What type of changes are taking place in your area with H2 & Pyramid being dropped?

Birmingham:

I just noticed that since Pyramid's cancellation our CBS 42 (WIAT) affiliate dropped Who Want's to Be a Millionaire which aired at 3:30 p.m. after Pyramid.  Dr. Phil replaces that game show hour.

However my WB 21 station (WTTO) which airs 2 episodes of Family Feud in the noon slot will now have 2 episodes of Who Want's to Be a Millionaire to follow it at 1:00 p.m.

 Harrisburg Market:

Pyramid used to air on WPMT-43 (FOX) with back to back episodes from 11am-noon. The timeslot will now be used for a new show called "Home Delivery", with Sukanya Krishnan. It's somewhat of a welcome back for her, as she was an anchor on WHP-21 (CBS)'s news, and also (I believe) on WCBS-2 in NYC.

As for H2, WHTM-27 (ABC) used to air at 7:00 pm - it gets replaced by "The Insider". Nothing exciting there.

I've written about Chicago in previous threads--except that I can now say that "Feud" will still be in prime time on WCIU, just an hour later at 8 p.m. after "Insider" and "Celebrity Justice."  It's replacing one run of "Believe It or Not!," which is moving to 8:30 a.m.  (The other run will still be at 8:30 p.m.)  The second run of "Feud" stays at 9 a.m., with a repeat of the previous day's "Celebrity Justice" replacing "Pyramid" at 9:30 a.m.

Therefore, anyone in Chicago who wants to can between WCPX, the Pax station, and WCIU (and "Wheel" on WLS at 6:30) watch three-and-a-half straight hours of game shows every evening.

Also in Harrisburg/York/Lancaster/Lebanon/Strasburg/Intercourse, Millionaire moves from a single run at 4pm on WHTM, ABC 27, to a single run at 12:30pm after their lousy noon news, which is fun because I can watch the show every day at work now.

No time changes here in NY, cancellation-related or otherwise...take away the cancelled shows, and everything's more-or-less the same as it was 6 mos ago.

Dayton, OH
WDTN (Dayton's New NBC) is dropping Family Feud at 12:30p with TBA. WHIO-TV is replacing Pyramid at 4:30pm with Family Feud. It should be the next best lead in to our 5:00 news, since we can't have Dr. Phil running during the 4pm hour (WDTN has had Oprah at 4pm since Day 1)

In Green Bay:

What previously was a one and a half hour block of Family Feud-H2-Pyramid on WGBA-26 (NBC) from 4-5:30PM has turned into just a single episode of FF at 5PM, with the new Jane Pauley Show taking the 4-5 slot.  Everything else stays the same.

Seattle:

Pyramid is gone, Millionaire got bumped for Jane (why?), but Meredith is moving to an NBC affil (KONG 16) 6-6:30p, replacing...I think Cops and something else.  H2 is on at 7p, The Insider takes the 7.30 slot on our primary NBC affiliate. Feud is still 5-5:30 on WB22.

Just to correct Travis briefly, KONG is not an NBC affiliate per se, but is owned by the same group and operated in the same building as KING-5, which IS our local NBC affil. KONG is an independent and also runs the Sonics games.

EDIT: I just saw a promo, looks like KONG is taking the double-rum of Meredith, carrying WWTBAM at 6:00P AND 6:30P. The new season starts...well, later today!

In the Scranton-Wilkes Barre, PA area  

Karn Feud switches from the NBC affiliate (WBRE 28) to the ABC affiliate (WNEP 16) The time remains unchanged 10-11am in a double run.  

WNEP 16 continues to carry Millionaire however it moves from 430 pm to 4 pm.
To make up for the loss of Squares, WNEP has added an odd 7pm newscast, going along with their 5, 530, and 6 evening newscasts.  

Taking Feud's former spot , it appears Home Delivery will aire on WBRE from 10-11.

Thank you, Chris.

KING was the one that ran Hollywood Squares lo those many years opposite Jeopardy at 7:30.  I wasn't quite sure exactly what KONG was, other than a "sister station" to KING, as it were.  I think Street Smarts is on either KCPQ-13 (FOX) or KTZZ-22, (WB) at the crack of dawn.

And KONG will finally have something decent besides the Sonics games to run.  Others might say that it'll be the FIRST decent programming on KONG...

 Even Sonics fans would say that, given the way the way they've been playing in recent seasons. :-)  Go Pistons!

The departures of Squares and Pyramid have caused a chain reaction in Grand Rapids, MI.  Jane Pauley moved in at 4:00pm, bumping Ellen to 3:00 where Donny and Meredith used to reside.  Ms. Vieira is moving to 10:30am, moving Feud to 10:00am, H²'s final resting place.

At least Meredith isn't on opposite herself. :-)

On WKYC-TV 3 in Cleveland, which played Pyramid at 12:30pm, the noon hour is being filled by The Larry Elder Show. Family Feud, which had aired from 12-12:30pm on TV-3 [the former home of Action3News with weekend anchor Leon Bibb] moves to WOIO Channel 19 (we're nineteen and we're yours!!) to take over the 9-10am block with a double run.

Philadelphia:

KYW-TV(CBS-3) will simply replace H2 with The Insider at 7:30 PM ET following Entertainment Tonight.

Over on indie station WGTW-TV48, Family Feud's hour has moved from 6-7pm to 7-8pm a couple weeks ago,  The change appears permanent for this season anyways.

J! WOF, & Millionaire stay right where they were last year at this time.

Not sure what replaces Pyramid at 3PM on CBS-3.
