Regis & Kelly on NBC stations.

I know for a fact that Regis & Kelly airing on NBC stations either run the 4th hr or not. In Sacto, KCRA-TV which ran the show since 1999 when KOVR dropped it airs Regis & Kelly at 9 AM and then delay the 3rd hr of today at 10 AM but do not air the 4th hr. Also most recently KGW-TV in Portland, OR airs 4 hrs. of the Today show and then Regis & Kelly at 11 AM, but this past year KATU-TV ABC picked up the showand airs at 11 AM, KTVB in Boise does carry the 4 hrrs and then Regis & Kelly at 11 AM MT. Does any other station in your area run Regis & Kelly slicing the 3-4 hrs of the Today Show?
 
WHEC in Rochester NY runs Regis at 9, Today III at 10 and Today IV at 11...all in glorious SD, since they don't have the technical capability yet to take in syndicated HD or to delay network HD.
 
KPNX Mesa (Phoenix market) runs Today 1-3 in pattern 7-10 AM MT,
then Reege & Kel at 10, and Today hour 4 at 11.
 
NBC in Providence tape delays Regis and Kelly for one hour and airs them at 10. Then airs the final hour of the today show at 11. Seems kind of silly. I would just air the 4 hours of the Today show Live and then Air Regis at 11.

I know that WBAL airs R&K at 10 AM after the 3rd hr. and WYFF in Greensville, SC airs it at 9 AM with Today III at 10 AM. KTVB as I know does the Today 1-4 hrs. before R&K at 11 AM, a practice sister station KGW-TV did from '07-'09 (I know that KGW aired the show at 9 AM back from 1988-2005 before moving it to 10 AM and then 11 AM before KATU-TV Channel 2 runs it at 11 AM since at 9 AM they carry AM Northwest which used to be 1 hr, but got cut back to 1/2 hr so it can accompany WWTBAM? at 9:30 since Dr. Oz took it's 3 PM slot that WWTBAM once occupied. IMO, Portland, OR and Boise have some weird way of scheduling R&K since most if not all stations run it at 9 AM. For me, I watch R&K at 8 AM PT (9 AM MT) via KWGN-TV in Denver.

How is you're able to watch KWGN if you're on the West Coast? Satellite?

Cheers :D
 
Helena, Montana's KTVH-12 (nee..."Beartooth NBC") airs Regis and Kelly at 10 am, delaying the "Hoda & Kathie Lee Show" to 11 as does Tupelo, Mississippi's WTVA. Though until this fall they were delaying "Hoda and KL" until 1:30pm.

For anywhere but the east coast, I don't think it really matters what time slot Regis and Kelly airs as its going to be tape-delayed by default. When Regis and Kelly are live at 9am on the east coast, everywhere west of the Indiana/Illinois border to the Florida panhandle is airing either an hour of their network morning show (for CT it's the 2nd hour; MT, 1st hour), still in the last hour of local news (PT) or airing whatever it is they put on in the middle of the night (Alaska/Hawaii).
 
I don't think any West Coast station does this, but If I owned a West Coast station I think I would air Regis and Kelly LIVE at 6 AM. Then kick off Network programming at 7. I admit that it would be unique, but I bet that a lot of West Coast people would love to watch the show LIVE. Plus it prevents any kind of scheduling conflict with the Today show on those NBC afffiliates. I've always hated for programming to be tape delayed. So I would change that. Who likes that idea? I'm curious.
 
"R&K" live at 6 AM out West is thinking outside the box, I'll give you that; however, I would believe that most viewers would be accustomed to news/traffic/weather programming in that hour, with the type of show R&K does staying in the daytime hours.

KWGN is one of the several "superstations" carried by Dish Network... I think even WWOR, the longtime-castrated superstation...

Question...

Why wouldn't WHEC pick up the Central Time Zone Feed of Today III and IV? Doesn't NBC run a "Live" delay for each Time Zone (so that Today I airs at 7am local, in glorious HD?) I know that when GMA started in HD, ABC was short an "HD DVR" or two and Central Time stations only got the SD delayed feed, which has long since been fixed...

Does NBC "hard code" the hour into the graphics, or is it a local insertion?

Just another way to "Think outside the box", WHEC...

WMGM 40 in Atlantic City used to air R&K. When Today show expanded to 3 hours, they moved Regis to 10AM.
However IIRC Baltimore's WBAL 11 kept Regis at 9 but the 3rd hour of Today at 10. Baltimore always did things weird.

When Today expanded to 4 hours, WMGM dropped Regis (it might have been WPVI didn't want WMGM airing it, and WMGM was dropped); WBAL moved Regis to 10am, and they don't air the last hour of Today at all.

In Philadelphia, R&K used to air on WCAU 10, but IIRC, it was year after the conversion to an NBC affiliate, R&K moved to WPVI. At the time WPVI had dropped Donahue, experimented with Jenny Jones and Ricki Lake for a few years, and then picked up Regis and decided to stick to WABC's morning schedule ever since. I think it was a matter of time before WMGM lost Regis, whether Today had expanded or not.

In Baltimore, the situation is different, with WBAL, as Hearst can likely keep Regis as long they want.

While its a benefit for Hearst to delay it, it doesn't benefit the show and viewers who are used to watching it at 9, but may have crossed counties are now stuck in Baltimore DMA. Airing a tape-delay show in an East coast market, Baltimore, with Baltimore being so close in distance to New York sucks. (It should be live). At 10, it's a little late morning, and one can't call in, for the question/prizes, if the show still does that.

Yep, Dish carries KWGN-TV as one of their Superstation packages along with KTLA in Los Angeles, WPIX/WWOR in NYC/NJ and WSBK in Boston, MA. In addition, I watch the stations in LA (KABC), (KGO SF), and the National WGN (The Local WGN carries R&K at 9 AM in Chicago since it took the rights from WLS-TV in 2000.)
 
In Boston: Regis and Kelly airs at 9am on WHDH followed by the 3rd and 4th hour of Today Show from 10-12. Im surprised that the show doesnt air on WCVB seeing as it is the ABC station and the highest rated local station.

In Providence: Regis and Kelly airs at 10am on a one hour tape delay on WJAR sandwiched between the 3rd and 4th hour of Today.
 
WIS in Columbia carries Regis and Kelly at 10am, delaying the 4th hour of Today to 11am. They've always done that. The ABC in Charleston carries them at 9am. WYFF, as others said, carries it at 9am, delaying the third hour of Today (no 4th hour).

The Fox in Myrtle Beach carries them, not in HD, at 9am.
 
KXAN (Austin, Texas) airs Regis & Kelly at 9a, then carries thte last two hours of Today from 10a-12p, leading into their noon newscast.

Also, for the person asking, the time and temperature on the network morning shows are placed there by your local station, not the network.
 
KNVN Chico

KNVN -- the Chico CA NBC affiliate -- airs Regis+KellyLee @9AM. Then TodayHour3 @10AM and TodayHodaKathieLee @11AM. Then its InfoMercials @NOON, Days of Our Lives, then capped off with the Female Trifecta: Rachael, Ellen, Oprah.

Yay, life in Market #130.
zzzzzzzz
 
WXII Winston-Salem splits the Today show; Regis & Kelly
are on at 9, then Today continues from 10 to noon. BTW,
WXII is a sister station to WESH, WYFF, and WBAL.
 
An update from Rochester: evidently I hadn't watched Today III/IV in a while, because I have it on now and WHEC is indeed carrying it in HD, presumably off the Central Time feed.
