14 NEWS to change afternoon program lineup next week

14 NEWS (WFIE) is making changes to its afternoon programming beginning Monday, Feb. 6.

Citing the growing popularity of Dr. Oz, the station is moving the doctor's program from its current 2 p.m. timeslot to the all-important 3 p.m. position in the lineup, where it will serve as a lead-in to 14 News at 4 p.m.

In addition to Dr. Oz's relocation, the other afternoon shows on 14 will also be moving:
  • Jeopardy!, which now airs at 1:30 p.m., will move to the 2 p.m. slot.
  • America Now, which currently airs double episodes at 3 and 3:30, will stick with two episodes, but will instead bookend Jeopardy! at 1:30 and 2:30 p.m.

The move of Dr. Oz will put the show in direct competition with its fellow Oprah spinoff, Dr. Phil, which moved from 14 to CBS44 WEVV last fall. It'll be interesting to see how each show does now that they'll be facing each other.
