Re: Retro: New York City Fri, June 28, 1957
"NBC News" on Channel 4 at 7:45 P.M. was, at this point, a year away from acquiring the overall
name by which it would be known up to July 31, 1970 - The Huntley-Brinkley Report. The "bright
new" anchor team of Chet Huntley and David Brinkley were already in place at this point, having
anchored the newscast since Oct. 29, 1956.
Also, the Empire State Building was where WATV had their transmitter, unless they also had
secondary studios there. Their main studios were situated at the "Mosque Theatre" a.k.a. the
"Symphony Hall Building" at 1020 Broad Street in Newark, which would later be the first home of
WNJU-TV 47. The Herald-Tribune was always New York-oriented in terms of addresses; after
WATV became WNTA-TV, for example, the H-T gave the station's address as 10 Columbus Circle,
whereas TV Guide listed the Newark address.
As for the then-Kansas City Athletics who played the Yankees on Channel 11: It was, under the
ownership of Arnold Johnson, considered a de facto farm team of the Yankees, with many
players shifted from the A's to the Yanks under his five year reign that began in 1955 and ended
with his death in 1960. Its second-division status for much of his run earned Johnson a spot
among the worst baseball owners in Bruce Nash and Allan Zullo's The Baseball Hall of Shame -
Vol. 2.
At this point, both WRCA and WABC had some of the pictures from the massive RKO library in
their respective inventories, as based on Channel 7's airing of The Marx Brothers' Room Service
this day; it was a few years before all these pictures would slink over to WOR-TV.

Notice that on Channel 7 from 12:30 to 1:30 is the Joe Franklin Show, also known as Joe
Franklin's Memory Lane. He may be the only person in this TV listing not only still alive but still
broadcasting. He does weekend features for WBBR Bloomberg Radio 1130 (also heard on
Sirius/XM).
Just as he did on the Channel 7 show (later moving to Channel 9 and running mornings and late
nights for decades) on Bloomberg he interviews stars of the past, movies, TV and music. Even
though he's easily in his 80s now, he really doesn't sound like he's lost a step. His features aren't
live. I'm sure they're edited. But he still sounds sharp.
Betty White also had a sitcom at this point, I think on DuMont, called Life with Elizabeth,
although that's not listed on this day. White and Franklin may be the only TV personalities from
this era still working.

Didn't indicate in the listings, but there seemed to be a few blanks here and there, I've cross-
referenced the week's listings to make sure everything there that's supposed to be...

Sounds like a misprint on the part of the Herald-Tribune;
I can't imagine "ATWT" not being on Ch. 2 at 1:30 either.
Re Betty White: "Life With Elizabeth" was a syndicated
show; she was about to start a new sitcom, "Date With
The Angels," which aired on ABC Friday nights in the fall
of '57; IIRC, when the show flopped, she got a variety show
on Wednesdays in early 1958. BTW, the announcer on "Date
With The Angels" was on the verge of making it big: Tom Kennedy
(brother Jack Narz had been the announcer on "Life With Elizabeth").
And in a little over a month, "American Bandstand" would debut on
Ch. 7 at 3 PM.

I didn't see the 9:00am listing for WRCA. Was this another misprint? If so, what aired in that
slot?

Life With Elizabeth was syndicated by KLAC-TV (now KCOP) Los Angeles between 1953 and 1955.
I don't know if KLAC syndicated the reruns.
Besides, Dumont was dead by 1957, except for O&Os WABD New York and WTTG Washington
operating as independents.

Interesting that WOR-TV was still running Terrytoons in 1957, since CBS had bought the company
a couple of years earlier. Finishing out a previous contract, maybe? I would think, at least in NYC,
they would have been running on WCBS-TV by this time.

Interesting to see "Tinker's Work Shop" on Ch. 7 at 8 AM.
Bob Keeshan started that show, and its popularity (it actually
beat the second hour of CBS's "Morning Show," but then, what
doesn't beat CBS in the early morning?) led CBS to cut out the
second hour of "The Morning Show" and start "Captain Kangaroo"
in 1955. And we all know who played the Captain.
Actually, there was one CBS show that beat the "Today" show:
Jimmy Dean had a 45-minute show (7-7:45 AM) in 1957, but CBS
decided to put him on at 2 PM (its most troublesome daytime slot
from the time of Robert Q. Lewis' departure in 1956 to the debut
of "Password" in 1961) and he met the same fate as all CBS 2 PM
shows at the time.
You may have noticed the listing "Bandstand" on Ch. 8. IIRC, theirs
was called "Connecticut Bandstand" and it continued to air for some
time after the debut of "American Bandstand." Not long ago, someone
asked if "Bandstand" stayed on the air in Philadelphia during the 3:30-4
PM slot when ABC was showing "Who Do You Trust?". The answer is yes
("Trust" aired on delay at 1:30); although Dick Clark fought to get ABC to
move "Trust," the Alphabet network ended up cutting the 3-3:30 portion
of "Bandstand" and gave it a starting time of 4 PM, although (somebody from the Philadelphia
market correct me, but I've never heard of "Trust" airing at 3:30 there) I think
"Bandstand" still aired locally from 3:30-4 as well.
In Cleveland, there was a show titled "Bandstand" Saturday afternoons from 1954-59, first on
WEWS-5 then moving to WJW-TV 8..Hosted by Cleveland DJ Icon Phil McLean and Teen hostess
Darlene Kane. In November 1959, McLean was replaced by Kemal Kassim, "Casey At The
Mike" on WJW-AM 850..Of course we know him as "Casey Kasem" of AT 40, Shaggy of Scooby
Doo and NBC announcer fame..

In his book "Rock, Roll & Remember," Dick Clark mentions that
show in Cleveland and how in 1955, after having substitute-hosted
the Philadelphia show (Bob Horn was hosting it then), he ofered
his services to the general manager at WEWS, whose response was,
"I don't want to put that ---- on the air. I don't even want to talk
to you." Clark admitted in the book that he wasn't unhappy about the
turndown; had he left Philadelphia, he said, nothing would have happened
to him in television. Could the Cleveland show have already moved to Ch. 8
and a new g.m. taken over at Ch. 5 by any chance, or is Clark perhaps practicing
selective memory? (Memories get hazy as one gets older; Clark also mentions
working at WKTV Utica, NY; Don Morrow says he replaced Clark at WHEN (WTVH)
Syracuse when Clark went to Philadelphia, but Clark says the Syracuse ofer fell
through when the g.m. at WKTV called WHEN's g.m. and said, in efect, "hands of,"
giving Clark a raise in the process. It wasn't long after that that Clark's father
suggested he call a friend, Roger Clipp, g.m. at WFIL, and the rest is history.)
Also, I know that CapCities at one time owned both Ch. 6 in Philadelphia and
Ch. 8 in New Haven; is there any connection between that fact and the fact
that both stations had a local "Bandstand" before the Philadelphia show went
network?

By the time CapCities took over both the Philly and New Haven stations (and changed their call
letters accordingly), Clark's American Bandstand was already in Hollywood (based out of ABC's
Prospect & Talmadge studios) for slightly over seven years, and in color for nearly four; as well as
having been a once-a-week Saturday afternoon ofering for almost eight years. At the time his
Bandstand went national, the two stations were owned by Walter Annenberg's Triangle
Publications which also published The Philadelphia Inquirer and TV Guide. It's probable that
Triangle stations may've had a local Bandstand in their respective cities; what is known that
then-WFIL and then-WNHC also had late night movie shows called World's Best Movies.

Not to mention the change in AB from weekdays to once a week in '63 opening up local ABC
affiliates' and O&O's plugging the holes with their own afternoon movie shows; including WABC-
TV in New York putting on a movie show that was an ancestor to what became famous as The
4:30 Movie.

ABC didn't give back 4:30-5 until 1967; from 1963-65 it

carried "Trailmaster," reruns of the Ward Bond "Wagon Train"s
from 4-5; from 1965-67 it carried "Where The Action Is" from
4:30-5, following a couple of soaps: "Never Too Young," which
didn't make it through the 1965-66 season; and "Dark Shadows,"
which debuted in June 1966.

I recently acquired home access to Cleveland Plain Dealer Archives from 1845-1991 through
obtaining a Cleveland Public Library Card..
According to those archives, a music show called "Bandstand" was scheduled to premiere
Saturday, February 13, 1954 on WEWS from 2 to 4 in the afternoon, hosted by Phil McLean and
Barbara Page..I'm not sure where the Dick Clark Story fits in here..

The Cleveland "Bandstand" move to WJW-TV 8 was March 2, 1957..American Bandstand began
August 5, 1957 and was carried on WEWS..

10:15-3:00 is quite a stretch for a movie. Does the name "Tune in Anytime" mean the movie was
repeated during the day?
That would be my guess, and it seemed to be the practice on some of the indies, based on 9 and
13's evening line-up...
Indy stations ran so many movies during their broadcast day in the 50s and 60s, that some of the
show titles got a bit bizarre. I recall KHJ-TV's afternoon "Groovie Movie" in the late 60s.
Naturally, the theme song for the show - played at the beginning and into commercial breaks -
was The 59th Street Bridge Song (you know ..."Feelin' groovy...") by Harper's Bizarre.

