Me thinks Sinclair got a group deal. In Buffalo last weekend, I saw an ad for DOND on Fox Toronto WUTV.

/And yet I haven't seen any ads for it on their Baltimore flagship(s).

I can safely say that WREX-TV in Rockford will be airing DoND starting September 8th, as well as Trivial Pursuit: America Plays.

This is on top of already having Millionaire, Jeopardy and Wheel.

Channel 6 is carrying a syndicated game? When was the last time they did that?
The last I remember was Pictionary and they ran that at 1:30am for a few months before moving it to 2:30am.

Now that Don mentions Pictionary, I do remember WSMH airing that back in '97. But that was the last time they ever aired a Syndie Game Show.

And that's because Don Howard is getting more senile by the hour. WSYX ran Pyramid for at least its first season and might still be running WWTBAM. Move along, friends. Meltdowns aren't pretty.

When they started in 85, they had "Anything For Money" and Dawson Feud.  Later they picked up TTD and TJW as well as Don Bleu Gong Show and MacGregor DG.  Boardman's Liar's Club and Fun House also aired on 66.

But very cool. I do remember seeing a bit or piece of Pictionary at age 7, but obviously not clearly enough to remember what station.

I'm one of the younger folks here (c.1986) and that one even makes me feel a bit old.

I'll take the Geritol from you, thank you.

And for my Mid-Michigan friends:

[quote name=\'WSMH Promotions\']Dear Chad,

I'm very happy to hear that you are an avid watcher. Yes, Deal or No Deal will be airing on FOX 66 in the fall at 5pm and 5:30pm. Thank you for watching FOX 66![/quote]

"DOND" on WMAQ--don't know time yet, but they've got open that hour of local shows, infomercials and "Access" reruns at 11 a.m., so maybe there (or the 2 p.m. hour where "Crosswords" is, if they bail out on the Daytime Plus scheme).

"Trivial Pursuit" could be on either WFLD or WPWR--the Fox-owned stations have bought it.

And the second run of "WWTBAM" could either disappear or move into overnight at WGN--their midday newscast is adding a half-hour in September and starting at 11:30 a.m.

WTKR picked up D/ND, I'm guessing in the 4pm hour with "Millionaire".
WTVZ will air "Trivial Pursuit", and I'm guessing that will take the noon-1 hour, replacing "Temptation".

On the Louisville front......

WDRB Fox 41 has already started advertising DOND, which would indicate a strong time slot since they never plugged Crosswords, which aired at 4:30am. No official word yet on "Trivial Pursuit", but based on Belo being announced as one of the station groups to pick up the show, my hunch is that WHAS will be carrying it, possibly as a pairing with WWTBAM.
