Warner Bros. Domestic TV Distribution has lined up TV stations in 55% of the country for "The Bonnie Hunt Show," the daily syndicated talker that premieres in the fall.

Stations in 15 of the top-20 markets have signed up, agreeing to pay cash license fees and giving seven 30-second spots to Warners to sell to national advertisers.

Nine NBC-owned TV stations committed to the Hunt show earlier this month, including the flagships in N.Y., L.A. and Chicago. Since then, new signees include WCVB Boston, KSAZ Phoenix, WFTS Tampa, KING Seattle, KMSP Minneapolis, WEWS Cleveland, KWGN Denver and KCRA Sacramento.

Hunt, Jim Paratore and Don Lake are executive producers of the series for Bob & Alice Prods. and paraMedia Inc., in association with Telepictures Prods.
