As sort of a side question for any Clevelanders/Northeastern Ohioans, as I imagine WEWS not
clearing every ABC show, how was WAKR's signal into Cleveland/Cuyahoga County proper?

Assuming that it was powerful then as WVPX is now (5000kw, 296m HAAT), the signal goes past
Cleveland, about 20 miles into Lake Erie:

WAKR-TV had its tower in Akron, so its OTA coverage was in the Akron/Canton corridor. The
Elyria newspaper carried the listings because the station was on cable in Elyria.

...WKYC didn't carry "Tomorrow with Tom Snyder"? Odd, since (a) WKYC was an NBC O&O and
(b) Snyder had been a Channel 3 anchor in the mid-60s (when it was KYW-TV)...

At that time, I lived about a mile from the lake, and the signal for WAKR wasn't all that great.
When ABC was first looking for affilates in the fifties, from what I understand, they were looking
for somebody, anybody to carry their programs. If you recall, ABC was dead last in the ratings
until about 1976.
74WIXYgrad Just a screwball moron who thinks he knows a lot about broadcasting, but
knows nothing according to some afternoon talk show host.

If you've noticed Akron/Cleveland retros from the
'50s and especially the early '60s, WAKR pre-empted
a lot of ABC shows that WEWS carried. I suppose it
wasn't until the late '60s that it became advantageous
to have both.

In the earliest days of Cleveland area TV, WNBK-4 (later 3) being NBC Owned-Operated, was of
course the NBC affiliate. WEWS-TV 5 was at first full-time CBS while then-WXEL-9 was primarily
DuMont and secondary ABC. I found some copies of an early TV magazine (Tele-Vue) from
January-March 1949 that had WEWS carrying some ABC shows months before WXEL signed on
(December 1949)
On March 1, 1955, WJW-8..Now owned by Storer Broadcasting, switched affiliations from ABC
(DuMont was pretty well done by this time) to CBS, while WEWS-5 likely reluctantly, changed
over to ABC from CBS

Only 30 minutes of The PTL Club? Usually it ran 1 to 2 hours in most all areas.

sets even looked alike.
The Bakkers had so many shows back in the 70s and 80s, I think even their own kids had their
own show. However I believe many of thse shows aired only on the old PTL satellite network.
Don't know if any of them were actually synidcated. With that said maybe the Bakkers did offer a
30 minute version of PTL, but this is the first time I heard of that.
BTW..I have seen listings in the past that said "Jim & Tammy", "Jim Bakker", "The Jim Bakker
Show", when it usually was just another name for the "PTL Club".

...PTL offered affiliates a half-hour edit of older celebrity-centered shows under the title "PTL
Prime Cuts." WLRE/26 in Green Bay ran these in prime time in their first couple of years on the
air, 1980-82. I suspect this listing is for that version...

Filling in the blanks on the NFL
NFL games weren't specified because the TV pullout was printed early in the week. Also, it was
the second week back for the NFL after an 8-week players strike.
The likely NFL telecasts for that day in the Bay Area:
10 AM
(4, 3, 8 ) L.A. Raiders at Cincinnati
1 PM
(5, 10, 46) New Orleans at San Francisco
(3, 8 ) Denver at San Diego
(4, 3 and 8 are NBC; 5, 10 and 46 are CBS)
Schedule ascertained via Database Football. It has old NFL results that aren't posted on the
league's website.
When did part 2 of Blood And Honor air on KTXL and KBHK?
On Wednesday, December 1.

I noticed that the Atlanta stations seemed to put off the Sunday morning shows till noon, and
WAGA didn't even air Face The Nation.
I remember that Broncos game, I think it was the playoff that was pounded by snow if I
remember correctly. They went to the Super Bowl three times in the late 80s, losing badly each
time. After the horrific third game against the 49ers, they had enough. It was as bad as Buffalo
loosing FOUR straight Super Bowl games in a row. But it seems after the Broncos won Super
Bowl XXXII, their fortunes have changed, well actually the AFC's fortune changed!
As for the indys, all I have to say is that the 80s and early 90s was the golden era for independent
stations, who were airing classic reruns as well as some great syndicated fare.
Oh wow, while I was typing bpatrick added more! Looks liked except for Loving, the daytime
schedule remained in tact. It was a HUGE mistake for ABC to bump Ryan's Hope in favor of
Loving. RH was a well-established show was still doing okay against Young and the Restless and a
fading Search For Tomorroe in the 12:30 slot, Loving was a terrible show that never stood a
chance.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day... Courage couldn't have come at a
worse time... If there is one thing in this world that makes grown adults act like
immature buffoons it is the discussion of politics

I think at the time Meet The Press aired on NBC at noon;

I don't think it moved to 9 AM until it went to an hour in
the early '90s. Face The Nation does air on WGCL, but
WAGA had bumped it long before. Also, keep in mind
that WSB had aired Meet The Press at 12:30 when it
was an NBC affiliate and probably wanted to keep a
news interview program where people were accustomed
to it; This Week is on at 11 AM nowadays, however.
I totally agree about Ryan's Hope; in its heyday it was
(IMO) the best-written, possibly the best-acted of all
the soaps. ABC should have kept it at 12:30; Loving
never did do much in the ratings, and moving RH to 12,
with a loss of East Coast affiliates to local news, helped
kill that show.
Not all daytime shows aired in pattern; Channel 2 pre-empted
11:30 AM (don't even remember what was on ABC) as well
as Loving; Channel 5 pre-empted $25,000 Pyramid (10 AM);
Channel 11 delayed Wordplay (12:30 on NBC) and Sale Of
The Century (10 AM), and didn't carry Super Password at 12.

True, and I debated whether to put Ind. or Fox
in parentheses by Ch. 36' s heading. IIRC, TV
Guide didn't start using (Fox) to indicate those
affiliates until the spring of 1987, when Fox
introduced a Sunday-night lineup built around
21 Jump Street and Married...With Children.
Also, the Journal-Constitution was still listing
36 as independent in January 1987. But you are

correct, classictvfan.
BTW, as an addendum to my comments about
what daytime programs aired out of pattern or
not at all, Scrabble (NBC, 11:30 AM) wasn't
carried on Channel 11. I don't recall what was
on ABC at that time; Hollywood Squares on
Channel 2 was the John Davidson version, syndicated.
Channel 2 ran Squares at that time because it had
run the Peter Marshall NBC version there from 1966-76
with great success.

I thought that channel 69 was airing $25,000 Pyramid from CBS in the afternoon around this
time, I read on another site they were airining it around taht time and Card Sharks later in its
run.

Re: Retro: Atlanta Friday, January 15, 1988
Well I see not much changed between Jan 87 and Jan 88, although I do see Atlanta's big three
giving more time to morning newscasts, they started taking off in the late 80s and early 90s.

Looks like WATL was airing the worst of 80s sitcoms in reruns...and WVEU was stuck with the

This one surprises me. I knew they had their TV show together on the old TNN network and it
aired in syndication in some areas, but I had no idea it was that old. I thought it came about in
the mid-90s.

Right area, Mr. Patrick, but wrong stadium...it was played at the Los Angeles Coliseum. A side
note BTW, HBO is running a special about how Super Bowl I came about, really good
presentation. I don't know what times it's airing on the main network, but HBO's Video-On-
Demand service has it available right now.

You're right, it was the L.A. Coliseum. Also,
the game was blacked out in Los Angeles;
oddly, it was not a sellout.
To save myself an additional post, I might
mention something about two shows on CBS
that night. IIRC (and I'm taking a chance here),
this was the night the Rolling Stones were forced
by the CBS censor to say "Let's spend some time
together" instead of "Let's spend the night together"
on their Sullivan appearance (the Doors, later that year,
defied the censor and sang "girl we couldn't get much
higher" when they did "Light My Fire"). At least Mick
Jagger and company had the good sense not to buck
Sullivan or CBS; Jim Morrison and company never got
invited back.
Recently I saw a clip of the "Carol Plus Two" special;
something about it looked like "The Carol Burnett Show"
without her regular cast. Wonder if there was any
connection; i.e., was the special some sort of pilot
since her series began that fall?

This would be the 1965 concert from Shea Stadium and this special would be quite ironic since
The Beatles' last concert in the United States would occur at Candlestick Park in San Francisco in
August 1966. I didn't even know that The Beatles ever made any specials like this especially
showing this special just a few months after The Beatles had stopped touring the United States.

Agree with the Buddy synopsis as its LTC on CBS was January 2,
but let's go deeper.
Was channel 42 a bare-bones equipment operation at that time,
with minimal VTRs so it would be difficult to turn around a half-hour
show an hour later (7:00 CT feed time)? Or since they were running
NBC live at 7:00 they were unable (cost perhaps?) to get a second
Telco line for CBS. It's entirely possible they ran this on 16mm film,
using one the reduction print backups (to the 35mm primary) used by
CBS in NYC and TV City which were then bicycled around to affils
that, for whatever reason, couldn't clear it live or tape delay it.
Save AM radio...kill I-CRAP.

Could be, but consider: two years later,
42 was running Ed Sullivan (CBS) live from 7-8
on Sunday nights, followed by The Mothers-
In-Law (NBC) at 8...and the same episode which
had just aired on the network at 7:30! Maybe
their equipment had improved by that time.
I think it's logical that CBS couldn't get
"Run, Buddy, Run" to 42 any sooner, but why
that one particular show, unless it was the
only one not cleared live on 42 (and I don't
have the schedules for the entire week)?

I'm sure bpatrick understood where I was going with this in his response,
but for anyone else, a bit further clarification...
This would mean a higher cost to bring in two loops from the local AT&T
testboard at the same time, as opposed to (and I recall this being discussed
on earlier threads about stations with two net affiliations) one Telco line
which would be switched between nets by the testboard guy during a local
station break.
As "b" noted, this station was doing the "twin network feeds" two years later,
so perhaps by then either channel 42 was willing to shell out the $$$$ or
else AT&T offered them a "rent by the hour" deal on a second loop.

