Don't you mean "One Life To Live" at 1 PM on 6 and 31?
"All My Children" airs at 1 PM (ET)/12 N (CT).

BTW, Ch. 6 was the last of the 12 stations Fox bought in
the New World deal of '94 to actually make the network
switch. 6 still had an affiliation contract with ABC that
didn't expire until 1996, so it wasn't until then that the
change was made; 6 went to Fox and ABC33/40 was
created.
 
Did any other stations delay Leno a half-hour or more for syndicated programming? This is probably the first market I've ever seen that happen in.

Yep. Brain fart. :)

Actually, Channel 13 delayed the Tonight Show until 11:30/11:35 from the time they picked it up from Channel 42 (and by default, 33) in '68 or '69 until '93 or '94. They did it in the beginning because they were dually affiliated with CBS and NBC until '70, and would carry network programming until 11:00, followed by the late news. After the affiliation switch, they carried off-network reruns at 10:00. It wasn't until '76 or '77 that they moved their late news to 10:00. Even then, they carried reruns after the news.
 
I don't know if KARE/11 Minneapolis/St. Paul ever delayed
Leno; I know they delayed Carson until 11 or 11:05, IIRC.
Somebody from the Twin Cities can probably answer this
better than I can.
 
Did Channel 26 carry any program at 3 PM? Or was it an hour of "Campbells" power starting at 2:30 PM?
