Plus, doesn't it seem a little wierd to tape-delay a news broadcast -- and in some cases by many hours (for those affiliates that are waiting to carry Hour 4 in the early afternoon)?

You must live in the EAST. Welcome to the tape-delayed world of the Pacific and Mountain time zones! ::)

I wonder how the Hawaii affiliate is going to carry it. After all, the news is probably going to be 8 hours old by then. ::)

11:00 Jeopardy
11:30 Millionaire

12:30 Days Of Our Lives

Now what the hell sense does that make airing Today at 1:30 in the afternoon?
 
WMC 5 in Memphis and WPSD 6 in Paducah, KY are both carrying the full 4 hours straight through from 7 to 11 AM.

WSMV 4 in Nashville is carrying the first 3 hours from 7 to 10 AM with The 700 Club from 10 to 11, and the 4th hour from 11 AM to Noon.

Correction to an earlier posting: WNCN/17 Raleigh
is airing "Daytime" at noon. However, three NBC
affiliates in my part of the country: WNCN, WXII/12
Winston-Salem, and WSLS/10 Roanoke, VA, are not
carrying the fourth hour of "Today." Channel 12 is
sticking with Regis at 10, while Channel 10 is sticking
with "The 700 Club." I think 17 is sticking with Ellen
DeGeneres.

That information came from titantv.com (now I know
why so many of you prefer zap2it). Yesterday's
Greensboro News & Record TV Week shows WXII running Today
from 7 to 9, Regis from 9 to 10, then the last two hours
of Today from 10 to 12. They're also losing Access Hollywood,
which had been airing at 11:30 AM, to WGHP/Fox8, which will
carry it at 6:30, followed by TMZ at 7.

KPRC-Houston, TX Daytime Schedule:
5-7AM Local 2 News Daybreak
7-11AM The Today Show
11:00 AM Local 2 News Midday
12 Noon Ellen
1:00 PM Days of Our Lives
2:00 PM Rachael Ray (Replacing the Canceled Soap, "Passions")
3:00 PM Dr. Phil
4:00 PM Local 2 News-First@4
4:30 PM Extra

At least KPRC-TV is adapting its schedule to the network's instead of theirs this time around unlike sister WDIV. At least I saw the last 3 years of Passions on KPRC--it's better than nothing.

4 hours is too much. It's competing with The Price is Right and created a whole morning of news. When it expanded to 09:00, it provided a network show to watch instead of those syndicated or station-originated shows like Great Day Houston on KHOU and it didn't conflict with The Price is Right. After all, the alternative is The View.:yuck: They should have the Debra Duncan show from Houston instead and maybe put it over the "Belo" (Texas) network at 09:00.
 
They should have the Debra Duncan show from Houston instead and maybe put it over the Belo Stations network at 09:00.

KTRK (abc13) in Houston used to have The Debra Duncan Show, but plans to go syndicated went belly up, and Deb now Co-anchors 11 News This Morning with Ron Trevino.

How is your affiliate handling the 4th hour of today?

Ours is running TODAY 7-9am ET -- then breaking for Regis -- then hour 3 & 4 will run from 10am-Noon ET.

They had been running all 3 hours of TODAY from 7-10am -- then Regis at 10am ET.

It's almost as it they're taking a step backwards...

Here is the daytime lineup in Pittsburgh, PA for WPXI-11:
5-7am: Channel 11 News This Morning
7-10am: TODAY Show
10-11am: Ellen DeGeneres
11-Noon: Montel Williams
Noon-12:30pm Channel 11 News @ Noon
12:30-1pm: Family Feud
1-1:30pm: Millionaire
1:30-2pm: Merv Griffin's Crosswords (New!)
2-3pm: TODAY Show (4th Hour!)
3-4pm: Days of our Lives
4-5pm: Judge Judy (2 episodes)
5-6:30pm: Channel 11 News
6:30-7pm: NBC Nightly News
7-7:30pm: Jeopardy!
7:30-8pm: Wheel of Fortune


This is somewhat interesting as I found out that the 4th hour of "TODAY" is taped, and affiliates across the country air it whenever.

  • 4:30: Early Today
