A spreadsheet that I started on last March listing the dates when each episode of Strange Paradise originally aired in the United States and in Canada. The dates listed in red are currently unconfirmed, but I hope to confirm them eventually in my research. Sources are included, as are notes.

This was actually more complicated to make than it may appear, because I had to do a lot of detective work comparing episode summaries from the Lincoln Journal Star to the events in each episode to determine the premiere dates for the U.S. markets that started broadcasting SP the week of September 15, 1969. (I found the summaries describing Episodes 130-132 and worked forward and backward from there.) Back during the lockdown, I signed up for a free trial of Newspapers.com and pulled an all-nighter matching the summaries from the Sunday papers’ TV guides to individual episodes.

I should also note that this is not an exhaustive list of every single original airdate on every channel. On the Cleveland TV network WKBF, whose short broadcast of SP we have already examined in depth, the show vanished from the air after eleven weeks, only to return a month later only a week ahead of the Canadian broadcasts. I have a separate spreadsheet for WKBF airdates here. Likewise, many U.S. channels dropped the show early. So think of the dates on the first spreadsheet as rough guidelines of when the episodes aired in most markets.
