New shows coming into your market in Sept. 2015

This is inspired by a similar thread about last year's new shows. Which new syndicated programs are coming to your market this fall? Also, which returning shows are changing timeslots or stations?
 
I have heard NOTHING for Yakima-Tri Cities.
KIRO 7 Seattle is picking up "The Fab Life," a new Disney-ABC show with Tyra Banks and a bunch of other hosts. It's also cleared on the Disney/ABC owned stations, like WABC and KABC.
WCIU 26 Chicago gets "2 Broke Girls" five nights a week starting in September.

As for other new shows appearing in general, "Last Man Standing" gets a weeknight syndicated run starting in September.
For weekends, Elementary, Person of Interest, Rookie Blue and Rizzoli & Isles (a TNT show) get off-network reruns.
Just for Laughs: Gags is also being reran in the U.S., which originally aired on CBC in Canada.

For game shows, syndicators are playing around with a daily version of "Mind of a Man" from GSN, and a new version of What's My Line? may be coming in the near future. CBS is also tooling around with a revival of Hollywood Squares, which was last aired in syndication from 1998-2004 with Tom Bergeron. No one is giving any promises yet.

Only show I've seen being touted is repeats of 2 Broke Girls on WUPA.
 
I saw an ad on FOX61 in Hartford, CT yesterday for Crime something or other airing weekdays at 3PM starting in September. Don't remember the full name, but it's displacing one run of People's Court. I no longer watch People's Court, so I don't know which airing on FOX 61 is the first run and which is the secondary one. It airs at 1PM and 3PM.

Today I saw a commercial for "2 Broke Girls" Weeknights at 10PM and 10:30PM this fall on WCCT-TV 20. WCCT-TV is sister to FOX 61 above.

I just saw the promo for '2 Broke Girls' coming to the Quad Cities on KLJB. It is not yet known if Fox 18 will share this program with either WHBF or KGCW...

To follow up. Last night watching "Mike & Molly" reruns and saw a different promo for "2 Broke Girls". It showed Caroline talking on her cellphone and you can hear a man saying "We need another dozen cupcakes at WCCT." Caroline tells Max and she can't believe it. There's a banner hanging in the diner that says "Hartford Specials 5 Times A Week." Then Oleg sticks his head out of the window in the kitchen spots a box of decorated cupcakes spelling out "2 Broke Girls 5 Nights a Week. WCCT-TV Home of the CW."
He asks the girls about the cupcakes and they tell him it's a special order for WCCT.
 
The "Crime" show that WTIC is picking up is called "Crime Watch Daily" and is being syndicated by Warner Bros.

Speaking of Canada, "Just For Laughs" isn't the only import making their way onto American TV screens for 2015. The CTV Daytime hit talker "The Social" and "Rookie Blue" are also debuting in first run syndication.

Hot Bench was already on this year. Maybe it moved channels in Cleveland for 2015-16.

No promos for any new shows at all on any Yakima stations. Not even 2 Broke Girls!
 
I do not know about my local KC market yet, mum's the word advertising wise. However, via the "Inspect Element" tool on the cached TBS page, I found out that "New Girl" will air weekdays at 3 p.m. on TBS, and 2 Broke Girls will air starting Sept. 22, and the schedule looks like this on Tuesdays and Wednesdays:
8:00 Big Bang
8:30 2 Broke Girls
9:00 Big Bang
9:30 2 Broke Girls
10:00 Big Bang
10:30 2 Broke Girls
It will also marathon on Thursdays nights for 3 hours. I also saw that the next Monday, it will air at midnight.
 
UPDATE: Meredith Vieira's talk show will move in the Quad Cities to KWQC this fall, replacing the cancelled Queen Latifah show, but still airing at the same time (2pm). Also, Judge Judy is moving back to WQAD AND airing her at 2pm-- same time as before...
 
I wouldn't be surprised if 2 Broke Girls shows up on KCYU Fox 41/KFFX Fox 11 here in central Washington. They took Mike & Molly last year.

BTW, what shows are LEAVING next month, other than Queen Latifah?
 
There is a new show premiering called "Crazy Talk" - hosted by Ben Aaron and Tanisha Thomas, talking about bizarre moments in reality TV/trash talk (yuck), and then putting a comedic twist on them.
ALL of the CW Plus affiliates will air a double run from 10-11AM local time.
In Seattle, KSTW-11 has a double run from 9-10AM, replacing the now-cancelled Queen Latifah. Portland's KPDX-49 airs it at 10:30AM. As for the biggest markets, WWOR (NYC), WLVI (Boston), KCOP (LA) and WPWR (Chicago) have cleared this show.
The Social (which airs on CTV in Canada) will most likely launch this fall, compared to September 2014.
 
"The Social" will be fed live on both continents at the same time "The View" airs - 11am Eastern. I believe the show will be looped after that hour so the US stations can slot it any hour they wish. As for what US stations are picking up the show, it looks like mostly CW stations that are on the DT2 side. The largest market to air "The Social" will be San Francisco via KOFY-TV 20. The US run begins August 31st.
