Syndication for 2023-24

It seemed like Family Feud couldn't keep any regular host for very long and was on the borderline of being canceled from Louie Anderson to John O'Hurley, until Steve Harvey took over. But I agree that there are too many sexual questions now.
I Think Family Feud is no longer aired on Sinclair and Gray Televison station group and not in the list after 2022-23 season.
 
Either it's a landmark transition period for syndication or (more likely) the beginning of the end for national OTA syndication. I doubt even Dr. Phil is performing at pre-pandemic viewer levels, as are the rest of the shows. Streaming might be what kills broadcast syndication.

Big Bang reruns are only netting a 2.1 in the ratings in the week ending Jan 22, LOWER than Inside Edition! And that remains the #1 sitcom strip.

Yes, but unfortunately, some televison station group has been pre-empty such as last year mid-term election and 2022 Qatar World Cup in last december (due to extremerly summer heat).

and secondary, especially african-american audiences watch Steve Harvey version (like Sherri, Tamror Hall or Jennifer Hudson Show).

Compared to 2021-2022 to 2022-2023 KDSM fox 17 which aired alot of sitcom reruns between 5pm and 7pm and 10pm -5am changed significantly to the next season with only airing 4 3 sitcoms and 1 animated sitcom in the 2022-23 season. They only air The Big Bang Theory, Two and a Half Men, Seinfeld and The Simpsons. Of course The Simpsons gets the 4:30am slot during the week but gets a 2 hour Midnight through 2am block on Saturday nights.
 
In "battleground" states, especially in the 3-4 P.M. hour, the answer may be More. Local. News.
It depends on market demand and size; consider NYC, Chicago, Philly, DC, San Diego, DFW, andRaleigh. Also Gray TV owned CBS CT affiliate WFSB has a 3pm talk show Better CT. Nexstar has a local talk show for Fresno NBC affiliate KSEE24.

I think that WWMT will air a 4PM news in the fall as they can move the repeats of Dr. Phil on CW7 which they already do at 10AM. WWMT could air Tamron Hall in the afternoons if they don't want to air a newscast or a lifestyle show. A few years ago WWMT did put a couch in the studio when they updated it they hardly use it as is.

WZZM or WXMI might be the other choices perhaps
