We get it on Direct TV in Oregon but that's b/c it's a superstation just like TBS used to be

It's like a "superstation" or something whatever the fuck that means.

I noticed in other cities/states that have WGN is kind of different than Chicago's WGN. Kind of.

Yup. Even when the cable here was Time Warner (it's Comcast now) we got it and I live in Houston. I'm still not sure why but I'm not going to
complain, especially when they have marathons of the Munsters and Addams Family. lol.

If you're gonna go through all that trouble to change everything, why not just cut out the nightly news too? I don't care about the weather and news in Chicago. lol. |

NJ/NYC area and I get it (we have Verizon Fios). Used to have Time Warner a couple of years back and don't recall having it on there.

We've always had it in Arizona. My brother and I used to watch the Bozo Show in the morning on WGN!

Yeah, I'm from Central Illinois and when I was in Atlanta I thought it was weird but I was also stoked that we got WGN.

Yea I just read up on that. Apparently the WGN most everyone else gets can only be gotten by Chicago people on a dish. So weird. That is what I don't understand either. If they are going to go all TBS, then fine, but do we really need to see the news and weather reports. |

Yes, but I'm in Wisconsin so it's not that surprising.