Brooks & Marsh and one other source (Wiki :) indicate that 60 Minutes did not air during
the fall of 1971.
The fall '71 CBS schedule had the movie at 7:30 ET, followed by Cade's County at 9:30 ET
(10:30-11 ET was not programmed by the network). Did WTAR-TV run these on a half-hour
delay--or a one-week delay?

Re: Retro: Indianapolis/Lafayette/Terre Haute Fri, July 4, 1975
Out of curiosity, does anyone know when channel 49 in Muncie changed from commercial to
non-commercial? The original call was WLBC-TV. It also had AM-FM affiliates, and for several
years (at least in the 1954 Senate hearings about UHF-TV) was hailed as a success story in
Muncie.

WLWI 13-ABC Indianapolis (appropriately enough for the day, 13's logo in those days was a 13
surrounded by 13 stars)
They weren't the only ones to do so; WTVT 13 in Tampa, FL did likewise for the Bicentennial.
Alas, their "13" logo had a bit of diferences; namely the font used for the number.

I don't know how true this is, but Wikipedia has it that the station was sold in 1971 to a non-
profit group, & the allocation was changed to non-commercial, & the call letters to the current
ones of WIPB. Prior to its current affiliation of PBS (never affiliated with predecessor NET),
WLBC-TV affiliated with ABC, NBC, & CBS.
Ball State University bought WLBC-TV on 10/26/71, per the 1972 Broadcasting Yearbook.
Channel 49 had been NBC primary and ABC secondary since around 1964, when it dropped CBS.
IIRC, they did carry Monday Night Football during its first season and a half.
The fact that it survived 18 years as a low-power (about 140 kW video ERP when it was sold)
network affiliate so close to Indy is amazing in itself. Most of those early small-town UHFs were
long gone by 1971.
During the Bicentennial year WTVT changed its slogan from "Big 13" to "The Original 13,"
changing it back after July 4. 1976
(although I hardly noticed or cared; KDFW was about to become my CBS affiliate).

Re: Retro: Southern Saskatchewan Tues, July 5, 1988
A couple of notes on the CTV stations...
* In the early evening, CKCK (and CICC too, I think, but not 100% sure) carried local news 6-6:30,
followed by a province-wide program at 6:30.
* CICC in late night picked up CKCK at 11:20, starting their local nightcast at 11:34.

I remember twenty years ago I lived in Detroit where I worked with a guy who had family in
Saskatchewan. He came back from a visit once and told me he had gone all the way out to
Saskatchewan, sat down in their living room, turned on their TV and the Channel 7 News with
Bill Bonds was on!

Hard to believe channel 13 delegated Dark Shadows to mornings. Didn't they know all
the school kids had rather watch that in the afternoons than Bugs & The Stooges? Bugs
would have made more sense in the mornings.
The General Manager probably had a thing about vampires.

I thought that Dark Shadows had been cancelled earlier in the year by ABC and that Password
replaced DS unless the station was showing episodes that were months behind and didn't air
originally on the station. I noticed also that the reruns of Love, American Style weren't shown on
that station as well as by this time LAS was also rerunning at 4:00 Eastern on ABC.

Yup....DS's swan song was 4/2/71.....Password replaced DS at the 4pm timeslot but in September
moved to 12:30...Quite interesting that DS was still running as I didn't think it went into
syndication that quickly...

**no listings for 28 WJSP (GETV) Columbus/Warm Springs although it had been on the

However, Alabama ETV's in-school programming was listed.
***Seems like WALB 10 NBC Albany should have been in this edition also, as many in
that area received signals from Columbus.

SELMA
WSLA 8-ABC (WAKA CBS today)
This station has an interesting history. Selma was a diferent market than Montgomery and WSLA
had
such a week signal it barely reached Montgomery. UHF CBS WCOV 20 fought WSLA's attempts
for 30 years to increase power, afraid a VHF would take CBS away from them (after Montgomery
got it's own ABC station). http://www.waka.com/about-cbs-8/62-cbs-8-history.html WSLA burnt
to the ground in 1968 and was dark until 1973 when it returned as a CBS station and with the
largest coverage area in Alabama. WCOV was Montgomery's first station and is with the FOX
network today. They argued to the FCC that giving more power to WSLA would hinder UHF
growth. Once WSLA got more power WCOV lost it's CBS affiliation just as it had always feared.

Re: RETRO: ALABAMA-GEORGIA, WEDNESDAY, OCTOBER 20, 1965
This edition became the Southern Alabama Edition
(it was by the time I moved to Alabama in 1969);
Columbus was also in Georgia/Florida and South Georgia.
Albany was in Georgia-Florida/South Georgia since it really
had little or no coverage in Alabama.

Columbus stations were white number, black background
in South Georgia; just the opposite in Southern
Alabama and Georgia/Florida.

This edition was in Central Time (as if it was made for Alabama) but there were adds
for the Columbus stations in it. I'd think they made an Eastern Time edition also, as
these times would not work for Columbus.
So if a station in Columbus placed an add, I guess they could be in all 3 editions if
they wanted to.
The story about WSLA in Selma is one of the most interesting broadcasting tid-bits
I've ever read.
How did Montgomery get stuck with so many UHF stations? Seems like there should
have been some VHF numbers available.
NBC was clearaly the leader in color programming at this time, far ahead of CBS/ABC.

Montgomery got squeezed by being 90 miles S of Birmingham (6, 10 and 13), 85 miles W of
Columbus (3 and 9), 110 miles E of Meridian (11), 100 miles NW of Dothan (4) and 165 miles NE
of Mobile/Pensacola (3, 5 and 10). Also, APT had VHF stations on Channel 2 (Dozier-Andalusia,
about 60 miles S) and Channel 7 (Mt. Cheaha/Anniston, about 125 miles to the NE as the crow
flies). In the name of competitive fairness, Montgomery probably should have been made an all
UHF market, or Channel 8 should have been assigned to Montgomery, although the size of the
Montgomery DMA would have precluded south Alabama from being adequately served. WSFA-
12 has dominated the market from day one.
I never quite understood why Channels 6 and 13 from Birmingham were never included in the
South Alabama edition of TV Guide...and why WSFA was never included in the North Alabama
edition. Channel 6 and 13 have signals that reached into Autauga and Elmore counties and were
included on cable systems in and around Montgomery well into the 80's. Likewise, Channel 12's
signal covered most of the southern end of the Birmingham metro area.
And why was WIIQ-41 (APT) in Demopolis never included in any edition of TVG except for the
Southern Mississippi edition?

Ads for Columbus stations were indeed listed Central time in the Southern Alabama
Edition, Eastern time for the others.
Don't forget, too, that by this time all but two of NBC's primetime shows were in color;
the exceptions were "I Dream Of Jeannie" and "Convoy." CBS was at about 50% color
in primetime; ABC, 40%, which cost them dearly after the impressive ratings showing
of the previous season, one which caused CBS to make 11 schedule changes and helped
cost Jim Aubrey his job.

WJSP was never listed in the Southern Alabama Edition;
only Alabama Public Television stations WDIQ/2 Dozier,
WAIQ/26 Montgomery, and WGIQ/43 Texasville were listed.
WJSP was listed under GPT in the South Georgia Edition,
and as 28 in the old Georgia-Florida Edition.
Although WSFA was never listed in a broadcast edition of
TV Guide with Birmingham (unless it was in the '50s), it was
listed in the Bright House Cable Edition along with WAKA (CBS),
WCOV (Fox), and WNCF (ABC). Likewise, WBRC (Fox), WVTM (NBC),
WCFT (ABC), and WIAT (CBS) were in that edition, as were the
Columbus, Dothan, and Panama City affiliates and WCTV Tallahassee.
If I'm correct, the affiliations for the big four networks were:
CBS 3, 4, 6 (Tallahassee), 8, 42
Fox 6 (Birmingham), 20, 28, 54
NBC 7, 12, 13 (Birmingham), 38

ABC 9, 13 (Panama City), 18, 32, 33

I never saw a BrightHouse edition of TV Guide. The Charter edition included Birmingham,
Montgomery and Huntsville, although the channel conversion grids also included Charter
systems in NE Mississippi. I never understood why this edition didn't have program listings for
the Columbus, GA stations, since Charter is the cable company that serves Opelika-Auburn. And
it didn't include the listings for the Chattanooga stations, which serve Scottsboro and Stevenson
(also Charter markets).
As it was, the network groupings looked like this:
Fox: 6-20-54
CBS: 8-19-42
NBC: 12-13-48
ABC: 31-32-33-40
UPN: 15-67-68
WB: 21
Had the issue included all the network affiliates listed in the conversion grid, it would have been
something like this:
CBS: 3 (Columbus, GA)-4 (Columbus, MS)-4 (Dothan)-8-12 (Chattanooga)-19-42
NBC: 3 (Chattanooga)-9 (Tupelo)-12 (Montgomery)-13-38-48
Fox: 6-20-27 (West Point, MS)-34 (Ozark-Dothan)-54 (Huntsville)-54 (Columbus, GA)-61

(Chattanooga)
ABC: 7 (Jackson, TN)-9 (Columbus, GA)-9 (Chattanooga)-18 (Dothan)-31-32-33-40
UPN: 15-66 (Opelika-Columbus)-67-68
WB: 21
...and it would be the most confusing set of channel bullets this side of the Montana or South
Georgia editions!

What about places such as Lanett, Alabama, which was part of the Atlanta market? Are any
areas of Alabama in "Atlanta" covered by Charter?

