 During the 2000s, the telethon would end its national segments shortly before 6 p.m.ET, with any remaining time going to the local stations.In recent years, more "Love Network" stations opted not to show the entire telethon, opting to join the show in progress after the 11 p.m. / 10 p.m. local news, or even on Labor Day morning, after the network morning shows.
