Syndicated program changes coming to local stations

We're getting closer to the beginning of the new fall season, and while the excitement usually surrounds the network shows, local TV stations have quite a few changes coming in the syndicated ranks as well.  Our good friend TeacherJake has done some deep background work to get us the information on these shows, so here's what's coming and on which station.
This will be updated as more information becomes available.
Local 7 WTVW
  • "3rd Rock From the Sun" comes back to the lineup starting next Monday, Sept. 5.  The show will air weeknights at 11:30 p.m., replacing "Scrubs."
  • Starting Sept. 12, you'll see two hours (!) of "Judge Judy" each weekday.  In addition to the existing 5-6 p.m. hour, the station is also adding an hour between 3-4 p.m.
  • Also joining the lineup:  "It's Always Sunny in Philadelphia" and "The Big Bang Theory." 
14WFIE & 14Xtra
  • "America Now" joins the daytime lineup for a full hour on 14WFIE beginning July 12 at 3 p.m., followed by the station's new 4 p.m. newscast.
  • Over on 14Xtra, as I told you earlier today, the subchannel's primetime lineup adds "Dr. Oz" repeats (which move from 8 a.m.) at 7 p.m. and the groundbreaking news program "RightThisMinute" at 8 p.m.  These replace "Dr. Phil" and "Oprah" reruns which now air.
WAZE-CW19
  • "That '70s Show" is back, finding a home at midnight starting Sept. 6.
  • "'Til Death" joins the weekday afternoon lineup starting Monday, Sept. 12 at 4 p.m.
  • "Seinfeld," which is the Methuselah of Tri-State syndicated shows, moves to afternoons at 4:30 p.m. beginning on the 12th as well.
WEHT-NEWS 25
  • No noteworthy changes.
CBS44 WEVV
  • As previously announced, "Dr. Phil" will make his move from 14WFIE to CBS44 on Sept. 12.  The timeslot is the same, 3 p.m.
  • Phil's arrival means "Ellen" will move to 4 p.m.
Fox44 WEVV
  • Anderson Cooper's new daytime talker, "Anderson," debuts on Sept. 12 and will hold the 1 p.m. timeslot, which is later than originally announced.
