Less Infomercials, More Trash Talk on WCCT-TV 20

MarcB

WCCT-TV 20 (Waterbury, CT) in Hartford has a new line-up that goes into effect today. Out is their 4 hour long infomercial block that had been airing 4AM-8AM. (Now it's just 4AM-5AM) In is more trash talk TV.

5AM FOX 61 Morning News (Replaces Infomercials)
6AM Jerry Springer *Primary Run* (Replaces Infomercials)
7AM Steve Wilkos *Primary Run* (Replaces Infomercials)
8AM Maury *Primary Run* (Replaces FOX 61 Morning News)

The Runs of Steve Wilkos and Jerry at 11AM and 12PM now become secondary runs. Maury's 1PM airing has been replaced by The Bill Cunningham Show. A 2nd episode of Maury remains on at 2PM.

With the 3 trash talk shows on 6AM-9AM it's only fitting that they're airing My Name is Earl 9AM-10AM. The characters on that show could easily be guests on any of the 3 shows.
 
Hilarious. "The Baby Mama Drama In The Morning Block!" :D

Could this be the earliest possible time that a syndicated show has even run? 6 AM? I've seen 8 AM for some shows. Last I saw a talk show at 6 AM was "Geraldo" on WAGA in Atlanta, some 20 years ago when they were a CBS affiliate.
