Go Time is a syndicated programming block produced by Hearst Media Production Group (formerly Litton Entertainment) that airs select Hearst Media programs (that originally aired on its network-provided blocks) on local Fox, MyNetworkTV, and independent stations, as both Fox and MyNetworkTV did not carry a Hearst-branded block on their national schedules.[1]

National ad sales for the block were handled by Sony Pictures Television in lieu of Hearst Media.[1]

History

On April 27, 2015, Litton announced Go Time block would launch on October 1, 2016, with CBS' independent stations as its major body of stations, along with Gray Television and Sinclair Broadcast Group, the latter utilizing it for its MyNetworkTV stations; Hearst also carries it on its non-Big Three network stations.[2] Other groups carrying it are Cowles, Cox, NPG, Scripps, Nexstar, and Weigel Broadcasting.[1]
