Kicking The Infomercial Habit One Hour At A Time.....

[RadioFanBoy]

Of course I'm referring to the still alive ION Network. They have a coundown bug on screen, referring to a new look and new season beginning Sept 8th. The current schedule will pretty much stay the way it is now on the day, except programming will begin at 4pm with an hour of M*A*S*H. Qubo will run Wed-Fri from 3-4pm. Sat and Sun will still be programmed from 6-11pm. At this rate, the network should have a full 24-hour schedule by 2024

Other new shows to ION include reruns of Boston Legal and reruns of NCIS. Full schedule (for September anyway) can be found here: http://www.sitcomsonline.com/blog/2008/08/ion-television-september-2008-schedule.html

So with ION picking up M*A*S*H, will it still be on Hallmark? I know that it will probably stay on TV Land.

The bigger question is will M*A*S*H remain on the OTA that now run it, or will ION claim (can they?) market exclusivity?

When ION was running "Drew Carey," "Green Acres" and "Who's The Boss," and some others we had the same sitcoms reruning in Chicago on other stations so I doubt they can claim market exclusitivity, unless it's a new thing
