Although I live in Vancouver, Canada, I receive WPIX (New York) via cable, and I just noticed on the TV listings that The Cosby Show is no longer on at 1AM(4AM EST). PIX replaced their 4AM News with Cosby and The Jeffersons. The Jeffersons is still on though. I read that TVLAND (which I don't get) cancelled their Cosby Marathon set for Thanksgiving.

:mad:

If WPIX wants to go retro return "The Abbott & Costello Show" at 4:30AM where it ran for years till approx 1983.....then they would sign off, andreturn seconds later.....I actually have a few episodes of "A&C" with all the commercials as "11 Alive" etc from the airings.....

All night WPIX Schedule before local independents were ruined:

2:00AM Emergency
3:00AM Movie (Usually "Blondie" movie series, Recorded 4 of those too with commercials for "Dance Fever", "Solid Gold" and all the best the indies had to offer in the last gasp of real local TV stations!
4:30AM The Abbott & Costello Show
4:59AM Sign Off with primitive opening crawl announcement about transmitter on World Trade Center and their address for viewer comments!
5:00AM Sign On!

Probably because of all the crap going on with Bill Cosby and these women he supposedly raped.

So tell me, if any of your location station used to air The Cosby Show, which show they're showing in a time-slot where The Cosby Show used to be and what station?

City, State - Local station - Timeslot - Program replaced The Cosby Show.
