With all the talk about what aired when on the "Syndie Ratings" page, I was wondering how many stations bounced around a certain show?

I'll give you an example, the current version of Feud, airing in Phoenix, Arizona:
9/20/99 - 9/15/00: KASW, 11AM
9/18/00 - 9/14/01: KPNX, 2-3PM
9/17/01 - 9/05: KASW, 1-2PM
9/05 - 9/7/07: KPHO, 3-4PM
9/10/07-: KTVK, 1-2PM

Im my area, FF started on WCAU(NBC 10) in 1999.  After a couple years, it moved over to WTXF(Now Fox 29).  Then for some odd reason, WKBS(Channel 48) apparentky gpt it for a spell in 2002 before it disbanded to EWTN I think,  Then it went back to Fox 29 fpt a couple more years.  Then it went to MyPHL-17 for a bit before settling in at KYW(CBS 3) where it's been now since 2007.

Not so much the stations, but some shows in Norfolk/Newport News have seen plenty of schedule changes.

Feud 99 started off on WTKR at 10:30am.
In fall-2000, it moved to WVBT at 12 noon, and that station bounced it around a few times, to 6 pm, then 6 am, then 2:30 am.
In spring-2003, WTVZ picked up the show, and aired it in an 11 am double run, then a 5 pm double run, then back to 11 am when Ryan Seacrest's short-lived talk show debuted. Since fall-2004, it's been shuffled between 11 am and 2 pm (it's since aired from 1-2 since 2006, but WTVZ has at least kept it in daytime hours.

Between 2000 and 2004, WTKR constantly switched Hollywood Squares' time slot. It would air at 4 pm, then 4:30, then back to 4, then 4:30 again.

/Wheel has kept its 7:00 time slot on WVEC since 1984.
//The first season, it aired at 7:30, following Love Connection

WEWS has that beat; Wheel's been at 7 PM since day 1 in 1983.

On the flipside, any other "records" for timeslot longetivity?

Quite possibly the show that follows America's Game on WEWS Newschannel 5.....Jeopardy!, which has held the 7:30pm spot since 1984. Taking the question from Gus a step further, I wonder how many stations other than WEWS have held WOF and J! in tandem in the same hour in the same order since 1984.

Aaron Sica might be able to answer this better, but I think that WHP (Harrisburg, PA) might be able to claim this title, with WoF and J! in that order in the 7p hour.

I know that WPVI cannot, because I remember that they aired J! in early fringe when it debuted.

Well, if not for Kennedy PiR, WHP might have been able to hold that title. WoF has been on at 7pm since 1984. Jeopardy has been on at 7:30 since 1984 as well, except for the 85-86 season when it was demoted to 5:30 to make room for Kennedy PiR. Once that was cancelled, J! moved back into the 7:30pm slot, where it's been ever since.

On the Wheel/J! front, but in another direction...

As far as I know Wheel's aired at the same time since it came to NYC. Jeopardy!, I wanna say, has bounced around a bunch but has aired at 7 PM since 1987.

Feud started out here at noon on WWOR, then moved to 4, then I think back to noon, then to 2 on WNYW, then to 3 on WWOR, then the same slot on WNYW, then back to WWOR at 3 where it is now.

WKBW Buffalo has had Wheel of Fortune at 7 since Aug 1983.  They aired the first season of Jeopardy at 5:30 in '84, but moved it to 7:30 the next year, where it's been ever since.

Kinda hard to believe that for anyone under 26 years old in C-Town, Wheel has always been on Channel 5 at 7PM.

And if memory serves me right, the show that Wheel replaced in that very time slot on WEWS was The Joker's Wild while the show that Jeopardy replaced one year later at 7:30 was Tic Tac Dough!

On WLS Chicago, "Wheel" at 6:28 p.m. since January 1984, "J!" at 3:30 p.m. since September 1984.

Your memory has served you wrong, dear Tim. WOF replaced The New You Asked For It at seven while J! replaced TJW at the 7:30 half hour. TTD had moved to then-NBC O&O WKYC-TV Channel 3 by this time.

And boy did WLS pimp the heck out of it. I recall as a kid seeing ads in TV Guide regarding not just Jeopardy, but also a picture of the champion THAT WEEK. Fun times.

Sticking to that particular age, I remember the syndie version of Combs Feud airing against Wheel at 6:30 on WMAQ Channel 5, then moved to WGBO Channel 66 at 9:30 pm sometime after 1990, where it stayed until 1995; WGBO stuck with it even during Dawson's return year.

When I was out in Jersey visiting last September, Feud was on 29 at 4:30am, right after TP:  America Plays.  So you left out a move.  As for Channel 48, don't you mean WGTW?  WKBS has been gone for 25 and a half years. :-)
