VHSgoodiesWA 303 Posted October 19, 2021 Share Posted October 19, 2021 Did they air on any UPN, WB, or IND stations that likely didn't have a news department? Or Fox stations? I'm not sure when the Fox network started relaying Fox News Channel to all their stations on 9/11...was it when the 2nd tower got hit?

10Viewer 334 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 (edited) WTSP (ABC) from 9/10/94 with a CBS This Morning promo touting the program's switch from WTVT to WTSP which took place on 9/12/94. I also didn't realize The Price Is Right moved over well before the official switch on 12/12/94.

I remember when WTSP showed the MDA Labor Day telethon that year they were advertising CBS This Morning and The Price Is Right moving on September 12th. Only the network morning shows and morning daytime shows which was only TPIR and ABC’s Mike and Maty at that time switched channels prior to December 12th. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/402/#findComment-266137 Share on other sites More sharing options...
TexasTVNews 1377 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 I guess ABC's Good Morning America also moved to WFTS on 9/12/94. I could be wrong on that. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/402/#findComment-266138 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Getting TPIR was a coup for WTSP and so was Late Night with David Letterman. Always baffled me how WTSP has been an underperformer in news but great in programming along with airing Wheel and Jeopardy!. 9 minutes ago, TexasTVNews said: I guess ABC's Good Morning America also moved to WFTS on 9/12/94.

There is a preview video on YT for WFTS "28 Tampa Bay News" that says "Starting December 12th" Edited October 20, 2021 by 8Viewer Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/402/#findComment-266139 Share on other sites More sharing options...

TexasTVNews 1377 Posted October 20, 2021 Share Posted October 20, 2021 Let me see if I got this right, and again I could be wrong. WTSP was airing CTM (CBS This Morning) and TPIR (The Price is Right) on a ABC station (Now a CBS station). WTVT expanded their morning news show GDTB (Good Day Tampa Bay, 7-9am) on a CBS station (Now a FOX station). And WFTS was airing GMA and maybe Mike & Matty on a FOX station (Now an ABC station). 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/402/#findComment-266150 Share on other sites More sharing options...

The same type of situation happened in other New World markets, with the daytime shows moving to their new station 3 months before the full switch occurred. For example in Atlanta, Price is Right had moved to WVEU 69 in September of '94, which CBS was planning on buying before they struck an 11th hour deal with WGNX to affiliate with them.

Yes all correct. WFTS would keep the same graphics and blue logo until the switch was complete in December. There were no news cut-ins at 25/55 after the hour but there was a still graphic with background music during local weather cut-ins. 1 Link to comment https://localnewstalk.net/topic/869-classic-video-thread-pre-2008/page/402/#findComment-266162 Share on other sites More sharing options...

IIRC, KDFW (Now Fox) did the same thing when they were a CBS station. The Price is Right and The Bold & The Beautiful moved to independent station (Now CBS) KTVT in the fall of '94 after KDFW preempt them in favor for Phil Donahue and short-lived syndicated court show, Juvenile Justice. KTVT also cleared select CBS prime time shows at KDFW preempted in order to run locally produced specials.
