KING and KONG are still the gold standard for that.

WBAY is keeping their noon show and having GMA Day air at 2pm like they did The Chew. WBRZ, that just seems like some kind of listings error; more likely Wendy goes to 11am, then GMA Day at 2pm.

It seems you are not familiar with Madame Ng's Vietnamese massage parlor. Next time in downtown Seattle, I highly recommend a visit!

So FOX goes first?

A Today show segment featuring former WNYT weatherman Howard Altschule, with a WNYT weather bug clipped to the side of the screen to show closings & delays. The L3’s shown here were terribly ripped off at WNYT itself.

I just checked my Spectrum guide and it’s showing the Midday News at 11am, as well. I’ll wait for confirmation, though, from Uncle Barky or the station itself.

Don’t forget KRDO, KVIA and KSAT too, they air noon newscasts and GMA Day at 2pm!

So we all knows that the GMA's third hour begins one week from Monday. And I was curious to see what WFAA was going to do with the midday schedule. Will they keep the noon news and tape delay GMA Day, etc, etc. So I looked at the guides, and it stated at 9/10 that WFAA will have its "Midday News" at 11am and GMA Day at noon. Yet I did not see any press release or any confirmation that Channel 8 was moving its midday show from noon to 11am. But check this out, another ABC affil that air news at 12pm/CT, WBRZ in Baton Rouge, their guide says GMA Day at 11am and their local noon show is kept. So I'm kind of puzzled. If the WBRZ new schedule sticks and ABC is giving the show an early window (doubtful), then why WFAA is giving in to the network and move its longtime noon show to 11am, should that schedule stick.

So WATE will be keeping the ad dollars in house from 3pm-6:30pm. Lifestyle show at 3pm then, 4, 5, 6PM News and Judy & Family Feud will still be on during 7pm hour. Doesn't WBIR have a lifestyle show and WVLT has a 4PM News? Very competitive in Knoxville. I was reading that the city population has expanded. I wonder if this market one day going to trump Memphis?

The job posting for a meteorologist is still there. I'd enjoy watching her at KFMB.

The first bumper theme has been growing on me. I wonder what’s the composer and name of this track 9:32-10:10 and 15:46
