, both were probably
on many cable systems together.
Also kind of odd to see a Salinas station listed in this paper, which was based in Sonora.
For those curious about "Punky Brewster" airing on Saturday mornings (well, except on
KRON)...that's the animated version. NBC in the 80s (and ABC too, with the Garry Marshall
sitcoms getting their own animated series) had a penchant of having Saturday morning series
featuring more of their family-friendly prime time stars--Gary Coleman, Mr. T, the
aforementioned Punky Brewster, and ALF, whose animated companion series premiered in fall
1987. NBC even ran reruns of Fat Albert on Saturday mornings during 1989, while The Cosby
Show was still at its height of popularity (while the reruns were still running concurrently in
syndication in some areas).

Surprised that Solid Gold was cleared so late on a Sunday. That was usually a Saturday Prime
Time show in most markets.
I'm guessing WTOG 44 aired Championship Wrestling from Florida in the 12 noon time slot.
Listings ran from 6AM to 3AM; programs between 6PM and 1AM were listed in a grid format by
the paper, some names are incomplete.

WPXN/Pax TV NEVER ran the Cosby Show which were Bill Cosby episodes from NBC from 1984
to 1992. They ran the show just called Cosby which CBS ran from 1996 to 1999.
But What I remember back during that year, Their actual listings online listed at 5:00pm and
5:30pm as: "The Cosby Show", and the 1996 version actualy ended in 2000.

In my opinion, 9/11 was the beginning of the end of the Regis version of Millionaire. I recall the
show was back on the air less than a month after 9/11, and it was all celebrity editions, 4-5
nights a week. I got tired of that very fast.
Question: On 9/11, what did the PBS stations that were airing childrens' programming do?
Canada's CBC, which has long aired childrens' programming in the morning hours, did not break
into their programming with any coverage of the attacks until 12:00pm ET. They stated at the
time they had broken into childrens' programming in 1986 with news of the Challenger
explosion, and after an associated controversy they didn't want to make that mistake again.

...I recall that the mayoral election was originally taking place that very day. Why on Earth would
there be a Mayoral Debate scheduled two hours after the polls closed?...
11:35pm Nightline
...the last item shown on WABC-TV/7 before the WTC news broke on the station was a promo for
that week's Nightline series of special reports on the political violence of the previous ten years
or so in Congo that ran at the end of a spot set on Good Morning America. WABC-TV switched to
its own coverage of the WTC event right after a split-second of a network image of Charles
Gibson and Diane Sawyer...
...this is, in fact, what my own TV set (in Sharon, Wisconsin, 90 miles plus Northwest of Chicago)
was tuned to that morning, when the first plane hit; I had fallen asleep in front of the TV during
the previous late-night's rerun of The Odd Couple and I didn't wake up until halfway through
Maury. Deciding everything was pretty much okeh in the world, I fell back to sleep for a while;
what woke me was the absence of audio coming from the TV. I opened my eyes to see a Dish
Network computer-generated visual message stating that WPIX-TV was experiencing "technical
difficulties" in its feed to Dish. I then flipped over to KTLA/5 Los Angeles and immediately saw
(about five minutes after the second plane struck) what those "technical difficulties" were.
Ironically, KTLA's Lynnette Romero was visiting her parents in suburban New York that very
morning and phoned in a report to Carlos Amezcua and Emmett Miller in Hollywood...

This had to be a typo. What the listing likely was supposed to read was "News Special: NYC
Mayoral Primary".

I still can remember where i was, in the school library, doing a project, and the TV was on
WYFF/4 which was showing the Today Show. At first i was shocked that Today was still on past
8:55 but then i turned up the volume and i learned very quickly that a plane had crashed into the
World Trade Center. i kept doing my project, but when the second plane hit, i dropped it
immediately.

One thing was different from the Original schedule. KARE 11(and NBC) aired alternate

w as pulling a double shift that night at my Radio job 6PM-6AM(but not actually on the air on
the FM till 11 PM) I was running a high school football game that night as it was MEA Wednesday
in Minnesota that week.

Presumably the "fall back" time change occurred that Saturday night and schedules returned to
an Eastern time pattern. Fort Wayne and South Bend had not joined Indianapolis and Lafayette
in delaying network orogramming during the DST months. It would all become a moot point a
few years later.

The ABC cartoon that aired at 11:30 was not 'A Pup Named Scooby Doo', which came a few years
later, but an unrelated Ruby-Spears series called 'The Puppy's New Adventures'.
Channels 8, 20 and 49 from New Haven, Waterbury and Bridgeport, respectively...sounds like
this may have been from the Norwalk, CT area.
The listings are from The Hour -- that's the Norwalk newspaper. Fun fact: Connecticut has
newspapers named The Hour (Norwalk), The Day (New London) and The Time (Greenwich).
What? No channel 41 or channel 47? And the channels in the 60s are missing!
As I said in the beginning, only a few stations were listed.
Thank you for posting this one. I thought it was interesting that indies 5 & 11 carried pre parade
and Rose parade coverage (sans encores) like their LA counterparts did.
I imagine that WNEW used KTTV's coverage, and even they weren't co-owned at the time, WPIX
probably used KTLA's feed. KTTV carried the Rose Parade from 1949 (they signed on the air that
New Year's Day) to 1995; KTLA's sign-on date was 3 1/2 weeks after the 1947 parade, but of
course they've aired it every year since 1948, and it's one of the last few localized non-news
programming that they still produce--the others being the Hollywood Christmas Parade (at one
point, at least here locally, it's prominence was right up there with the Rose Parade) and the L.A.
Marathon.

Did KCNC really air that much news? And do you have any other listings for that day or week?
Before KCNC switched to CBS, they had nothing but newscasts and news related programs when
not airing NBC programming.
True but to be fair KCNC's newscasts weren't always Denver related. Most were though but some
were Colorado related like a top story was about Grand Junction or some mountain town like
Aspen. I think KCNC in those days had a newscast just for Fort Collins too. KCNC-Colorado's News
Channel.
Two years later the Denver stations played network musical chairs with all of the networks
switching affiliates.
...and the switch in networks also there was a change in their newscasts too. Even though KCNC's
the late Bob Palmer said "no change in news" there was. Once they switched networks the
Denver stations not really covered news outside of Denver, Sure if there was a major news story
they cover it but the days of a house fire in Aspen or car accident in Grand Junction they didn't
bother even KCNC.
Any schedules for FOX or Independents from this date?
When KCNC became a CBS O&O, Denver got the normal CBS daytime lineup in order with Bold
and the Beautiful at 12:30pm with Price is Right at 10am. At the same time, KMGH aired the
entire ABC daytime schedule with Loving added back to the schedule. However, it was several
years before they aired OLTL and GH in the correct order.
This paper used a grid format, some programs' names are incomplete.

I think WZDX was actually a Fox affiliate by that point. The USA Tonight program was the last
incarnation of 'Independent Network News (INN)'. The program, designed to give independent
stations the ability to carry a newscast without producing one themselves, ended later that year.
