KERO Ch 23 was a genius schedule the first hour of NBC game shows at 3pm while Donahue aired at 9am. Just imagine those children in Bakersfield coming home from school watching Card Sharks.
 
KJEO aired The $1.98 Beauty Show but I do not see it anywhere on the schedule. Did they air it on Saturday nights?

My recollection is that it aired on Saturdays in most of the markets that ran it.
