--If you're wondering why "MacGyver" comes on Sunday, remember that KOMO Seattle was still tape delaying Monday Night Football at this time until 7pm. So they passed up the usual West Coast practice of airing "MacGyver" right after football; don't know if they stuck to that in later years.
--The Seahawks game started at 10pm, but the pregame didn't start until 4pm? Odd.
--Finally, does anyone about the listing for "Nanny" at 7pm? Obviously, the Fran Drescher sitcom didn't start until years later, and the names don't match up with "Nanny and the Professor". I wonder what show it refers to.
 
Nanny may be a British show of some kind.
Seahawks game was on at 10AM - east coast away game. The Postgame may have been prerecorded to air after American Graffiti.
Yes, KOMO still thought that 6:00PM news was better than airing MNF live. Unlike KAPP-35, which aired MNF right at 6PM.
I'm still wondering if Adventure BC was a CBUT-only program, or if it was relayed to the other CBC affiliates. I now know that this was CBC North's feed, and not channel 2 Vancouver...

-crainbebo
 
And by the way, CBC was carrying the Emmy Awards LIVE on the West Coast, while NBC aired it on taped delay out there! What a shock!
