And now, some notes...

1: I think that at some point, NBC was getting (or starting to get) fed up with Detroit's pre-empting network programming in favor of Tigers baseball coverage. For many years, NBC has been very strict on their non-O&Os regarding nationally-televised programming. For a recent incident, you only have to think about WHDH's original decision to pre-empt Leno's forthcoming prime time show in favor of a 10:00 PM newscast. That didn't sit well with the network and the station did give in and will be carrying the show after all. (And Leno is from Massachusetts.)

2: I find it odd that in a market like Bangor, Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! aren't on the same station (however, they are, as far as I know, by contract NOT allowed to compete against each other, much like Oprah and Dr. Phil today).
 
Believe it or not, another city where "Wheel" and "Jeopardy" aired on different stations... New York! For a long time, mostly in the 80's, "Jeopardy" would air on WABC/7 at 7 PM, "Wheel" at 7:30 PM on WCBS/2. Today, both shows air in their same time slots, both on WABC/7. I don't recall what led up to WCBS/2 no longer airing the show, though... contract, maybe?

All I know is, Bangor, Maine must be a weird market. And WLBZ is an odd station. Not only do their air all of their soaps in the morning, but it looks like they were one of the very, very few "Big Three" affiliates to air "Perfect Strangers" reruns. Why any station would want to air that show, is beyond me.
