In Cincy, Wheel and Jeopardy! would move to WXIX (now FOX) after all Scripps-owned stations dropped them in 2012.

In Dayton, Wheel would move to WHIO/CBS, but Jeopardy! remains on NBC (now WDTN) to this day. Dayton is likely the only market in the Eastern Time Zone that carries the two shows on separate stations.
 
Woody Woodpecker and Scooby-Doo bumped General Hospital in Dayton??? Just wow.
