Was Price is Right really on twice a day back then? And don't you mean 4:00 for Jeopardy?

1.The morning version was the CBS version, the afternoon one was the syndicated version
2.Yes, I meant 4:00 PM. Thanks for catching that goof.

OK... What type of show was this? I was thinking it was a Friday show (a la TGIF) but I'm guessing it may be a religious program...

I am thinking it was some sort of news magazine but maybe someone else could elaborate further.

Since it doesn't appear again on the schedule for this day, my guess is that it's a repeat of a weekend magazine show.

There was a syndicated version of Price in the 80s? I never knew that. Who hosted, and how long did it last?

It lasted one season (1985-86), and it was hosted by Tom Kennedy ("Name That Tune", "Body Language", "Split Second" among his credits). In many markets, it replaced the nighttime version of Family Feud on those same stations. This version of Price would in turn be replaced by a syndicated version of Card Sharks the following fall.
 
I didn't know Oprah was on at 9am. I didn't even know the syndicated version of M.A.S.H aired on 11. When did M.A.S.H move to 26? And wasn't Entertainment Tonight on 11 at one point before moving to 2?
 
I believe KHOU carried the live feed of Oprah from WLS - back when it was a WLS production, including the big Circle 7 at the end...

I knew that Jeopardy started on 2, but didn't realize it had moved to 11 by 1986.
