CW to WNCN 17.2 if Sinclair mass disaffiliates with the CW? But what happens to WLFL/WRDC? I suppose WNCN 17.2 could take some of their programming inventory. And WLFL gets MyNet. But Sinclair wouldn’t need both stations. But we’re getting too far into Speculatron territory.

KICU should’ve really picked up MyNet when Fox made the trade with Cox. KBCW needs to change its call letters now. Is KBAY available?

WPHL’s programming is easily movable. (Modern Family and Friends). KRON will probably have to get rid of their 8 and 9pm News unless they can air CW from 7-9pm. WTTA has an 8pm news produced by WFLA and Spanish programming from 9-10. Maybe KRON and WTTA could put all that on their .2’s. They could also keep their MyNetwork TV because that’s 2 more hours they wouldn’t have to schedule.

Per tsherck on RadioDiscussions, apparently 48 Hours is entering syndication because it is replacing Rachael Ray on WANE at 3am in Fort Wayne. Interesting. Also Person, Place or Thing is replacing You Bet Your Life at 9:30am and 1:37am on the same station.

WSOC has already replaced him with Family Feud at 4pm. He is still airing on WAXN at 10am.

Wow…that’s an odd time for a show to move. That would almost be a 2022-23 change as shows have moved at midseason. But not often.

Fair enough, we actually got news from WIS today though. EDIT: didn’t realize a new thread had been started.

So wonder if ET will go to 10.2 or WACH? WLTX doesn’t have room in prime access unless they cancelled the 7:00 news. WOLO has Wheel and Jeopardy.

Still waiting on WBNX’s fall 2023 schedule

Nexstar/Mission must have picked it up from FTS. I bet it might stay on WJZY/WMYT then. I could see it moving to WYCW in Greenville/Spartanburg.

You and me both! Someone please just buy the stations already!

Cox was also getting WFAA from Tegna

Just stumbled upon some WSOC changes that take effect May 29, according to zap2it. Tamron swaps with Sherri, so Tamron will be airing at 10am and Sherri at 3pm. Also a double run of Family Feud replaces Dr. Phil at 4. I guess the new episodes of Dr. Phil will end the 26th? But still why dump him now if they are not going to start a 4pm news? I didn’t see any changes for WAXN so presumably they keep their 10am Dr. Phil airing which would become same-day I guess. This would make more sense if Dr. Phil was going off the air completely but apparently he’s staying on WAXN? And i don’t get them switching Tamron and Sherri. Oh and Charlotte would join the markets airing Feud 6 times a day, twice on WSOC and four times on WAXN.

Funny You Should Ask on the Weather Channel

Doesn’t sound like it’s a given that CBS will put the affiliation on WUPA. Braves, Hawks and the rumored new NHL team on WUPA?

Speaking of that, I don’t think anyone else in Boston picked up MNTV did they?

I thought YTTV already signed on for them

WHKY-TV sale to SBN is consummated. The new call sign WWJS goes into effect tomorrow. Programming has already switched over. Heard about this on the AVS forum.

I doubt it but I guess there would be nothing stopping them. I just don’t see why they would give up the local time. If they did they would probably drop something like Top Story with Tom Llamas It’s not that I disagree with you, it’s just the way you said it that’s hilarious

Meant to post yesterday that WPCH started their checkerboard 8pm lineup last night. That moved Last Man Standing reruns to 11am and 11:30 and Pictionary and Funny You Should Ask were cut down to one run each at 10am and 10:30am. Also Modern Family is now airing at 6:30, Young Sheldon at 7, and then Big Bang Theory at 7:30. It used to be YS, BBT, then MF. Which now I think BBT also airs at 7:30 on WANF.

So it’s not just WBTV. For a while after Gray bought Raycom WBTV only had Nate Wimberly. About the time Delano retired Ashley Strohlein went to WCNC to replace Kelsey Riggs who went to ACCN/ESPN. They now also have Cam Gaskins but isn’t the same as when Paul and Delano was there, and Jim Thacker before Paul but that was before my time. I’m rooting for CBS to give 10-11pm to the affiliates so WBTV can give Football Friday Night a real show again (at least 30 minutes on actual TV) and not 20 minutes during the 11pm news and 15 minutes online. It is a far cry from when it was an hour. CBS made them run The Late Show in pattern every night but I’m not so sure part of it isn’t Gray too. Delano is now with Bahakel Sports.

And I remember the days when WBTV aired infomercials at 9 and 9:30 am in the mid 2000s. It seemed they could never find anything decent to replace Donahue at 9am until QC in the Mornng premiered. (Except I think Rachael Ray at one time). They would’ve been better off pulling a WFMY and delaying CBS This Morning/Early Today an hour (I mean this was the station that delayed The Price Is Right by a day for a decade to air Top O’ The Day at 11:30am) and extending their morning news until CBS finally cracked down on affiliates doing that. Of course they had room for Flip My Food and Fix it or Finish it.

Ironically sister station WCNC had Charlotte Today for an hour at 11am then went to an hour of news at 11:30am when COVID hit. Thought it would be just temporary but they have kept it ever since.

Which was why the original Roseanne should’ve ended after Season 8. Roseanne also said Jackie was a Lesbian and that Becky and Darlene’s husbands were switched.

Yeah I can’t see Roseanne Season 10 being included. It is actually included with the original Roseanne on Peacock and Cozi.
