Who should be the new hosts of 2007?

I don't think Joker or Combination Lock is a "go" for next season. My take is that they will be piloted for 2007 NATPE and may or may not get picked up.

That'll be decided before NATPE--these days the syndicators and their "station group partners" try to make things a go before the convention, making NATPE simply for signing up the smal-market stations.  I would suspect that pilots should be made pretty soon before KW can put the screws on the CBS O&Os and their "Wheel"/"J!"/Oprah stations (or their Dr. Phil/Rachael stations) to sign on the dotted line.

This struck me as funny, because in Seattle, there is the CBS affiliate (which is not an O&O, it's owned by Cox, but stick with me), then Wheel and J! are on the ABC affiliate, and THEN Oprah is on the NBC.

So, basically, this statement couldn't have applied to Seattle less. :)

/those who know how long KIRO held out before providing Comcast with an HDTV feed might suggest that it's run by Cox, too

What Mark might be getting at is that the stations that KW does business with now for WOF/J! and Oprah would be likely candidates for the new shows or they could say, "...well your competitor will take TJW/CL and we'll throw in Oprah unless you take TJW/CL too."

The CBS O&Os might be pressured by KW in the major markets first due to the corporate synergy, then it would trickle down to WOF/J!/Oprah/DrPhil incumbents
Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

Ah, I see. I thought it was a suggestion that more often than not, Wheel/J!/Oprah run on the same station and are CBS O&O's. :) Which may be, but not here. :)

It's my impression that the  Wof/j/oprah link is not what it used to be....a lot of syndie shows (most notably oprah and phil) in the past few years started going to the highest bidder once contracts were up....Oprah and Phil have both moved around a lot of big markets in the past few years....we lost Phil once our deal ended with him...and got Joe Brown instead...yikes....

I don't think there are any mkts out there that don't have Wheel and Jep on diff stations...

Assuming there's a typo there, in Minneapolis, the CBS O&O runs "Wheel" at 6:30 but didn't have room for "Jeopardy," (they have both Oprah and Dr. Phil) so the NBC affil has "Jeopardy" at 4:30 following WWTBAM.

Central time zone is different--I think most stations still have local news at 6, then only have one half-hour of prime access left for syndicated stuff before prime time starts at 7.

No typo...I would be really surprised to find more...though you're onto something with the Central time zone thing...when i did weather in Mississippi, the ABC ran Jep at 4:30 and Wheel at 6:30...

And Sacramento-Stockton is no exception to this. In 2002, KCRA-TV NBC 3 got Oprah Winfrey from KXTV ABC 10 (formerly a CBS station from 1955-95 before going to ABC),and on September 11th , Dr. Phil will move from KCRA to KMAX-TV CW31, because Rachel Ray will go in at 3pm on KCRA. Dr. Phil was originally going to move to CW31's sister station KOVRCBS13, but they chose to do a 4pm newscast which began in July,2006, sending Maury Povich to CW31 at 11am daily.

There is a contract clause that Dr. Phil cannot run opposite Oprah, so that limits the programming options somewhat.

Want another one?  Try Memphis, Tennessee.  J! airs weekdays at 3:30 on the CBS affliliate, WoF airs at 6:30 on the NBC one.  But of course, it's Central.

I believe you do have a typo, and just don't see it. You've got one too many negatives.

There are 24 stations in the US (all but 3 in the Central time zone) that air Wheel, but not J!. Of the 3 non-Centrals, 2 are Mountain and the third is in Honolulu.
