- Pink indicates game shows.
- Gold indicates news and public affairs programming.
- Light teal indicates sporting events.

Schedule
edit- All times correspond to U.S. Eastern and Pacific Time scheduling (except for some live sports or events). Except where affiliates slot certain programs outside their network-dictated timeslots, subtract one hour for Central, Mountain, Alaska, and Hawaii-Aleutian times.
- Local schedules may differ, as affiliates have the option to pre-empt or delay network programs. Such scheduling may be limited to preemptions caused by local or national breaking news or weather coverage (which may force stations to tape delay certain programs to later timeslots) and any major sports events scheduled to air in a weekday timeslot (mainly during major holidays). Stations may air shows at other times at their preference.
Monday–Friday
editABC note: From September 19–30, 1988, Home aired for one hour, commandeering reruns of Growing Pains.
NBC note: NBC returned the 12:00 noon time slot to its affiliates beginning March 27, 1989, after Super Password finished its run three days earlier. Many NBC affiliates did not air the show in this timeslot, instead opting to air local news. The new soap Generations was available to affiliates at noon/11:00 CT or 12:30/11:30 CT.
