Default Obviously the 3PM Eastern Airings of Strokes are over

Haven't noticed any official notification, but I believe the 3PM hour of "Diff'rent Strokes" on BET is done.

I thought this as well but I have Diffrent Strokes on my DVR schedule and it displays that the 3 pm (ET) airings resume next Wednesday or so.

It is preempted this week 3-4pm. It returns next week 3-4pm leading into Steve Harvey from 4-5pm. So it isn't over. Looking over the July schedule, as of now, no preemptions at all for DS 9-10am or 3-4pm starting July 7.

How is the series gonna be finished again by August, when supposedly the contract to air the show ends?

The pre-emptions make no rhyme or reason.
