  1. There go the days of their fall schedule being released in May or June ahead of time.
  2. Interesting… I’d like for affiliates to have a choice if it’s only a half hour… Keep Y&R at 12:30 and run B&B and Gates from 1:30-2:30 and syndicated programming at 2:30. Or hourlong news from noon-1pm, Y&R from 1-2 and the two half hour soaps from 2-3 but I know that will never happen
  3. I had a feeling it would be The Good Afternoon Show.
  4. The meteorologist from WIS Columbia drove up that night that Jason was killed.
  5. I actually do have something to report from Charlotte. WJZY launches a lifestyle show called “Positively Charlotte” starting Monday at 10am which kicks People Puzzler and Person Place or Thing to 12:30 and 1am, replacing the second run of 25 Words or Less and Pictionary. The former two game shows remain on WMYT at 2 and 2:30pm. Also TMZ Live is promoted to WJZY at the same time (3pm) beginning Wednesday July 3 due to soccer and WMYT will air another People’s Court at 3pm.
  6. Almost like the trade was a part of the plan all along. I really believe they used WJZY as a guinea pig with the Hey, Hey Carolinas and never intended to keep the stations long term. Your second statement….the Panthers were actually playing better when FTS owned them. The Rivera/Kuechly/Cam years were under FTS ownership. Almost like they wanted to build up the team. Now obviously the sale of the station had nothing to do with the ownership change. But the sale to Tepper and the culture changed for the worse right about the time Nexstar bought the stations. So I guess you could say FTS made a good decision when it comes to NFC markets. WJZY has come out all right under Nexstar but the Panthers under Tepper…not so much.
  7. Why would WJZY carry it? The article clearly states that Fox O&O and WCCB are carrying it, not Nexstar, and Fox sold WJZY/WMYT four years ago.
  8. Some stations (actually many stations) air morning news through 11am so I could see them only airing an hour of it.
  9. Fox and Scripps seem like an odd fit anyway. Would Scripps even want Fox?
  10. Cox isn’t mentioned, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that WSOC/WAXN won’t reup.
  11. KDKA Pittsburgh does that with the CBS Evening News.
  12. I’d like to see Good Morning Football on WJZY at 10am, sandwiched between the morning and midday news, with the game show block moved to the afternoon so it doesn’t have to compete with LMAD and TPIR anymore. I mean they are the official station of the Panthers so it makes sense. I guess the way people are talking this appears headed to the beta stations though so make that WMYT. Would still make sense.
  13. WBTV statement on Molly Grantham https://www.wbtv.com/2024/03/08/wbtv-statement-molly-grantham/ I hated how it went down. It appeared they might have had some sort of going away party for her off camera according to some pictures I saw last night on Facebook but she certainly deserved an on camera sendoff.
