It's unclear if the 'The Gates' is 30 mins. or an hour. An article (from 2 days ago) that I read said it will run only 30 mins. Which would mean there would be 30 mins. that would have to be filled with something.
Honestly, I haven't come across anything that said it would be an hour-long soap. Safe to say most people assumed that given it is replacing an hour-long show, it would be an hour-long too.
So there's that....
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

Here's a problem. GMA3 airs at 1 PM (ET) on ABC and most NBC affiliates air the four hours of the Today show from 7-11 AM (local time) and NBC News Daily at 1 PM But neither ABC nor NBC has The Young and the Restless, which CBS is not going to move out of its midday slot. Furthermore, CBS's new soap The Gates seems to be headed for a 2 PM (ET) slot. So affiliates could air their 9 AM newscasts, run the CBS Morning 3rd Hour at 10, and move Let's Make a Deal to 3, which I don't see happening. And in the Central time zone it's common to have a 9 AM newscast followed by The Price Is Right at 10 and Let's Make a Deal at 2. Where do you put CBS Mornings 3rd Hour? This is never going to go on most affiliates; I remember that, before CBS forced WFMY to carry CBS's Saturday-morning newscast, they handed it off to their subchannel and will do it again with the new daily third hour.
CBS's third hour in the morning is intended for the o&os and the subchannels so most of you will not see a change on your CBS affiliate's main channel.
To use one of my two local CBS stations, WFMY, as an example: the lineup will still be:
4:30 AM The Good Morning Show (local)
7 AM CBS Mornings
9 AM The Good Morning Show (another hour)
10 AM Let's Make a Deal
11 AM The Price Is Right
12 N News 2 At Noon
12:30 The Young And The Restless
1:30 The Bold And The Beautiful
2 PM The Gates (I'm assuming this will be its timeslot)
3 PM The Good Afternoon Show (local, replaces DBL)
3:30 Daytime Jeopardy!
I had a feeling it would be The Good Afternoon Show.

I know that it happened here in Charlotte before. One when there's reporters and meteorologists from Tegna stations across this country helping out with WCNC during their coverage of Hurricane Florence back in 2018 and in 2022 when other meteorologists from other Gray stations helping out with WBTV after the tragic helicopter crash.
The meteorologist from WIS Columbia drove up that night that Jason was killed.

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.

Fox did such a poor job in Charlotte with "Fox Carolinas", "Fox 46" and whatever else....that trading for Seattle and Milwaukee was almost a certainty. Besides the Panthers have had a rough time in the NFC.
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.

The Deadline story, and bait for the Speculatron because it also involves a syndication deal to carry it with WCCB, not WJZY.
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.

It does mention it would be a 2 hr extension of the current show which will continue to air on NFL Network. So the earliest it could run on the affiliates is 10am-12noon, so it’s not out of the question for it to be on after Good Day.
Some stations (actually many stations) air morning news through 11am so I could see them only airing an hour of it.

I would imagine a subchannel. They would be foolish to send Fox packing to Scripps and WGNT, or worse, Sinclair and WTVZ.
Fox and Scripps seem like an odd fit anyway. Would Scripps even want Fox?

Not surprised that Sherri will be back I thought it be renewed. I think as along as Fox O&O keep Sherri in their lineups it will be on for years like Wendy Williams was in my opinion.
Cox isn’t mentioned, but that doesn’t necessarily mean that WSOC/WAXN won’t reup.

WSB 2 Atlanta delays ABC World News Tonight until 7 pm, opting to air their 6 pm local news as a 1-hour bock. This puts them head to head with WAGA Fox 5 who does the same. (Both don't list 6:30 as a separate newscast).
KDKA Pittsburgh does that with the CBS Evening News.

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.

