  1. TMZ actually reported that today, and they also said that Amy & T.J. were made aware of that decision this morning. The story I read even has quotes from ABC News President Kim Godwin on the subject (supposedly, these quotes were from an editorial meeting at ABC News this morning). Unfortunately, I don’t have the link, but if you Google “TMZ Holmes Robach,” it should be one of the first stories that come up…..
  2. How long do contracts like these last (or specifically, contracts like the ones HLN has with cable companies), I’m curious? I’m not one to speculate, but I’m guessing the future of HLN can’t be good once the contracts you mentioned expire….
  3. Since Scripps owns the MTN (Montana Television Network) group of stations, I just thought I’d post it here…. Pretty disturbing story about their political reporter, Ashley Nerbovig (you may want to click on the affidavit in the story surrounding her arrest—it’s pretty bizarre!!): https://montanatalks.com/montana-tv-political-reporter-arrested-on-burglary-charge/
  4. That’s weird; I thought the show went out of production not long ago (unless WGN had a deal with the syndicator for another show and that fell through and the syndicator decided to give them this instead)…. On a related note, being that WGN has Friends at 3p and the station serves as the Chicago home of Antenna TV and Rewind TV, I wonder why the station didn’t lease any sitcoms from those networks to fill the 2p slot. I’d have gone with either Three’s Company or the Jeffersons to pair with Friends on the WGN schedule. Granted, these sitcoms may not draw a lot of viewers, but still, WGN’s move with Paternity Court reruns at 2p is a head-scratcher, I think….
  5. Interesting news. I don’t think KIRO is trying to be a Scripps station; my guess is there are some people who used to work at KIRO that now work for Scripps or vice versa, and they had a hand in getting “Afternoon Focus” and “The List” on the station. Maybe I’m wrong…..
  6. I mentioned Afternoon Focus in an earlier post. Here’s an article explaining it in detail (and the stations that’ll be carrying it): https://tvnewscheck.com/programming/article/scripps-local-media-and-scripps-networks-collaborate-to-launch-afternoon-focus/
  7. [info courtesy of Zap2It] For the Lafayette, LA market: —KATC: -Drew Barrymore remains at 9a (with both half-hours back-to-back; weird, I know) -Jeopardy! moves to 3p, with Inside Edition moving to 4:30p -The List airs at 3:30p (it had previously aired in the overnight hours) -A program called Afternoon Focus will air at 4p (this must be a Scripps-produced program, being that I saw in a previous post that WTMJ in Milwaukee is carrying it) -25 Words or Less airs at 12:35a —KLFY: -no changes —KADN: -Back-to-back episodes of Pictionary replace Maury at 3p -The Neighborhood (back-to-back eps) replace Daily Mail TV and Mike & Molly at 10p -American Housewife (back-to-back eps) at 1a -Modern Family moves to 11p, with Two & a Half Men at 12 midnight —KLAF: -NBC News Daily replaces Days of Our Lives at 1p -a run of The People’s Court airs at 2p, replacing The Doctors (not sure if it’s a placeholder or if it’s permanent) —MyAcadianaTV (KADN 15.3): -another ep of Family Feud replaces Right This Minute at 9a -Highway Through Hell (off-Weather Channel reruns) air at 1p
  8. I think the infomercials are placeholders at 1p on WJW until Karamo Brown’s show starts airing there the next week (as per the show’s website)…..
  9. That makes WSMV the second (?) Gray station to go all news outside of network programming (I know WBTV in Charlotte does this as well)… If it works in Nashville, as it apparently does in Charlotte, one wonders how many other Gray stations might try going all-news outside of network? I can see this working in maybe Louisville, St. Louis, or even Phoenix, probably. Of course, not sure about WGCL in Atlanta…..
  10. Yes (at 7am[!!], according to TVPassport).
  11. Wait: Isn’t Maury Povich calling it quits with his show at the end of this season?? That alone might be the reason why the show will soon be off WJZ’s airwaves…..
  12. Just when you've thought you've seen it all, there's this.......https://www.ftvlive.com/sqsp-test/2022/2/25/this-war-is-brought-to-you-by-applebees
