Scheduling notes

  • The schedule also varies often in the months of September-December during college football season, where ABC and local affiliates move around the airing of the programs depending on either ABC's coverage or local pre-emption for another conference's package via ESPN + or another syndicator. Golf's British Open in July moves the lineup up on that Saturday morning to air in the afternoon.
  • In Honolulu, Hawaii, KITV airs the ABC Kids lineup (except Power Rangers, as mentioned above) over three weekdays (Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday). Two shows are aired each day from 11 a.m.-12 Noon, preceding ABC's soap opera lineup. This is because of ABC's Saturday afternoon sports coverage, which due to Hawaii-Aleutian Time, airs live five hours behind Eastern Time (six hours during Daylight Savings Time; Hawaii is on Standard Time year-round) in the late morning (for instance, a 3:30 p.m. EDT college football game kicking off at 9:30 a.m. HAST) and early afternoons for the primetime game, thus pre-empting ABC Kids and forcing the shows to air elsewhere on the schedule.