I don't know how it used to be, but according to TVGuide.com, Lanett is now part of the
Columbus DMA. Even APT or WSFA aren't a part of their channel lineup.
I lived in Auburn in the late 80's. While Lee County is part of the Columbus DMA, we got WSFA,
WCOV and WCIQ on the cable...and didn't get GPT. I believe that it had only been a couple of
years earlier that WXIA had been removed from the cable lineup, but that was the only Atlanta
station besides WTBS that had been on the cable there.
Similarly, cable systems in Birmingham had both WTBS and WANX-46 in their channel lineup in
the late 70's and early 80's. Channel 17 was included in TV Guide, but Channel 46 wasn't.

Re: Retro: Virginia Beach Norfolk Area - Fall 1972 - Weekdays
WSET Lynchburg also carried movies in the 6:30-8 slot later
in the '70s. When WVEC began doing that, they cut their local
news to 30 minutes, moved it to 5:30, and carried ABC News at 6,
the only one of three ABC stations in the Eastern Virginia Edition
of TV Guide to do that (Harrisonburg and Richmond got Smith and
Reasoner at 6:30).
I can't believe the amount of schedule juggling you list for Channel 3.
For the record, the CBS daytime schedule in the fall of '72 (10 AM-4:30 PM)
was:
10 AM Joker's Wild
10:30 Price Is Right
11 AM Gambit

Nope...this was a Canadian show, not sure as from where-Western Canadian programming
seemed to run on most CBC stations in the 9-10am slot in those days...

Took me a while to track down the open on YouTube, but France 3 was listed as the only specific
participating station, though the European Broadcasting Union is also mentioned and the BBC's
distribution arm BBC Worldwide supplied some footage for the program.

Re: Retro: Virginia Beach - Fall 1972 - Sunday
I didn't think "60 Minutes" aired in the fall at that time
(its timeslot was Sunday 6-7 ET, where football had priority).
Most of the CBS affiliates I pay attention to, such as WFMY,
WBTV, and (at the time) WAGA, ran local news at 7, followed
by "Anna And The King" at 7:30.
And that Sunday was November 12; I have that week's TV Guide
from Georgia, Kentucky, and North Carolina.

they were in Baltimore, but some of these don't add up to what TV Guide
shows for this date.

Note: Religious Sunday fare was often syndicated it seems to more than one station in the same
market, which probably explains why shows hosted by Rex Humbard and Jimmy Swaggart and
others aired pretty much everywhere at the time. Not sure if by this stage in the decade satellite
transmission to make syndication in general easier had begun regular usage.
NBA Basketball: Three playof games were played that day. San Antonio beat Houston 114-112 to
tie their series at 2 games each. Kansas City beat Phoenix 102-95 to take a 3-1 series lead.
Milwaukee beat Philadelphia 109-98 to tie the series 2-2.

Only two Denver stations had Card Sharks -- KMGH, of course, had the CBS version hosted by
Bob Eubanks, while KUSA carried the syndicated version hosted by Bill Raferty.

"WROC 8-NBC Rochester
8:00 Shhh!"
That was a Saturday and Sunday morning kids' show that ran for several years on WROC/Channel
8, with locally produced intros and skits along with various cartoons and Three Stooges shorts--
the title referred to the fact that if you were a kid you were expected to enjoy the show, but
quietly, and let your parents sleep in on weekend mornings. (Yeah, right...)
The host was a mild-mannered, easygoing fellow named Tony DeFusto, who did TV as kind of a
part-time thing while teaching full time in the Brighton School District in suburban Rochester. He
left Channel 8 a long time ago and I believe he's now retired from teaching as well. His style and
personality were a lot like what we'd see later on national TV from Fred Rogers, who was doing
his thing in Pittsburgh in the late 60s.

Re: Retro: Milwaukee Thurs, July 12, 1973
Unless someone has already posted it in the past, does anyone have another schedule for
another Thursday, July 12 six years to the day after this date--particularly July 12, 1979 for about
90 miles down I-94 from Milwaukee (Chicago). ;D ;D ;D That would be the night of Steve Dahl's
"Disco Demolition" during a White Sox doubleheader.

Why wasn't WTBS also carrying Cubs/Braves?

Right. TBS did carry the Friday night game. I guess they didn't have the rights to
Thursday's game.
WTBS (now known of course as just "TBS: Very Funny") was worth having on those old master
antenna systems.
WGN (long before someone split it between Chicago and WGN-America signals and the Chicago
station became an affiliate of what now is The CW) was a pleasant curiosity, if you could get it in
the Eastern US.
The viewer in the Tri-State area around Pittsburgh had WTBS and usually WOR-New York rather
than WGN. There also was HBO (anyone remember its entertaining late night sign-of?) and
ESPN.
What edition of TV Guide?
What does it matter? It's all the same schedule for WGN and WTBS
I was asking gregg75, not you. I wanted to know
what local edition it was so maybe I could request
a schedule for broadcast stations in that area.

Re: RETRO: WGN & WTBS, THURSDAY, APRIL 29, 1982
I believe both stations were great in their own right, but I would have gone with WGN over
WTBS because they presented more local programming than WTBS. Not to mention, on and of
through the years, they featured some of the same programming (Leave it to Beaver, Carol
Burnett, Andy Griffith, Scooby-Doo, etc.). The Syndex laws never really afected TBS, but it
certainly did to WGN (and WWOR), and from that point on, watching local programming (ads,
news especially) were never the same.

Surprised WTBS didn't carry a Braves game; I thought they carried all 162 up until ESPN got
involved in 1990?
Was there some agreement when the Braves and Cubs played that since both channels were
'superstations', they couldn't air those games simultaneously? This certainly changed by the '90s,
when both superstations AND ESPN frequently aired the same Braves-Cubs contests!

They both aired Friday's game. This was just one TBS didn't broadcast.

than WGN. There also was HBO (anyone remember its entertaining late night sign-of?) and
ESPN.
Very true. I remember the steady diet of Braves and Mets games, despite being within spitting
distance of Three Rivers Stadium.
WOR had just moved to Secaucus and was running a lot of New Jersey oriented programming to
try and get their local bona-fides. They were pulled in favor of WGN sometime after I moved out
of state.
In the late 70's before our particular neighborhood was wired for cable, the local systems used a
central ground station to receive these channels and then transmitted the signal around to local
offices via microwave. I remember having neighbors who bought some type of black-market
microwave receivers and dishes. They pointed them at a local radio tower that was being used to
relay the signal to get "free" HBO.

I believe what prompted this question was how the original poster, instead of listing the stations
as "WGN" and "WTBS," labeled them "9" and "17" - and I doubt that there's any physical area
between Illinois and Georgia that would guarantee any OTA reception of both in the same area
whatsoever, to warrant having both listed by their respective channel numbers in their home
markets.

Of course, up until the early-1980s, many TVG editions, as well as other news listings, used "9"
for WGN and "17" for WTBS, regardless of aerial availability or a diferent local station
broadcasting on that channel.

It was pretty much seen in TVG as (WGN) and (TBS) but early on they were (9C) and (17A).

From TV Guide, North Georgia Edition:
NOTE: Watergate hearings were scheduled for this day and
would pre-empt regular programming on whichever network
had them that day (I think it was the following Monday that
Alexander Butterfield disclosed the existence of the White House
taping system). PBS stations may air them on tape this evening.

Re: Retro: Atlanta/Chattanooga/Macon Thursday, July 12, 1973
"Music for All America", shown on WRCB-3 Chattanooga during that summer of '73, was a
syndicated Southern gospel show featuring the Blue Ridge Quartet, and was taped at WSPA-7
Spartanburg, SC, where the quartet were based back then; they broke up in the mid-'80s after
the passing of one of its members.

Re: Retro: Atlanta/Chattanooga/Macon Thursday, July 12, 1973
9 PM Movie: "Operation: Cobra" (1971 film with David
Janssen as a treasury agent; I assume this is the
pilot for "O'Hara, United States Treasury")
Your assumption is correct, bp. That was O'Hara's pilot, one that launched a one-season efort in
1971-72 by Jack Webb to translate his Dragnet approach into a federal agency, since WB (and
Quinn Martin) locked him out of doing the FBI, which would have been the logical end of the
governmental trail (all manner of speculation, of course, has been made about what Webb
would have done had he stayed at WB and not run 77 Sunset Strip into the ground). O'Hara was
notable as being Webb's first hourlong show and one the few he didn't do for NBC.

KTLA-5 ind
7:00pm Dodgers host the Yankees
Sorry, couldn't have been. This was way before interleague play was adopted by Major League
Baseball.
At the time, KTLA was the Angel station. I'm not sure if it was still owned by Gene Autry at that
time, who also owned the Angels.
You did get the announcers right, though.
The Dodgers, from the time they moved from Brooklyn in 1958 to the early 90s were on KTTV-

Yes - that had to have been an Angels game. BTW - according to Wikipedia, Autry still owned
KTLA - he sold it in 83 to investors who sold it to the current owners (Tribune) two years later in
1985.

