You can program anything you like as long as it's FCC approved. What do you air?

bgva · 03-21-2016, 11:39 PM

I'm gonna need some time on this one. I'm going to keep it generic, in other words, not giving titles of shows. Instead, it would be a revolving lineup, like what MeTV and Antenna TV do. Shows that stay the same all year have an (*) next to it.

6-7 am: religious*
7-8 am: cartoons
8-9 am: news/talk*
9-11 am: game show reruns (I'm thinking each day represents a different decade)
11-12 noon: first-run game shows*
Noon-1 pm: talk/lifestyle*
1-2 pm: first-run soap opera*
2-3 pm: first-run (young adult) soap opera*
3-6 pm: sitcom reruns (something from the '90s/2000s; each hour is two episodes)
6-6:30 pm: news*
6:30-7 pm: national news (think McNeir-Lehrer Hour)
7-7:30 pm: celebrity tabloid*
7:30-8 pm: first-run game show*
8-10 pm: movie
10-12 midnight: classic sitcoms (70s-80s)
Midnight-1 am: Twilight Zone* (the only show I have a specific spot for
1-3 am: Insomniac Theater
3 am: SIGN OFF

I'll try and do weekends later, but it'll probably revolve around a theme block, like MeTV's "Catch Me if You Can" detective shows

mets82 · 03-22-2016, 12:48 AM

I would show old classic cartoons (esp.on Saturday morning) Old classic game shows, old soap operas, classic old TV shows that are more rare and not shown on the other oldies TV stations all the time, Good old movies from the 1950's through the 1980's !!

MrCleveland · 03-22-2016, 01:52 PM

Right now, I'd like to have an all cartoon station, what Boomerang and Toon Disney used to be.
