What about the high power station saying that they have first rights over shows
they clear for broadcast; and any LPTV's cannot air the ones' they've cleared,
while the high power is airing them. Because high power has special rights
over the airways (not per say the show), but if they cleared something to air,
an LPTV has to wait or not ever air the same shows. They have the cleared
broadcast rights, over an LPTV station. be produced by the LPTV; they would
have to find out if the high power is airing or not first. I think it sounds
like not true. It's really hard to believe their is a law like that.
What does anybody know about that? Is there any truth to it!

Yes, but Barney Fife, Aunt Bee, Gomer, and Goober did not appear in that
episode.
So by your theory, yes, Danny Thomas' estate might own the rights to the Andy
Taylor character, but the others belong to CBS.
Hard to find an episode that doesn't have one of those characters in it.

An issue with that ruling that I wonder is why it was never disputed is that
the actual pilot episode to Andy Griffith is owned by the Danny Thomas estate
As that pilot episode aired as part of his show. CBS paramount does not own the
rights to the Danny Thomas show.

I would think that entirely depends on who owns the original copyright? Did
all those TV shows license the music to BMI or ASCAP?

With the Beverly Hillbillies shows that are PD, they must also beshown without
the real opening or closing theme songs. The real PDversions have alternate
instrumental music in place of the real theme.

Rick, that is the correct assessment.
Interestingly the same rule applies to all the other shows thoughtto be in the
PD: Beverly Hillbillies, Bonanza, the Superman cartoons, etc.

In reading it, it appears there were copyrighted showsbefore and after the 16
“PD” Andy Griffith shows, thus the plot, characters andlocations were set in
the previous copyrighted material and only new plot,characters and locations
had become public domain. So maybe, and I am not acopyright lawyer, if those 16
episodes where the “First” 16 episodes, copyrightcould not have been claimed.

I heard a LPTV was threatened by a nearby high power, that hecouldn't air the
same program that a high power station was airing. Andhe was complaining about
Beverly Hillbillies for crying out loud. TheLPTV just took them off to avoid
trouble. But, this sounds over-the-topto me. I remember turning on every
channel playing the same shows,different episodes maybe, but either Law and
Order or NCIS. A freshunique ensemble of programs would be welcome to the
communities. Anyoneknow about that, High Power TV Station has exclusive rights
when airing PD.

Hi Jon,
This will help some LPTVs and hurt some LPTVs. LPTVs can besqueezed out by
full power stations. Some LPTVs can use this expandcoverage.
I wonder if this would allow some LPTVs to gain cable carriage byadding a
second DTS transmitter within 35 miles of the cable headend.

I saw this article and curious whether this will have any effecton LPTV? As
LPTV service is secondary, could this push some LPTV stations tomove or reduce
power?