Ralph and Norton drop acid? :
No, this was shorthand for what was initially syndicated as The Honeymooners' Trip to Europe,
the 1966-67 color shows that were later part of The Color Honeymooners package that aired for
a few years in the 2000's on the AmericanLife channel. WNEW Channel 5 in New York ran it for a
time in 1977, but for a myriad of reasons this syndicated package (by Metromedia Producers
Corporation, from my understanding) flopped tremendously.
Also, KTLA was indeed owned by Autry at the time, and it would have been Angels/Yankees.
Besides, notice which announcing name was missing from that listing - Vin Scully. Who was and
still is the Voice of the Dodgers.

it...

...aah, yes, with Arte Johnson as a disc jockey who gets a gig at the strangest station you ever
heard. At least the strangest station Rod Serling ever heard. I think Nova M had something to do
with that station ;D ...
...did this ownership continue through the days when Peter Ivers hosted New Wave Theater on
KSCI? Hardly a show that led anyone to meditation ;D ...

The Wikipedia article (usual disclaimers apply ) say that the station was sold in 1986 to its GM
and an outside investor. For the record, the station is currently owned by the same company that
owns KIKU-TV in Honolulu and multicasts various ethnic programming as follows:
18.1 LA18
18.2 United Television Broafvasting/NHK World (Japanese)
18.3 MBC-D (Korean)

"16.46 Colorin Colorado" (canal 13)
I do not know exactly what this was, but it had to have been a children's show.
A Spanish-speaking DXer told me that Bogota's radio station "Colorin Coloradio" [sic] is basically
a play-on-words to the title shown above. He explained it well, but I'm sure, because it's a pun,
translating it to English would likely make no sense!

Re: Retro: North Carolina Friday, July 16, 1976
WXII Channel 12's "Nitelite Theater" ofered, every Friday from June 1976 to November 1979,
the Triad's only all-night television programming. It was originally hosted by Art Neal and
Zachary Gibson, but they were gone by early 1977, at which point the show aired without hosts.
Each week's presentation began with a film, followed by an episode of an old series (e.g., "The
Invaders," "The High Chaparral"), and concluded--at least in its early days--with a second movie.
The schedule for July 16 (or, to be more accurate, the wee hours of the 17th) was Ferde Grofe,
Jr.'s cult heist thriller "Day of the Wolves" (1971), followed by an episode of "The Twilight Zone,"
and concluded with another Grofe picture, his oddball western "The Proud and Damned" (1972).
I've often wondered what became of Neal and Gibson--does anyone out there know?

Re: Retro: St. Lawrence Valley Sun, July 21, 1974
No WSYR ch. 3 did not clear the weekend Tonight show. They were a big movie station, always
ran late night movies instead.
Also interesting...This was that era when CBS and ABC gave the 1030PM slot back to affils on
Sunday nights. Weird time to fill.

11:30 Movie "Halls of Anger" (I assume given that this aired on ch 3 in Burlington, this was a
syndied film?)
Halls Of Anger did air as a CBS movie in February 1974. In Hawaii it aired also on a Sunday late
night after the news at 10:30 Feb. 24. I have the CBS preview on cassette tape with a local CBS
Sunday Night Movies open. Probably a Friday Night Movie. Normal for KGMB in Honolulu. Might
have been a rerun in July.

Re: Retro: Western Ontario Sat, July 20, 1974
WJBK 2-CBS Detroit
Both delayed from Sunday.
9:00 Movie "Sandy's Jekyll & Hydes"
New Scooby Doo Movie.
1:00 CBS Children's Film Festival "The Johnstown Monster" (this 1971 British film was filmed in
Ireland)
One thing I'm curious about is why The New Scooby Doo and Saturday Superstar Movies were
listed in TVG as "Movie", while the "CBS Children's Film Festival" was listed as such?
Did TVG list who was featured?
WEWS 5-ABC Cleveland
And of course, this was the week's "Saturday Superstar Movie".

I heard of "Celebrity Dominoes", but this is ridiculous. Who was in the ring?
8:00 (6) Apple's Way
8:00 (22-29) Country Matters
According to Wikipedia's article on CIII, it was mentioned that 22 Cottam (at least) went dark
later on when an American program aired on Global. Anyone know if there's any truth to that, or
did 22 Cottam always shown alternate programming?
9:30 Movie "A Child Like Any Other" (profile of then 12-year-old Canadian singer Rene Simard)
...who was practically the Quebecois' answer to Donny Osmond.
CKLW 9-CBC Windsor
6:30 Uncle Bobby (Baton Broadcasting, who owned Toronto CTV station CFTO, was majority
owner of CKLW (CBC had the rest) and carried some of CFTO's programming here)
The CTV programming (at least those produced by CFTO) remained after CBC bought Baton's
stare and renamed the station CBET -- mainly as filler programming to replace CBC's American
network programming blacked out in Detroit.
11:30 Bandstand
Same program as "American Bandstand"?
WQLN 54-PBS Erie
As mentioned in an earlier retro thread, this was a mock gameshow series hosted by Allen
Ludden that addresses consumer issues.
By the way, did this edition have listings for WTVS? Funny that WQLN was listed and WTVS was
not.

Unfortunately not...all the listings said was that it featured local rock and soul performers.

You've got me on that one- Global's been the only station I've seen that listed ???
11:30 Bandstand

Don't think so, I think this was local...
not.
Nope, only 2/4/7/50 were listed from Detroit in the Western Ontario edition at the time.

not.
Nope, only 2/4/7/50 were listed from Detroit in the Western Ontario edition at the time.
That being said, I wonder if the Detroit Edition of TVG was sold in Windsor and Western Ontario
was sold in other parts of the region, as Windsor viewers could get almost every station from
Detroit and Toledo (whose stations were also not in this edition at the time)?
Retro: Eugene, OR, Thur. Jan. 9, 1997
A later listing than most that people post on here, but 1997 TV in my opinion is a lot better than
2011 TV!

34 After Breakfast (very short-lived I guess)
True.
This evolved from Fx's Breakfast Time (which evolved from the British "Big Breakfast").
The show featured Laurie Hibberd and Tom Bergeron and, at the beginning, a talking puppet
thing named Bob.

There were a few CBS affiliates that pre-empted "Bold And The Beautiful";
I think KIRO was one; KOIN I'm not sure about (to use stations in the
Pacific Northwest as examples). Back East, WTVT Tampa/St.
Petersburg pre-empted it before the switch to Fox; there was some doubt that
it would make it on new CBS affiliate WTSP but it did. WTSP, in fact, has always
run "Y&R" and "B&B" in pattern, which WTVT did not do.
Does KVAL run "B&B" now?

A later listing (2007) shows KVAL did play B&B.

34 The Scoop with Sam & Dorothy (this must have also been very short-lived, as Wikipedia has
no results for that show)
This show lasted half a season in syndication during 1996-97. The "Sam" in "Sam & Dorothy" is
long-time Los Angeles showbiz reporter Sam Rubin.
23 The Bradshaw Diference (don't know about this talk show either, also probably short-lived)
Topic: Heroic acts.
MGM distributed this show featuring self-help speaker John Bradshaw, which was supposed to
be a positive alternative to the talk genre's transition to sensational subjects (Jerry Springer
became a phenomenon around this time). It got very poor clearances and anemic ratings and
was also canned after half a season (in 2011, it probably would have survived a full season.
That's how much impact cable and satellite has made in the past 15 years).

Even though at the time of these listings WYAH was available on cable systems way beyond
Hampton Roads such as being on some systems in the northern Virginia suberbs in DCs, even
one or two in Maryland and even though I do remember this even today I still am not sure how
WYAH had came up with "Continental 27". However Pat Robertson could had turned WYAH into
a nationwide, OK a " continental superstation" the same way Ted Turner had done with WTBS
since the old CBN Cable Network also owned by Pat and his WYAH since well there really wasn't
much in the way of a diference between two. BUT alas..Pat never did.

CBN's broadcasting chain, which also included KXTX in Dallas and WANX (WGCL) in Atlanta
(perhaps one or two others), was known as the "Continental Broadcasting Network" -- don't
know the rationale, other than maybe the fact that he wanted to promote the stations as regular
independents, rather than Christian stations. Nevertheless, it was not music to the ears of The
Chicago Tribune's broadcasting arm, which at the time was called "WGN-Continental
Broadcasting", with the WGN calls added to disambig itself from Pat's company.
As for WYAH becoming a national superstation -- apparently, if there were plans on doing so, it
was scotched when the CBN cable channel began to include more secular programming in its
schedule, just like its aerial stations.

Unless I'm mistaken, I don't think there was a film by the title of "Buck Pirates". The film listed on
Channel 20's schedule that you're referring to might actually be the 1941 Abbott and Costello
feature "Buck Privates".

Mike's right; an IMDB search brings up no such title. Although this result (the movie you were
probably referring to) has an interesting result: "Buck Privates (1941) aka "Buck Privates".
Whatever... :

You're right...that should read Buck Privates...that's what comes when you go to work at 3am
and type stuf before going back to sleep
7:00 60 Minutes
Even though at the time of these listings WYAH was available on cable systems way beyond
Hampton Roads such as being on some systems in the northern Virginia suberbs in DCs, even
one or two in Maryland and even though I do remember this even today I still am not sure how
WYAH had came up with "Continental 27". However Pat Robertson could had turned WYAH into
a nationwide, OK a " continental superstation" the same way Ted Turner had done with WTBS
since the old CBN Cable Network also owned by Pat and his WYAH since well there really wasn't
much in the way of a diference between two. BUT alas..Pat never did.
WYAH was never available in northern VA, or anywhere else outside of channel 27's normal OTA
broadcast area. That meant out of market cable systems such as Emporia and Hopewell VA,
Roanoke Rapids NC, and a few others, but never any further than that.
Perhaps but then again why did the old Washington Star newspaper ofered listings for WYAH
when nobody could had seen them in the first place? For the record the Washington Post was
available in most in Virginia back in the day but NOT the Washington Star which was a strictly
Washington metro newspaper. I still remember the listings tothis day.

