The show WKFT ran at 8am wasn't He-Man and the Masters of the Universe, but its sequel series The New Adventures of He-Man.
 
Why is WYED airing a Chicago/Baltimore baseball game? Neither team is anywhere near the Carolinas.
Notice a ton of old or obscure shows for a large market in 1991. Has the Raleigh market always been a good market for older shows? And who knew "Bridget Loves Bernie" got syndicated?
Did the "Andy Griffith" shows include the color episodes? I remember KIMA Yakima (my hometown station) airing them, but now the B&W seem to be the only ones aired.

Yeah, they had the color episodes too. I've noticed that the Sundance Channel carries TAGS but no color episodes, MeTV only airs the color episodes for the Month of Mayberry special and I think there might have been a Christmas episode in color that usually gets aired at the appropriate time of the season.
