Mark, you didn't put a channel key in there, but the sad thing is, I might know the edition by the channels - that didn't come from an LA Metro edition, did it?

So are you saying that no L.A. station was airing the first syndie season of WoF at that time? Not doubting you by any means, but I do find that a little odd.

Wasn't "Wheel" on KCOP in LA in its first years? (As was "J!" after KCBS replaced it with Jack Klugman as "Quincy, M.E.")

I looked through the listings again, and didn't find Wheel, but I did see that KDOC aired "What's My Line" at 11:00 PM

I may still have the issue somewhere...coincidentally enough, my first LA issue was March 1-7, 1984 (with "a Streetcar named Desire" on the cover...yes folks, the truth can be told. I'm with TV Guide covers like Horan is with game shows), and if KCOP is 13, they indeed were carrying the syndicated WoF by this point. I remember seeing a different print ad for the show for every weekday night.
On the other side of the US, WoF didn't begin running in NYC on WCBS until the last week of January, IIRC. I remember watching the first episode on WCBS - Pat even greeted the viewers and mentioned WCBS. Too bad I never had a VCR goin'...

The eighties was a good decade for game shows indeed! Bad news is that I didn't have a vcr back then. I finally got one in 1986 Christmas Day!

One of the mods can definitely tell you that KCOP is 13 in LA.

The last LA issue I have before yours is Feb 4-10, 84 (winter olympics) and TJW was still at 7pm in that one, so WOF started on 13 shortly thereafter. The Kings are to be commended for their belief in the show. A syndicator today wouldn't even go forward if LA and NYC weren't on board at launch.