Good question. I seriously doubt that channel 42 had two loops. They barely had enough budget
to cover paper clips, let alone an extra network line!
With all the B'ham stations atop Red Mountain (studios and tx), it's also possible that a single
microwave hop existed between channels 13 and 42. I'm sure channel 13 had two AT&T feeds
(seeing as how they were primary NBC and CBS and all) -- perhaps they fed 42 the network
source it needed.
A former co-worker back in south Alabama used to work as an engineer at WBMG-42 in the late
'60s/early '70s ... maybe he can shed some light.

Somewhat surprised that WMAR didn't carry it at this time but not really surprised that WTOP
chose not too. However most cable systems in that area did offer Richmond's WTVR so chances
are most viewers could have watched it there, except in Winchester, VA where local radio/cable
TV WINC blocked it out.
The apple blossom listings. During the 70s this was actually syndicated nationwide. Not sure how
many markets aired it but I know it aired in Salt Lake City and Little Rock. What viewers saw
outside of Winchester-Harrisonburg was just an hour of one of the parades. Thats a good thing
too since both parades ( Friday's Firefighters Parade and Saturday's Grand Feature Parade ) both
run about 4-5 hours each. Today its more like 2-3 hours each.
I have been told that Tom Bosley from Happy Days and talk show legend Mike Douglas at one
time anchored the parade coverage.
Wonder if WHSV carried the whole parade?

Does anybody remember anything about the show "Husbands, Wives And Lovers" that aired
Friday night at 10 on CBS? All I remember is the title.

WTOP-TV had become WDVM-TV by 1978. The call letters changed to the current WUSA-TV
around 1985.

WTOP did change call letters to WDVM in 1978, but it didn't occur until that fall. I was living in
the (or what use to be) countryside between Warrenton and Culpeper at the time WDVM was
bought buy Gannett and became WUSA on July 4th, 1986 I believe. Shortly afterward I went
westward ho.

About WTOP, I did find this. Its their opening to "Eyewitness News" from around the same time
as these listings.

2 PM The Waltons (Ch. 10 had a

There are 3 comments I would like to make about the schedule for Knoxville television during
this time frame:
1) WSJK, CH. 2, didn't start their broadcast day until 3:00 pm during the week and until about
6:00 pm on the weekends. They didn't expand their broadcasting hours on the weekends until
the mid 70's and their daily broadcast hours until the early 80's.
2) The Golden Gospel Hour was WATE-TV 6's answer to Channel 10's Mull Singing Convention. J.
Bazel & Lady
Mull ruled the Knoxville airways on Sunday mornings for years and Channel 6 tried to compete
against them with the Golden Gospel Hour. They both had a simular format with the Mulls
mainly airing Southern Gospel Quartets and Bill Golden mainly airing videos of more mainstream
gospel singers such as Tony Fontaine and George Beverly Shea. The Golden Gospel Hour only
klasted a few years while the Mulls were still on the air in Knoxville until Rev. Mull's recent death.
3) WBIR Channel 10 was notorious for pre-empting CBS network programming during the week
in order to show movies, special programing or re-runs of shows in syndication and then airing
the pre-empted network shows, such as the Waltons, on Saturday and Sunday afternoons. They
kept this practice up until at least the mid 80's. One such case I can remember was Channel 10
once pre-empted the Grammy Awards to show the special "The Statler Brothers on the
Mississippi River". It wouldn't have been that much of a problem if it weren't for the fact that
particular Statler Brothers special had already aired at three times prior to that airing.

WBIR must have been especially prone to pre-
empting 8 PM shows; in another posting, I
mentioned that Perry Mason aired Tuesdays
7:30-8:30, pre-empting Maude; the movie
airing Thursdays 7:30-9 was obviously intended
to make a double feature with the CBS movie.
WBIR was owned by Multimedia for years, and
you could count on their pre-empting CBS when
Multimedia had a country-music awards show of
some type (Channel 4 in Greenville, SC, although
an NBC affiliate, was their sister station and did
the same thing).
But I also think a number of CBS affiliates were
squeamish about The Waltons that first season;
after all, Flip Wilson had ruled the time slot for
the preceding two years, and ABC had Mod Squad.
The Waltons started so slowly that in December
CBS took out ads in the major newsmagazines,
The New York Times, and The Washington Post,
urging viewers to get behind it. Whether or not
the ad campaign worked, The Waltons hit the
top 20 in the summer of '73; that fall, Mod Squad

was gone and Flip was in his last season...and WBIR
was running The Waltons in pattern.

Did anyone actually WATCH Ch. 40?
Just as amazing is that the station subsisted throughut the 1970s (maybe earlier) on nothing but
religious shows and travelogues, outside of network programming.
I knew WAIM was in the shadow of WSPA (and later, WLOS), but even Akron, Ohio's WAKR (in
the shadow of WEWS) looked good, compared to WAIM.

Back to the '50s, in fact, with the
very same type programming; I
first heard of WAIM when I was a

little kid and it was in the North
Carolina edition of TV Guide. In
the late '60s we moved to Greenville,
SC, which by that time was in the
Carolina-Tennessee edition; WAIM
was in there, and little if anything
had changed about the station.
Interestingly, the station as WAIM
hung on until around 1979, picking
up more ABC shows as that network
got stronger.

Re: Retro: Atlanta Wednesday, February 6, 1980
Why didn't WSB carry Card Sharks? Were Password Plus and Hollywood Squares on a one day
delay since they aired at I think 11:00 and 11:30 AM Central?

Re: Retro: Atlanta Wednesday, February 6, 1980
Hollywood Squares aired on NBC at 10:30 AM; Password
Plus at 12:30, so these would have been on a day-behind
basis. Channel 2 pre-empted Card Sharks (10 AM) and
High Rollers (11 AM) for the same reason it delayed Squares:
Dinah Shore was on from 10-11:30. It also pre-empted the
original Chain Reaction (12 Noon) for local news, and Mary
Tyler Moore aired at 12:30.

At the time, Channel 5 pretty much dominated mornings,
just on the strength of Donahue and The Price Is Right;
The Edge Of Night, Laverne & Shirley, Family Feud, and
Ryan's Hope (one of only two soaps, along with All My
Children, that 11 held to the end of its ABC affiliation)
did OK for Channel 11.
Remember that in 1980 NBC's daytime schedule (especially
in the morning) was a shambles. And it didn't get any better
when 2 turned down David Letterman and Texas, and dropped
everything on the NBC schedule except Days Of Our Lives, in
the summer of 1980. By then, of course, 2 had decided to
go to ABC; 11 took Letterman, Another World, The Doctors,
and Texas about a month before the switch.
But all's well that ends well: once 11 became the NBC affiliate,
it carried all of NBC's daytime schedule except Card Sharks, which
had moved to noon and conflicted with 11's news.

Re: RETRO BOSTON TV- PATRIOTS DAY 1980
I thought that WBZ-4 began it's annual live wire-to-wire broadcasts of the Boston Marathon in
1980. I remember watching it, and if my memory serves me correct, Tony Pepper and Roger
Twibell were co-hosts.
Maybe WBZ's decision to do live wire-to-wire coverage in 1980 was a last-minute decision
(maybe on a few days' notice, but I'm surprised that the Boston Globe's TV listings weren't
updated to reflect the extended coverage). I think WBZ's first TV news copter went into service
in the early Spring of 1980, which would have allowed it to both shoot footage from over the
course, and to relay microwave signals from a truck travelling with the lead runner back to the
station.

Re: RETRO BOSTON TV- PATRIOTS DAY 1980
This was the infamous Rosie Ruiz Boston Marathon.
What exactly is Patriot's Day?
A Massachusetts state holiday, marking the battles of Lexington and Concord, Paul Revere's
ride ... you know, the beginnings of the American Revolution.
It's a holiday which is celebrated in just two states - Massachusetts and Maine, the latter which
used to be the larger part of Massachusetts. (I can't believe that Mass. once bordered Canada at
one time!)

Re: Retro: Fresno. Wednesday, Nov. 23, 1977
For a market as small as Fresno, even back then, they sure had plenty of TV stations.
I saw the KMPH listing for the Lakers-Sonics telecast (two pretty good teams back--in fact, Seattle
won the Western Conference title that season), but didn't the Golden State Warriors have (or
ever had) their games televised in the Fresno market? I could sworn I saw a listing once for a
Warriors telecasts in Fresno.

Re: Retro: Fresno. Wednesday, Nov. 23, 1977
Interesting about KFSN it was a Capital Cities station prior to their surprise purchase of ABC in
1985(which the couldn't have done without the help their biggest owned station, WPVI in
Philly). When Capital Cities merged they decided to keep KFSN, and they changed its affliation
from CBS to ABC, in process selling off historic ABC O&O WXYZ in Detroit(Remember the O&O
limit went from seven to twelve, and they were still over the limit with the merger).
Capital Cities/ABC would end up being bought out by Disney and with the ushering of the
Telecom Act of '96, KFSN still remains to this day an ABC O&O in Market #55
When exactly did KMPH and KAIL sign on?
According to Wikipedia, KMPH signed on October 11, 1971, while KAIL opened in 1961 (though I
thought it went on the air earlier than that).

WTAF seemed to have the better hand at acquiring cartoons. Also note the inclusion of "Scooby-
Doo" and "Josie and the Pussycats" on the WTAF lineup; Taft also owned Hanna-Barbera at the
time of this schedule!

