KDKA TV - seemed to be running the entire CBS Saturday lineup which seemed unusual - but most weekend stuff tended to run on network affiliates except for Sunday morning cartoons.
WTAE TV - heavily preempted Saturday morning cartoons. Worse yet wasw Johnstown and Wheeling lacked ABC stations os they also were unable to see preempted shows. When KD or 11 preempted a show at least a neighboring market was running most of these shows. But ABC viewers were out of luck. Even when WPGH ran such a show, that station did not reach neighboring markets that easily. To the north though they had 33 in Youngstown but that was only helping people north of teh city.
WIIC - pretty much running NBC's entire lineup.
WPGH - just sold to Meredith and was in the process of upgrading programming - was running ABC rejects though.
WPTT - recently signed on then - running a decent amount of westerns on Saturday - seemed to have a promising lineup to start with.
