Come Fall WUSA-TV 9 out of Washington DC is getting rid of Lucy Show ( and Cheers ) in favor of...

Crossing Over with John Edward.

According to what I heard on the radio WUSA lost between 30-40 percent of its viewers when they switched from talk shows to Lucy & Cheers.

Well at least there is Hallmark Channel and Nick&Nite

Unfortunately, "The Lucy Show" is just not a big enough draw to be on a major network affiliate. I'm surprised WUSA picked it up at all. Anyone know if WUSA ran the B&W episodes, BTW? And are they using the CBS daytime/N@N prints (indentifiable by the almost exclusive use of the season 4 "kaleidescope" opening on all episodes)?
