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.
