Thanks for the TV memories of years past.

You may wish to recheck this block.
I know Password aired at 12:00 and Split
Second aired at 12:30, and the 12:30
block isn't listed here.

The 5:30-6pm half-hour is also missing.

XETV 6 would have run something then (another Marshal Dillon
a la 11pm?...being in TJ they seem to be devoid of local news)
following the early 5:00 airing of ABC News.

Prospect must have fed ABC News as early as 5 to the left coast
back then since, as I recall, the Vegas affil also ran it at 5.

It also appears--missing half hours aside--that ABC daytime
was run on an Eastern clock pattern rather than Central.

 

[ssetta]

How could Mister Rogers have aired on Channel 24 at noon right after Sesame Street at 11:30? Sesame Street was an hour show. Unless it was really on at 12:30.

 

[hipman2]

I'm guessing that the ABC stations could run the evening news anytime
as soon as it broadcast it for the right coast. It comes in handy when
ABC did live sports broadcasts at 5pm Pacific time.

From what I remember, ABC daytime shows followed the Eastern time zone schedule
while CBS had the Central time zone schedule. NBC had the 9am-noon at Central,
but the noon-3pm was Central minus 1/2 hour.

In circa March of 1974, ABC began to phase in an earlier start time for its daytime
schedule. Rather than starting at 11:30 for The Brady Bunch, it started at 10:30
and ended with the 3:00 airing of General Hosptial. It gets complicated and
warrants another subject. I'm working on a retro TV listings websection
and will post what I have later.

I'm guessing that the ABC stations could run the evening news anytime
as soon as it broadcast it for the right coast. It comes in handy when
ABC did live sports broadcasts at 5pm Pacific time.

At that time (1973) it was all Telco lines and the Pacific zone stations
received whatever ABC El Lay was feeding--mostly the left coast delay.
Since these listings note ABC daytime ran until 4:30, it is likely the first
opportunity for Prospect to feed the evening news was 5:00, as 4:30-5
was probably the closed-circuit DEF feed.

From what I remember, ABC daytime shows followed the Eastern time zone schedule
while CBS had the Central time zone schedule. NBC had the 9am-noon at Central,
but the noon-3pm was Central minus 1/2 hour.

That was always strange on NBC where ET/CT had a local hole at 1/12
(MT at 11) but PT went straight through without one. Had NBC been
this way back to when they began daytime tape-delay for the Pacific
zone (guessing circa 1957-58)? Prior to that, was it a mix of a Today
Show kinnie (another current thread), ET afternoon shows coming in
live in the morning, and ET morning shows kinnied in the afternoon?

In circa March of 1974, ABC began to phase in an earlier start time for its daytime
schedule.......It gets complicated and warrants another subject. I'm working on a retro TV listings websection and will post what I have later.

Looking forward to seeing all the "complications."

If anyone has any retro TV listings for the Pacific time zone cities, they can post
them in a separate thread and the readers could have a stab at them.

schedule. Rather than starting at 11:30 for The Brady Bunch, it started at 10:30
and ended with the 3:00 airing of General Hosptial.

Wouldn't this circa March 1974 period have been the time that The 6:30 Movie on KABC (and KGO in San Francisco) was moved three hours down and transformed into The 3:30 Movie? (I know that before the Prime-Time Access Rule kicked in starting 1971, both stations had The 6:00 Movie.)

 

[hipman2]

According to a Retro Los Angeles TV listing post earlier,
(January 24, 1974) channel 7 ran the movie at 6:30.
It's late afternoon lineup on that date:
4:30 Eyewitness News (Schubeck/Morris)
5:30 ABC News (Howard K. Smith/Harry Reasoner)
6:00 Eyewitness News (Hambrick/Morris)

According to the listing, 7 ran another movie at 9:30am.

(January 24, 1975) the movie ran at 3:30, followed
by news at 5 and 6, then ABC news at 7.

If anyone has a retro TV listings from March and April
of 1974, we could know whether the movie was moved
to 3:30 immediately after the ABC daytime shift
ahead one hour.

 

[Cmpb301]

I have the February 17, 1973 San Diego edition of TV Guide. XETV aired Hazel at 5:30. In the fall preview issue from September as an ind. Gilligan's Island was on at 5:00 and Mayberry R.F.D. art 5:30. Sometime that year Channel 39 fiinally became ABC for 5 years.

This change in Left Coast network feed doubtless would have been just as applicable for ABC's San Francisco O&O KGO-TV as for KABC, given that both stations had The Six-Thirty Movie up to 1974 and The 3:30 Movie afterwards.

 

[Mauro1515]

Does anyone know if KPBS San Diego conducted any local pledge drive(membership campaign) during the year 1973??

 

[Ccook55]

February 1973 was around the time NBC announced it was cancelling Concentration after a 14-plus year run. CBS's Price Is Right revival was simply more than a match (no pun intended).

 

[RandTV]

Regarding Hollywood Squares, regular panelist Wally Cox sadly died the next day. On a lighter note, The (New) Price is Right had Bob Barker handing out roses to the contestants who were all women, in honor of Valentine's Day.

I just the other day posted that part of my article on channel 39 which told the story, including the dates of the ABC programming moves from XETV to KCST.
