SCTV returns to NBC

Syndication - NBC's Later

Between December 1998 and January 2002, SCTV returned to NBC for a run of syndicated reruns in the Later time slot. The shows were given a new Later-style opening credit sequence, but were otherwise essentially the same familiar syndicated shows (with a few additional edits to make them even shorter).
