Not listed: WUHQ 35-Edu Philadelphia; programs aired M/W/F 9:30-3, and Tu/Th 9-3

I thought the station was known as "WUHY" -- the only other WUHQs I've known of were in the Grand Rapids market: the old WUHQ channel 41 (now WOTV), and the current LPTV station.

WIBF 29-Ind Philadelphia
noon Donna Reed
12:30 Father Knows Best

Weren't Donna and FKB also ABC daytime castoffs from WFIL-TV 6?

WIBF 29-Ind Philadelphia
5:30 Where the Action is (ABC/guests Otis Redding and Tommy Roe)

Was this on ABC at 4:30 ET?

WFIL 6-ABC Philadelphia
10:00 Ben Casey

Day behind at 10:00 AM?  (ABC at 1:00 PM ET?)

Geez, if they waited that long to crash the gurney through the
swinging doors, the patient may not have survived!

(Dr. Zorba may have to go back to his previous career of writing
lengthy incorrect formulas on a blackboard.)

[bpatrick]

'Where The Action Is" did air on ABC at 4:30,
but Philadelphia was luckier than we were in
Norfolk, where WVEC aired it on a day-behind
at 8 AM!

I don't think I've seen any market--even Atlanta--
where there was so much schedule-juggling.  WSB
had nothing on KYW iin that department, and WXIA
(when it was an ABC affiliate) rarely pre-empted as
much as WFIL/WPVI, even in the '70s when it ran
news instead of "Password" at noon and the "3:30 Prize
Movie" instead of "One Life To Live" and "Love, American
Style" in the afternoon.
