Guest bravesfan Report post Posted September 16, 2002 (Read below...this is my e-mail to Hawaii's current station which runs Smackdown...or at least WAS running it.) -----Original Message----- From: [email protected] Sent: Friday, September 13, 2002 5:42 PM To: Vaughan, Curt; Buenconsejo, Maelee Subject: RE: "Smackdown" pulled from KFVE? Greetings KFVE, Hi, this is Clayton from Maui, Hawaii. This is in regard to your programming schedule: A few days ago, I was browsing through your online schedule for the current week and noticed "WWE: Smackdown!" has not been listed for the next 2 weeks on its usual airdate (Thursday at 8:00 P.M.) or any airdate from Friday morning to the following Monday morning. It is to my knowledge that KFVE has been carrying both UPN and WB broadcasts and have never pre-empted "Smackdown" (a UPN show) for anything besides a local sports event. Last night, it was replaced by a 3 hour block of WB programming, including "The Jamie Kennedy eXperiment" and a few others. My question is: Has "WWE: Smackdown!" been pulled from the KFVE Lineup? or have you stopped carrying UPN telecasts on your station? Any help is appreciated on this matter. Keep up the great work, KFVE! And their fucking reply... Subj: RE: "Smackdown" pulled from KFVE? Date: 9/15/2002 8:00:48 PM Hawaiian Standard Time From: [email protected] To: [email protected] Sent from the Internet (Details) Dear Clayton: KFVE's affiliation agreement with UPN ended as of September 2nd, meaning we will no longer be carrying UPN programming. We do not know if another station will be picking up the affiliation. We believe that both KHON (FOX) and KGMB (CBS) will be running a few UPN shows however, we do not know which ones or when they will air. You can contact the other stations for more information.

Guest bravesfan Report post Posted September 16, 2002 Before anyone questions why I chose this forum to post this: well, the whole situation just pisses me off. I don't see anyway in HELL that any of the 4 local network stations (ABC, CBS, NBC, FOX) pick up Smackdown because of their loaded fall schedules...Kurt Angle will never see the light of day again! Reiterating the point again: SCREW YOU KFVE! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
