Hard to believe how much of the CBS daytime lineup WHIO pre-empted:
"The Big Payoff," "The Verdict Is Yours," "The Brighter Day," "The Secret
Storm," and (especially) "The Edge Of Night," which had vaulted to near the
top of the ratings almost from the day it started in 1956. "The Brighter Day"
was CBS's lowest-rated soap, and a move to late morning eventually killed it
in 1962; "The Big Payoff" was canceled after CBS made a post-scandal rule
limiting prize winnings to $1000. But, coupled with ABC's combo of "Who Do
You Trust?" and "American Bandstand," NBC would find it tough sledding in
late afternoons until its parlay of "Another World, "You Don't Say!" and the
original "Match Game" in the mid-'60s.

BTW, September 10 marks the anniversary of the beginning of the end of
"Who Do You Trust?". That's the day in 1962 that Woody Woodbury replaced
Johnny Carson. I've said this numerous times, I know, but someone once said
that Johnny could make a slightly off-color remark perfectly acceptable; Woody
could say "hello" and make it sound like a proposition. Also, there was the problem
of Woody's dressed-to-go-fishing attire, which he never explained. Woody emceed
the show for just over fifteen months, until December 27, 1963.