Re: Raleigh NC July 19th 1995
WRDC never--and I mean never--had
any luck with local news; I remember at one
point in the late '70s they had their local news
at 7:30, after John Chancellor (WNCN does a
newscast from 7 to 8, after Brian Williams, and
I think it may do slightly better than 28's newscasts
ever did).
WNCN was still independent in July 1995 (I'm
not sure of the exact date NBC bought it), but
it was less than two months away from becoming
NBC for the Triangle. So if 28 wanted to pre-empt
Nightside, 17 was the logical place for it to go.
WRAL's running B&B at 1, followed by Golden Girls
at 1:30, wasn't exactly the best programming flow;
they eventually put B&B back at 1:30, with a syndicated
show at 1. I seem to recall that B&B aired a day behind,

and when it went back to 1:30 (on a Monday), WRAL
ran Friday's episode at 1, then got back in pattern at
1:30. As The World Turns and Guiding Light are still
in pattern at 2 and 3, respectively (don't look for any
CBS stations in this neck of the woods to move GL to
the morning), and Young And The Restless is still on
at 4.
Can you please post the listing for WUNC-TV 4 (PBS)?
I would if I could but unfortunately I found them off another board a few years ago and they
didn't include WUNC. I saved a bunch of ones that interested me at the time but I've been
deleting them off my computer, and most don't qualify to be retro.
Two strange oddities-there was no local news on WRDC, and WNCN picked up NBC

Not to mention a commercial station airing kids' programming past 10 AM! And I thought the old
WLVI was the only one that dared done that!

When did KOB carry Sanford and Son since it was pre-empted on Friday nights for Hee Haw? I
also noticed that KOB didn't carry Somerset either.
Good question!
Also missing is Guiding Light....

Re: Retro: Albuquerque, Friday, May 3, 1974
I'm always surprised to see Guiding Light missing
from these 1974 Albuquerque schedules. I know
that I went out there in '77, and that I used to
see the New Mexico edition of TV Guide regularly
when I lived in Texas (same time), and that Channel
13 was carrying GL by that time. Of course, in
'74 GL was on at noon (Mountain); in '77 it was on
at 12:30, so my guess is that 13 picked it up in
December '75 when As The World Turns went to
an hour (11:30-12:30), decided to delay ATWT (as it
does today), and put GL on after the noon news
(12:30).

...and that I used to see the New Mexico edition of TV Guide regularly when I lived in Texas
(same time)...
Since the NM edition was used across the state--and time zone--line, did the top of each listings
page have a disclaimer stating the times were Mountain?
...decided to delay ATWT (as it does today)...
Can anyone with an inside to the KRQE-TV brain trust explain why they jumble the CBS daytime
schedule so badly, flipping shows and airing ATWT on a one-day delay? Why not just run it in
pattern 10-12 and 12:30-3 MT? Or if there's something sacred about Y&R being on at 1 and all
the other jumbling, use the alternate feed of GL and air it in the morning (same-day) instead of
ATWT (one day late...maybe...see next).
I was just about to state the same thing about KUTV Salt Lake City's daytime schedule, especially
since it is a CBS O&O (but that never stopped WCBS-TV, WBZ-TV, et al, prior to the alt feed of GL)
when I decided to compare ATWT story lines in the zap2it.com listings on Monday January 29 for
ABQ, SLC and NYC.
The ATWT synopsis listed for WCBS-TV NYC at 2 ET (live feed) is the same as what is listed for
KRQE-TV ABQ at 10 MT! Meanwhile, KUTV SLC at 11 MT shows a different story line which would
indicate one-day behind.
So...CBS Air Control folks and CBS affil MCOs, how can ABQ air the same episode two hours
before it's fed on the network? And if they have some pre-feed access trick up their sleeve, why
doesn't the CBS O&O in SLC do the same thing? Or are the zap2it.com listings incorrect?

Quite why many Mountain Time CBS stations air things out of pattern is unknown to me. Along
with KRQE and KUTV, there is also KKTV(Colorado Springs) and the Montana&Idaho CBS stations.
At one point when I lived in Denver KMGH(when it was CBS) started moving things around,
putting Bold and the Beautiful a day-behind at 10, Price is Right at 10:30, News at 11:30, and
then Young and the Restless at Noon. At one point they even picked up Loving(???) shifting the
schedule around again.
I live in Albuquerque now, and as far as I know As The World Turns is a day-behind. KRQE's
schedule outside of primetime use to be really screwy about 10 years ago before coming to their
current line-up. I think the reason they put Young and the Restless at 1(as opposed to 3PM,
when I first moved here) was to be more competitve for that timeslot, maybe; KRQE was stuck at
#3 forever, and it's only within the last couple of years(snatching popular anchors from other
stations, being bought by Lin TV) their fortunes have changed.
As for feeds, at one point NBC stations could air the soaps(when they had three) whenever they
wanted without delays back in the late 90s. I think it still exists, but most NBC stations air them
in pattern, although not for much longer since Zucker is gung-ho about cancelling soaps right
now.
Since the NM edition was used across the state--and time zone--line, did the top of each listings
page have a disclaimer stating the times were Mountain?
As far as I know, I never saw such a disclaimer. The old NM edition carried El Paso stations, and El
Paso is MT. There are a couple TX satellites in state-line towns, most notably KVIH in Clovis and
KUPT in Hobbs, but no disclaimers for them.

If Channel 13 carried the morning feed of
Guiding Light they'd be airing it at either
7 AM or 8 AM (there are two morning feeds,
at 9 and 10 AM Eastern), much too early
for a soap.
As The World Turns is on the network at
12 Noon (Mountain), which is when a lot
of these Mountain stations have local news,
and there is no alternate feed. Y&R probably
is on at 1 for ratings reasons; to carry
the network feed would mean airing it at

either 10 or 10:30 AM (but in the '70s Y&R
came on in Albuquerque at 10--after
Love Of Life!). If KRQE doesn't want to
run ATWT at noon, it might make more sense
if it did what WTVF Nashville did up until last
fall: delay it until later in the afternoon.
I don't know why, for daytime, the networks
don't simply let the Mountain stations carry the
Pacific feeds (except for the early-morning shows);
Pacific follows Central time, so Mountain would be
on the same schedule as Eastern time (11 AM-4 PM,
with appropriate gaps). Any thoughts?
If Channel 13 carried the morning feed of Guiding Light they'd be airing it at either
7 AM or 8 AM (there are two morning feeds, at 9 and 10 AM Eastern), much too early
for a soap.
To clarify: Not suggesting they air it live, just that they record the alternate morning feed of GL
and air it in their current ATWT slot, with ATWT shifting to an afternoon slot.
It's been common knowledge on the board about the 10am ET alternate feed of GL, when did
CBS begin offering the third (9am ET) feed?
As The World Turns is on the network at 12 Noon (Mountain)...Y&R probably is on at 1 for ratings
reasons; to carry the network feed would mean airing it at either 10 or 10:30 AM
Or just air the whole daytime schedule in pattern on a one-hour delay. Y&R should be just as
strong at 11 MT as at 1, and many CT/MT/PT affils air it in late morning (11 or 11:30 local). They
could opt to flip TPIR with their syndie hour, airing TPIR "live" at 9 (as KPHO-TV PHX does).
I don't know why, for daytime, the networks don't simply let the Mountain stations carry the
Pacific feeds (except for the early-morning shows); Pacific follows Central time, so Mountain
would be on the same schedule as Eastern time (11 AM-4 PM,
with appropriate gaps). Any thoughts?
Don't get me started on "Pacific time plus one hour"--we have to deal with that from our stupid
cable company in PHX (they would like me to mention their name...) that has this love affair with
left coast feeds for cable nets. Cable prime in the winter, 9pm-midnight. Oooooh! >
But back to the idea at hand. I don't think the stations would like it since they'd have to fill until
11, they wouldn't get a news window until 1, and they'd have only one hour in late afternoon for
syndie product...if they had no newsers prior to Jive At Five.
Not sure if this still applies, but years ago the story was that the CBS affils in PHX and TUS could
not just take the left coast satellite for daytime in the summer (where MST clock time matched
the PDT feed) as the network would run some different spots aimed at the coast audience only.
So KOOL-TV and KOLD-TV had to stay with their two-hour delay pattern off the NYC feed, along
with a few spot "cut-ins" of their own from time to time (AZ was a big test market for some
advertisers).
I see your point about taping the GL morning feed. The 9 AM (ET) feed
began back in September, when WBZ Boston moved the show from 10 AM
to 9 in order to carry Rachael Ray at 10; WBZ is a CBS o&o. At the same time,
WKMG Orlando moved GL from 10 to 9, and two stations which were already
carrying it at 9 on a day-behind basis--WSBT South Bend and WGME Portland, ME,
were put on same-day.

The mechanics of this Mountain/Pacific thing are too complicated for my blood,
especially since Arizona stays on MST in the summer. But if the Mountain stations were allowed
to take the Pacific feed, Y&R could still air at 12:30 (it's on in LA
at 11:30 Pacific) and the local news could still air at noon. Anyway, it was just an idea.
And I need to clarify something. I should have said "same year" instead of "same time" when I
mentioned living in Texas and going to Albuquerque in '77. I may have implied I lived in El Paso;
actually, I lived in Dallas which, of course, is Central time, one hour ahead of Albuquerque.

...how far back did "The Val de la O Show" start production? It was an Albuquerque-based talk
show that shifted between English and Spanish interviews and music. I recall it was syndicated in
the early '80s and appeared in Chicago on WBBS-TV/60 on Sunday nights in 1984 just before the
Spanish-tracked version of "Southwest Championship Wrestling"...

Well...First off all....I believe ABC had asked KMGH 7 to carry Loving once it became very clear to
ABC that KMGH wanted to sign with them instead of going with NBC since KUSA 9 wasn't even
carrying it at all (Not even late at night or on a one day delay). That's why they did that.
Also, let's not forget KCNC 4's carrying of Search For Tomorrow in the awkward time slot of 10:30
AM back in the '80s when NBC first picked up the show from CBS. This was also at a time when
KUSA 9 could barely make a go of carrying a morning soap opera with Ryan's Hope at that hour.
In addition, many years later, KCNC 4 also carried Guiding Light on a one day delay at 9:00 AM,
though this move didn't last long. As a result, the show is now back on at it's familiar 2:00 PM
time slot.

