Which syndicated reruns or shows are saying "Sayonara" in the fall?

C

crainbebo

I haven't seen anything other than Katie and Bethenny being cancelled. Looks like ABC stations will have to try to find something else to replace Katie Couric's show.

What reruns or other first-run shows are done in September? I wonder about Everybody Loves Raymond. Been on for years and it's been cancelled since 2005. Will it go all cable next year?

The ABC O&Os that already don't carry The Rachael Ray Show will have her as Katie Couric's replacement in the fall. My local ABC station, KABC, also faced another scheduling problem, as they were not only going to lose Katie, but also Dr. Oz as well (his show is moving back to Fox's KTTV). KABC will air a second run of Jeopardy!, followed by Who Wants to be a Millionaire (currently on KNBC) in one of those hours between 2 and 4pm local time.
 
Under that Raymond logic, Seinfeld would have been gone from locals long ago.

ELR, as well as other off-nets that have been in syndication for at least five years, have really gone down in ratings this season, however. I can't remember if CBS is trying to sell a new cycle.

Considering there are several sitcoms coming into syndication this fall (Parks & Rec, Mike & Molly, Raising Hope, Hot in Cleveland, Anger Management, plus others) I'm sure several will bite the dust. I'm guessing Til Death, Always Sunny in Philly, Rules of Engagement and at least one of Tyler Perry's.
 
Probably Meet the Browns if Tyler Perry is going. House of Payne has more seasons - and I wonder how the ratings are with African-American households? Oddly, Seattle does not have a station with Tyler Perry shows, or Are We There Yet?

I suppose Til Death will go sooner or later. No one really knows that show anymore. It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia is still running new episodes on FXX. It will probably keep going for a while. Oddly, even thought it's the last season, no one is offering Grey's Anatomy for weekends anymore. Maybe they should start doing that.

As far as other syndication sayonaras: Judge Alex, as well as Gloria Allred's show from the Byron Allen Courtroom Series Factory. (But a replacement with a different name and judge are is coming in the fall.)
 
Yep - it's Mablean Ephraim (ex-Divorce Court 1999 to 2006). Fake as always - what do you expect from Byron Allen "Entertainment Studios"? I suppose America's Court will continue to run. I remember it never aired in Seattle but aired here in Yakima on KIMA for a season right before TPIR! Double run of fake courtroom programming to boot!

There's two gone. I'm shocked "The Test" wasn't cancelled earlier. It's a complete ripoff of Maury, just with a younger dude (Kirk Fox). Now get rid of Jerry Springer and I will be VERY satisfied. I'd rather see stations put on an old 1970s movie in the afternoon rather than a double run of "JERRY! JERRY! JERRY!"
Trisha Goddard guest hosted on Maury once in a while but it seems she did not do really well in syndication. Both Seattle and Yakima's affiliates (KSTW 11 and CW KIMA-DT2) have her on at that horrible 3:00AM slot. Knew it wouldn't be long with that.
Maury's already in his mid 70s, how long will he last? Until he's 90?
I never saw this "Serch" show. He seemed to be a trial run for a few days, just like Mike Huckabee and his trial talk show run in 2010.

-crainbebo
 
Our Fox/CW combo's owner dropped all of the NBCU "conflict shows," except Trisha, at the beginning of the season and no one's picked them up. Can't say I miss them. Some day someone will realize Maury's long in the tooth (hell, his dad lived and worked well into his 90s), but it hasn't hurt him yet.
 
oh no. There's 5 shows that are gone in Minneapolis (I wont include Katie)

what is CW23 gonna do that they dont have Test or Gloria?
What is Fox & My gonna do with no Bethenny, Trisha or Alex?

Maybe WFTC29 can go back to a true Indy (doubt it since its O&O with Fox) but its just crazy how many shows are either run on both or multiple times
Wendy...both channels
Bethenny...twice on Fox9 (whats on at 3 today is on at 10AM tomorrow)
Judy...both..new on Fox9 and I think delayed a week on My29
Divorce Court...2 1 hour blocks (11-noon and 1-2)

I could see Fox filling it with "TMZ Sports"...after all they have TMZ Live and TMZ is on FOUR times a day (6:30p, 11:05p, 3:30a and noon)
 
WJZY will lose Gloria Allred and Trisha Goddard. They will be picking up The Real along with Dr. Oz and Right This Minute from WSOC. (Right this Minute could actually be on WMYT). I could see WJZY handing off Karen Mills to WMYT if it's still on next year.

