What's on TV? Monday, August 5, 1968

Well, here we are in Big Sky Country, and if last week was challenging, what with part of Indiana in one time zone and part in another, take a look at this: three states, two time zones, and eight stations with multiple affiliations. And, back in these days, conventions meet in both the afternoon and the evening.

There's something else interesting about how network convention coverage fits into the broadcasting schedule. Because the conventions are carried live, they come not at the end of the broadcast day—when prime time is running into late night—but in late afternoon, into the heart of prime time, leaving at least an hour or so for normal programming. So after convention coverage ends for the time, then it's time for Felony Squad, or That Girl, or Star Trek.

Oh, and one more thing: what with all the multiple affiliations, you're apt to see shows on channels you'd least expect. How else to explain KFBB, which has Captain Kangaroo and As the World Turns in the morning, Star Trek in the evening, and an NBC News Special followed by Joey Bishop in late night? You've got to love it.
