What would Abaza TV's schedule have looked like in 1984-85?
Network points awarded 1 for each hour on the schedule, 1/2 point for a half hour show.
Bold is the pick of the night bringing the network a bonus of 1 point regardless of length of show. Sports programs are not eligible to be the pick of the night.
After feedback from episode #1, 1979-80, I've decided to no longer allow time shift or day shift. All programs will only be available in their fall lineup spot or their replacement winter spot. So some split hours will happen where a sit-com will take the first half hour, then a drama will be joined in progress (if that's how I would have watched it).
Sunday
7:00pm Ripley's Believe it or Not! (ABC)
8:00pm Knightrider (NBC)
9:00pm all 3 networks had movies from 9-11. Not sure which was better so will divide the points as follows; ABC 1 - NBC .5 - CBS .5 - I remember ABC having the best movies

Battle of the Network Stars
NBC 14.0
CBS 10.5
ABC 4.5
6 year total
ABC 54.0
CBS 74.0
NBC 46.0
NBC which has been gaining momentum for the past couple of years went over the top this year with lots of sizzle shows.
CBS continues to develop great procedural dramas, while ABC languishes and has to thank its lucky stars for Monday Night Football.
Will NBC catch up to ABC in the lifetime ratings by the end of next year?
