Tic Tac Dough moved from WOR to WCBS in New York City about halfway through the 1982-1983 season. The Joker's Wild had moved from WOR to WCBS prior to the 1981-1982 season. Both JOKER and TIC TAC returned to WOR from WCBS prior to the 1984-1985 season. Both JOKER and TIC TAC got cancelled at the conclusion of the 1985-1986 season!
If not for the move to WOR, Kit would have only been allowed to keep $50K of the $199750 in stuff he won. When TTD was on WCBS in 1983-84, winnings over $50K went to charity, although unlike Joker with Joe Dun, TTD didn't retire any champions when they were on WCBS.
TTD was only on WCBS for the 1983-84 season IIRC. I think WOR aired it in 1982-83, ISTR to remember it airing in the morning then at some point during the season. 1983-84 was the only season Wink had to mention the "winning over $50K goes to charity" spiel. I don't remember him doing it for WIlbur Hicks, who was on early in the 1982-83 season.
what was on at at 9:00 and 9:30 on WCBS in the mid 80s?
