I'm sure it's been discussed before, but please refresh my memory--
why didn't WSMV carry Carson? Did they want to delay it an hour
(and of course NBC told them to take a hike)?
 
My guess was that WSMV wanted to delay Carson and Letterman each by an hour and NBC would have let them if they could find noone to carry the show. But being WZTV wanted the program, they determined that it was better to have Carson at its corrrect time than later on the affiliate.

Were there other NBC affiliates beside WSMV, WTMJ 4 in Milwaukee, and WMAR 2 in Baltimore that did not carry Johnny Carson in the 1980's?
 
I was able to see Hopkinsville cable in 2002. Evansville wasn't available but Channel 6, 13 and 35 were offered along with Nashville.
