For some reason, in San Francisco, Temptation is listed as being on KRON (MyNetwork) on 9/5 at 9:00 and 9:30 PM, and then on KTVU (Fox) on 9/10 at 12:30 PM.

EDIT: and here's the reason: http://gameshow.ipbhost.com/index.php?showtopic=13290

ANOTHER EDIT: Crosswords (er, "Merv Griffin's Crosswords") is on KNTV weekdays at 2:00 and 2:30. (Still no second daily showing of Temptation, however.)

Since someone already beat me to Pittsburgh, I'll offer my former stomping grounds, Tampa-St. Petersburg, FL...

The biggest surprise is Wheel and Jeopardy moving from WTSP CBS 10 to WFTS ABC 28. IIRC, the juggernaut pair had been on WTSP from each show's beginning, going back to when WTSP was the local ABC affiliate. WFTS will also carry Crosswords at 9 a.m. starting 9/10. One guide I checked, however, has WTSP airing Jeopardy at 9:30 a.m. as well as 7:30 p.m.. I've always envied markets that air J! in the daytime, perhaps Tampa is about to become one of them?

Family Feud appears to be staying on WTTA 38 with the same 2 p.m. double run.

Millionaire will stay on WTSP 10 with a new 7:30 p.m. run. Most guides are still showing the program at the current 9:00 a.m. double run as well, which might be an error. The same guides are still showing Wheel and J! at 7 and 7:30 on WTSP, which is incorrect.

Temptation is cleared for WTTA 38, and from what I can gather will double run at 1:00 p.m.

TPIR, of course, remains on WTSP 10 at the usual 11:00 a.m. time.

From what I can tell, all we'll get in terms of syndie game shows here in Philadelphia are Jeopardy! and Wheel of Fortune on WPVI at 7:00 and 7:30 PM, and Millionaire at 12:30 PM - my search turned up no Temptation and no Crosswords.

Adam Strom ("Card Shark") made a post recently...I think he said KYW will air Crosswords. Program Partners' website says that it was cleared in the Top 50 markets, so Philly will air it.

As someone who lives in a market where J! actually used to air in the daytime...what's wrong with that?

I didn't say there was. I merely asked why that would trigger "envy".

Updated schedule for the Milwaukee market (the first listed times, if known, are the first-run airings):

TITLE TIME(S)
Crosswords 8:30PM 2:30PM
Feud 4:30PM 2:00PM 7:30PM
Jeopardy 6:00PM 8:00PM
Millionaire 4:00PM
Temptation 3:00PM 3:30PM
Wheel 6:30PM

The first listed times of Feud and Jeopardy, as well as the Millionaire and WoF airings, are on WDJT. The rest are on their O&O "independent" station, WMLW.

/Yes, that is a triple-run Feud.
//I have no clue why they decided to do that, while having Mill and WoF as singles.

Here's some stuff for So-Bloody-Hot-lanta and Chattanooga concerning Crosswords and Temptation:

WDSI, Chattanooga's Fox affiliate, is airing Temptation at 8 AM
WATL, the MyNet affiliate, is airing Crosswords at 8:30 AM
WXIA is also airing Crosswords at 12:30 PM
WRCB (NBC Chattanooga) is airing an hour of Crosswords from 4-5 PM

Unless I've overlooked something, I don't see Temptation airing in the Atlanta market. *shrugs shoulders*

Crosswords is going to be hard to find in Omaha-apparently no one's airing it in Omaha, Lincoln, Des Moines or Sioux City. Nearest markets: KMCI-38 in KC, KTKA-49 in Topeka and KHAS-5 Hastings. Sigh. And too bad they dumped the NBC early airing-that would have been good leverage to e-mail the station and say "hey, I liked that show you aired". But WOWT has the 4-hour Today-fest instead. Geez, how much more can that show expand?

I see my home market in Tennessee (Kingsport) is Crosswords-less too... (condolences to Mr. Mooneyhan) but WLOS-DT in Asheville NC will run it on their second channel. Anyone who wants to trade the first week of Crosswords for Temptation, get in touch-looks like I'll need some help!

