I just wanted to ask this:
Considering the bad reputation that AfterMASH always got, why couldn't CBS have given Newhart the 9:00 PM timeslot for the 1983-84 season with AfterMASH as its lead-out? If that happened, Kate & Allie would have been given the 9:30 PM timeslot once AfterMASH wrapped its first season in March of 1984. It wasn't until the fall of 1986 that Newhart was slotted at 9:00 PM.
