Weekend WOF reruns now in Philly?
« on: November 12, 2005, 08:07:53 PM »
The Atlantic City Press TV grid listing today listed "Wheel" as being on late Saturday/early Sunday at 12:30AM EST on WPVI.  WPVI, who has aired Syndie WOF from the beginning, had never picked up the weekend WOF reruns since King World offered them in 1985. Have they begun picking them up now, or is it a typo on the AC Press's part?

Listed in TV Guide Online as well.  Guess you're now part of the club.

ASIDE TO THE REST OF THE AUDIENCE:  <<Paraphrasing Groucho Marx>> I wouldn't accept any membership in a club that would have him as a member. <<end/paraphrasing Groucho Marx>>  :)

Move closer to the bridge Horan, and jump offfffffffffffffffffffffffffffffff...

Weekend Wheel essentially took over for Powerball Instant Millionaire, so it's the second season of weekend Wheel in Philly.

Brandon beat me to the punch.  Thanks! :)  Yeah, any former or current 6-ABC Action News viewer, since its inception in 1970, would know.  Like TPiR in a different genre, the newscast has been sticking with its traditional theme song, news-tip plug (albeit the numbers have changed), and usual starting line "And the BIG STORY on ACTION NEWS is..."

For the hell of it, the voice-over guy, in place of "If you see Horan jumping...", typically says the telephone numbers to viewer who "see news happening".

(That's 1-866-NEWS-SIX, to the philly peeps. hehe)

The punchline was taken from the last contestant plug from Hit Man, instead of the afformentioned number above.

Okay, that's enough.  Let's move on.

Chris can't move closer to his world...for his world revolves around KOMO 4 News.

Actually I have a tendency to watch KING-5, just because I use Jay Leno as background when I go to sleep.

(That isn't intended as an affront on Mr. Leno.) :)

2 million cyber Funny Money Chuck Bucks to the person who can name the newscaster who coined that line (the big story) for Action News.
