There was something of an irony in this, as Aline Saarinen at the time was hostess of a local show on WNBC-TV in New York that aired after Today, For Women Only. About a year later, "Baba Wawa" assumed stewardship of the program, which was then transformed into Not for Women Only which also aired in syndication on some stations across the country.

Interesting that KTEN's schedule was primarily ABC, and they ran Dick Cavett, while KOCO-TV did not, and filled with old movies.

I'm curious as to why the title "Not for Women Only", when the show entered syndication. I think WNBC's weatherman, Dr. Frank Field, was one of the co-hosts, but still the title seemed cumbersome.
 
Not for Women Only aired on KOMO/4 during it's syndi run, sometimes early in the morning, sometimes at 11AM.

At the time, KTEN was primary ABC with a little NBC. KXII was primary NBC with a little CBS. So NBC got most of its programs on in the market. CBS got the least, at least until KXII started moving toward CBS.

The stations' signals didn't completely overlap, though. At the time, KTEN's signal did not reach Sherman-Denison at all, and they weren't on cable. KXII's tower was so far south to reach Sherman-Denison, but the signal was not strong in Ada. (I think KXII was on Ada's cable, however.)
