Dial listings are subject to occasional changes when special programming becomes available after this guide is published. When this occurs, your daily newspaper will contain the most up-to-date program information.
Instead of being listed in a separate repeat schedule, repeat broadcasts are now noted by “R” in the original listing, followed by the date and time of the repeal. If the repeat broadcast is on the same day as the original broadcast, only the time will be listed. If no channel is listed, the repeal is on the same channel as the original broadcast.
Programs providing descriptive video service (DVS), or narrated descriptions of key visual elements for the visually impaired, are marked with (D). To receive DVS, a viewer needs either 1) a stereo TV or stereo VCR that includes the SAP (separate audio program) channel; or 2) a stereo TV decoder that will convert a TV set to stereo with SAP.
At this time, all new American Playhouse. Mystery! and DeGrassi High programs include DVS, and more programs will be added in the future.
