5B- Tattletales

Am I reading this right? WCVB airing Tattletales in early '85 after CBS canceled the show the previous summer? I want to know the story behind this.
 
I find it a little strange that both WTNH and WPRI didn't carry daytime Family Feud, but carried the nighttime show only. Also, unless I missed it, none of the Boston stations listed didn't carry neither Feud...of course, at this point in time, both versions would be off the air by that summer.
