By Tuesday, January 8th, WEAR-TV in Pensacola, Florida (southeast of Mobile) and other ABC stations in the Central time zone were set to begin receiving live network feeds of "Jimmy Kimmel Live", a variety show, at 10:35 p.m., and "Nightline", a news program, at 11:35 p.m. on a regular basis beginning with the editions ABC would provide on that day. Before then, the stations usually began receiving "Nightline" at 10:35 p.m. and "Jimmy Kimmel Live" at 11:00 p.m. from Monday through Friday.
ABC first notified the general public about their new time periods for providing live network feeds of "Nightline" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live" through a statement released on Tuesday, August 21st, 2012. By the next day, WEAR-TV had their own plans for broadcasting the programs set: They would begin broadcasting "Jimmy Kimmel Live" at 11:01 p.m. and begin broadcasting "Nightline" at 12:01 a.m. after recording them from their live network feeds.
Before the new network times for "Nightline" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live" were enforced, WEAR-TV usually began broadcasting "Nightline" at 11:01 p.m and began broadcasting "Jimmy Kimmel Live" at 11:33 p.m after recording their live network feeds due to local news programming scheduled for broadcast between 10:30 p.m. and 11:00 p.m. After the new network times for "Nightline" and "Jimmy Kimmel Live" were enforced, the station still had plans to broadcast local news programming between 10:30 p.m. and 11:00 pm on a regular basis from Monday through Friday.
