First time that Guyana has been featured, I think...there are several copies of Stabroek up on GNA at present..

VCT and Ch 7 programs subject to change if CBS scrambling programs

I take it that these (and maybe other) stations were getting their programming illegally?

I'd say that's entirely possible, given the notice VCT and Channel 7 published in their listings- where would they have sourced CBS anyway, a network feed? ???

 

[FreddyE1977]

huh....I always wondered what happened to shows like Misfits of Science.
Now I know. They get syndicated to Guyana!

My Cousin Vinny was an almost new release at the time. Hard to believe it was being shown
over-the-air in Guyana legally.

Thanks for this schedule Bluenoser =)

I really like this kind of bizarre TV schedule

I have a friend who is Guyanese. It's a former British colony, now independent, on the north coast of South America with a population that's roughly 50% from African background, 50% from India. Even though he's ethnically Indian, he speaks with a sort of Jamaican-Carribbean accent. Yeah, mon! There's a large Guyanese-Indian population in Richmond Hill, Queens, around Lefferts Boulevard. Very nice people.

He tells me local TV is like watching the community channel on cable in the U.S. But everyone is very interested in the U.S. and watches American TV and movies.

So sad that their country is primarily known for one American whack-job who used poison Kool Aid to murder his own people.
