In the Boston area, there are (at least) two stations that carry Donahue, on ein the late morning, one in the late afternoon.

That depends. What makes you think the scene is supposed to be a clue? And what makes you think that the person being apprehended is Laura's murderer? Remember, one of the basic built-in elements of previews is misdirection (just take a look at the discussion about the blood on the donuts). Now, as long as we're talking about the "apprehension" scene in the previews... The last shot shows Harry walking toward the camera. In the background, we see Deputy Andy standing with his gun drawn and pointed in the same direction. It's probably just my imagination, and he's taking aim on whoever the quarry is, but it also looks as if maybe he's pointing at Harry's back. Definitely gave me an ominous chill. } As for Leland, was I the only one who thought it was strange that in } the pilot, when HST came by to tell about Laura, that he immediately } assumed that she was dead [...] Well, so did his wife. Does that mean that she was in on it, too? Hell, she was even "worse" than Leland. The minute Leland said that Truman was there, she went into hysterics. -- "I never use a pen.
