The CW content (outside of Seinfeld re-reuns) is un-watchable. Well unless if you’ve been raised playing Doom.
I grew up watching Channel 11. Now, I have no reason to.
I have mixed feelings about that breaking story. I can imagine the Tegna-owned KONG-TV becoming Seattle’s new home to the CW and hope that happens. Otherwise, I can watch my favorite CW shows on the CW app on a next-day basis. Yet, I’m fine with whether or not KSTW may change its branding to “KSTW 11” or revert it to “Northwest 11.”
MeTV 11 or reruns of Green Acres and I Dream of Jeannie — back to decent Independent local tv. Sounds good to me.
Gooood Lookin’ 11!
