There were some CBS affiliates that pulled TMNT during the Red Sky era for local

I've read stuff online stating that some CBS affiliates during the red sky seasons either moved TMNT to a late night slot or axed the show altogether during this era. Some felt that it was "too violent and dark" for a Saturday morning show targeted at kids. This started as early as Season 8, where the Baltimore CBS affiliate at the time, WBAL-TV, instead broadcasted FOUR HOURS of local news! I was like at the time, "I thought we should see Channel 6 news reporting!" It did return in reruns in January when the CBS affiliate moved to WJZ, but it definately gave me a "What happened?" feeling when I finally saw the red sky episodes.

Meanwhile, other local CBS affiliates may have done other rescheduling/cancellations. Please post what you can recall.
