Has the return one (3/28/98) yet been offered or no?

WXHC has altered the typical Premiere Casey AT40 logo to "The 70s, 80s, and 90s"--the first time I've ever seen the third decade added. A sign of things to come, or (probably) just a one station or special case?

He also replied to someone's hope that the CT40 shows eventually go into syndication by writing 'my goal too, these deserved to be aired'. I would say this is coming closer to fruition after all these years.

Or will Premiere have to settle with the Shadoe Stevens owners first? And I don't think the 3/28/1998 Casey return AT40 episode won't air until next year to celebrate the 25th. anniversary of the second coming of AT40 in 2023.

With this show, how many regular AT40 shows from the second run have been offered by Premiere? All I can think of is 5/23/98; 9/5/98 (that was Labour Day weekend, and a bonus show on the same weekend of 2021); the Top 40 of the 90s show played the first weekend of 2000; and the last one (1/3/04). My records show that the week of 06/29/2020 - 07/05/2020 (the 50 year anniversary of the first AT40), WPNC and WTOJ ran a whole week of special shows. Though most were July 4th specials or year-end specials from 1972 to 1988, they also ran the following shows: 07/17/1999 06/10/2000 05/05/2001 01/01/2004 -- Casey's last AT40 show

I wouldn't hold your breath for Shadoe Stevens' shows...based on everything that's been posted here and elsewhere, there is not enough interest for that to happen. I could always be wrong, but that has always seemed to be the prevailing notion.

On that note, anyone know what they'd have planned for this weekend?

I recall WTOJ ran a whole weekend full of shows from July 3 to July 6, 2020, but don't recall any of those listed. Ken went heavy on classic July 4th specials, aside from the "40 Days That Changed Music" special.

On that note, anyone know what they'd have planned for this weekend? WPNC did run 01/01/04 twice on 07/04/2020, once starting at 9am Eastern and again at 6pm. WTOJ didn't run any of these 4 shows. I didn't log any other stations because between WPNC and WTOJ, all shows offered by Premiere were covered.

I think the 1999-2001 regular shows were aired by those stations only, and weren't official Premiere offerings. Though I presume they received permission from Premiere or whoever needed to run them. Premiere would and should probably allow WTOJ to run anything they want, given how much work Ken Martin puts into the classic AT40 shows.

I would say this is coming closer to fruition after all these years. If this were to happen I have to wonder whether it'll just be the 90s. In other words do the 1989 shows get the shaft? If so it would be a shame since 1989 has a lot of great music and radio seems to ignore at least 75% of it.

The reason I think the 3 shows from 1999-2001 and the 01/01/2004 show that was Casey's last AT40 show should be included is because in the 1970-1979 remastered collection that Shannon Lynn/Charis lists for sale on Ebay for $750 includes these 4 shows. They are found between shows #50 and #51 on that disc between shows dated 06/12/71 and 06/19/71 and labeled "50th Anniversary of AT40 with Casey Kasem." All 29 options that were available that weekend are listed under that one heading. It even lists 07/04/2020 CHR and 07/04/2020 HAC shows that I don't think any station played, at least not that I am aware of.

No real reason not to do so and even though those years might not be as good as the mid-80s, there would figure to be interest in going back to '89. Who knows at this point though -- we can't really be sure this is actually going to happen until it does.

But if 1989 CT40 shows join the AT40: The 80's rotation, could 1983 and maybe 1984 go to A show with 1985-1988 B show option status?
