Interesting to see an early digital cable lineup on here. I think this is the first one of those I've seen. I noticed there's quite a few channels missing, such as what was then known as Noggin, and Nick GaS. Was InterMedia Lexington an independent cable operator at the time, or a competitor? If they were independent, I doubt they're still around. What is the cable provider there now?
 
WVAH 11-Fox/UPN
8:00 Get Real (as listed, what's the story here?)


UPN special, maybe?

A quick check on Wikipedia lists it as a Fox program, but it's awful funny that Fox 11 in Charleston has it listed, but the Cincy, Louisville, and Lexington stations are running a That 70s Show doubleheader, which leads me to wonder it there's a typo here and Fox 11 actually ran the That 70s Show doubleheader instead...
 
Bonus info, there was an ad for InterMedia Lexington in that week's TV Book, so here's a look at the September 1999 cable selection in Lexington:

Analog
2 WKYT-CBS

Soon after this WKYT moved to Channel 9 on cable. WKYT had issues being on Channel 2 due to all the old coax and bad splits around town. Low band VHF channels were full of noise so WKYT had issues while the other broadcast channels were on high band VHF that were noise free or less noisy so they requested to move.
