event—by then reduced to a two-hour special—moved to ABC, airing locally on KOCO-TV [channel 5], in September 2013 for the final two years of the retitled MDA Show of Strengths overall run.)) KWTV previously served as Oklahoma City's original home of the nighttime syndicated game shows Wheel of Fortune and Jeopardy! from their respective 1983 and 1984 premeires. Wheel moved to KOCO in September 1992, and Jeopardy! was picked up by KFOR beginning January 2000. Past program preemptions and deferrals Since its 1953 sign-on, KWTV has periodically preempted or given tape-delayed clearances to some CBS programs to air local, syndicated or special event programs. However, CBS usually did not raise objections to preemptions made by channel 9, since it has typically been one of the network's strongest affiliates. Until 1959, KWTV preempted the CBS Evening News with Douglas Edwards to air syndicated drama series. The station also preempted CBS News Sunday Morning and Face the Nation from September 1984 until August 1995, in favor of carrying an extended block of local and syndicated religious programs on Sunday mornings; from the time they regained clearance until 2005, both programs were shown on a half-hour delay to accommodate an additional half-hour of the station's Sunday morning newscast. After Face the Nation expanded to a one-hour broadcast in April 2014, as certain other CBS affiliates have done since that time, KWTV aired the first half-hour of the Sunday morning talk show live-to-air on Sunday mornings and the second half-hour early Monday mornings on tape delay—the latter scheduling being used previously for the show (in its former half-hour format) from June 1983 until KWTV's September 1984 removal of the program—until February 2016 (during this time, the program aired in its entirety on KWTV-DT2 off its "live" feed through a partial simulcast with the station's main feed during FTNs first half-hour). In September 1993, the station began carrying The Price Is Right on a one-hour delay to air syndicated programs during the 10:00 a.m. hour, forcing The Young and the Restless to be moved concurrently to 3:00 p.m. After it had considered preempting the talk show because of contractual issues with its late-night syndication lineup shortly before it debuted that month, KWTV became one of a handful of CBS-affiliated stations to receive permission to air the Late Show with David Letterman on a half-hour delay, so as not to displace a secondary run of Jeopardy!
