KPRC receives the '''BroaDWcast''' award for most inept scheduling:
 
 
 
*'''18 September-24 November 1978''': Aired Monday-Friday at 3pm.
 
*'''8 March 1980''': The series returns, now at 12:30am.
 
*'''26 April 1980''': The timeslot is now pushed back to 1am.
 
*'''6 September 1980''': [[The Deadly Assassin]] part 1 airs at the scheduled time of 2am.
 
*'''25 October 1980''': With the end of the baseball season, '''Doctor Who''' now also airs Saturday afternoons at various times.  These airings are considered to be the same run, so stories begun in the afternoon are finished in the middle of the night.
 
 
 
''Doctor Who Monthly'' issue 71 (Dec. 1982) published a letter from a KPRC viewer:
 
<blockquote>For several months our local TV station personnel began making fun of it-- adding their own sound effects and laughter.  Can you imagine the Skarasen ([[Terror of the Zygons]]) burping? I have it on videotape! Also, whenever shown on Sunday (i.e. Saturday?) afternoons, it was cut to 90 minutes (including commercials) so with [[The Masque of Mandragora]] we had the whole last ten minutes chopped out.</blockquote>
 
 
 
*'''4 April 1981''': Baseball returns, '''Doctor Who''' leaves the afternoon schedule.  But the late night slot gets a second (and sometimes third and fourth) episode.
 
*'''10 October 1981''': '''Doctor Who''' returns to Saturday afternoons in various slots, often preempted.
 
*'''20 November 1982''': [[Genesis of the Daleks]] is the last story to air.