In the move to NBC, wasn't SFT returned to it's longtime 12:30 ET slot?
So KCNC-TV would have taken the live feed at 10:30 MT.

Judging from this schedule one has to wonder this:
Network evening news at 12Mid?
No "Captain Kangaroo" on KGMB?
Where's "Today"?
The Hawaii stations sure had a weird lineup.

The Hawaii stations sure had a weird lineup.

This is 1972, long before the nets went to satellite feeds. It was all Telco lines back in the 48
contiguous.
Most of the programming was shipped over (tape, maybe even some 16mm film--I'm not sure)
and likely aired a week late.
The evening newsers were flown over from El Lay each day after being recorded at 3:30pm PT
(probably on the United DC-8 you see in the Hawaii Five-O open ;D) for airing late night. Appears
the three HI affils all agreed to air them at midnight.

I acutally read on this board recently someone was saying that most shows in Hawaii were
delayed at least a week because obviously, THIS IS 1972, so not airing Today makes sense. Would
you want to watch at the minimum a day old show of Today? :

Re: Retro: Eastern North Carolina Monday, September 15, 1980
It was a very cheesy live-action show from
Japan, with dubbed-in English. Turner seemed
to be fond of these shows--or he got them for
a song; he had one called "Spectreman" as well.

...I see in Part 1 of this post that Knoxville's NBC affiliate, WATE/6, also aired this combination,
and that Richard Dawson appeared on both shows that season. WATE wasn't a satellite of WSOC,
was it? How many other NBC affiliates did this scheduling in the Autumn of '72?...

Re: Retro: Carolina/Tennessee Monday, October 9, 1972 (Part 2)

Nope, just a coincidence. WSOC was and is
owned by Cox; WATE at the time by Nationwide
Communications (now Young Broadcasting).
Incidentally, both stations are now ABC affiliates
(WSOC switched in 1978, WATE in 1979).
I'm not sure how many NBC affiliates carried
I've Got A Secret in that particular version.
I was living in Birmingham, and our then-ABC
affiliate, WBRC/6, carried it on Thursdays at
6:30 (Central); it was also carried on the
then-ABC affiliate in Atlanta, WQXI (WXIA),
on Sundays at either 7 or 7:30. Channel 11
carried the whole Goodson-Todman triad, with
What's My Line? at 7 and To Tell The Truth at
7:30 Monday-Friday (Channel 6 carried Truth
but not Line).
I keep thinking WRC/4, NBC in Washington, DC,
carried Secret but I'm not sure and could use some
help on this one.

Re: Retro:Cleveland/Akron/Canton, Ohio Saturday April 26, 1969
77 Sunset Strip was a black and white show the entire time it was a series. Sometimes TV Guide
did this, even Dennis The Menace was listed as a color program when it was a black and white
show for all 4 years of the show.
However, The Man From U.N.C.L.E peaks of curiosity since the 1st season was in black and white
and the rest of the series was in color. How did TV Guide determine which episode of Man From
U.N.C.L.E was going to be used besides an episode synopsis? They could have aired a first season
episode that day but TV Guide showed it in the listings as a color program.
And why did WEWS air American Bandstand at 7:30 AM in the morning? Was this a one week
delay while the rest of the ABC stations that aired American Bandstand in pattern aired the live
episode of the show?

As the Man from UNCLE went forward, the scripts got a bit more wild and unrealistic:
"Ilya clashes with the Captain of a ship carrying a THRUSH tidal wave machine" Thus this episode
was probably after the first season..
As far as TV 5 carrying Bandstand at 7:30 AM..It was almost certainly a week delay..Plus they had
their own dance show. (Upbeat)..WEWS had always been relatively independent as far a major
network affiliates go anyway, routinely carrying a movie package locally during ABC Primetime in
the 1960's and early 70's.

Love these old TV listings, thanks!
Now, 1969 is well before my time, but I can't help but to notice something about the Akron and
Canton programming: there are two country music programs.
Can I assume that it was strictly a regional thing? My general social or historical perception is
that folks living in the lakeshore counties (and Youngstown) might be more apt to want to watch
something like a polka show...while in Akron/Canton/Ravenna/etc. there were many people who
had come to find better work from WV and points south, and might enjoy country music more?
Or is this totally off-base?
I grew up in Northern Summit County in the 80's/90's, so I got the best of both worlds. ;D

I don't think so really. WJAN-17 and WAKR-23 had a number of the syndicated shows..(Wilburn
Brothers, Pop Goes The Country, Porter Wagoner, Country Carnival, etc.).As time went by,
WUAB-43 had some of these shows as well..17 even had a live Saturday night country show from
some Canton bar..Also WSLR-AM 1350 was the Country Music Giant in the area..

A lot of people who became residents of the Akron/Canton area came from
WV and points south. This was due to the blossoming rubber industry which
had a lot of jobs available at the factories such as Goodyear and Firestone.
There was even an old joke that used to be popular about those days that
"Akron was the capitol of West Virginia".....

As a result, Channel 49 (23's predecessor) used to run shows like Ozark
Jubilee, Porter Wagoner, Grand Ol' Opry, and others to serve that sizeable
segment of audience.

Running American Bandstand at 7:30am is wrong...just wrong.

You could have been in Dallas. WFAA didn't
run Bandstand at all (at least not in the '70s
and '80s).
If you think WEWS' scheduling of Bandstand
is bizarre, WVEC Norfolk, VA used to run Where
The Action Is at 8 AM (their kids' show Bungles
And His Friends aired at 4:30 PM, when Action
was on ABC).

While we're at it, Bandstand almost never ran in Boston - certainly not WNAC (now WHDH; 7 ran
Charlie Chan movies in its place) nor WCVB (Candlepin Bowling aired for years in that time spot).
I believe WSBK TV-38 had Bandstand briefly in the mid to late 1970s.

WNAC-TV never ran Bandstand into the 1960's and 70's. The Channel 7/ABC affiliation was not
exactly a "marriage made in heaven". WNAC had a pain in the a** tendency to delay or simply
pre-empt a LOT of ABC programs. Case in point, afternoons from 2:00-6:00 PM, they ran Ed
Miller's Dialing-For-Dollars Movie and Hank Bouchard's "Money Movie" instead of the ABC soaps
or the game show line up (Dating Game and The Newlywed Game block which they ran on a
tape delayed basis in the mornings). It wasn't until January 13, 1969, did Channel 7 finally run
the very popular soap "Dark Shadows". WSBK-TV ran 1 week delayed Black and White
kinescopes of the soap until Channel 7 finally ran the "live" (show was on tape) color feed from
ABC at 4:00 PM. It was an instant hit. I was a big DS well before 1/13/69 fan by watching it in
color on Channels 6 or 9. Channel 38's prints of the soap were pretty bad.
Now back to WHDH-TV Channel 5 and ABC.... while the original WHDH-TV (Channel 5) was an
ABC affiliate (1957-1961), they DID run Bandstand with both the afternoon (weekday) and
Saturday versions. WSBK-TV ran Bandstand in the 1966-1968 live from the network, as did
WMUR-TV (Channel 9) and WTEV (Channel 6). I watched it on 38. 38 also ran Dick Clark's "It's
Happening" (not the sit-com) back in 1968.

(sorry, I don't know how this qoute system works) I think this station got to pick and choose what
they wanted from any source, regardless of what a network was offering.

"I think this station got to pick and choose what they wanted from any source, regardless of

I think this was fairly typical in one-station markets in the 50s and 60s. I grew up in a big market
(L.A.) with 7 stations, but at that time, the TV Guide listed all Southern California stations. As late
as the early 60s, Santa Barbara's only station (KEYT) carried shows from all 3 networks. It looked
like they got to cherry-pick what they wanted. It later became an ABC affiliate.
On a trip in the late 60s, I stayed overnight in a Redding (CA) motel. Their news featured a local
Redding anchor, but the reports he introduced came from all 3 networks' evening news
programs.
Los Angeles Prime Time Easter Sunday 1958
April 6, 1958, Los Angeles--lucky L.A.--SEVEN channels to choose from!
NOTE:The only Easter programming that day was in the daytime--KTTV (independent channel 11)
telecast the Easter Sunrise Services at the Hollywood Bowl from 4:50am to 6:10am, then signed
off until 11am! KNXT (CBS Channel 2) carried Easter Mass from Boston at 7am then an Episcopal
service from the National Cathedral in Washington at 8am. KRCA (NBC Channel 4) aired a film at
9am called "The Easter Vigil". At 11 am came "Easter With the Stars" on KABC (ABC Channel 7)
and independent KTTV telecast the Beverly Hills Easter Parade at 1pm. Then as now, Channels 2,
4 and 7 were owned by their respective networks
KTLA Channel 5 was owned by Gene Autry, KTTV Channel 11 by the Los Angeles Times
newspaper,KCOP Channel 13 by The San Diego Union newspaper, KHJ Channel 9 by RKO General.

Re: Los Angeles Prime Time Easter Sunday 1958
A couple of things I noticed, and remember from my early childhood in 58 - Dan Smoot was one
of a number of right-wing anti-communist types who had daily 15 minute commentary programs
on the various LA independents. One of the others was Dr. Harold Fishman, who we all know
today as grandfatherly news anchor Hal.
Bill Welsh who anchored the late news and sports on KTTV was Channel 11's sole anchor for
their Rose Parade coverage for many years - at least into the late 70s.

Wonder why the telecast (and service?) started so early. El Lay sunrise that day
was not until 0535 PST. (DST did not begin then until the last Sunday in April.)

KTLA Channel 5 was owned by Gene Autry
...not yet. Autry bought KTLA in 1964 (Tom Snyder worked in their news department at the time
and told me everyone on the staff thought Autry was crazy for laying out the amount of money
that he did). Before that, KTLA was owned by Paramount Pictures, and had carried kinescopes of
DuMont network programming in the late '40s...

