How's your fall schedule stacking up?
« Reply #105 on: August 26, 2007, 02:04:40 PM »
Here in Topeka it's:

10 AM:  Temptation on KSNT DT2 (CW station owned by NBC station) vs. TPiR on WIBW.
2:30 PM:  Millionaire on KSNT (NBC).
4 PM:  Crosswords on KTKA (ABC), followed immediately on KTKA by a double-run of Jeopardy!
6:30 PM:  Wheel on WIBW (CBS).

To those who haven't heard from the local stations, I suggest that, starting tomorrow, you check out either zap2it.com or tvguide.com, and search the lineup for September 10. The sites usually go two weeks into the future, to that hour, so you might wanna wait till around 5 or 6, long enough to at least see the daytime lineups.

Replying to myself...

For Cleveland...

WOIO:  Family Feud at 9 AM, Temptation at 9:30 AM, Family Feud at 10 AM, Merv Griffin's Crosswords at 10:30 AM, Millionaire at 7 PM[/quote]
The info I got from WOIO's programming director was incorrect.  Crosswords is now at 9:30 AM with Temptation at 10:30 AM.  And of course, TPiR is at 11 AM on WOIO.

To go with the above, you might want to wait until 8 if something doesn't show...some places are running shows in the prime access slots (7-8PM).

Also, when selecting a channel lineup, you might want to go with a "over-the-air" setting if possible, unless some of your indy-stations are cable only.  I know I've got one OTA-only station, and it doesn't come up with the cable settings.

Oh...definitely check the indy-stations.

And Pittsburgh-

WBGN Ind 59
Temptation 6-7 p.m.
Which, thanks to Comcast's infinite wisdom of NOT carrying Indy stations for an additional CBS and NBC stations, I don't get...argh.

Wait a sec, WBGN?  Tiny, pathetic, "3/4 of our daily schedule is infomercials" WBGN... is airing Temptation?  This is the same channel that considers reruns of Coach and The Nanny to be prime time programming!  Has WBGN ever aired anything in first-run syndication?

FWIW, I get WBGN on my local cable.

Among the local markets of interest is also Bowling Green, KY - which is a bit interesting:

Syndication Only, Bowling Green, KY:
Temptation: 10:00 AM CT, WBKO-DT3 (CW Affil)
Family feud: 10:00 AM CT, WBKO-DT2 (FOX affil)
Millionaire: 10:30 AM CT, WBKO-DT2
Wheel of Fortune: 6:30 PM CT, WBKO-DT1 (ABC affil.  Confused yet?)

What's missing: Crosswords.  Oh, and Jeopardy!.  Admittedly, the market just launched it's excuses for FOX and CBS affils (both DT2 subchannels) last year, and the CW affil is just re-branded CW Plus stuff, but I would have thought *one* of the program directors would have thought to acquire the #2 show in syndication.  But that would make sense.

Apparently, they're making some attempts in the big leagues...they're also adding Martha, Jury Duty, Degrassi TNG, Stargate Atlantis, Reno 911, Blind Date, Chapelle's show, and Outer Limits.

And some canadian shows too.

Isn't the MyTV station in the Boston market licensed (and actually located) in a city in New Hampshire?

An update to my previous post... "Crosswords" will air in Austin on KEYE (CBS) at 4:30, against the newly-moved "Jeopardy." Neither a Zap2It search nor the Austin American-Statesman's TV column about syndicated shows moves/debuts yeilds anything about "Temptation," so I guess it's not airing.

Zap2It doesn't show either new show airing in San Antonio (at least through the end of available data at 7 PM, so I guess they will be in the wee hours, if at all.)

I think there's at least one other person around here from my neck of the woods, so:

Valdosta, GA
10 AM, WCTV CBS 6: Family Feud
11 AM, WCTV: The Price Is Right
11 AM, WFXU CW 57: Temptation
12:30 PM, WTXL ABC 27: Millionaire
7 PM, WCTV: Wheel of Fortune
7:30 PM, WCTV: Jeopardy!

No double runs, and (so far) no sign of Crosswords. Grrr.

EDIT:  For those living in the Valdosta are, here's the schedule after scouring Zap2It:

WCTV (CBS, analog channel 6, digital channel 46.1, Mediacom channel 6)
- Family Feud 9:30 AM
- Price Is Right 11:00 AM
- Wheel of Fortune 7:00 PM
- Jeopardy 7:30 PM

WCTV2 (MyNetwork, digital channel 46.2, Mediacom channel 4)
- Family Feud 10:00 AM
- Crosswords 10:30 & 11:00 AM

WSWG (CBS, analog channel 44 unavailable, digital channel 43.1)
- Millionaire 10:00 & 10:30 AM
- Wheel at 7:00 PM and Jeopardy 7:30 PM

WSWG2 (MyNetwork, digital channel 43.2)
- Crosswords 10:00 AM

WFXU/WTLF (CW, analog channel 57 unavailable?, digital channel 49.2, Mediacom channel 2)
- Temptation 11:00 AM

WTXL (ABC, analog channel 27, digital channel 22.1, Mediacom channel 7)
- Millionaire 12:30 PM

For the curious HD viewers, neither WCTV nor WSWG broadcast Wheel and J! in HD format and it's unknown when the stations will broadcast in the format.

Oops . . . I cop to screwing up the Family Feud time. As for the rest, it may be obvious that I was going by the Mediacom listings--no WSWG for me.

But how do you get Zap2It to cough up those listings for WCTV2? It insists on telling me that the content is identical to WCTV's.

For some reason, WCTV2 just does not appear in the Mediacom lineup, but here's what I did:

After I entered my zipcode, I selected "local broadcast listings" instead of the others.  Then I customized the station list where the subchannels appear then include the digital broadcast channels only.  You may have to have an account to do this.