Update for Seattle - Tacoma:

Staying the same:

The Price Is Right, KIRO, 10 AM
Wheel of Fortune, KOMO, 7 PM
Jeopardy!, KOMO, 7:30 PM

Time changes:

Family Feud, KMYQ, has been 11 AM - 12 noon, will be 9 AM - 10 AM
Who Wants to be a Millionaire?, KONG, has been 7 PM - 8 PM, will be 6 PM & 7 PM

(No word as to which Millionaire slot will be new eps; KONG has been running new eps in the first slot, followed by a rerun from the last season.)

The new kids on the block:

Temptation, KMYQ, 10 AM (creating a 90-minute morning block w/ Feud)
Merv Griffin's Crosswords, KONG, 6:30 PM (soon to be known as "in the Millionaire hammock?")

Wrong. KNTV, channel 11. Which also picks up quite nicely over the air, thank you. They don't even NEED cable.

And for that...

I hear ya; I was quite disappointed to see that no affiliates in Lincoln or Omaha picked up Crosswords. However, at least we got Temptation...

. No double runs here, either; KCWL in Lincoln will air it at 11 a.m. and KXVO in Omaha will air it at noon (both are CW affiliates).

I wonder if I might be able to DX KHAS (cool to know there's an actual name for that as opposed to "futzing with the antenna")? If not, then I guess I'm waiting until Christmas break when I go back to Chicago to see Crosswords...sad...

Less than two weeks until we get "Tempted"...yay...

I'm e-mailing the Omaha stations since I've seen no promos for either. WOWT is a no to both so far.

I haven't heard anything about Temptation, either, which makes me kinda nervous that I won't be able to see it! However, I have heard that KHAS in Hastings is going to show Crosswords, but I don't know when. Now, here's what I don't get: It's the Lincoln/Hastings NBC affiliate, but we get Omaha's, WOWT, so I might have to see if I can get KHAS via antenna.

Anybody know if a station in Lincoln or Omaha picked up Temptation? (fingers crossed)

I do now... KXVO 15 will be running "Temptation" at noon weekdays. But they and KPTM are apparently a no to "Crosswords". Hmmm...
[/quote]
According to one site, "Crosswords" was sold to at least some stations owned by Gray Broadcasting, which owns Omaha's WOWT. But I just checked Sept. 10-11 listings for the big three stations, and "Crosswords" isn't on any of them. As For KPTM (Fox) and KXVO (CW), their program grids are fixed so I only see seven days ahead, so I don't know at this time if they ever plan to show it.

But here's what REALLY gets me: WOWT also has an indie station on subchannel 6.2 and on Cox Digital Cable called 620 which conceivably could pick up "Crosswords", but so far, nothing. This fall, I'd love to see WOWT itself clear an overnight hour for the NBC All Night one-week-later Conan replays and move whatever bumps them to 620, also, try and replay "Ellen" in prime time since it occasionally gets interrupted for local or NBC news bulletins or bumped for Wimbledon or other network sports in the afternoons. Plus, they could have "Crosswords" on 620 even in prime time (though if I were programming 620, I'd have "Crosswords" replace those weekday-afternoon "Bernie Mac" reruns which I'd then run through a mulcher!).

Of course, since 620 is clearly programmed to appeal mainly toward ages 12-29, no such luck.

In Chicago, "J!" and "Wheel" are staying where they are on WLS (3:30 p.m. and 6:30 p.m.). "WWTBAM" is probably staying where it is double run at 11 a.m. on WGN.

WMAQ is carrying "Crosswords"--I believe at 4 p.m.

WPWR is carrying "Temptation," but no indication what time yet.
[/quote]

Just checked Zap2it.com and WMAQ has "Crosswords" at 2pm (Double Run), and WPWR will carry "Temptation" at 1pm (Double Run, again). Apparently "Crosswords" will go against Jerry Springer at that time, and "Temptation" will run against "Days of our lives".