I stand corrected and should have consulted the "KTLA at 45" documentary that I still have on
VHS before posting. I was going by memory. Thank You! unfortunately, the forum system wont
let me edit at this point. However, I have read from several sources that KTTV became the
DuMont affilliate in the early 50s after William S Paley had to buy back Channel 2 in 1951.
Channel 2 was allocated to CBS around 1945, but Paley sold it to Don Lee because he thought
that TV was still years away from being of any commercial practicality. Oops!

...I suspect Steve Allen had moved his show to Los Angeles by this time, thus he would have
been a colorcast, albeit by videotape. Dinah Shore would definitely have been in color (I think
L.A. productions were primarily color by this time while there were still some black&white items
originating from New York)...

...interesting to see Westinghouse sending NBC's Jack Paar off to the Cleveland ABC affiliate in
order to clear their own syndicated "PM East/PM West" (first hour with Mike Wallace and Joyce
Davidson in New York, last half-hour with Terrence O'Flaherty in San Francisco). Did
Westinghouse also bump Paar in Boston? Also odd how Youngstown joined Paar at 11:20, which
would have meant halfway into Paar's opening monologue...

Wow, my first Christmas! Not that I remember any of it...
Slightly OT, but Jack Paar is listed as being in color. Was The Tonight Show broadcast in color
during Carson's early years, too? The few highlights shown from that time, like the Ed Ames
tomahawk throw, are shown in b/w, but are they maybe just b/w kinescopes?

..."The Tonight Show" went color about midway through Paar's reign. It was also regularly
videotaped from early in the Paar tenure, but any preservation was done by kinescope up to the
point in the early '70s when Carson demanded and got co-ownership of the show from NBC.
Paar's prime-time show was produced in the same studio on the same equipment as Carson's
"Tonight Show" (Paar taped on Sundays while Carson taped on weeknights); when Paar took his
show to London or Honolulu, the show had to be kinescoped, for which Paar made a comic
opening film clip of a photo of a zebra against a black background, with Paar intoning the show
was brought to its viewers in "glorious black&white" (the clip appears on one of the episodes in
the Paar DVD set released by Shout! Factory just after he died)...

I didn't realize the Washington Cathedral service
had been broadcast for so long; I thought that
was distributed by the Allbritton stations (WJLA
in the nation's capital). I suppose that's because
I've been watching every Christmas for the last
twenty years or so but not prior.
On a secular note, did WEWS pre-empt Camouflage
and American Bandstand regularly?

From other schedules I've done in the past, it seems Channel 5 did carry the afternoon
Bandstand more often than not into the early 1960's..TV 5 just seemed to want to put a holiday
special there..
As far as ABC Noon ET programming I don't believe Channel 5 ever carried it very often..The
Captain Penny "Noon Show" got pretty good ratings throughout the 1960's..And They have had
news either at 12 Noon or 12:30 PM for probably over 45 years..
As an aside, I know I post a lot of Christmas or near Christmas dates..I have a special fondness for
that time of the year..especially when it comes to TV Holiday specials and such.

Re: Retro: Atlanta Friday, April 9, 1971

7 AM Bullwinkle (delay from Sunday
11 AM)
...or possibly not. I recall that around this time WLUK/11 Green Bay ran half-hour blocks of the
syndicated "Rocky & His Friends" 15-minute package version of the same cartoons on weekday
mornings, and the Oshkosh Daily Northwestern would publish it as being "Bullwinkle" in its TV
listings, even though WLUK was also running the weekend "Bullwinkle Show" from ABC in
network feed pattern...

Re: Retro: Atlanta Friday, April 9, 1971
In this case, it was a delay. Ch. 11 had a local
public-affairs show, "Countdown From Eleven,"
on Sundays at 11 AM. By 1972 Bullwinkle and
the rest of ABC's Sunday-morning kids' block was
airing in pattern in Atlanta, however, and that
continued for a couple of years until the station
decided to go after more money with paid religion.

Although this show aired on independents across the United States, this is the first time I've
heard of Solid Gold on Canadian TV. Did it air on any other stations north of the border?

Reception issues, maybe? Signals from satellites often come in clearer than microwaved signals,
especially if the latter involved several hops.
WDIV (NBC) and WXYZ (ABC) was also part of the CANCOM package, though apparently, the
cable system opted for the Bangor signals instead.

The WABI feed wasn't microwaved up that far, from what I could gather. WABI wasn't carried in
nearly as many places in Atlantic Canada as WVII or WLBZ - I think really only Saint John and
Moncton NB back then. Here in Fredericton the 3rd US slot was filled with multi-network WAGM
from Presque Isle.
As for Galaxie - this is the first I ever heard of it - I don't ever recall Fredericton getting it. Looks
like mostly TVOntario kids shows. ASN and Maine Public Television picked most of those up...

Halifax had it too- I have a 1986 Chronicle-Herald TV supplement that lists both WABI and WJBK.

And an interesting fact about Cable Atlantic, the St. John's cable system...its owner was none
other than Danny Williams, the current Premier of Newfoundland & Labrador...he sold the
company to Rogers a few years ago.

Revisiting this thread...
Maybe that would explain why the picture quality on a 1985 ABC tape I located earlier this week
was very bad at times; the microwave signal for WVII came and went in the final 30 minutes of
the ABC Sunday Night Movie, though it was good enough for me to capture to computer a
promo for the 57th Academy Awards hosted by Jack Lemmon.

Revisiting the thread again...
One Detroit tape I located a while back was dated 2/13/1986 based on other events that were
about to happen a few days later. At some point between 4/24/1985 and 2/13/1986, the
switchover on cable from Bangor's NBC and ABC stations to Detroit's occurred.

Re: Pittsburgh (Friday October 3, 1969)
I'm surprised that the ABC station in Pittsburgh didn't pick up One Life To Live and Dark Shadows
and that WPGH carried both especially Dark Shadows airing in the early evenings instead of the
4:00 PM Eastern timeslot. WPGH also picked up 2 CBS shows in daytime, Where The Heart Is and
As The World Turns, another surprise here as well. WPGH picked up ABC's Joey Bishop Show(late
night) as well but it wouldn't last much longer after that, the last show was the week after
Christmas.

KDKA for years would program either Mike Douglas or local shows like Pittsburgh 2day in the 1
or 1:30 time slot and not carry As The World Turns. WKBN 27 Youngstown practically from their
1953 sign on through at least the late 1970's maybe early 80's wourld program 12:30 local news
and a 12:35-2:00 Movie..pre-empting CBS soaps all that time.

I'm surprised that the ABC station in Pittsburgh didn't pick up One Life To Live and Dark Shadows
and that WPGH carried both especially Dark Shadows airing in the early evenings instead of the
4:00 PM Eastern timeslot. WPGH also picked up 2 CBS shows in daytime, Where The Heart Is and
As The World Turns, another surprise here as well. WPGH picked up ABC's Joey Bishop Show(late
night) as well but it wouldn't last much longer after that, the last show was the week after
Christmas.
To touch up on Pittsburgh daytime pre-emptions, KDKA also passed on "Love Is A Many

Splendored Thing", which CBS carried at 2PM/ET at the time.

WPGH had a schedule that really rocked. Too bad they weren't on very long.

How do you figure WPGH was not on long? As far as I know, they are now the FOX affil, or did I
miss something? But maybe I'm suffering a senior moment. My memory is U. S. Communications
put 5 indies on the air in the mid-late sixties---WPGH, WXIX, WATL, WPHL, and maybe KEMO/20
in San Francisco. The company as a whole encountered serious financial problems, but WPGH,
WPHL, and WXIX were able to stick it out and eventually thrive. But I'd be interested in knowing
if I'm wrong......

I think he meant WPGH-53's short tenure under U.S. Communications, which lasted from its
sign-on in January 1969 to its sign-off in February 1971. WPGH would not return to the
Pittsburgh TV airwaves until January 1974. Plus you have to remember that this was the station's
second attempt to compete in the Pittsburgh TV market; Its first one was from July 1953 to
August 1954 when it was WJKF. The reason the station didn't last long in its first two attempts
was money and being on a high UHF channel (53).

US Communications pulled the plug on WPGH on Monday, August 16, 1971. A very sad day in
Pittsburgh TV history.
I was going to post that error, but thanks anyway.

Thanks for the memories! But there is a minor problem with the noon hour. Jeopardy was
definitely still on the air at noon Eastern back then. I was 15 at the time and my memory is pretty
good on this. And the New York Jeopardy set (with the old sliding cards on the board) was still in
use at least a year later because an SNL sketch in '76 used it for a parody.
I don't think so. You're probably referring to the original syndicated weekly version with Art
Fleming; if memory serves me correctly, the original network version ended January 3, 1975. You
may be right about the SNL sketch.
I'm afraid RALfan is right. NBC and Merv agreed
to trade the last year on the Jeopardy! contract
for his new show, Wheel Of Fortune. The last
network telecast of the first Fleming version of
Jeopardy! was on January 3, 1975; Wheel debuted
Monday, January 6. The syndicated access version
with Fleming lasted only the 1974-75 season.
I stand corrected. I guess my mind is going. It's hell getting old. ;-)
That ending date should be April 11, not April 15.
We should both be corrected; the end date should have been April 18. My bad.

Re: ABC Network Schedule September 12-December 26, 1972

Castleman and Podrazik's "The TV Schedule Book"
shows ABC News at 6. They're indicating the first
feed, since there was a lot of variation in the times
it was carried by the individual stations. For example,
where I live, WGHP/8 Greensboro/Winston-Salem/High
Point carried ABC News at 6, followed by the game show
Anything You Can Do at 6:30. WRAL/5 Raleigh/Durham,
OTOH, did its local news at 6, followed by Smith and
Reasoner at 6:30. And a little farther up the road,
Channel 7 in Washington, DC, carried ABC News at 7.
Was December 26 your cutoff date because the following
Tuesday Dick Cavett had been worked into the Wide World
Of Entertainment rotation?

