Retro: Dallas-Fort Worth - June 25-July 8, 1995
We're taking a trip to another market for this post, which will take a look at the schedules of some of the Dallas-Fort Worth area's television stations during the period of June 25 to July 8, 1995. The changes to television in the Metroplex that took place during this two-week period trace back to May 1994, when New World Communications signed an affiliation agreement with the Fox Broadcasting Company to switch most of the television stations it already owned through its 1993 purchase of SCI Television or had announced that it would acquire within weeks of the affiliation agreement's signing from Argyle Television Holdings and Great American Communications (formerly Taft Television and Radio Company and later Citicasters).
As a direct result of the New World-Fox deal, on July 2, KDFW-TV (channel 4) – a longtime CBS affiliate that New World acquired as part of the Argyle Television purchase – assumed the Fox programming rights for the Dallas-Fort Worth market. The switch resulted in the station expanding its news schedule from 19 hours per week to 30 hours per week (through the expansions of its weekday morning newscast to two hours, its 5:00pm newscast to one hour and the addition of a nightly prime time newscast at 9:00pm), and acquiring additional syndicated programming to fill certain time slots that were previously occupied by CBS programs which had not been filled by the expanded newscasts. The Fox-New World deal also affected three other Metroplex-area television stations:
* KTVT (channel 11) – which was owned at the time by Gaylord Broadcasting and operated as an independent station and regional superstation; KTVT replaced KDFW as the market's CBS affiliate under an agreement between Gaylord (which also saw fellow independent KSTW in Seattle-Tacoma operate as a CBS affiliate for two years before Gaylord's sale of that station to Viacom resulted in the CBS programming rights in Seattle move back to previous affiliate KIRO-TV in 1997) and the network. (The only non-network station in Dallas-Fort Worth that had a news department prior to the switch, KTVT expanded its news programming from seven to 12 hours per week, with the additions of an hour-long weekday morning newscast at 6:00am and a half-hour early evening newscast as well as the conversion of its late newscast from an hour-long prime time newscast at 9:00pm to a 35-minute broadcast at 10:00pm.);
* KDAF (channel 33) – one of the six original Fox owned-and-operated stations, which then-Fox parent News Corporation acquired as part of its 1986 purchase of Metromedia; its Fox Television Stations unit – which would later re-enter the Dallas-Fort Worth market when it bought KDFW and the other New World stations in 1996 – sold KDAF to Renaissance Broadcasting (as part of a two-station swap with the network's Denver affiliate, KDVR) in order to affiliate with KDFW under the New World deal. (After the network decided to move its programming to KDFW and sell KDAF, Fox cancelled then-ongoing plans to reinstate a news department for channel 33, which would not take place until subsequent acquiree Tribune Broadcasting launched a 9:00pm newscast for the station in 1999.);
* and KXTX-TV (channel 39) – then owned by the Christian Broadcasting Network and operating as an English-language entertainment station; KXTX relinquished its affiliation rights to fledgling The WB (with which it affiliated upon that network's launch the prior January) to KDAF.
NOTE: All content featured in this post was culled from the June 25 and July 2, 1995 editions of The Oklahoman's weekly TV listings magazine (then titled Television News), from which I source my schedule posts for the Oklahoma City market. Prior to its reformatting as TV This Week in May 1997, the supplement featured a regional listings section encompassing listings for Dallas-Fort Worth, Lawton-Wichita Falls, Ada-Sherman, Amarillo and Tulsa (as well as, prior to 1982, Fort Smith-Fayetteville). However, the regional listings generally encompassed only VHF stations (the sole exception being UPN affiliate KOKT-LP in Sulphur, Oklahoma, which was added to the section in September 1996), and as such, KDAF and KXTX are not covered here. (If anyone has daily listings for KDAF and KXTX or overnight listings for KDFW, KXAS, WFAA and KTVT during this timeframe, post them below.)
