Just when WLS-Channel 7<\/a> finally has its morning and afternoon schedule straightened out,<\/a> the top-rated ABC-owned station is bracing for more changes to its daytime lineup.<\/p>\n

Next up is \u201cThe Fab\u201d (an acronym for \u201cFun and Beautiful\u201d), a Los Angeles-based syndicated lifestyle talk show. Host Tyra Banks, who\u2019ll double as executive producer, will moderate a panel featuring YouTube star Leah Ashley, Yahoo! Fashion and Entertainment editor-in-chief Joe Zee, model Chrissy Teigen and interior designer Lauren Makk.<\/p>\n

ABC 7 is one of eight ABC-owned stations that will air \u201cThe Fab\u201d when it debuts in the fall of 2015.\u00a0\u201cTyra and her panel of lifestyle experts share a chemistry that is energetic and extremely entertaining,\u201d Rebecca Campbell, president of ABC Owned Station Group, said in a statement. It\u2019s a return to daytime TV for Banks, who hosted her own talk show from 2005 to 2010.<\/p>\n

The latest addition will mark the fourth time in four years that ABC 7 has rearranged its daytime schedule. That\u2019s in contrast to the quarter-century of stability when \u201cThe Oprah Winfrey Show\u201d at 9 a.m. led off the station\u2019s bullet-proof block of morning and afternoon programming.<\/p>\n

When will \u201cThe Fab\u201d air here? ABC 7 executives are still figuring that out, but one thing is certain: \u201cThis show will not<\/em> be replacing \u2018Windy City Live,\u2019 \u201d a station spokeswoman said emphatically Thursday. The locally produced talk show airs at 11 a.m. weekdays.<\/p>\n