I also recall seeing listings for WYAH in "The Fayetteville (NC) Times", which is practically farther
from Hampton Roads than Washington is.

Pat did air family friendly secular shows on his stations, as long as they did not have ghosts (no
Casper). Did any shows with ghosts air on the old Family Channel?
WYAH TV 27 did have Casper in the early 70's.

I was 9 years old at the time, and recall many of these shows. I would see "Lamp Unto My Feet"
in the TV Guide, and would laugh thinking it was a funny name for a TV show. I was not raised in
a church-going home, so I had no knowledge of Bible scripture.
My father was an animator on The Bullwinkle Show, which had a one-season prime-time run
(7:00 Sunday before Disney - against the ratings champ - Lassie). It's interesting that the show
enjoyed such fame in the ensuing years considering its prime-time run was so brief.

Fran Allison appeared only once a week on this version
of the show. One hundred thirty episodes were made,
plus another 65 in 1962, for a 195-episode syndication

package that year.
The verse from which "Lamp Unto My Feet" comes is
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path."
WRAL Raleigh produced a program aimed at the hearing-impaired
(someone appeared on camera to interpret the sermon in sign
language) called "Light Unto My Path," which was syndicated
to other stations for years in the '60s and '70s.
"Lamp Unto My Feet," "Look Up And Live," and "Camera Three"
were canceled at the same time in 1979 to make room for "Sunday
Morning." Only about 26 stations were carrying the programs when
they were canceled.

It's true, "Kukla & Ollie" ran from 5 to 5:05pm. Wesley Hyatt's book, "The Encyclopedia of
Daytime Television," I believe said that it did not get much clearance due to that odd slotting!
Looking at my old newspapers online, I think the Miami affiliate ran it on delay (unknown how
many days) in a more reasonable slot.
I wish there was a kinnie out there of "Make a Face." It was one of the first TV shows I recall
seeing, but it was the kids' version in late 1962. The Milton Bradley home game of it mentions
"First Edition," but no others were made! (Hyatt's book has one promotional photo, but the set
was not in it.)

Also, if "College of the Air" = "Sunrise Semester" later, I guess the wild feed was indeed 1 pm EST.
I have read that in other "network-only" listings. IIRC, WTVX 34 in Ft. Pierce FL ran it live for a
while! (*Sunrise* Semester at 1pm? Maybe only the "Summer Semester" summertime program
was at 1pm!)

It's interesting to look back and see several hour long programs scheduled at the half-hour mark
of a given hour. Given the business of network television today, I don't think that would happen
in modern times.
Disney jumping networks is an interesting development. In the early 50s, ABC, then it's own
parent company, loaned Walt Disney $17 million dollars to build Disneyland. They also got
exclusive rights to Disney programming. Uncle Walt must've paid the loan back. I'm speculating
that if Disney had defaulted on the loan, ABC conceivably could have ended up owning
Disneyland and Walt Disney Productions, in one of life's funny little ironies.
It's also interesting (there's that word again) to compare the cartoons of Bullwinkle and the ones
shown on Captain Kangaroo. LKeller's father and the rest of the crew did a fabulous job on
Bullwinkle, needless to say. It set animation standards, especially in terms of writing and humor.
Two cartoons shown on Captain Kangaroo that I can remember were Paddy The Pelican and Pow
Wow, The Indian Boy. CBS must have gotten them cheap. They were easily two of lamest
animated shows EVER. They were both produced by Sam Singer, who was referred to as "The Ed
Wood of Animation." Paddy was basically cheap pencil drawings without color, and Pow Wow,
goes without saying, would be incredibly politically incorrect today.

Re Bullwinkle....
I liked the show, but really loved it in its later years, especially as the narrator got more
"involved". What other show could get under Durward Kirby's skin?

Cleveland's KYW-TV 3 had Mr. Ed in the first syndicated season..I also recall reading Kukla, Fran
and Ollie was aired at 9:25 AM on KYW for a time in 61-62, just after Funsville, which was from
sister station KDKA-2 Pittsburgh..Hostess was Josie Carey, already famous for her WQED
"Children's Corner" and giving Fred Rogers his start..

"Bullwinkle"'s popularity is even more interesting given that for most of its run it was on Sundays
at 11 AM on ABC, when many affiliates (especially in the South) pre-empted for church services
or "paid religion" (Falwell, Swaggart, Humbard, Roberts, etc.). Maybe the satire hit a responsive
chord, no matter the timeslot.
Was "Face the Nation" not aired during football season? It is conspicuosly absent from CBS
Sunday.

"Washington Conversation" was intended as a temporary replacement
for "Face The Nation" when the latter moved into primetime in the fall
of 1960; for some reason CBS kept it on until the fall of 1963, when
"Face The Nation" returned to its Sunday slot and has been there ever
since.

Another "cartoon" that Captain Kangaroo used to feature was "Tom Teriffic" which was very
crudely drawn. If I remember correctly, it was basically stick-figure animation. I thought it was
pretty lame as a kid.
Also: Our family had a "discussion" over whether we would watch "Bullwinkle" or "Lassie" at
7pm Sundays. "Lassie" won, much to my dismay. Bullwinkle rocks!

Not in my house. My parents appreciated the humor of Bullwinkle. No wonder I turned out like I
did.

Or, as we irreverent youngsters used to call the series, "Lamp Onto My Foot."
The verse from which "Lamp Unto My Feet" comes is
"Thy word is a lamp unto my feet and a light unto my path."

Re Walt Disney: I have read that, in exchange for financing on Disneyland
from ABC, he signed a seven-year agreement with the network (1954-61),
one which resulted in "Disneyland/Walt Disney Presents," "The Mickey Mouse
Club," and "Zorro." But when Bob Kintner moved from ABC to NBC, he approached
Disney and in efect said, when your contract with ABC runs out, bring your show
to NBC; we can show it in color, while ABC can't. Disney was on for 20 years on
Sunday nights on NBC.
Also re the "wild feed" of "College Of The Air"/"Sunrise Semester": Castleman and
Podrazik list it as airing at 1 PM until 1980, when it moved to noon for its last two
years. I'm still convinced that this was when the affiliates taped it for airing perhaps
the following morning because, other than the scheduling of the program on WTVX, I've
never seen or heard of any CBS affiliate airing it except between 5:30 and 7:30 AM.

Re: Retro: 50 Years Ago, Fall 1961, Monday-Friday Primetime
I think CBS is doing the best with their schedule and shows. Interesting that ABC has
really come on par with NBC & CBS at this time................too bad that is not gonna
last.......as about 1967 ABC is really in the gutter.
Anybody know where ABC went wrong? They sure flipped the coin between 1961 & 1967.

I never could understand why "Calvin & the Colonel" was pulled from syndication. I get the Amos
& Andy connection, but C&theC was hardly "pushing the envelope". I own some episodes on
video.
I heard it was a hit in Australia well through the 1970s; I wonder if it is still being run on some
classic-TV cable network there.
Hard to know if all 26 episodes are out there for possible DVD consumption---not that anyone
even knows what it *is* anymore!

There's an Internet TV system-TVU Networks, that has many channels..Several feature "Public
Domain" material..I've seen Calvin And The Colonel on some of these channels..The same few
episodes That are in cheapie DVD sets..I didnt think the show was bad at all, if you forget about
the A&A connection..Even with that I thought the show was pretty funny..

This was Ollie Treyz's last year as president of ABC; "Ben Casey" would be his last new hit.
The Westerns and detective shows were already sliding in the ratings; "Maverick," "Lawman,"
"Bronco," "Adventures In Paradise," "The Roaring Twenties," and "Surfside 6" would not be back
for the 1962-63 season. Treyz's end came, however, with a notorious (for its violence) episode
of "Bus Stop" with rocker Fabian as a psychopath; it merited a slap on the wrist from Sen. John
Pastore ("I saw it and I haven't felt clean since," he said. "I still have the stench in my nose.")
ABC did have a good 1964-65 season, with six new shows sticking: "Bewitched," "Peyton Place,"
"The Addams Family," "Shindig," "12 O'Clock High," and "Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea."
However, the network did not move fast enough on color; in the fall of 1965 only about 40% of
its primetime schedule was in color, as opposed to 50% for CBS and 98% for NBC. That in itself
wiped out the gains the network had made the previous year (and 1963-64 as well, with "The
Fugitive," "The Patty Duke Show," "Burke's Law," "The Farmer's Daughter," "The Outer Limits,"
"The Jimmy Dean Show," and--in January 1964--"The Hollywood Palace"); by 1967 only three
shows--"Bewitched," "The FBI," and "The Lawrence Welk Show"--were consistently in the top 30.
By that time ABC had become known as the network of fads; "Shindig" was long gone and
"Batman"
was on the bubble.

