I see that there were a lot of delays of network shows:

WHAS--Channel 11 (CBS)

3:00 PM Medical Center(delay from Wednesday)
4:00 PM Hawaii Five-O(delay from Tuesday)
5:00 PM Petticoat Junction(delay from previous Saturday,but a few weeks later the show ended its run)
7:00 PM Governor And J.J(delay from Tuesday)

WLKY--Channel 32(ABC)
3:00 PM Here Come The Brides(delay from Wednesday,a few weeks later the show ended its run)
4:00 PM Brady Bunch(delay from Friday)

I'm not sure if I have the delays right,but you can check and see if that they are right.

Actually, Hawaii Five-O still aired Wednesdays at 10;
it didn't move to Tuesday until 1971.

Like many CBS affiliates at the time, WHAS ran a movie
on Wednesday nights, explaining the delays of Medical
Center and Hawaii Five-O (WAGA Atlanta ran Five-O on
Saturday afternoons and pre-empted Medical Center
at the time). Petticoat Junction was delayed because
Ch. 11 had a local show, Hayloft Hoedown, Saturdays
at 9:30. Governor And J.J., I believe, was delayed
due to a local public-affairs program which led into
60 Minutes alternating with CBS News Hour Tuesdays
at 10.

Likewise, WLKY, like many ABC affiliates including future
sister station WXIA (then WQXI) Atlanta, had a Friday-
night movie, explaining the delays of The Brady Bunch
and Here Come The Brides. I recall 11 Alive (although
it wasn't called that until 1976) running The Brady Bunch
at 9:30 on Friday night and Here Come The Brides on
Sunday afternoon.
