WNYW to run "Simpsons" start to finish; More on Peachtree TV; Chicago fall lineups

Fox-owned WNYW in New York will run every Simpsons episode in chronological order from 1 to 400 beginning on September 10. (Are you listening, WFLD?) Here's are the local fall lineup for WNYW, as well as two other New York stations, Tribune's WPIX and WNYW's sister, WWOR.

Meanwhile, here's more on the new WPCH - the former WTBS in Atlanta. The station is adding House of Payne (in 2008) and The Montel Williams Show, which it is acquiring from ABC affiliate WSB-TV, which previously aired at 10 a.m. This is the first talk show WTBS/WPCH will air since the ill-fated Ask Rita in 2004 and last fall's Megan Mulually Show.

The switchover begins on October 1, so make your plans...

But what about Chicago, you ask? Well, if there is any info on Chicago local TV fall lineups, yours truly will post those as soon as I can get them. Here's what I know thus far (or what I haven't covered in any other post:)

Coming to WWME-TV (Me TV) : The Dick Van Dyke Show (at 7 p.m. and 10:30 p.m beginning 9/17), The Cosby Show, Cheers

Coming to WGN: Degrassi: The Next Generation (8:30a - Noon Sundays, beginning 9/9)
