Were they obligated by the NFL to not begin their "postgame" show until after the late game was finished?

As far as I know, Cathay and Chinavision were separately owned until Fairchild purchased both in 1993, and the Cathay name was used right up until the Fairchild purchase. As an aside, TV Week continued to list Fairchild Vancouver as Cathay (or at least had both names side-by-side) as late as 1998, possibly even into the 2000s.

Considering the format, I take it these aren't the same shows as the American series of the same name still on the air at the time.

6:00 Three Stooges (bw)

Ha! How ironic that another independent station in the U.S. broadcasting on Channel 11 would be airing the antics of The Three Stooges on weekends. As a matter of fact, KPLR-TV Channel 11 in my home city of St. Louis was also airing the Stooges on weekends too-in my case on Saturdays late night at either 11:30pm or 12 midnight. Infact, IMHO The Three Stooges were, and still are, practically synomous with KPLR-TV. In other words, a St. Louis tradition.

By the way, honorable mention does go out to two other indies broadcasting on Channel 11 that also aired the stooges: WPIX-New York and KTVT-Dallas/Fort Worth.