Thanks for that bit of information. I figured that most stations, particularly on the East Coast/EST
zone, aired ABC News at 6:30. BTW, where can I get a copy of "The TV Schedule Book"?

Yes, as a matter of fact, it was.

Try looking at www.abebooks.com or www.alibris.com
for "The TV Schedule Book." Type in Castleman for
author, and TV Schedule Book for title. But don't expect
to pay less than $25.00 for a copy; the book has been
out of print for about 15 years.
As for East Coast ABC affiliates running network news
at 6 in 1972, remember that ABC wasn't as competitive
as it is now. Later in the decade, when "World News
Tonight" began to challenge CBS, Eastern ABC affiliates
tended to move the broadcast to 6:30, and the early
feed became almost the exclusive property of affiliates
in the Central time zone (5 PM). In 1982 ABC discontinued
the 6/5 Central feed.

...in fact, in the late '60s WLUK/11 Green Bay didn't have a local early news, and they took the
5:00 Central ABC feed and filled 5:30 to 6:30 with the hour long edit of Mike Douglas' talk show...

I'm drawing a blank on "Ladies' Man"...Anybody remember it?
I believe "Ladies' Man" (not to be confused with another recent short-lived CBS sitcom with
Alfred Molina) starred Lawrence Pressman (aka Dr. Canfield from "Doogie Howser") as a male
women's magazine writer.
Is the Saint the same The Saint tv series Roger Moore starred in back the '60s?
...at least it was the same character, Simon Templar. As I recall, CBS ran both the original Roger
Moore series and a revival, "Return of The Saint," starring Ian Ogilvy, around this time, and at
one point alternated weeks of the Moore and Ogilvy versions in the same time slot...they did the
same with "The Avengers" and "The New Avengers"...

...hah! Donahue TWICE in daytime and Limbaugh buried in the middle of the night to burn off
the contract. That's great ;-) ...
Remember that Detroit was in Eastern Daylight time and Sasketchewan was Central Standard,
two hours earlier than Detroit. Meaning that Rush was on at 6AM in Detroit. Middle of the
night? No. Start of morning rush hour? Yes.
...not according to Bluenoser's note at the beginning of the listings that the out-of-province
stations were listed as Central Time, thus 5:00 A.M. for Michigan. For most Detroit folk, that's
still not morning drive time...
But also keep in mind that Sasketchewan does not observe Daylight Savings Time, while
Michigan does. If you've noticed the schedules for WDIV and WXYZ below, you'll notice that the
Today show and Good Morning America are scheduled at 5AM -- 7AM in Detroit.
Could you please put Saskatchewan listings for Saturday August 21 1993 up next?

I find it interesting that at this early date (1966) There were 3 independents in

time..

Re: Retro:Philadelphia UHF TV Friday April 1, 1966
I think Phildelphia was big enough to support three
independents; what's interesting is that they were
UHF, whereas New York had three VHF independents
and Los Angeles had four.
Some of these schedules remind me of Atlanta a
few years later, when Channel 17 there used to
pick up Jeopardy! and Who, What Or Where, pre-empted
on WSB; and, very briefly, when ABC ran Password at
12:30 Channel 11 pre-empted it and 17 picked it up on
delay (11 AM next day, IIRC). WSB carried Mike Douglas
at 12:30 from 1969-72, before replacing him with Merv
Griffin.

Surprising to see Channel 6 WFIL passing on ABC's "Where The Action Is".
I realize that many ABC affiliates at this time were passing on it (Many local stations wanted that
4 - 5 PM network slot back for syndicated programming or movies where they could sell the ad
time), but the station was the birthplace of Dick Clark's "American Bandstand". One would figure
that as a former local host, his programming, such as "Where The Action Is", would warrant
carriage on the Philly network affiliate, or his local popularity would still be such that the ratings
would support it.
At least it got cleared on the indy, Channel 29.
...I wouldn't be surprised if WFIL-TV was ticked off with Clark for moving "American Bandstand"
to Hollywood in the early '60s. It was what gave WFIL national fame, and by 1966 the big
Philadelphia TV production had become "The Mike Douglas Show" on competitor KYW-TV/3...

The listings say Atlanta vs. Mobile. Normally,
that means the visiting team is listed first, but
I don't know if there was any prohibition against
Channel 5's carrying the Crackers' home games.
So it is possible that this was a doubleheader
played in Atlanta. I didn't know it took so long
for the coaxial cable to reach Mobile. Did their
first station sign on in 1954?

WKAB later became the call letters of Channel
32 (ABC) in Montgomery; those call letters have
been changed a couple of times since, to WHOA
and then WMCF (I think that's right).

It's WNCF. Meant to reflect their positioning statement for their (now-defunct) news
department: Where News Comes First. The station changed their calls then dropped news a few
months later. Actually, I think now they are getting some form of "centralized" news updates
from some outfit in Iowa.

Actually, WMCF is Channel 45, the TBN affiliate in Montgomery.

Two stations in the same market with almost-
identical call letters does get confusing, but you're
all right that WMCF is Channel 45 and WNCF is
Channel 32.
At least I don't have the same problem with
KING and KONG in Seattle.

I ran across a website on WSB's history the other day. Televised Crackers
games did come from Ponce de Leon Park in Atlanta. WSB had them around
1949; later they went back and forth between WAGA and WLW-A (now WXIA).
WSB was the Braves' flagship station from the time they came to town in 1966
until about 1973 (somebody correct me on this), and Ted Turner bought the
team soon after, having acquired the games for Channel 17.
I think the first year that the Braves were on Channel 17 was either '75 or '76, whichever was the
first year that Skip Caray and Pete Van Wieren replaced Milo Hamilton. That was also the first
year that a lot of their regional TV affiliates changed (in Birmingham they moved from WAPI-13
[now WVTM] to WBMG-42 [now WIAT]. I don't ever recall Milo Hamilton on any of the
broadcasts that were shown on Channel 42. And, please, don't ask me how I remember that!
Milo Hamilton's last year with the Braves was 1975, and he left for Pittsburgh with the Pirates
the following years. In fact, before he finally settled in Houston (replacing another recent Hall of
Fame inductee, Gene Elston), he bounced quite a bit.
Here's Hamilton's Baseball Hall of Fame profile:
http://www.baseballhalloffame.org/ho...ilton_milo.htm
...it's a shame that Harry Caray, so Hamilton says, had such a low opinion of Hamilton as a co-
worker (and vice versa). Milo was vastly superior to the bunch that replaced him as Harry's
sidekick since then. Also interesting to realise that, while supporting Bob Elson as a White Sox
announcer in the early '60s, Milo was also a disc jockey for WCFL...
To put it mildly, Caray & Hamilton had a history going back to the '50s when both were in St.
Louis doing Cardinal baseball and some college basketball games. It finally blew up in 1982 when
Caray came over to the Cubs from the White Sox after Jack Brickhouse retired. Brickhouse (who
was also WGN Sports Director and was responsible for hiring the announcers) had anointed
Hamilton as his successor a few years earlier, but reneged on the deal when Caray became
available.
Hamilton (erroneously) always blamed Caray for the backstabbing, but it was Brickhouse that
handled the situation badly - a fact he admitted in his autobiography. But Caray & Hamilton
never liked each other even before that.
And Hamilton was definitely not superior to Caray as a play-by-play man, a fact that Caray was
alleged to rub in Milo's face at regular intervals (Caray was suprisingly difficult to work with even
when sober). They were equal at best. Hamilton is an excellent play-caller, similar to an Ernie
Harwell or Vin Scully, but he never had much personality and as such, was a combustible mixture
when paired with Caray. Personality counts as much, if not more than ability when calling a
baseball game. Both could call a game (at least when Caray was in his prime pre-1980), but Caray
was considered superior due to his colorful persona and there's nothing Milo Hamilton will ever
be able to do to change that.
...I hope you're not suggesting that I said Milo was superior to Harry. He wasn't. But as a contrast
and supportive compliment to Harry's colourful approach, Milo still had the goods to be much
better than, say, Steve Stone or Dewayne Staats...
No, but Milo certainly thought that.
Trouble was, Harry could never really mesh with another PBP man in the booth at the same
time. Yeah, I know he was paired up with Jack Buck for 15 years, but IIRC, they split their time in
the booth and didn't do many innings together. They weren't best buddies either from what I've
heard, but they at least tolerated each other and had a mutual professional respect.
Harry worked best with a good analyst, the best-known being Gabby Street (when they were
doing the Browns' games together), Jimmy Piersall (White Sox), & Steve Stone (Cubs). Street was
way before my time (in the 1940s), and I thought Piersall complimented Caray much better than
Stone did until after Harry had his 1987 stroke and Stone had to take on more of the load.
The other play-callers that were with Harry in his last years were there to give him a rest due to
his declining health, as well as work the radio side. Staats, Wayne Larrivee, & Thom Brennaman
are who I'm talking about here. They were rarely paired up from what I remember.

I was just curious as to why they delayed Ed Sullivan and Arthur Godfrey to another night? Didn't
WRGB have a direct coaxial cable connection to CBS in 1950?

At this point, WRGB was primarily NBC. They had an NBC Hookup for sure but maybe not for CBS
or ABC. As NBC was the primary Network, They would probably get priority on live feeds.

