This is probably the last year I'll be doing this. With the switch to digital coming next August 31, I won't be able to pull out the old analog TV with antenna on Labour Day to check out what changes CKWS and CHEX have made. Besides, with the two stations becoming more homogenized and adding more Cbc programming every year, monitoring their new schedules is frankly becoming less fun.
At 7:00 a.m., the two stations pick up a feed from CBCNN, whereas the main Cbc stations have Cbc 4 Kids. This is a good move on CKWS and CHEX's part. Kids shouldn't watch TV when they first get up in the morning.
From 8:00 a.m.-2:00 p.m., there is really no change from last season:
8:00: infomercials
8:30: Life Today
9:00: Cbc 4 Kids
10:30: CKWS-infomercial; CHEX-Rod Hembrey
11:00: The People's Court
12:00: Cbc News
1:00: Oprah
At 3:30, both stations have "Vicky and Kristena's Grocery Bag" a cooking show which is quite entertaining. It is probably produced by Corus Entertainment, the station's parent company.
At 5:00, both stations have "The Insider." This is a good move since people can see the show right when they get home from work instead of waiting till after dinner.
At 11:35, both stations still show David Letterman, and CHEX still has multicultural programming on the weekends.