I might add that "Bewitched" was ABC's highest-rated show
up to that time, finishing its first season (1964-65) outrating
everything except "Bonanza." ABC wouldn't get its first number-one
show until 1970: "Marcus Welby, M.D."--in part because it was on
against public-afairs programming (including the then-bottom-rated
"60 Minutes") every week on CBS and once a month ("First Tuesday")
on NBC.
ABC did, in fact, have a pretty good bumper crop of new shows in
1969-70; besides "Welby" there was "Movie Of The Week," "The Brady
Bunch," "Room 222," "The Courtship Of Eddie's Father," and "Love,
American Style." 1970-71 wasn't too bad, either: "Monday Night Football,"
"The Partridge Family," and "The Odd Couple," before another slump which
lasted until 1976 and yielded only a few shows that lasted more than a
season, namely "Owen Marshall, Counselor At Law," "The Rookies," "The
Streets Of San Francisco," "The Six Million Dollar Man," "Harry O," "That's
My Mama," "S.W.A.T.," "Baretta," "Barney Miller," and a little thing called "Happy Days."
By the fall of '75, though, ABC was starting to cook, with "Happy Days," "The Six Million Dollar
Man," "S.W.A.T.," "Baretta, "Barney Miller," "The Streets Of San Francisco," and two
new shows--"Welcome Back, Kotter" and "Starsky & Hutch." Then things
really began to take of in the winter of 1976, with the addition of "Laverne
& Shirley," "The Bionic Woman," and "Donny & Marie." And ABC wouldn't look back until
"60 Minutes," "Dallas," and "The Dukes Of Hazzard"--all on CBS--were the catalysts for
putting the Eye Network back on top in 1979-80.

BTW, at one of ABC's low points (1973-74) CBS had nine of the top ten shows, led
by top-rated "All In The Family"; only NBC's "Sanford And Son" represented either of the
other networks in the top ten.

Are you sure about that? I seem to recall this running a couple of times on a local channel when
I was a kid around 1970. Very cheaply made as I recall.

I used to be on a classic cartoon forum and asked about when C&C was pulled....I first thought it
was removed at the same time as A&A, due to the men involved. Someone did say that they saw
it in the 1970s I think. As I said earlier, it was a hit in Australia for many years. Exactly the year of
removal, I am not sure.

There are a few things you guys are saying that I don't recall
at all. First, there are a couple of websites that say it ran on
Saturday mornings (actually, the show was dropped from its

Tuesday-night slot in November 1961, then brought back in
January 1962 on Saturdays at 7:30 PM) and that it was rerun
in the 1962-63 season. Here are the networks' fall 1962 Saturday-
morning schedules:
ABC 11 AM Make A Face
11:30 Top Cat
12 N Bugs Bunny Show
12:30 Magic Land Of Allakazam
1 PM My Friend Flicka
10 AM The Alvin Show
10:30 Mighty Mouse Playhouse
11 AM Rin Tin Tin
11:30 Roy Rogers Show
12 N Sky King
12:30 Reading Room
1 PM CBS Saturday News
NBC 9:30 Ruf And Reddy Show
10 AM Shari Lewis Show
10:30 King Leonardo
11 AM Fury
11:30 Magic Midway

12 N Make Room For Daddy
12:30 Exploring
1:30 Watch Mr. Wizard
And I don't see it anywhere on the networks' schedules from the
fall of 1962 through the summer of 1963.
And if it ever was syndicated, it must have been on a bunch of
stations I couldn't find because I never recall seeing the show
after September 1962.

Yah....I think Wiki said that about C&C. One fo my first TV recollections was the Make a Face/Top
Cat 1-2 punch on Sat mornings.
C&C's plot lines were kinda adult in nature (but then again, same with T.C. ---maybe just selected
episodes were singled out) for Saturday mornings.
I wonder if C&C was on Saturday mornings for ABC O&O's only. I certainly don't recall them on
Saturday mornings.
When I get home, I will look again at the Wesley Hyatt book. I'ts a good reference.
cd
Replying to my own post, Wesley Hyatt's "The Encyclopedia of Daytime Television" does NOT list
Calvin & the Colonel anywhere in it. He included pre-6pm programs for all networks, all days of
the week, including DuMont, Fox and I think UPN & WB (published 1996). He did not list prime
time shows that reran in daytime in the A-Z section, but he does have a list in an appendix of all
these shows. No C&C.

By April 1962 at the latest, ABC had five feeds of Ron Cochran's
newscast: 6, 6:15, 6:30, 6:45, 7, and 7:15 (ET); "Expedition" was
canceled after the April 23 broadcast, although host Col. John D.
Craig went on to do the syndicated "Of Lands And Seas," which I
remember being a staple on WFTV Orlando in the late '60s and early
'70s.
In the Georgia (Atlanta) edition of TV Guide, Cochran aired at opposite
ends of the feed pattern; Ch. 9 in Chattanooga aired him at 6, while
Ch. 11 in Atlanta had him at 7:15. In Raleigh, after WRAL switched from
NBC to ABC, he aired at 6:45, where Huntley-Brinkley had been.
Cochran was anchoring ABC's 11 PM newscast in the fall of 1961; when he
got the early-evening slot, Murphy Martin came from WFAA to replace him at 11.
(I still remember the creditable job Martin did helping on ABC's coverage of JFK's
assassination, and Cochran was no slouch either, given ABC's limited resources
in 1963.)
I also recall some resistance to ABC's 11 PM newscast; what is now WLS aired it
at 10 PM (CT), which meant that their local news didn't get on until 10:10, when
WBBM and WMAQ's newscasts were already in progress. And if you'll look at my
Georgia retro for July 20, 1962, you'll note that it's the only ABC program not carried
on Ch. 11 that day (nor would it ever air on WGHP High Point, NC, which was run by
a bunch of transplanted Atlantans for years in the '60s and '70s).

How about CBS and NBC in their 15 minute 'cast days? While network listings often
noted NBC at 6:45 PM ET and CBS at 7:15 PM ET, were there multiple feed times
and when?
And when ABC finally went to a half-hour (1967?), wasn't their first feed at 5:30 PM
ET for a while? I know later on they did 6, 6:30 and 7 ET.

CBS and NBC each had two feeds (6:45 and 7:15 in the
15-minute days; 6:30 and 7 after the expansion to 30
minutes); ABC had six feeds of Cochran and, IIRC, eight
for Peter Jennings starting at 5:30 from 1965-67 (I remember
Jennings, still at 15 minutes, airing in Richmond at 5:45 in the
fall of 1966) just to get the affiliates to clear the broadcast.
And for the same reason, ABC did ofer four feeds of its newscast
after it went to 30 minutes and did so until the fall of 1968, when the
5:30 one was discontinued. The 6 PM feed continued until 1982, by
which time it was carried mainly in the Central time zone at 5 PM. Also,
ABC had reached parity in the ratings by then, so the network felt it
could compete with CBS and NBC on equal terms, with the first feed at
6:30, as it remains today.
Since the advent of "Wheel Of Fortune" and "Jeopardy!" in the 7-8 slot,
the 7 PM network feed has become almost a thing of the past; I know of
six stations in the Eastern time zone (ABC in Atlanta; CBS in Baltimore,
Pittsburgh, Albany (NY), Burlington (VT), and Charlottesville (VA); NBC in
Washington) and one in the Central (ABC in Montgomery, AL) that have
continued the practice and even some of these may have changed (WKMG
Orlando tried running CBS News at 7 for awhile and gave up, returning it to
6:30 and putting a local newscast at 7).
The West Coast is the most likely place to see multiple feeds of the network news;
for example, KGO runs ABC News at 5:30, while KABC carries it at 6:30.
ABC does feed at 6 and 6:30 on weekends, as does CBS on Sunday; NBC has one
feed (6:30) on Saturday and Sunday.

In thw WTCN listings it shows.
"4:00 Record Hop (Jack Thayer)"
Same Jack Thayer who was later the GM of WNBC(AM) in New York who brought Don Imus back
from his temporary exile, and headed the NBC radio division before GE sold of its radio
properties?

Paul Sevareid was Eric's older brother; they were originally
from Velva, ND. He was also the author of "The People's
Lawyer," a biography of Eugene Rerat, whom I assume was
a prominent lawyer in the Twin Cities.
On a diferent subject related to this thread: when did Chs.
3 and 6 in Duluth swap networks, and when did Ch. 10 (ABC)
sign on?

WDIO 10 launched in 1966...3 and 6 swapped nets in October 1955, both channels maintained a
secondary ABC affiliation until WDIO came on.

It was. He had been doing a feature for kids called "Story

Corner" on Monday, Wednesday, and Friday before taking over
as host on July 18, 1955. He remained host until February 29,
1956, when the show was retitled "Good Morning!" and Will Rogers
Jr. became host. (information from Wesley Hyatt's "Encyclopedia of
Daytime TV")

...wrong timeline. It was Thayer who brought Imus to WNnnnnnnnnnBC in 1971 after the two
had worked together at WGAR Cleveland for a year (and to WGAR after a spell together at KXOA
Sacramento)...

8I 11 Fresh Prince of Bel-Air
As the show was still on NBC at the time, was WAGM's episode a new episode from NBC, or a
syndicated repeat?

In Channel 8's case, considering it's being followed by "Blossom" (that show and "Fresh Prince"
were paired on Monday nights for awhile), I would say it's a time-shifted NBC showing.
By the way... did anyone catch this?

