Regarding $ale skipping S-016, I bet many, if not all of the $ale skips of episodes they have leased for, are music-rights related.


 


The 7/7/86 episode from the daytime edition used OMD\'s If You Leave for example.

From my memories from the 80\'s in NYC market:


 


Syn Sale started off in February 1985 on channel 9 (WWOR), I believe at 8:30.


Moved to channel 7 (WABC) in the fall at 4:30, then switched with Jeopardy and aired at 4 (I guess so Jeopardy could provide better ratings into news at 5).... Jeopardy moved back to 4:00 in Sept of 1986 followed by syn Card Sharks.... few months later Oprah moved here.... Jeopardy moved to 7PM with reruns at 10AM followed by Split Second)...


 


As for ET.... started on WWOR for a year or 2, then I remember it briefly on WPIX, then at WABC for 2 or 3 yrs until 1986... then WWOR and back to WABC in 1988.... in 1990 it moved to WCBS where it still is today...


 


I suddenly feel like Zach Horan...

I remember J! being on in the daytime on WABC for a while as well.

Gamed121683, I remember you made an episode guide thread for this show. I can help you out with it, once the Syndie version starts airing.

Sure, especially the Winner\'s Board era, which deserves the need for an episode guide. Gamed121683, or SRIV94, I hope one of you guys make an episode guide for the Syndie version, especially the Winner\'s Board era episodes.

Jeopardy didn\'t move to 7 until after they dropped Split Second, whenever that was (Sally Jesse Raphael took the 10 am slot, ETA to pinpoint that as at least September 14, 1987 because i saw a promo for it on an Eyewitness News open somebody posted, and one of the news items plugged was the Papal visit to Miami which began on the 11th) because World News Tonight preceded Squares for its first season.


I\'m pretty sure that ET didn\'t immediately premiere on channel 2 but since they picked up Hard Copy the year before (thus bumping Win, Lose or Draw to late night), wouldn\'t surprise me if Paramount was trying to sell those two as a pair.

No, I specifically remember J moving to 7 in December of 1986, as the newspapers were making a big deal of World News Tonight moving to 6:30... WOF and ET switched channels in September 1990... my sister was a contestant on the nighttime show in October of that year and we had to tell many people in our area that it was no longer on Channel 2

I do recall a commercial from WABC promoting J! and Lange NTT from 1984, however, for what it\'s worth.

A trip to your library with New York Times Microfilm archives would answer all questions.  They were very good with their daily TV listings.


Let's Make a Deal was the first show to air on Buzzr. 6/1/15 8PM.

Very true indeed, and I miss the digital version that my libraries had to give up to cut costs.  If you want to know more about the 1984 commercial I referenced, you\'ll have to ask Jason Jones (teamfx2000) if he still has the CLG Megamix master tapes from the Closing Logo Group.  One of the later volumes has the ad in question, so maybe he can help you out further with it.

Syndicated. It just aired on WABC in New York, much like Jeopardy! did.

Now celebrating his 22nd season on GSF!
