The Ricki Lake Show (2012)

J

JayR

Which stations are airing The Ricki Lake Show in your market?

In the Fort Myers/Naples market: WCXW TV6.
 
Judging from what I found on kljb.com, I think she might be on Fox 18 and/or The Quad Cities' CW this fall...
 
So far, these stations have cleared Ricki based on the recent announcements:

WPIX/New York
KTTV/Los Angeles
WFLD/Chicago
WFXT/Boston
KPRC/Houston
WNUV/Baltimore
WITI/Milwaukee
WPCW/Pittsburgh
KCPQ/Seattle
KTXL/Sacramento
WXIX/Cincinnati
KDAF Dallas
WTIC/Hartford
WKEF/Dayton
WXLV/Greensboro
WXIN & WTTV/Indianapolis
WPMT/Harrisburg
WXMI/Grand Rapids
KATU/Portland
 
WEAR-TV in the designated market area of Mobile, Alabama-Pensacola, Florida, according to an advertisement they broadcast recently. The original "Ricki Lake Show" was broadcast by WJTC-TV and WPMI-TV in the same broadcast area (they shared the local broadcast rights to the program, since Clear Channel Communications used to operate both stations).
 
What I think is weird is that I think KSTW/11 in Seattle showed Ricki Lake around 2000, but now KCPQ/13 has the rights to the new revival. ???

Why is that weird? They're two entirely different shows, separated from each other by eight years. Of course the 2012 show is going to be on different channels in many markets from the 1993-2004 series.
 
Got it! Thank you for letting me know 20th Television was owning the new version.

With Fox Chicago having the Chicago rights to the Ricki Lake's new talk show, I won't be surprised if reruns of her show appear on sister station, WPWR-TV, who carried her original show, & was WFLD's sister station at the time the show was cancelled. The reason I say this, is because some syndicated programs that air on WFLD, sometimes get shown again on WPWR-TV in the different timeslot.
 
The big question is will people who watched her first show flock to the new version, since she is going the "Oprah" route? Having seen the promos, chances are that they will. But at this rate she also has "Katie", "Jeff Probst", "Steve Harvey" and even "Anderson" to deal with. Either way I expect her comeback to be good despite the competition.
 
Speaking of Steve Harvey, the talk show is being carried weekdays on KSTW CW11 this fall. Wonder if it will be placed next to the double-run of Harvey's Family Feud? "The Two Hours of Harvey, Weekday Mornings!" :D

The show's website gas yet to publish a list of stations and markets...making me wonder if they have all the markets signed up that they'll need to make a fall launch viable.

They probably won't list the stations until late July or early August, possibly to give stations time to schedule Lake. It should be noted that most of these stations are eyeing afternoon slots for the show.
 
I see that KONG has Jeff Probst. I have a feeling Katie Couric's new show won't be on KOMO [ABC]. There's NO way they are going to get rid of The Doctors, Live with Kelly and you-fill-in-the-blank, Dr. Oz or their First News at 4 to put a talk show on. The last syndicated show at 4PM on 4 I remember was the Jane Pauley Show [2004].

Speaking of KSTW, it looks like Steve (whose show will debut September 4th, 2012) is about to get paired up with "Maury's" British protege "Trisha" when she debuts September 17th (2012). This should make for interesting Daytime TV in Seattle.
