  1. DirecTV is still talking with NewsMax from a B&C article was posted on Sun.
  2. WXSP .2 dropped COZI TV last week and added Stadium afternoons is just Live On Line & College Hoops Live every other hour with some repeats of sports and MMA in primetime.
  3. I think WWMT will air 4PM newcast/lifestyle program A.K.A. pay for play come the fall since they haven't ever had a lifestyle show they have a couch when they got a new set in 2020. I don't think I have seen any of the anchors use the couch. Maybe they put Tamron Hall in the afternoons if they don't want to do news. Dr. Phil repeats will air on sister station CW7 which they already do.
  4. Spectrum added Fox Weather first of the year on channel 689 in Kazoo. Fox Weather is on par and even better than The Weather Channel in my opinion, the website should have more info with cities across America than just hour by hour in front of the homepage. I guess they want you to download the Fox Weather APP for more of the info Weather .com & ACCUWeather websites much better for the info, sees that Fox Weather's website is more articles on weather than anything else. I wish that Fox Weather would add the local cities now that they are on a few Pay TV companies like in Michigan GR, BC, Kazoo etc. Great job on the updates Spring Rubber.
  5. I'm surprised NewMax hasn't filed a lawsuit against DirecTV they'll lose just like there pals OAN it's just business.
  6. Byron Allen been speaking to members of congress trying to stop the Standard General & TEGNA merger NY Post reported on it last week on there website. I'll let someone else to link it I'm not good at it when it comes to articles. Loos like The DOJ will approve the merger in Feb.
  7. I prefer Pineapple Express. I don't mind the weather alert days during thunderstorms that NWS puts the orange level WWMT was the first to use it in 2021 then WOODTV started to do it last year with low, medium. & high for damaging winds, tornadoes, & hail etc. They don't over use them just to be weather aware when it is warranted.
  8. I only see NewsNation on The CW for a special murder mystery or something like that kinda what Fox does with TMZ with a few specials a year in primetime.
  9. I'll check out LIV Golf to see if it's good or not I don't like that LIV Golf is Saudi backed. I think whatever local The CW airs on weekend syndication will be moved in the early morning hours or late night hours in my opinion.
  10. Yeah, does sound like The Soup and also the short TV show in Syndication in 2015-16 season Crazy Talk with Ben Aaron Ginger Zee's husband. I wonder if Fox17 will sign on for Channel Surf for late night or go on CW7 or WXSP the only TV stations I think would take it.
  11. I think it's smart to move Kelly to NYC for the tax breaks as LA/Cal has too much taxes for the space that Kelly is using.
  12. I can find almost anything on TV I have the TV on 24/7 I have to sleep with the TV on got that from my grandparents on my mom's side even when local TV stations signed off in the 50's, 60's, 70's. They had it on CNN mostly if I spent the night at there house. Before I slept with the TV on all night long I had the lights on and the radio I don't like pitch dark and sight either, I have to have sound all the time I'm weird LOL sorry if I went a bit off topic.
  13. LIV golf will be paying with time buy as NYNewsJunkie said to air on The CW which be weekends I wonder if it be live or tape delay for primetime 8PM to 10PM? I thought that LIV wanted to do a a buy time with the Fox but Fox wasn't interested why no deal never happened.
  14. I remember when PAX first came on it had to share at first was QVC then shared with TV Guide Channel was from 6PM to 1AM WZPX did air UPN from 11PM to 1AM 98-99 season when LIN launched UPN on low-power WXSP. Suckyvision oh I mean Cablevision didn't put it in the lineup WXSP. When WZPX got The WB was when they got there own channel in fall 99 The WB was on WGN before they went with superstation branding in fall 99 with no WB primetime, the only thing that was ever in pattern was Kids WB as WB primetime was on a 22-hour delay Monday shows aired on a Tue until The WB ended in fall of 06. I called Pax paid programming network and the I Network as I Suck Network WZPX was one of highest rated PAX stations across the country largely because of The WB. I was surprised that ION did air NFL Game Of The Week in fall of 07 that only lasted for one season was also surprised they aired UFC & WWE in 2011 & 2012 as not surprised both failed they couldn't keep the fans after the shows were over. I'm not surprised that Scripps will try to put sports on ION it will be more local sports in my opinion, I was surprised that Scripps didn't buy WZPX since it isn't a top 4 TV station in West Michigan when they own Fox17.
  15. I can see JHud being renewed looks like most of the shows from this year will get a second season from B&C article I read last week. I wonder if On Patrol in a 30 minute format will be in syndication like Live PD was for a couple of years ago with 30 minute block or an hour? Or if TV station groups don't want reality type cop show because of social justice and May 2020 death of George Floyd, WXSP did air Cops until the end of Aug 2020 when it was pulled.
  16. Michaela Pereira will largely be on CW or MYNet TV in my opinion. And PPI TV shows don't ever release which markets the show will be on.
  17. Never seen a TV station group tell them to demand a rebate when TV stations go dark with insert Pay-TV provider like Nexstar did with Comcast before they got a new deal.
  18. I'm not surprised that NBC will program 10PM On Chi, L&O do well in the 3 hour block. West Michigan has 3 10PM newscast 2 are just half hour newscast Fox17 goes from 10PM to 11:30PM. I remember when CW7 launched a 10PM newscast their slogan was news in half the time a dig at Fox17 they got rid of the slogan years ago. I agree too much local news West Michigan doesn't have much news in a day to fill why I think 4PM news in this market isn't good in my opinion.
  19. I was surprised no date was given when the local Nexstar TV stations go dark on Comcast guessing Jan 1 12AM in my opinion. I think Nexstar has other deals with pay-TV that ends at on Dec Charter Spectrum & Mediacom I could be wrong on that will not know unless there is a scroll on the TV. Nexstar filed a lawsuit against Comcast also Charter Spectrum in 2021 over WPIX both want the FCC to make WPIX own to Nexstar. That could be dropped when a new deal becomes final. I think that Nexstar & Comcast dispute could be a long one in my opinion. The end of 2019 was when Comcast & Nexstar signed the 3 year deal. Forgot to say WPIX in the post last night. I didn't know that Nexstar also sued Spectrum I thought that was only Comcast found out on B&C article on Comcast & Nexstar stations going dark.
  20. I'm surprised that Fox didn't sign on for People Puzzler since they seem to be the launch group for these type of shows be a later date along with other TV station groups. West Michigan Sinclair, Nexstar or Scripps takes the show.
  21. I thought that Fox and DirecTV would get a deal done at the 11TH hour.
  22. TBD is on WWMT .3 which use to be Comet before moving to WXSP .3 kinda surprised that Sinclair did that let a rival air there diginets.
  23. My heart and prayers to the families of the victims so very sad.
  24. Nexstar will have full control in 2024 they got $54 million who wouldn't want to take it I know I would do that deal in a hart beat.
  25. Due to the World Cup WXMI Fox17 will air Jennifer Hudson at 3AM for a few weeks. The other shows will not be aired The List, We The People, ICrime unless they play them on subchannel.
