I don't recall WSIX/WKRN pre-empting "Land of the Giants" and "The FBI"
from 6-8 on Sunday, but I wasn't getting the Northern Alabama edition of
TV Guide (with Nashville listings) yet, either. In Birmingham, where I would
move a couple of weeks after this, then-ABC affiliate WBRC liked to delay
"Land of the Giants" and air "The Monroes" at 6, but "The FBI" was on at 7.
