[Joseph_Gallant]

Seven years ago, Pax/Ion stations generally broadcast 19 hours of paid programming a day and just five hours of non-infomercial programming per day.

In fact, I believe Pax/Ion was on the verge of going out of business around 2006.

Today, Ion has non-paid programming for sixteen hours a day weekdays, 14 hours a day on weekends. I suspect the network's finances are much healthier if they have been able to eliminate 11 hours of infomercials a day during the week and 9 hours of infomercials a day on weekends.

Thanks for the post, Mike. Just curious. Did you accidentally miss listing KNTV 11 San Jose, the Bay Area NBC station? Or did this cable system just not include them? All the other major SF stations are included, even if they duplicate Sacramento network affiliates. It can't be that San Jose is too far from Fairfield & Vacaville. They include Channel 36 from San Jose, why not 11?

Or maybe the never changed their channel line up from when 11 was still ABC? Maybe they thought, why include THREE ABC stations when 7 KGO-TV SF and 10 KXTV Sacramento are enough? So when 11 eventually became the sole NBC outlet for the Bay Area, Comcast didn't bother to make any changes.

No I didn't because it just simply wasn't listed in their lineup (Although they did one time in the late 70's-Early 80's), but however I did managed to see what KNTV's schedule was like from that same year, so here it is:

As you can see, KBWB didn't start doing newscasts with KGO-TV until December of that year, so they had "Charlie's Angels" in the 9pm slot for the beginning of fall until it premiered.

Really interesting to see "The Brady Bunch" at 5PM on a network station at this time. By then Brady Bunch was on cable and now on subchannels! Still interesting to see, even if it's 2006 - all the syndicated programming that's gone now. Greg Behrendent lasted one season (wasn't it supposed to compete with Maury etc?) - "Still Standing" reruns are gone from broadcast TV, Christina's Court is all but a memory, and Geraldo at Large is also all but a memory.
