Notes
On ABC, ABC Evening News was produced at 6:00 PM Eastern/5:00 PM Central, and aired live by some affiliates. This early feed of the broadcast was discontinued in 1982.
The Edge of Night aired its final CBS broadcast on November 28, 1975. The serial moved to ABC on December 1, 1975 with a 90 minute episode; Although it aired in the 4PM (ET)/3PM (CT) timeslot, affiliates were allowed to air the program outside the scheduled timeslot, while affiliates in the Pacific Time Zone had a 12 Noon feed for the series.
In the Pacific Time Zone (from December 1975 to March 1977), ABC's lineup had its game shows aired in the morning, while the 12 Noon to 3 PM block featured The Edge of Night, Ryan's Hope, All My Children, One Life to Live, and General Hospital in succession.
On November 3; The Price Is Right, having done a week of hour-long test episodes in September, officially expanded to an hour. To accommodate the change; Give-n-Take (which had held the time slot immediately preceding Price for its final half-hour shows) moved to the 4 PM (ET)/3 PM (CT) slot that opened up following the cancellation of the short-lived Musical Chairs for the balance of its run before Give was ultimately replaced by Tattletales returning to that time slot.
