Three months earlier, NBC, CBS and ABC did some jostling around with their kidvid line-ups. On ABC, The Flintstone Kids replaced the ill-fated reboot of Beany & Cecil (helmed by John Kricfalusi); on NBC, Punky Brewster and The New Archies (later Fat Albert) replaced 2 Hip 4 TV (a live-action pre-teen show which flopped horribly), while on CBS Teen Wolf replaced their own live-action preteen show called Flip!.
 
No Jeopardy!, I see. I guess KSDK never acquired the Saturday run of it. They still don't air it on Saturdays (or Sundays) to this day. CST tends to be more flaky about J!'s Saturday run given its typical daytime slotting rather than pairing it with Wheel of Fortune. WLS Chicago (ABC) airs it Saturdays at 6:00 before WOF since they don't have 6:00 news on Saturdays. Other markets tend to air J! Weekend in overnight slots or on Sunday afternoons or evenings, but WOF Weekend is pretty much just Saturdays at its weekday time slot.
