Tons of series I never knew were syndicated like "Private Benjamin", "Archie Bunker's Place", and "Beachcomber" (the Canadian series right?). That's what happens when the UHF boom meets the early 80s sitcom drought. Plus anyone amused WBNX airs "Lassie" reruns back to back but under different syndicated titles? You aren't fooling anyone.

According to Wiki, "The Beachcomber" was a British series.
 
Is that the right schedule for WEWS? As far as I'm aware, The Morning Exchange didn't become a 9-11 a.m. morning program until 1994.

I think you're right. I misread the schedule. It appears that they've cropped off Good Morning America's second hour from 8 to 10.
 
I forgot to mention that the Cleveland Plain-Dealer from 1986 is available on geneologybank.com.
