25 was in Biloxi -- it's their local Fox affiliate. They picked up NYPD Blue when WLOX refused to show it.

Realized that this morning :D...don't know why I put Biloxi in that question, I had originally asked the question for Jackson and Meridian, but had a brain cramp and put Biloxi in there ::)
 
Mississippi had a total ban (and was the only state in the nation to have such a ban) on NYPD: Blue--until December, 1994.

In December, 1994, two of Mississippi's five ABC affiliates--WABG (Greenville) and WTOK (Meridian)--lifted their bans on the show.

And in January, 1995, WAPT (Jackson) did the same.

But in March, 1995, WTOK reinstated its ban.

And in January, 1995, WAPT (Jackson) did the same.

But in March, 1995, WTOK reinstated its ban.

It aired in Biloxi on WXXV from September 1994 for the length of the show's run (until 2005), according to WXXV's Wikipedia article.

Also in 1995, WLOV (northeast Mississippi's ABC affiliate at the time) would drop ABC for FOX. I'm assuming they never aired NYPD Blue while they were ABC.
 
Interesting that stations were airing Jeopardy! twice a day as early as 1994. WALA still airs it today under its FOX affiliation, albeit now only once per day at 6:00 PM, with Wheel of Fortune following it at 6:30, except on Thursdays where it's bumped to 2:30 AM due to Thursday Night Football. Most of the other the stations carrying WOF at the time still carry it today, all still at 6:30 Central, of course, except for WWL; both Jeopardy! and Wheel moved to WVUE/FOX by the late 2000's, at 6:00 and 6:30.
 
Apparently, WXXV (Fox 25)--Gulfport/Biloxi's Fox affiliate--did air NYPD: Blue since WLOX banned the show.

WLOV (Fox 27)--Tupelo's Fox affiliate since 1995--never aired NYPD: Blue. However, WKDH (ABC 45)--Tupelo's new ABC affiliate (2001-2012)--did air the show, believe it or not.

WTOK lifted its ban on NYPD: Blue in December, 1994--but reinstated it in March, 1995. Since then, I'm guessing WTOK never aired NYPD: Blue again.
