Regarding Golden Girls in syndication, and Aaron Sica may remember better than me, but I recall WGAL airing repeats at 5:30pm in between half-hour newscasts at 5pm and 6pm - probably as soon as the reruns were made available in syndication.

Had to verify via Gettysburg Times, but in September 1990, Golden Girls aired at 4:30. WGAL didn't yet have news at 5....5pm was The Challengers and 5:30 Entertainment Tonight. 6-7 was local news with NBC Nightly News at 7.  ET had aired at 5:30 since its inception but the following January, WGAL did a little shuffle. The hour of local news moved forward 5:30-6:30, NBC Nightly News moved forward a half hour as wel to 6:30, and ET settled in at 7pm.