On this schedule are at least four CBS shows that aired
in pattern: Suspense, Ken Murray, Fred Waring, and
Celebrity Time. I think that in the case of Sullivan, the
Colgate Comedy Hour was the higher-rated of the two
shows on Sundays at 8.
I've posted before that WFMY/2 Greensboro, NC, a CBS
primary affiliate, carried Colgate instead of Sullivan on
Sundays until 1953, when the Triad got an NBC affiliate.
Likewise, WFMY carried Firestone on Monday nights instead
of Talent Scouts, although this makes little sense: Talent
Scouts was number one (or close to it) in the early 1950s.
Maybe the highbrow nature of the Firestone show was worth
a couple of FCC brownie points.
WRGB's schedule doesn't look radically different from those in
one-station markets here in North Carolina and Virginia (Greensboro,
Charlotte, Richmond, Norfolk) in those days. All of them tried to
carry as many of the top-rated shows as possible, but since they
could carry only one show at a time, something had to be delayed.
The program directors must have had a tough time making some of
these calls.

In 1967, floodwaters hit Fairbanks and KTVF suffered the most damage; their studios were at the
basement of the Northward Building while KFAR remained high and dry on Second Ave. Channel
2 had already started colorcasting while Channel 11 moved to the second floor -- where they
remained until 1990 when they moved to Van Horn Road -- and returned to the air at the end of
the year, this time in color. Both stations were still doing local programs in black and white until
the early '70s when they finally got their first color studio cameras.

I wonder what the folks in places like Nome and Barrow had for TV back in 63. Did they even
have TV at all? Or were the Fairbanks or Anchorage TV signals relayed to them?
Nome, Barrow, and the rest of rural Alaska didn't get any TV until the mid-1970s, when the state
launched RATNET (Rural Alaska Television Network). It became ARCS (Alaska Rural
Communications Service) in 1995 after budget cuts, which also led to PBS stations KUAC
(Fairbanks), KTOO (Juneau), and KYUK (Bethel) becoming AlaskaOne. The other PBS station,
KAKM in Anchorage, decided to be on their own.
ARCS is still on the air, despite digital cable and DirecTV/Dish Network reaching into some rural
area homes in the last few years. The only way it'll be pulled the plug is if Comcast acquires GCI
(current cable provider) with an intention to expand service to rural Alaska...something that GCI
has failed to do.

Re: RETRO: Fairbanks, Alaska (April 18, 1963)
First, when did Fairbanks get a fulltime ABC affiliate?
Second, I wonder if anyone has any Honolulu schedules
for the same date or close to it? Since Alaska and Hawaii,
in that pre-satellite era, got their shows sometimes a week
or more after the continental U.S. saw them, it would be
interesting (to me, at least) to "compare notes" and see
what was airing when in Hawaii, too. And doesn't Guam
still get shows several days after the continental U.S.?

Hi everyone:
Second, I wonder if anyone has any Honolulu schedules
for the same date or close to it? Since Alaska and Hawaii,
in that pre-satellite era, got their shows sometimes a week
or more after the continental U.S. saw them, it would be
interesting (to me, at least) to "compare notes" and see
what was airing when in Hawaii, too.
Yes it would.
And doesn't Guam
still get shows several days after the continental U.S.?
I would think not. If anything, they should get it on a ONE day delay (In other words, what soap
episodes which are aired on Monday here would be aired on Tuesday on Guam).
That said, it'd be interesting to compare notes with Guam as well.

Because Guam is on the other side of the International
Date Line, programs air a day later (what airs on Friday
night here airs Saturday night there). For example, the
Walter Cronkite and Dr. Phil specials airing tonight on CBS
in the continental U.S. are scheduled for Saturday there.
They're on the Central/Mountain version of prime time
(7-10 PM).
But I wouldn't mind seeing what their schedules looked
like in the pre-satellite era.

But even in the satellite era, until last year, Guam got their television programming -- network
and cable -- on a week delay basis, except for sports (which was seen live) and network news
(which was seen in the evening).

I'd still like to see some of their old schedules.
I didn't realize they'd just gone on a day-behind
(actually, I think about nine hours if you allow for
the time difference, which I believe is fifteen hours)

Actually, the series WGBO carried were likely his second series, known simply as "Downey", that
originated from Palm Springs, CA, which took place between his Secaucus (his first) and Chicago
(his third) series. Also, if you noticed the schedule, this series was a half-hour long (the others
were 60 minutes each).
Mort's second series took place on a set that resembled a bar, and lacked the same bite (no pun
intended) that the others had.

certainly post the evening listings for Fri 29th.

This has got to be a mistake or did Showtime actually air on two Chicago stations at once? I
understand that it was a show that was sold to most (if not all) of the NBC O&O's.
That's a typo...NBC5 has Apollo. Can't remember at the moment what WBBM showed in the
time slot...
Checked the TeleGuia...Lillehammer aired on CBS2 at 12:40 and 1:10am.

Re: Retro: Washington, DC Friday July 24, 1953
I don't have a clue. It sounds like "The Continental,"
a network show that had aired on CBS about a year
or so before. Actor Renzo Cesana played a Casanova
type who would speak to the camera as if it were a
woman guest in his penthouse suite, offering cigarettes
and drinks to the camera, singing, etc. "The Gay Blade"

may have been a local version of the same basic idea.
Anyone from D.C. know?

Re: Retro: Little Rock Friday, May 19, 1967
Thanks for the listings for Arkansas.
I noticed that KARK didn't carry Match Game in 1967. Also I noticed that the local stations didn't
air any reruns except for Maverick in the afternoons and the daytime reruns from CBS and ABC. I
wonder why this.

Was that all that unusual for medium markets at that time? IIRC, none of the network affiliates in
Birmingham carried reruns of network programming during the mid to late '60's. The only
exceptions were WBRC-6, which carried "I Love Lucy" at 5:00 p.m., and WBMG-42, which carried
"The Highway Patrol" at 5:30. Most of the 3:30-5:00 timeslot programming in Birmingham was
kiddie shows like "Cousin Cliff", with Popeye cartoons and Three Stooges shorts (on WAPI-13,
"Sergeant Jack", with Dick Tracy cartoons (WBMG-42), and Bozo on Channel 6. The rest of the
afternoon line-up on 6 and 13 was made up of movies.

Highway Patrol, with the wonderful Broad Crawford, was a great show which I would love to see
again. But wait---Highway Patrol was never on any of the big three networks, was it? I think it
was first run syndicated. So when WBMG aired the show in the sixties, I guess it was a rerun of a
syndicated show...

...yep. "Highway Patrol" was the jewel in the Ziv syndication crown. Although it *did* make its
way onto CBS for a few seconds, to a certain extent. On one 1955 telecast of "I've Got a Secret,"
Broderick Crawford was a special guest, and his "secret" was that he was watching himself on a
TV set placed on the stage; in New York, WPIX/11 ran "Highway Patrol" twice a week, one of
those runs being in the same 9:30 P.M. Wednesday time slot as IGAS was going out live over
WCBS-TV/2, and the TV set was tuned to Channel 11...

Locally-produced kids' shows began to die out in
the early '70s, when Action for Children's Television
pressured the FCC to ban local kids'-show hosts from
doing commercials (a baker in Baton Rouge that sponsored
"Buckskin Bill" on WAFB pulled all its advertising off the
station when the ruling forced Bill off the air). That
probably opened the door for reruns; in 1967 WVEC/13
Norfolk had Hampton Roads' greatest kids' show, "Bungles
And His Friends," from 4:30-5:30; five years later the
station was rerunning "Bonanza" at that time. In Atlanta,
"Officer Don" Kennedy's "Popeye Club" on WSB was replaced
by first-run "Truth Or Consequences" and "Perry Mason"
reruns by 1969.
In the late '60s/early '70s, to get back to Birmingham,
WBMG reran "Gilligan's Island" and "Dennis The Menace,"
among other things, in the 3:30-5:30 slot. WAPI (WVTM)/13
didn't get into the rerun game until 1972, airing "Green Acres,"
"Petticoat Junction," and Andy Griffith from 3:30-5 (local news
came on at 5); WBRC/6 began airing late-afternoon reruns in

1973; "Bewitched" and "Emergency One!" were big on the station
in the late '70s.
In Raleigh/Durham WTVD/11 carried Merv Griffin from 4:30-6
in the '70s and early '80s. Although he was number one in
the time slot, advertisers flocked to WRAL/5, which had reruns
of shows like "Happy Days" and "Sanford And Son," more demographically
desirable than Merv. But to show how times have changed, WRAL's
reruns couldn't hold up against Oprah on TVD, which is why "Young
And The Restless" airs in the Triangle at 4 instead of 12:30.

Thanks, bpatrick for a piece of info that I never knew about (I had watched (and even directed) a
few local kid's shoes, but they were gone by the time my kids were able to watch them. (I just
assumed they went out of style (meaning there was more $$$ in reruns (which - thanks to ACT -
there was).)
Wow! Benny Carle and Cousin Cliff just came storming back into my mind... :-) (I gotta have that
peanut butter & jelly in a jar...)

Re: RETRO: CHICAGO FRI NIGHT, OCT 29, 1993
ABC had their "TGIF", Montel was running at night (first run shows-now he is on WCIU-Channel
26), "Night Heat" I remember back in the day CBS used to have their "Crimetime After
Primetime" shows to compete against the Tonight Show and Nightline. The "Family Feud" was
hosted (I believe) at that time by the late Ray Combs (or did Richard Dawson come back?). "Dos
Mujeres, Un Camino" back in the day starred Erik Estrada (I kid you not!), "The Uptown Comedy
Club" kicked off Tracy Morgan's career, "A Current Affair" was hosted by Bill O'Reilly at the time,
"The Adventures of Brisco County, Jr." starred Bruce Campbell (The Evil Dead, The Evil Dead 2,
Army of Darkness and cameos on films directed by his best friend, Sam Raimi), this was also the
day before the Chicago Bulls were defending their title (after Jordan retirement one), Les
Brown's show didn't make it for a while that season, so don't quote me, but later that year after
Les' show was canned, WLS repeated Oprah's 9am show after nightline (she is on live at 9am,
then and now to this day that show is repeated at 11:05 pm), of course this was about a year
before WGN became a WB afilliate (now the CW) and WWPR became a UPN afilliate (now MyTV
Network).

