  1. One problem with this schedule is that CBS affiliates in the Central & Mountain time zones may balk at the idea of having a network show at 9AM.
  2. They instead had to fill time by airing Judge Judy reruns with a message saying what had happened. Their noon newscast didn't start until 12:50pm.
  3. I've wondered what would have happened if Hearst acquired the former Fisher TV stations instead of Sinclair in 2013. If that would have happened, then KLEW-TV in Lewiston, ID would have become a Hearst station.
  4. Part of a November 1994 interview, on WDAF-TV, Ch. 4 in Kansas City, MO, with Fox chairman & CEO Rupert Murdoch about WDAF-TV's affiliation switch from NBC to Fox which happened almost 2 months earlier.
  5. I originally posted the following on the Ion board: I wonder if, based on the programming & branding changes that have occured at KUPX, KMCC & KASW, Scripps owned independent TV station KMCI-TV, Ch. 38 in Kansas City, MO, will eventually drop it's longtime "38 the Spot" branding & start using some branding like Kansas City 38 or even KC 38?
  6. A little bit off topic, but I wonder if, based on the programming & branding changes that have occured at KUPX, KMCC & KASW, Scripps owned independent TV station KMCI-TV, Ch. 38 in Kansas City, MO, will eventually drop it's longtime "38 the Spot" branding & start using some branding like Kansas City 38 or even KC 38?
  7. I'n not sure if VHSgoodiesWA has seen this, but here is a video that YouTube recommended to me recently showing how KIMA made their commercial break tapes in 1991.
  8. According to some old archived webpages, WB affiliate KWGN-TV, Ch. 2 in Denver, CO, was carrying Live with Regis & Kelly around 2001-02, however there's a chance that even they would have not carried this episode either as they usually aired the show between 9-10AM MT. The first attack happened at 6:46AM MT & was before KWGN-TV's morning newscast which, at the time, started at 7AM. I think that there is a 50/50 chance that they would have been carrying a live feed from CNN, or NYC sister station WPIX, that morning.
  9. Video reuploaded, by the original uploader, to fix some glitches. A pre-launch test broadcast from KSCH, Ch. 58, Sacramento, CA, from April 1986. What kinds of test patterns were shown here?
  10. The ATSC 3.0 signals of the CBS & MyNetTV (Both Gray owned.) & ABC & CW (Both Hearst owned.) in Kansas City, MO are now encrypted. The ATSC 3.0 signals of the Fox (Nexstar owned.), independent & NBC (Both Scripps owned.) & PBS (Locally owned.) are still in the clear.
  11. A pre-launch test broadcast from KSCH, Ch. 58, Sacramento, CA, from April 1986. What kinds of test patterns were shown here?
  12. A rare sign on from KOAA-TV, Ch. 5, Pueblo, CO, from 1987, featuring both the a variation of the 1979-86 & 1986-current NBC logos! Did KOAA-TV come up with the "Proud N 5/30" logo a year, or so, before NBC debuted their current logo & KOAA-TV decided to tack the current NBC logo onto their "Proud N 5/30" logo?
  13. There was also a YouTube channel named Alton Wright that was doing the same thing, only with PBS TV stations. He hasn't uploaded anything in over a year & seems to have given up on the channel.
  14. A behind the scenes tour of WBOC-TV, Ch. 16 in Salisbury, Maryland, circa 1960's.
