I don't understand why most (if not all) of the CBS owned-and-operated stations aired NYPD Blue on Saturday nights after the late news. Most of these stations also aired Pensacola: Wings of Gold and Psi Factor: Chronicles of the Paranormal. Did CBS have an agreement with the distributors?
 
The O&O stations may have had a master agreement.

This date also fell during the brief period where CBS carried the PBA after ABC dropped it after many decades the year before.
