24994J 4764 Posted June 8, 2022 Share Posted June 8, 2022 Kaitlin Sharkey debuted tonight. Chris Boden was bummed that he missed the party. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
24994J 4764 Posted August 30, 2022 Share Posted August 30, 2022 (edited) So, the first TV listings of the new fall season are out, and there are a few notable changes on the WGN schedule. Despite the show wrapping production, I'm shocked that a rerun slate of Maury isn't included in the afternoon block. Instead, Lauren Lake's Paternity Court (yikes) slots in at 2pm. The biggest surprise, though, might come at 3pm, as Friends reruns return to weekday, daylight hours for the first time in forever. Personally, that programming decision feels like a placeholder move, but what do I know? Edited August 30, 2022 by 24994J 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All the NBC trash talkers will be on one place. Edited August 30, 2022 by CircleSeven Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Georgie56 2697 Posted November 1, 2022 Share Posted November 1, 2022 The Sun-Times’ Jeff Agrest is reporting that when WFLD’s deal with the Bears ends, WGN is a possible landing spot. Marquee is also in the running as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Georgie56 2697 Posted November 18, 2022 Share Posted November 18, 2022 Looked at WGN’s Thanksgiving schedule, and it appears they’re not running Bozo, Gar & Ray this year, instead replacing it with the two Bozo’s Circus 1960s and 1970s specials. Meanwhile, the Chicago Thanksgiving Parade finally has a new, proper home after last year’s VPOD embarrassment: WCIU. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't quote me on it, but I believe I saw that Bozo, Gar & Ray is airing on Sunday. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

24994J 4764 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 (edited) Before John Drury helped usher in the modern news department, the face of WGN News was Jack Taylor. We perhaps know him best from old broadcasts of the classic Night Beat. He passed away this weekend at 94, only retiring from any and all media work in the last few years. Obituary, from earlier tonight: Night Beat, 9/10/79: Edited February 6 by 24994J Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CircleSeven 1749 Posted February 6 Share Posted February 6 After he left Channel 9, he also anchored that financial news block that aired on WCIU for several years. May he rest in peace. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
