Now @ 3 Cancelled

According to the ABC 15 website about the debut of ABC 15 News at 11am, RTM will be shown at 3. That effectively cancels Now@3, as we had noted with the departure of Rebecca Thomas.
 
I really did like Now@9.... I have tried RTM and what a waste that is ;-)
 
azenergyfan, I have to agree with you. RTM is simply AWFUL tv, even though I have given it multiple chances. I guess it would be marginally better than an infomercial, but only marginally better! :D

But, KNXV's syndication inventory has them dry on Saturday nights (up against SNL and the like). Henceforth, they have to run a three-hour block of RTM. And you're right, infomercials would probably be more profitable and receive similar ratings.

It will only get worse for KNXV and other Scripps stations when they drop the CBS/Sony game shows this fall.
 
Wow, RTM is really coming in handy for KNXV. On the weekend of 7/7, they plan on airing the show for 30 minutes at 4:30 Saturday afternoon, then the three-hour block late Saturday night, and Sunday afternoon at 3 for an hour. What, they couldn't sell those slots to infomercial brokers unless MagicDust is paying for these timeslots?
