Daytime pre-emptions..still around?

[harrisburgpatv]

One of the most interesting topics that finds its way around here occasionally is daytime TV pre-emptions, such as which stations not airing "Family Feud" after its 1980 move to noon, etc.

I started to wonder - with the few shows left in daytime now, and a few already on the way out, are there any affiliates that don't air what's left? For example, do any CBS affiliates not air "Let's Make a Deal" at all? I can't imagine there's an affiliate out there that doesn't air Y&R, considering it's the #1 show in daytime...

I believe WNEM Flint/Saginaw/Bay City, MI, is running "Let's
Make A Deal" on DT2, as it did "Guiding Light." KOVR Sacramento,
which pre-empted "GL," came on board with "LMAD" and airs it at
9 AM.

Otherwise, excluding "All My Children" and "One Life To Live," which
will soon be gone, I can think of only a handful of delays. Of course,
CBS offers "Deal" in the morning, and I think about 40 stations carry
"Deal" at 9 or 10 AM. Otherwise I can think of only five CBS affiliates
that carry "Y&R" out of pattern: KMOV St. Louis, WAFB Baton Rouge,
WRAL Raleigh, and WLKY Louisville (4 PM local time), and WKYT Lexington,
KY (9 AM). "General Hospital" airs on WTVM Columbus, GA at 4 PM instead
of 3. That's all I can come up with (doesn't KOTV Tulsa carry "Bold And The
Beautiful" in the wee hours of the morning?).

I'm trying to put together a list of the stations that carry "Deal" in the morning;
this is what I've come up with and welcome your additions or deletions:

WIAT Birmingham, AL
KOVR Sacramento, CA
WFSB Hartford
WUSA Washington
WFOR Miami
WKMG Orlando
WPEC West Palm Beach
WCTV Tallahassee
WGCL Atlanta
WRBL Columbus, GA
WRDW Augusta, GA
WBBM Chicago
WISH Indianapolis
WANE Ft. Wayne, IN
WSBT South Bend, IN
WTHI Terre Haute, IN
WLKY Louisville
WGME Portland, ME
WJZ Baltimore
WBZ Boston
WWJ Detroit
WWMT Grand Rapids/Kalamazoo, MI
KRQE Albuquerque, NM
WCBS New York
WRGB Albany, NY
WBNS Columbus, OH
WOIO Cleveland
KOIN Portland, OR
KYW Philadelphia
KDKA Pittsburgh
WHP Harrisburg, PA
WYOU Scranton/Wilkes-Barre, PA
WPRI Providence, RI
WBTW Florence, SC
WVLT Knoxville, TN
WTKR Norfolk, VA
WTVR Richmond, VA
WVNS Bluefield, WV
WDJT Milwaukee
WISC Madison, WI

KCBS was on this list for a while but moved Rachael Ray back
to 9 AM (where she was when "GL" was on) and put "Deal" at
2 PM.

A handful of NBC affiliates, including WBAL-TV in Baltimore, do not carry the fourth hour of "Today."

(doesn't KOTV Tulsa carry "Bold And The
Beautiful" in the wee hours of the morning?).

KOTV runs B&B at 1:05AM.

I'd rather clean toilets or watch old Popeye cartoons than the current LET'S MAKE A DEAL.
A sorry excuse for a game show.

On Raleigh-Durham market CBS affiliate WRAL-TV, Y&R is aired at 4pm ET instead of 1:30pm ET. This was used to allow WRAL an hour long news at noon and to provide a strong lead-in to their 5pm news against their cross-town competitor, ABC affiliate WTVD, which had Oprah.

I started a thread over at the Raleigh-Greensboro board about whether or not this arrangement will change, since WTVD has filled Oprah's old time slot with an hour of local news at 4.
