Just heard via commercial that Celebrity Name Game will air in the Des Moines, IA market on the FOX affiliate (KDSM).

Here in Baltimore, Celebrity Name Game will air on WNUV (The CW). No time has been given yet.

As for everything else, I believe it remains the same.

WBAL (NBC): Who Wants to Be A Millionaire (12:30 pm)
WJZ (CBS): Let's Make A Deal (10); The Price is Right (11)
WMAR (ABC): Let's Ask America (7)
WBFF (FOX): Family Feud (6 + 6:30), Jeopardy! (7), Wheel of Fortune (7:30)
WNUV (CW): Celebrity Name Game (TBA)
Me: Of all of the game shows you've hosted besides Jeopardy!, like High Rollers or Classic Concentration, which is your favorite?
Alex Trebek: I'd have to say To Tell The Truth, because it was the first time in my career that I got to sit down while I was hosting.

Knoxville, TN

WATE (ABC): Family Feud (7:30pm and 1:05am), Millionaire (2:05am)
--Feud moves from WKNX/WBXX (who were both airing the double run). Millionaire moves to overnight due to news expansion
ETA: Apparently we are also airing the 3rd and 4th runs of Feud at 1:00pm and 1:30pm on our .2 (Livewell).

The rest is unchanged:
WBIR (NBC): Wheel (7:00pm), Jeopardy! (7:30pm)
WVLT (CBS): Let's Make a Deal (10:00am), The Price is Right (11:00am)

No word here yet on Let's Ask America or Celebrity Name Game.

ETA: Celebrity Name Game will air a double run on WTNZ (Fox) at 5:00pm and 5:30pm.

You've got a "Change of station in the market" combined with a "Moved to a horrible timeslot". Does the syndicator shrug their shoulders and say "Well, at least we got something" or do they re-shop the show around the market looking for better placement?

I think Disney probably feels that at this point, there's no need to worry because Millionaire might well be on its last legs. Three hosts in three years certainly isn't going to help matters and I think that, if they're getting shuffled out of their long-held slot in the biggest market, they're fair game for a move anywhere and Disney knows that. Frankly, with Feud suddenly becoming as popular as it is now I'm surprised more of Millionaire's affiliates aren't dropping it to jump on the bandwagon. Not that I'm saying Millionaire isn't worth watching, but still.

At this rate, Millionaire might as well be picked up by The CW Plus, where old syndies go to die.

I think you're referring to the afternoon programming block, which last I checked doesn't exist anymore.

Two hosts in three years, or three hosts in twelve.

Having watched the show I can't help note how far the show has gone from where it was, but it could be like Feud, as long as it manages to pull black ink it really doesn't matter what we think, does it.
If you didn’t create it, it isn’t your content.

Rosie O'Donnell's old show wound up there in its last season (back when it was The WB 100+).

And I'm surprised they haven't gone to the Well of Dick Joke Questions.

But my underlying point is that how much longer are these station owners, especially ones that aren't O&Os of a network, going to want to keep the show when you've got a stronger show you can pick up and plug in in its place?

I'd rather not see the show go but I don't have the power to stop it from happening.

Which one? That might be a market-specific thing and I actually had to look it up because I had no damn idea what you were talking about.

You know, the one that came before Caroline Rhea.

Then it must be a market specific thing. Both of the affiliates that carried those two shows kept them in my market and none of them were WB affiliated.