10:30
10 12 Reading Rainbow
11 56 Love Connection
One of the "56's" must be "51" - though, I wouldn't blame one of them for airing "Love
Connection" over "Perfect Strangers," personally...
Another catch - not an error, but just interesting:

It's all good, Crain. IMHO, 56 should apologize for airing "Perfect Strangers". :

Could have been worse- WVII might have aired it, and given some of their programming
decisions over the years, it would have been no surprise. WVII- putting the K in Quality since

Then again, just about every ABC affiliate aired the series when it was on the network.
But of course, in Tampa Bay, WFTS carried "Perfect Strangers" in syndication, and continued
doing so after joining ABC.

True enough...living in an area where WVII was beamed into via cable (up til 1988/89 when the
local cableco spiked WVII and WLBZ in favor of their Motown counterparts of the bird), I can tell
you that the station's El Cheapo rep is well-earned Don't forget...this is a station that pre-records
its late news at 7pm

The 7pm hour was used for non-CBS items. If they were still cherry picking from NBC at that
point, wouldn't it have been far wiser to air "Today" instead of the "CBS Morning News"? Yeah, I
understand CBS was their primary, but one was far more popular than the other.

At one point, WAGM carried Johnny Carson and Saturday Night Live, but discarded them both for
CBS's late-night programming long before David Letterman moved to CBS.

Re: Retro: Northern & Central California Tues, Sept 14, 1954
I know these were the days just before video tape came out of the laboratory and started
showing up at the networks and big-market stations...but wouldn't you expect Channel 4 to
carry the Today Show from NBC or channel 5 to take Jack Paar's morning show from CBS on the
basis of same-morning time-shifted kinescope, starting them at 6 or 7 local time, the same way
they did at the network O&Os in Los Angeles?

Wasn't Panorama Pacific (7-9 AM on KPIX-TV) the left coast version of whatever CBS did
as a morning show in the pre-VTR days?

It's interesting that Bakersfield (way closer to Los Angeles than the SF Bay Area) is in this TV
Guide, rather than the Southern California version. I haven't traveled Highway 99 in many years,
but I believe Fresno is also geographically closer to LA.
This does make sense though, since the So Cal edition had to list at least 12 channels between
LA, Santa Barbara, and San Diego.
Also - it looks like the Sacramento network affiliates (3, 10, 13) hadn't signed-on yet. I assume
Sacramento viewers got their signals over the air from San Francisco. They must have had some
TALL antennas mounted on their roofs.

Actually Stockton's channel 13 (I believe its still licensed to Stockton) was on the air, though it
might not have covered Sac that well back then. Of course KCCC/40 was broadcasting a full
schedule to Sacramento viewers so they didn't have to look to SF for their TV needs.

And in a TVTW in my collection from 1955, by that time 13 was listed as Mount Diablo and listed
on the same page as San Francisco's commercial VHFs...

IIRC, channels 3 and 10 were in hearings. KCCC did very well until KCRA-TV (channel 3) and
channel 10 (can't remember the call) went on the air. 13 (KOVR) moved to another antenna site
closer to Sacramento, and by that time the last nail was in KCCC's coffin.

Channel 10 was KBET from sign on in 1955 until 1959,
when it became KXTV.

Posting some KSAN and KCCC listings by request, from TV This Week
9:30 US Steel Hour (no details if this was the same one that aired on 7/40/47)
I would be interested in seeing ANY program from the 40th day of July, 1947.
Should have stuck a "ch" in front of that ;D
I know this "7/40/47" thing is either a typo or a joke, but the
"U.S. Steel Hour" actually was a radio program, "The Theater
Guild On The Air," that ran on ABC from 1945 until the move to
television in 1953. "Steel Hour" moved to CBS in 1955 and is
probably best remembered for alternating with "Armstrong Circle
Theater" (which aired on NBC against "Steel Hour" on ABC from
1953 to 1955) from 1957 to 1963.
That was a reference to channels 7, 40 and 47 (7 San Francisco, 40 Sacramento and 47 Fresno).
The Steel Hour listing was how TV This Week referred to it, was there a time where US Steel
Hour and the old title ran simultaneously?

Most likely, whatever it was, Rod Serling was the executive producer and host....

Yes you are right - exactly what I mean - There was at one point a 10,000, 20,000, 25,000,
50,000, qnd 100,000 dollar pyramid...I vaguely remember the distinction between the 20,000
and 25,000 dollar ones - hard to keep track...But yes you're right on this one - thanks

Whatever Newhart show it was (I, too, am thinking it's "Newhart"), they must have had enough
faith in it to bump "Ryan's Hope" as it also aired at noon too.
Of course, in less than two weeks from this day, RH would air its last episode anyways...

Programming was sparse in the opening weeks of commercial TV in New York, the only multi-
station city at the dawn of television. It was the same in the few other markets with an operating
TV station with any kind of regular schedule; only Albany/Schenectady (WRGB) and Philadelphia
(WPTZ) were running regularly scheduled programming that amounted to more than sporadic
tests.
The names of program participants are also largely unfamiliar and don't show up in the program
listings of the postwar TV boom, with the exception of Ireene Wicker, who was a children's radio
star in the '30s, and became a children's television pioneer, blazing a trail later followed by stars
from Bufalo Bob and Bob Emery to Captain Kangaroo, Shari Lewis and Fred Rogers. Wicker
hosted the children's TV story show you see listed on WNBT in 1941, and appeared frequently on
postwar commercial network TV in the late 1940s and early 1950s before being wrongly
blacklisted in the McCarthy scare of the early '50s. She made a TV comeback on ABC in 1953
after she was found to have been among many performers erroneously accused, and the
McCarthy madness blew over...she continued to appear on ABC and later on public TV and radio,
won a Peabody award in 1961, and retired in 1975, 12 years before her passing at the age of 86.
She was one of a handful of prewar TV performers who became prominent in postwar TV, along
with actor Norman Lloyd (co-star in NBC's pioneering drama shows in 1939-41, later co-starring
in NBC's "St. Elsewhere" in the 1980s and still appearing occasionally today at the age of 97).

That's more than I thought. As to why a TV set would cost so much more than a car, Think about
it, a car is something we needed, a TV would have been something we wanted. And, I don't think
a lot of us new about TV back then, and most of us watch the radio.

Another thing..There werent many companies producing TVs..RCA, DuMont..Possibly

Philco..There were'nt many TV's to buy to begin with..Then you had WWII..After the war,
probably by late 1947-early 48 TVs were more mass produced, and eventually prices went
down..

My guess is that most, if not all of those 1000 TVs were owned by engineers and executives of
the companies that owned the stations, and bars.

I think there were possibly two things that sparked an increase in set sales. One was the 1947
World Series, which was carried in New York, Philadelphia, Baltimore, and Washington. Most
people watched in bars or in front of appliance store windows. The other was Milton Berle,
whose Tuesday-night show starting in 1948 brought throngs out to stand in front of those
appliance store windows or go to other public places where a set was available, or visit
neighbors' homes; there is the legendary-but-true story of the laundromat owner in Brighton
Beach who put in a set and a sign, "Watch Berle while your clothes whirl." In both cases, people
who didn't already own a set decided they [i]had[i] to have one; also, a number of cities began
receiving television in '47 and '48 and it was a big deal; the Atlanta Journal even counted down
the days until WSB's sign-on on Sept. 29, 1948.
But as for 1941, there's obviously not much memorable there--certainly not the big radio stars
who wouldn't make the move to television until the early '50s--and there'd be less after Pearl
Harbor: some sports (boxing and wrestling, mainly), news (a lot of newsreel footage), and lots of
civil-defense shorts for the duration.

Wow--more for a TV then a car in 1941.
That's 2011 dollars. The average sticker price of a car in 1941 was approx. $600-$1,000. Do the
math for a TV. (The really hefty price increase were for 1954 color sets.)
Also, people were waiting it out; the war caused some of the delay, but the year 1941 was the
year the 441-line standard was replaced by 525 lines @ 30 fps by the NTSC.
Some other moves that led to 1948 being the "breakout year" for TV:
-The musicians union settled with the networks for broadcasting live performances in 1948
-The FCC stopped dragging its feet on a move by CBS to put all TV on UHF (a stall tactic, to catch
up with RCA)
-Postwar supplies and factories truly gearing up from the wartime manufacturing mode, to a
consumer economy
I know that for WEWS sign on in December 1947, there was a huge section in the Cleveland
Press dedicated to Channel 5 (They were co-owned)..The other papers wrote it up big as well.

One of those "what-ifs" that people often wonder about is, "what would have happened to TV
development in the US if it hadn't been interrupted by World War II?"
This New York City listing from mid-1941 certainly showed programming in its infancy, with few
stations, and fewer hours of operation with sparse (and often very cheaply produced) program
oferings. I saw an estimate of a 1000-set installed base nationwide and I think that's too low.
Wartime trade papers estimated that over a thousand sets were offline and awaiting repairs
during the war in New York alone because parts were short and so many repair technicians were
in uniform, while many more remained in use watching the few hours of programming still
telecast each week by the three licensed stations there. There were also single stations still on
the air with a regular weekly schedule in Albany (WRGB), Philly (WPTZ), LA (KTSL) and Chicago
(WBKB). So that means there must have been several thousand sets in New York and hundreds
still in use in each of the other cities with TV between 1941 and 1946.
Would more sets have been made and sold in a continued peacetime market if such a thing had
existed in 1942 and beyond? Probably...and the prices would have come down too. An installed
base of thousands of additional receivers, growing into the millions by 1946, would have
generated more ad revenue, and freed up more money for program development and
production, a lot sooner as well. It also would have frozen a lot of the technical standards sooner
as well, including perhaps the channel lineup. There were a total of 18 VHF channels avaiolable
for assignment in 1941-45, which was reduced after the war in the re-aliognment of the VHF
band. But some of those channels might have remained on the dial, meaning no freeze in 1948
to sort out the mess that was emerging from a constricted TV band
Overall, imagine a TV service that had grown by 1946 to reach millions of homes. It would have
been as big a part of American life in 1946 as it ultimately became in 1950 and beyond.

