That's interesting... I only thought LIN got rights to these shows mostly so that its new sister station, WTVU/WBNE/WCTX, had some filler programming! I had no idea WTNH would bury these on a Friday late night.
 
LIN mostly used the older shows for channel 59 but also used a few of them to fill time on WTNH when they had nothing better to run. Still while these shows ran ad hoc on Channel 8 they ran far more on Channel 59.
