Martha Stewart Show to FOX 61

I was watching something last night on FOX 61 and over the closing credits was a voice over "The Martha Stewart Show - Coming to FOX 61 WTIC-TV September 8th."

My question is will FOX 61 move Jerry, Maury, and Steve over to CW 20? The wholesome Martha Stewart show doesn't fit in with trash talk tv.

Wonder what's in store for this fall at NBC 30. I know they've picked up the syndicated version of Deal or No Deal.
 
Isn't her show distributed by NBC/U? I thought that was why WVIT-TV/DT ran it in syndication to begin with?

"Martha" is moving from WCVB to Fox 25 in Boston, too.

1. What is taking its place on WCVB?
2. What time will it air on Fox 25?
3. Where is the show that it's replacing there moving to?

You mean, it was just a voice-over, with no condensed screen or graphical bells and whistles? Only a voice-over?

Wow. I guess Trib is really serious about cutting back!

"The Bonnie Hunt Show" will air at 10am on WCVB. I have no idea what time its airing on Fox.
 
WVIT is getting "Bonnie Hunt" at 12noon, and "Deal or No Deal" at 4PM, therefore shifting 'Ellen" to 3PM and "The People's Court" to 2PM, and therefore I guess pushing "Martha" to FOX61. Thanks for posting that info. My mom watches the show at 2PM after "Days of our Lives". Hopefully, 61 would either air it at 2 or 3PM. I'm thinking 61 is trying to finally get away from the trash talk genre with "Maury", "Jerry", and "Steve". Since they expanded their news, I guess FOX61 is no longer second rate in daytime.

BTW, if anyone has a FOX61 and CW20 Fall schedule, please post! Thanks!
 
Does anyone know why Martha's show is getting moved around to different stations and different times? This seems a little ridiculous. And, btw, who the heck is Bonnie Hunt?
 
11AM was Martha's original time slot on WVIT back in 2005. I can't understand why "The People's Court" is favored more on 30. "Martha" was a great compliment to "Days of our Lives". Even though I didn't watch "Martha" much, I understand why my mom did.

It seems 61 is trying to get a decent group of shows in during the daytime. Jerry Springer will only air at 2PM, Steve Wilkos at 3PM, and Maury at 4PM (one airing each). The morning sees Tyra at 9AM, The Doctors (a Dr Phil type show) at 10AM and Martha at 11AM. I never expected 61 to do this, but they did. They should do themselves a favor and knock out the trash talk in the afternoon, send it off to 20 and ease up on their infomercials. Then, 20 and 61 would be a good duolopy. 20 seems like a lost stepchild to 61. The extras are dumped on 20.
 
Martha will be airing on WFXT at 10:00am, replacing Judge Alex. I'm not sure what's happening with that, but it sure does seem like Martha is being moved almost everywhere.
 
And to Fox stations, no less! Who knows, soon she might land on WNYW/Fox 5 in New York!

Bonnie Hunt - wasn't she on that "Mad About You" show? ???