I could see WSOC replacing Right This Minute at 12:30 with Access Hollywood. I think they're supposed to get Wendy Williams from WAXN and I think they'll get Meredith Viera's new show (seems to make the most sense since Katie and Dr. Oz will be gone from their schedule in the fall).

WAXN will lose Judge Alex and The Test along with their run of Dr. Oz.

WCCB will lose Bethanny. They have recently shuffled their daytime talk show lineup to get Bethanny away from 4:00.

What market are you in?
 
Here in Atlanta, the only thing I know is that Dr. Oz will be moving from 2:00 pm on WAGA to 3:00 on WSB (replacing Katie Couric; wish Channel 2 took Ellen DeGeneres away from WXIA instead (like they did with ABC in 1980), as it would be a powerful lead-in to their news) with Access Hollywood Live possibly filling that vacant time slot.

As for 11:00 am post-Bethenny (also on WAGA)? That remains unknown...for now.

I'm not sure (or don't even care) about what Fairbanks and/or Anchorage have up their sleeves.
 
MY TV 9 WCTX 59.1 (LIN-TV soon to be Media General) in New Haven, CT will have 2 1/2 hours to fill. They air Tricia Goddard at 9AM, Betheny at 11AM, and Judge Alex at 1PM. I supposed they could air an extra episode of Divorce Court. Divorce Court hasn't been double run in the market since it moved over from Tribune's WCCT-TV 20 several years ago. And maybe MY TV 9 can pick up TMZ Live. They air the regular TMZ show at 11PM.

WCTX's sister station NEWS 8 WTNH (ABC) will lose Katie in the 3PM time slot. I suppose they'll pick up The Merideth Viera Show.

Tribune's WCCT-TV 20 (CW) will lose The Test in the 2PM-3PM time slot. They should move The Middle to an overnight death slot like sister station Channel 50 in Washington DC did and go back to Double Running The Simpsons and Family Guy in the 5PM-7PM time slot.

And is Marie Osmond's new show starting this fall or The Fall of 2015? I heard it's supposed to be in syndication this time as opposed to running on Hallmark Channel.
 
The CW Plus (KIMA DT2) in Yakima will have the awful graveyard slot of 3:00am to fill up, ditto KSTW 11 in Seattle (due to Trisha Goddard being cancelled). It will probably be paid programming due to the hours.
KIMA also has to fill up the 9:00AM hour due to losing The Test, KNDO has to fill up 2:00PM (probably with Meredith Vieira?) due to Katie's cancellation, and KCYU will lose the double run of Judge Alex which airs at 1:00PM weekdays.

I was under the impression that WSOC does an hour of news at noon, like sister station WSB. I keep wondering why Ch. 9 doesn't do a 4 PM newscast. WCNC ought to follow the lead of its Atlanta sister, WXIA, and pick up Rachael Ray, Dr. Phil, and Ellen.

WSOC's noon news used to be an hour, starting the very day ABC gave 12:30-1 to affiliates, until about a year ago. 12:30-1 was just a repeat of 12-12:30 so they deemed it redundant. They do have hour-long news if there's a big story.

And yes I am surprised they haven't started a 4 like their sister WSB. Maybe they will in the fall when Dr. Oz moves to WJZY. But they have already put Dr. Phil at 4.

It was already mentioned that Katie is leaving this fall. For WLS-TV, this is the best thing to happen for them, as corporate forced them to move Inside Edition & Jeopardy out of the 3 & 3:30 timeslots, so Katie could be put on in that timeslot. Someone mentioned that Rachel Ray would go in that timeslot on the ABC O&O stations that will pick up the show. I hear WLS-TV will move Inside Edition & Jeopardy back in the 3 & 3:30pm timeslots (Inside Edition was on at 3pm starting in 1988, while Jeopardy was on at 3:30pm starting in 1983, until 2012) & Rachel Ray might be put on in the 2pm slot. For WGN-TV, losing Rachel Ray isn't good news, as WLS-TV outbidded WGN-TV for Live with Kelly & Michael last summer, & now, WLS-TV took Rachel Ray from them as well. Except for Rachel Ray from 10 - 11am, WGN-TV has news on from 4am - 1pm, & could be news for the entire morning, if they're too cheap to get another show to replace Rachel Ray.

With Trisha being cancelled, I would hope that WCIU 26.1 doesn't go back to 2 hour Jerry Springer marathon (9 & 11am).
 
Anybody know who's picking up "Hot Bench," to which Judge Judy owns the American rights (she saw it on a trip to the UK last summer)? The format has three judges instead of one deciding the cases.
