"L&S&C" was the umbrella title for "L&S" in syndication while the show still aired first-run on ABC. Or was this how it was listed in the newspaper?

WTSP-10 (ABC-Tampa, now CBS)
8:00 – Happy Days
8:30 – Laverne & Shirley & Company

"L&S&C" was the umbrella title for "L&S" in syndication while the show still aired first-run on ABC. Or was this how it was listed in the newspaper?

WTSP had the rights to "L&S&C" around this time; they placed the show in Laverne & Shirley's old Tuesday night time slot (the show was already off ABC since May that year), pre-empting whatever sitcom ABC had at the time. One of WTSP's victims was "Baby Makes Five", a short-lived sitcom that starred Peter Scolari (in between "Bosom Buddies" and "Newhart"); it was only seen for, ironically, five episodes during April 1983. WTSP viewers never saw the series, as "L&S&C" was seen instead -- apparently, the station management had a sixth sense for finding hits and duds on the network, then acting accordingly.
