They dumped it.[/quote]
That wasn't exactly the point I was trying to make...but I do like the thinking.

Couldn't whichever station is syndicating DOND or 5th Grader in a particular area impose a syndex blackout on MNTV during their airings if they wanted to?

I don't think so because it's not on a distant signal. What NBC and Fox (MNTV's parent) have done is sold the primetime rights to the shows MNTV. I guess PIX could drop the daytime run out of spite, but Fox would clear it on 5 or 9 if needed.
