Schedule
[edit]- All times correspond to U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time scheduling (except for some live sports or events). Except where affiliates slot certain programs outside their network-dictated timeslots, subtract one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska, and Hawaii-Aleutian times.
- Local schedules may differ, as affiliates have the option to pre-empt or delay network programs. Such scheduling may be limited to preemptions caused by local or national breaking news or weather coverage (which may force stations to tape delay certain programs to other timeslots) and any major sports events scheduled to air in a weekday timeslot (mainly during major holidays). Stations may air shows at other times at their preference.
Monday–Friday
[edit]Notes
- Search for Tomorrow was cancelled by CBS in late 1981, and ended its run on CBS on March 26, 1982. It moved to NBC with its first episode the following Monday, March 29. It is the second instance of a daytime soap opera switching networks, with The Edge of Night first doing-so from CBS to ABC in late 1975.
- ABC had a 6PM (ET)/5PM (CT) feed for World News Tonight, depending on stations' schedule. By Spring 1982 it would be discontinued.
Saturday
[edit]In the News aired ten times during CBS' Saturday morning shows.
Ask NBC News aired after the credits of NBC's Saturday morning shows except Spider-Man and His Amazing Friends and The Bullwinkle Show.
