What will replace Oprah in big Texas markets?

I

intx

All the stations are playing coy, not wanting to tip off the competition ... but what do you think will materialize in the 4p slot next year? My (somewhat educated) guesses:

KVUE/Austin: Move Ellen from 9a to 4p
KSAT/San Antonio: News or move Dr. Phil from 3p to 4p
WFAA/Dallas: News (would be the market's 3rd newscast in that time slot) or try GMT in that slot
KHOU/Houston: News (would be the market's 3rd newscast in that time slot), try Great Day in that slot, move The Doctors from 3p to 4p or move Jeopardy back to daytime

Dr Oz moves to 4 on WFAA per an item in Ed Bark's blog several weeks ago...

Isn't Dr. Oz slated to be the replacement for the Oprah Show anyway.
 
Not necessarily. In many markets, the 2 air on different stations. It will def. be a top choice to replace Oprah for stations that either already have the rights or can grab them from someone else, like KABC did in LA.
