Swans Crossing affiliates - List them here!

[johnnya2k6]

This fall, Sarah Michelle Gellar returns to our lives after a few years' hiatus with "Ringer" on The CW; it will be her first TV series since "Buffy The Vampire Slayer", which ran for a very happy seven seasons on The WB and later UPN. So technically...SHE'S COMING BACK HOME!!!!

But some of you remember Sarah's first major TV gig, the teen soap opera "Swans Crossing" which ran for a very happy...well, 13 weeks in syndication in 1992. Based on the Morton Downey Jr. Show affiliates thread, how about running down the stations that aired Swans Crossing? I'll start...

Anchorage--KTBY
Fairbanks--KFXF (they first ran it at 7:00 pm opposite Wheel Of Fortune on KTVF, but thankfully moved it to a more modest 2:30 pm)
Denver--KDVR

These are all I can remember at the moment.

...from previous schedules posted on this board:

Tampa-St. Petersburg: WFTS/28
Orlando: WOFL/35
Milwaukee: WCGV/24
Atlanta: WATL/36
Chattanooga: WDSI/61
St. Louis: KDNL/30
Indianapolis: WTTV/4
Louisville: WDRB/41
Danville, KY: WDKY/56
Johnstown, PA: WWCP/8
Pittsburgh: WPTT/22
Lansing, MI: WSYM/47
Flint, MI: WSMH/66
San Diego: KUSI/51

...looks like, aside from KUSI, WPTT and WTTV, which were all indies at the time, the show generally popped up on Fox affiliates...

I think another indie could be added to the list: Channel 31 KRBK in Sacramento.

 

[PDXREXX]

in Seattle KSTW Aired it as i recall at 2:30pm

the show generally popped up on Fox affiliates...

Including KTTV (Los Angeles), KTVU (San Francisco), WFLD (Chicago), WFXT (Boston), and I think then-Fox station WNOL (New Orleans), but not in New York (Swans there aired on WPIX, as this promo confirms).

As for Canada? I'm certain SC aired on some independent stations there.

It used to air on then-independent KUTP-45 in Phoenix. I remember that they scheduled it at 5pm in late summer 1992, then moved it to mid-afternoon until the end of its run.

You wouldn't happen to know which Canadian stations aired SC, do you know?

I guess the stations made sure not to run Swans Crossing at 3:00 or 4:00 pm, because that was when you-know-who dominated those time slots.

CORRECTION: In New York, Swans aired on WWOR (as evidenced by this promo)before it moved to WPIX.

Peoria/Bloomington, IL: WYZZ-43 (Fox)--Swan's Crossing aired at 8:30AM during summer 1992 only IIRC (I don't recall it before or after that summer--other than school in session ;D ;D ;D)

Quad Cities (Davenport, IA/Rock Island-Moline, IL): KLJB-18 (Fox) aired SC at 2PM at least during fall 1992 only (I am certain SC went uncleared in the QCs before that time, but I don't recall if it survived into 1993 on KLJB).

Also another question considering the many smaller markets that were still "Un-Foxed" at this time (back when it was preposterous to even comprehend that they would be airing the NFL--outside of syndicated preseason games ;D ;D ;D): Did "Swan's Crossing" ever get cleared by a "Big 3" affiliate and run, say, after the network soaps had ended for the day?

When did Swan's Crossing move to KUSI? It premiered on KNSD 39 in the early hours of June 30 at 2:20am

 

[Radiofreewill]

Add WUPW/Toledo to the list. IIRC, it was on at 2:30pm.
