The ABC Monday night baseball game this week was most likely Yankees vs Orioles, with Al Michaels and Bob Uecker; Yankees won 8-2. The other game was Royals-Rangers, with Keith Jackson, Don Drysdale, and Howard Cosell(KC won 8-6).

Only other time I've seen a station schedule that show at that time in WTXX/20 in Hartford circa 1993 - during the "limbo" years.

...and CTV ran The Flintstones at Noon (at least in Toronto, Ottawa, and Montreal) for years. The series was originally produced as an animated sitcom, and these time slots reflect that.

And, if memory serves me right, this was the day that NBC shuffled its game show lineup, with Card Sharks and the new version of High Rollers replacing Knockout and To Say the Least.

In the case of CTV's "Flintstones", I thought it was because kids were home for lunch at the time -- many stations in larger US cities programmed children's programming at 12 Noon (such as "Bozo" on WGN-TV).

On a side note, TQS (now "V") carried the Quebecois "Flintstones" ("Les Pierrefeu") for many years at 12 Noon. I believe most TVA stations did the same at one point.

 

[harrisburgpatv]

I could almost swear I saw in an old Buffalo-area TV Guide from 1994, Channel 2 (NBC) was airing Flintstones at noon. After reading this thread, it all seems to make sense...

And I seem to recall, that SRC aired Les Pierrafeu originally- they now run on Teletoon Retro's French service. IIRC in the mid to late 70s, ATV, my regional CTV affiliate, used to run it as a lead-in to the 5:30pm news...ATV also aired cartoons/kids' shows in the noon-1pm hour for many years, airing local news at 1pm (no doubt to repatriate viewers from the newscasts on WLBZ and later WDIV, WJBK, and WXYZ ;D).

 

[Gregg]

I've always found it interesting that CFCF-TV and the Ottawa and Toronto CTV stations ran Flintstones at Noon for many years. I think that when they started doing a midday newscast, they delayed it to 12:30 so they could keep the noon airing of The Flintstones.

And why did TQS run Les Pierrefeu (you don't pluralize the family name in French, the plural article takes care of that, so it's also Les Simpson) at noon too? Because CFCF owned TQS.

I also note the CBC stations run The Friendly Giant at 8:45am. I always thought it ran later, just before Mr. Dressup. They were the two longest-running kids shows on CBC.

Another note... Channel 5 in Quebec City was a valiant effort to run an English-language station in such a French market. The owners of TVA Channel 4 tried to have a locally programmed English station in the market. It was mostly shows from CBMT but with local commercials, some syndicated programs and some local news. But there just wasn't enough advertising. Today it's simply a satellite of CBMT. I would imagine the CBC now owns it.

I would imagine the CBC now owns it.

Or rather, "owned it" -- in 1997, CKMI-TV channel 5 was acquired by Global, in which they relocated that channel to channel 20, while opening repeaters in Sherbrooke (channel 11) and Montreal (channel 46). Channel 5 in Quebec City was then given to the CBC, which became a repeater of CBMT. However, it closed down last August along with all other CBC and Radio-Canada repeaters, due to budget cuts.

I also note the CBC stations run The Friendly Giant at 8:45am. I always thought it ran later, just before Mr. Dressup. They were the two longest-running kids shows on CBC.

I stopped watching both shows by then I was 13. However, Friendly Giant did air before Dressup when I was a child. I see that particular CBC stations also ran a French language kids show and Davey & Goliath, something my CBC station (CBUT) never did, so that might explain the time shift.

Montreal cable kept WMTW for years fearing ch 22 in Vermont would go dark
