WFXT is moving their 5pm news to 6p next fall to make room for the new "Dr. Oz" talk show. Given that this show is a spin-off from Oprah it's probably the only spot they can play it. It can't run against Dr. Phil (3p on WBZ) or Oprah (4p on WCVB) and probably wouldn't do well in the morning. It will be interesting to see if the Oprah crowd leaves the set on 5 after her show or if they migrate over to 25. I'm guessing it will be the former as TV habits die hard.