Did I see "Married...with Children" on WMAQ-TV? What a joke! "Married" was a OK show, but
on a NBC O&O station? I know it was based in Chicago, but maybe WMAQ-TV aired the show
because of that!

No! Bill O'Reilly hosted "Inside Edition." Maureen O'Boyle, who is now an anchor at WBTV in
Charlotte, hosted "A Current Affair" in 1993.

Married....with Children was just started in Syndication...The first run was still on WFLD (Fox 32)
at the time.

How was channel 5 allowed to show an off net rerun in prime access, was that rule about top 50
markets not showing them in access hour repealed by then?

Re: ABC Friday October 1993

"Good Evening, I'm Hugh Downs. And THIS....is 20/20!" ;D

Actually, Barbara Walters had already joined him many years earlier so the only things Hugh ever
got to say were "Good Evening, I'm Hugh Downs" and "Well, that's 20/20 for this evening, I'm
Hugh Downs". Once Walters came along, he never even got to say "We're in touch so you be in
touch" anymore...she always said it.
And it's a good good thing Barbara came along when she did. I'm sure Hugh was getting
exhausted just sitting there every Friday night for a few minutes welcoming us and introducing 2
or 3 stories. No wonder he retired. :P :

Was In Concert a half hour or hour program? What day(s) did it come on?
The show was 30 minutes and only aired on Fridays, and few affiliates aired the show in pattern.
Stations already had syndication deals for programs to air Monday thru Friday after "Nightline."
"In Concert" tended to air in most markets following the ABC affiliate's late-night syndicated line-
up.
With the huge popularity of country music in 1994, ABC introduced "In Concert Country," which
was aired on Saturday nights at 11:30/10:30 CT. Again, most affiliates that carried the show aired
it tape-delayed later that night. I believe the country show was an hour.
"In Concert" was actually a full hour when it first started going to 30 min. after just a couple of
years. But the previous poster is right, many stations delayed to either late Friday or in some
cases, late night on Saturday when there was no network programming (except for the country
version, which aired for an hour during either the summer of '93 or '94).
And, of course, "In Concert" first aired during the first half of the 70s as part of ABC's late night
schedule, albeit on a irregular basis.

Why do I remember "In Concert" as being 90 minutes?
The only other thing I remember is that the stereo signal was fed to a local FM station so that
people could get a good "concert" feel.

It must have been pretty cool to see my hometown on national TV, sometimes now ESPN or
somebody else will televise a sporting event from Tacoma, now it's still pretty cool to see your
hometwon on national TV.
Interesting side note, I have been to the alley where this event was held many times and even
though the listing says Tacoma, it's actually in University Place which is a suburb of Tacoma, like
the city I live in Lakewood, Washington, Lakewood became a city in 1996 and before it was a city
it was a subrub of Lakewood.

Say...who is WVAH-TV channel 23? Also, was channel 11 on the air at that time?
WVAH-TV was originally on channel 23 when it debuted in 1982. The station moved to channel
11 in 1989 after the FCC dropped the frequency into the Huntington-Charleston market.
However, WVAH is short-spaced on channel 11 and contorts its signal in order to protect stations
in Pittsburgh (WPXI) and Johnson City, TN (WJHL-TV). Channel 23 then went dark; it is now
WSAZ-TV's current digital frequency.

Re: Retro: Idaho Falls, Idaho., Tuesday, April 17, 1973
I was born in Pocatello in 1956 but our family moved to California when I was very young. I did
live there again between June and Sept 1972 and spent many summers up there otherwise. How
well I recall primetime shows being taken off the network feed "live" from the east coast which
meant that a show that was on at 8pm ET/PT would be shown at 6pm in Idaho during the dinner
hour. KIFI's news included the hyperactive weathercaster Lloyd Lindsay Young (now of KGO, San
Francisco I believe). His weather segments were very personable and informative. Both the
Idaho State Journal and the Post-Register listed each stations schedule separately, exactly as you
have done (rather than the familiar multi channel format that most of us are familiar with). In
regard to KBGL, the call letters stood for "Bengal" the mascot of their licensee, Idaho State
University. Pocatello's second station, channel 6 (KTLE), I believe first came on about 1973-74 era
and went dark soon after. By 1975 KPVI was on 6 permanently.

WATL Ch. 36 Atlanta (Ind.)
At the time, this station outrated Ch. 17.
Though not for long, as earlier, 17 snatched a popular show from channel 36's hands:
12 N Now Explosion
Channel 36 went dark sometime in 1971; word has it that its ratings tumbled after 17 stolen
"The Now Explosion" from them.

Re: Retro: Atlanta/Chattanooga/Macon Saturday, January 2, 1971
I don't know that that one program made the

difference between success and failure on 36.
I do know that 36's owner, U.S. Communications,
was in deep financial trouble by 1971 and shut
down all its stations that year. As a result, 17
went from fifth of five to fourth of four, then got
two extra boosts by the end of the year, courtesy
of Channel 11.
The first came when ABC forced 11 to pick up the
network news; Ted Turner scheduled "Star Trek"
at 6 PM and found out what 11 had known for years:
there was an audience not disposed to watch news
at that time.
The second was when Turner took wrestling away
from 11. Supposedly Turner had an "in" because he
had been romantically involved with a woman who
worked for the promotion, but 11 had angered the
promoters by switching the time slot around; traditionally,
wrestling came on at 6 or 6:30 on Saturdays but in the
late '60s 11 had moved it to 10:30 PM. Turner was able
to put it at 6 and the rest is history.

Note, too, that this is the first year that no network had
15 minutes of news and 15 minutes of music in the 7:30-
8 PM slot; NBC was the last holdout. CBS and NBC fed
their newscasts at 6:45 and again at 7:15; ABC had one
feed at 7:15 following Sports Focus with Howard Cosell.
For the record, the shows I'm thinking about as long-running
classics are: Wagon Train (8 years), The Real McCoys (6),
Leave It To Beaver (6), Perry Mason (9), Have Gun Will Travel (6),
Maverick (5), and Bachelor Father (5).

Re: Prime time fall 1957
I am a few years to young to have stayed up until 9:00, even on Friday night, but I remember
seeing "Mr. Adams and Eve" in reruns, maybe 5 or 7 years later. It was a cute sitcom with Howard
Duff and Ida Lupino (married in real life at the time) playing a showbiz movie-star couple. There
was a supporting character - I don't remember if he was supposed to be their agent, or maybe a
film director/producer they worked with. The guy was a quick-tempered pompous blow-hard,
and he was played by Alan Reed, who by then (early 60s) was the voice of Fred Flintstone. (See
other thread in this board on cartoon voices).

The wrestling on WZTV was Memphis (at 12) and GLOW (at 7)...anyone know what promotion
the other shows were from?
The wrestling on Channel 2 was also from Memphis, which was basically a repeat from the 12:00
wrestling on Z-17, as it was called at the time. I do believe the first hour of wrestling on Channel
30 was also from Memphis, with the second hour being one of the WWF shows that was being
aired around the country at the time.

Re: Retro:Nashville, TN-Bowling Green, KY Sat 8/15/87
Anyone find it interesting Channel 17 only showed movies from the year 1976 on this day?

17 Baseball: White Sox-Phillies (Phils win 11-5)
This must have been the old Hall of Fame exhibition game they used to play at Cooperstown,
since interleague play was over 20 years away.

It couldn't have been the Hall of Fame Game. Until the last few years, the HOF game was played
the Monday after the HOF induction ceremonies, always towards the end of July or beginning of
August. This game had to be the Cubbies and the Phillies.

Are there listings missing for channel 29 between 9 and 11 am? I doubt they aired Barney Bear
(?) and Droopy Dog for 2 1/2 hours.
And speaking of cartoons: Props to Woody Woodpecker! You know he was the big time when he
gets clearance at 4 PM on the mighty major network-affiliated Channel 2!

It was the Cubs. Right score, right result, wrong ShyTown team, LancNews. The boxscore is at

Re: Retro: Windsor/Detroit Tues, Mar 21, 1989 (pt 1: 5am-6pm)
One thing that stuck out here:
I had thought CHCH had its own morning show weekdays from 7-8:30 AM during the 1988-89
season. I had also thought CFPL's morning show went from 7-8:30 instead of 7-8. In any case,
those were cancelled by the summer of 1990.
Any more info on those?

How concidental is it that both stations were airing episodes that were shot in Hawaii. Sanford

(where George, Louise, Tom, Helen and Florence all go to Hawaii.)

CFPL by this time was independent and the CBC affiliation had moved to CBLN. The only CFPL
shows here I've heard of are Best Sellers (a boring perennial CHCH staple), Reach for the Top
(which was produced in London at the time), and Inquiry (which has been a London-produced
public-affairs program for over 30 years and still airs today) - sure goes to show how they were
failing without a network affiliation!

That's what I get for relying on the Star's channel guide ...they also had WNWO listed under its
old calls of WDHO.

Also a bit of a disclaimer...SBS0/28 was also on the air in Melbourne, but wasn't listed in the
Country Victoria edition as TV Week didn't think regional viewers were interested in ethnic
shows ;D

I'm going to take a wild guess and say that this is around the time Tony Barber and Alyce Platt
were replaced by Glenn Ridge and Jo Bailey.
And you would be right
An interesting fact on the two Tassie commercial channels...for a few years, both stations used
the TasTV branding with separate newscasts in Launceston and Hobart; the split occured shortly
after Tricom (now Southern Cross Broadcasting) purchased TNT9. Tasmania was preparing for
aggregation, which saw TasTV (later purchased by WIN and affiliating to Nine) and Southern
Cross (affiliating to Seven/Ten; both WIN and SC partner on a digital Ten station with SC getting
first dibs on any Ten shows) expanding statewide.