Sorry to see Molly Grantham abruptly depart WBTV, as she was apparently forced out the door after she declined to renew her contract which expires at the end of the month. Rather than allowing her honorably finish 20 years of service, she was abruptly kicked to the curb wih no appropriate farewell or final broadcast. I would speculate Gray TV offered her an unsatisfactory contract, but whatever the case it is a shame to see her treated so disrespectfully. I hope to see her join WSOC or some other station if she so chooses and a contract is offered. WBTV continues to lose longtime legacy talent, incuding Paul Cameron, Maureen O'Boyle, Eric Thomas, Steve Ohnesorge, David Whisnant, and Steve Crump. Losing heritage credentials and class act reputation. More inclined to watch WSOC.
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.

Should it happen, It would be best for that program to be kept to 30 minutes given the budgetary constraints of the medium.
If that’s the case either The Talk is cut to a half hour, Y&R is cut to a half hour, or Y&R and B&B each move a half hour later and 12:30 returned to affiliates and the Talk cancelled.

I wonder what game show or soap it will replace?
Or it could replace The Talk.
Maybe CBS returns 12:30 to affiliates and moves Y&R to 1 and B&B to 2 and puts the new soap at 2:30 (if it’s 30 minutes). If it’s an hour it would likely just go right in at 2 ET.

Moved to P+ is not the same as cancelled outright but yeah.
I thought the same. Maybe Y&R moves to 1 and CBS turns 12:30-1 over to affiliates or starts a “CBS Daytime News”.
Maybe CBS does similar to NBC News Daily and schedules it at 12:30, 1:30, 2:30, and 3:30 ET for each continental time zone. That would allow for CT to keep their noon news without the new CBS Daytime News being delayed and Y&R could stay at 11am CT.

TBF, just cause it's "renewed though 2028" doesn't mean it will be "on CBS through 2028", they could very easily have a clause just like with Days to move to streaming at a later date
Moved to P+ is not the same as cancelled outright but yeah.
12 hours ago, bgiesing said:So like maybe B&B is only renewed for one more year while the more popular Y&R stays on for 4.
I thought the same. Maybe Y&R moves to 1 and CBS turns 12:30-1 over to affiliates or starts a “CBS Daytime News”.

Posting here because of the talk about what CBS should do. The Young and the Restless has been renewed through 2028:
https://variety.com/2024/tv/news/the-young-and-the-restless-renewed-cbs-1235924102/
Bad news for those calling for Y&R to get cancelled.

Not to dive into speculation, but could ABC return the remaining portion of the 11/10pm hour to their affiliates and have Nightline on at 12a/11p?
Certain ABC affiliates may want their old hour-long newscasts back....cough cough WEAR...WISN... Not to mention those stations that added another half-hour syndie after the 10pm news and did so for years....
Doing so would give ABC stations an advantage over CBS or NBC.
I think Nightline could expand to an hour if Kimmel was not replaced.

things are sliding back a full 10+ years in orlando.
starting monday 2/12 on WKMG:
- entertainment tonight (which has ceased to be tonight at this point, unless they plan on telling the future or what they think will be that night’s entertainment) and inside edition are gonna be on at 9/9:30am
- Drew Barrymore is on at 3pm (again. it was already at 3pm in September) - but now it’s the full hour
- 4pm is a full hour of news again
- after 13 years, news 6 at 7pm is over. the series finale is tonight at 7pm. apparently they are relaunching 6:30pm news albeit online. ET and Inside Edition will be at 7/7:30pm - the first time the CBS O&O schedule format has ever been used here. The 1:37am inside edition repeat is gone for good.
WESH indirectly changed the entire flow of things here in orlando.
Just read about that on Discord and came to see if you had posted. WKMG has made a lot of changes this season.

Update here: I was randomly fooling around on Wikipedia and found some amusing information.
KAZT-TV in Phoenix took The CW as of last week (February 1st). The reasoning? Nexstar entered into a time brokerage agreement with KAZT’s owner, Londen Media Group, to program the station.
Old news….but apparently it had not been posted in this thread.
Nexstar...again

There go the days of their fall schedule being released in May or June ahead of time.
