I'm e-mailing the Omaha stations since I've seen no promos for either. WOWT is a no to both so far.
I haven't heard anything about Temptation, either, which makes me kinda nervous that I won't be able to see it! However, I have heard that KHAS in Hastings is going to show Crosswords, but I don't know when. Now, here's what I don't get: It's the Lincoln/Hastings NBC affiliate, but we get Omaha's, WOWT, so I might have to see if I can get KHAS via antenna.
Anybody know if a station in Lincoln or Omaha picked up Temptation? (fingers crossed)

I do now... KXVO 15 will be running "Temptation" at noon weekdays. But they and KPTM are apparently a no to "Crosswords". Hmmm...

According to one site, "Crosswords" was sold to at least some stations owned by Gray Broadcasting, which owns Omaha's WOWT. But I just checked Sept. 10-11 listings for the big three stations, and "Crosswords" isn't on any of them. As For KPTM (Fox) and KXVO (CW), their program grids are fixed so I only see seven days ahead, so I don't know at this time if they ever plan to show it.
But here's what REALLY gets me: WOWT also has an indie station on subchannel 6.2 and on Cox Digital Cable called 620 which conceivably could pick up "Crosswords", but so far, nothing. This fall, I'd love to see WOWT itself clear an overnight hour for the NBC All Night one-week-later Conan replays and move whatever bumps them to 620, also, try and replay "Ellen" in prime time since it occasionally gets interrupted for local or NBC news bulletins or bumped for Wimbledon or other network sports in the afternoons. Plus, they could have "Crosswords" on 620 even in prime time (though if I were programming 620, I'd have "Crosswords" replace those weekday-afternoon "Bernie Mac" reruns which I'd then run through a mulcher!).
Of course, since 620 is clearly programmed to appeal mainly toward ages 12-29, no such luck.
