They even have a show page for it! http://www.wciu.com/shows_differentStrokes.asp

WCIU is the only local channel airing the show in the entire U.S.! Anyone in Chicago?

Don't take this the wrong way because this is just my opinion, but i don't see the point in posting news about local stations airing certain shows because everyone is not able to see it. I thought you mainly posted info about National Cable Netwtorks instead of local stations.

This is rare. Diff'rent Strokes doesn't air anywhere else.

ya,i've been watching it every weekday. I was surprised that they were showing it because no other station was.

The last time Diff'rent Strokes aired in my state I remeber watching Diff'rent Strokes was on WVUE-TV-Channel-8 at 3:30 pm.

I'm not sure when it last aired here in Philly, but indeed know that WPHL WB-17 aired it weekdays at 5PM in the late 1980s/early 1990s. After that came on, FOL would air too. Hopefully N@N or TVL will pick it up! Or maybe even TNN. I haven't seen it that many times, but I've seen FOL a lot...

Yeah I remember that, i used to watch it on WPHL-TV back in the late 80's. It still seemed like the last two seasons are never showed.
