However, the 2003 reality show "Cupid" did not air on the station, as have some controversial shows on sister station WRAZ, and WRAL was one of a few CBS affiliates in the nation that did not carry an hour of CBS' weekend morning children's programming block (in favor of "Brain Game" and "Smart Start Kids"). WRAL was also one of the few CBS affiliates that aired "The Young and the Restless" at 4 p.m. as a lead-in to its 5 p.m. newscast. Most CBS stations in the Eastern Time Zone air "Y&R" at 12:30 p.m. (CBS' recommended time for the show), but in the case of WRAL, the timeslot switch occurred in January 1993. This happened because the station's sitcom reruns (the show being run at the time was an hour-long block of "The Golden Girls") were having no luck against "The Oprah Winfrey Show" on WTVD. (The second half of their noon newscast and "Right This Minute" aired in "Y&R"s recommended time slot.) Today, "Y&R" continues to air at 4 p.m. on WNCN, while WRAL-TV carries local news at the time slot.