Re: Retro: Detroit Tues, July 29, 1975
Didn't TPIR drop the "New" back in 1973?
What does the respiratory system have to do with architecture?
10:00 Sesame Street
Given the time of year, maybe they signed of during the day during the summer, as school was
not in session.
Though of course, most educational stations usually did not schedule in-school programming
before 9AM, so I don't know what exactly the scoop is here.

1. Not sure on that one...that was what the Detroit News had it listed as...
2. That was a stufup...should have read Miracle of Human Architecture.

Didn't some tv stations back in the day start out with college programs before 7:00AM? my
guess is WTVS broadcasted college programs at 6:30, singed of at 7:00 and returned to the air at
10:00AM. my Guess its a College program.

What was the daytime "Up To the Minute"? The only references I can find refer to the current
overnight CBS newscast.

It was a short-lived weekday news magazine, with each edition anchored by a 60 Minutes
reporter.

It had be to around '92 or so that KTTV stopped carrying The Jeferson regularly, and it hasn't
been seen locally since.
Batman did air on KTTV, starting from the time the 1989 Michael Keaton-Jack Nicholson feature
film premiered (like with most local stations did around that time, such as WPIX in New York)
until about late 1990s. Previously, Batman reruns aired locally on KCOP.

Re: Retro: Carolina-Tennessee Mon, Aug 3, 1964
Betty Feezor's show was of a now-defunct genre: a homemakers'
show, with cooking, sewing, gardening, etc. tips. Hers was one of
several which aired in North Carolina in the '50s, '60s, and '70s; Greensboro
had Cordelia Kelly on WFMY, Raleigh/Durham had Bette Elliott on WRAL and
Peggy Mann on WTVD, and from just across the state lines Mildred Alexander
on WTAR (now WTKR) Norfolk, and a latecomer (1967), Nancy Welch on WSPA
Spartanburg, SC, whose show lasted into the '80s.
"Amos 'n' Andy" was carried in syndication until 1966, and I think WAGA and WGHP
were among those which carried it until CBS Films withdrew it.
As for "Trailmaster," they were reruns of "Wagon Train" (notably the Ward Bond
episodes) airing on ABC at 4 PM. Ch. 26 aired them in-pattern; Ch. 40 aired them
at 4 but on delay. A number of stations carried the show on delay; I remember
WRAL running them at 10:30 AM. In fact, in the Raleigh-to-Atlanta corridor, only
Atlanta's Ch. 11 (then WAII) ran them in pattern at 4.

Re: Retro: Phoenix Network Affils--Tue Nov 10, 1964
Nov. 3 was election night, when LBJ trounced Barry Goldwater.
"TW3" had poked so much fun at Goldwater that he began buying
the Tuesday 9:30 (ET) slot on NBC for his political talks; only twice
between September and Election Day was he unable to pre-empt.
On the "TW3" broadcast of Nov. 10, one of the cast members opened
by saying something like, "The political speech normally scheduled at this
time will not be seen tonight." Unfortunately, "TW3" had been pre-empted
so often during September and October that viewers had committed to either
"Peyton Place" (ABC) or "Petticoat Junction" (CBS), and the show never
recovered the popularity of its Friday-night run from January to July 1964.
Political satire would not emerge on a regular basis in primetime again until
"The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour" and "Laugh-In" later in the '60s.

...any particular reason why KPHO-TV/5 and KAET/8 were bypassed in this listing? Certainly, the
Arizona Republic had those schedules, too...

...and I still wonder exactly how much legitimate heat there was in that "feud" between TW3 and
Jack Paar, whose show aired directly afterwards on Fridays. Perhaps Paar actually did complain
to the NBC programming brass long enough to get TW3 moved to Tuesdays? I'm pretty sure that,
of the prominent talk shows in the years after his program was cancelled, Paar never guested on
David Frost. Nor, as I recall, did he appear on The Mike Douglas Show; both Frost and Douglas
were distributed by Westinghouse, who'd pre-empted Paar's Tonight years from KYW-TV/3 in
Cleveland, Paar's old home market (he'd been an announcer for WGAR before WW2). So maybe
Paar held a grudge against both Frost and Westinghouse...

Yes it did, bit I just wanted to highlight Mountain Time Zone market schedules for ABC/CBS/NBC.
So I see where KTVK ran the ABC primetime shows of their local film chain..how about KTAR and
KOOL? Where they tape delayed, or film?

Generally, in the mid-1960s...

KTVK/ABC
Sun-Fri: in pattern on 16mm film. Sat: aired network live starting at 5:30. The rare ABC
show that was live or on tape Sun-Fri would be tape-delayed.
KOOL-TV/CBS
Mon-Fri: A mix of part of the schedule live net, part tape-delayed. There were a few shows
that aired on 16mm film from KOOL. Sat-Sun: network aired live starting at 5:30 or 5:00.
KTAR-TV/NBC
I'm not sure how they did delays, however weeknights were generally a combo of some live
net and some delay. I believe weekends were all live net. For this particular night, with Mr.
Novak being at least a week (or two) late, it could have been tape or film. UNCLE was most
likely tape, being same night.
I have seen local KTAR ads from the fall of '64 which piggybacked on the network's "NBC Week"
theme, stating "NBC Week...so big it takes two weeks!" I'm sure this meant there were some
shows airing a week late.

Running network shows live (5:30-9 PM Saturdays/5-9 PM Sundays
MT) on weekends seems to have been pretty normal throughout the
Mountain time zone in those days. I once posted some Denver listings
from 1967 which showed most everything airing right along with the Eastern and
Central time zones (although I recall KMGH delaying "It's About Time,"
which was on CBS at 5:30 MT). That, of course, would not have
been practical during the work week, but I think the ABC affiliates
did the best job of minimizing delays (IIRC, KBTV, ABC in Denver at
the time, ran all but one network show between 6:30 and 10 PM Mon-Fri;
"The Invaders," IIRC, was the only show Ch. 9 delayed past 10 PM).

I know that KTVK's "16mm film prime time" was also fed to KGUN-TV Tucson,
going back to at least the early 1960s.
Several years ago, someone posted that at one time, KTVK also had microwave
links to also feed the Albuquerque and El Paso affiliates. I don't know if this was
in place in the mid-1960s, but it was by the early 1970s--by that time KTVK had
sufficient VTR capability to run prime time on an hour tape delay. They really had
to hustle in the summer where they fed the (prime time) shows an hour later to
ABQ and ELP, then repeated playback an hour after that (two-hour delay) for the
AZ stations.

...I thought the KTVK microwave feed to KOAT and KELP was only in efect when Arizona and New
Mexico were both on Mountain Standard Time, while the feed to KGUN was continuous. When
New Mexico was on Mountain Daylight Time, which Arizona would not be, KTVK just picked up
the West Coast feed from Hollywood...

having the call letters KOOL in Phoenix never did make any sense to me anyhow

Because Phoenix is a KOOL city, while Tucson is just a wee bit KOLDer than Phoenix. ;D

I've posted this before but back in the good old days the switchboard operators at the two CBS
affiliates answered their phones they said:
"It's (KOOL) in Phoenix."
...and
"It's (KOLD) in Tucson."
In Tucson's case the call wasn't about competition with Phoenix over the average temperature
but rather the 'OLD' in KOLD represented a reference to Tucson's city nickname - "The Old
Pueblo". The original call for channel 13 in Tucson was KOPO and shared that call with a local AM

...I thought the KTVK microwave feed to KOAT and KELP was only in efect when Arizona and
New Mexico were both on Mountain Standard Time, while the feed to KGUN was continuous.
When New Mexico was on Mountain Daylight Time, which Arizona would not be, KTVK just
picked up the West Coast feed from Hollywood...
In the 1970s, KTVK always had a 10 PM news, which followed prime time 7-10.
So it was a delay of the east coast feed.
The left coast feed would have come in 8-11 in the summer--too late.

One of these may be the original series, with the other "Fred Flintstone and Friends", which

Were neither Charlotte nor Raleigh-Durham top 50 markets back then? IIRC, network affiliates in
Top 50 markets had to air first-run programming during the prime time access hour.

Couple of interesting things here....
First, the time-shift of the CBS Morning News from 7 to 9.
And, the back-to-back airings of ABC World News Tonight and the CBS Evening News. Couldn't
have been too many stations running two diferent network evening newscasts in a row.

As WBTW aired The Captain "live" at 8AM, they either tape-delayed the 7AM feed, or somehow
managed to get a live 7AM Mountain Time feed from CBS (if they had one). Most Eastern Time
stations that aired the CBS Morning News out of pattern air the Central Time feed at 8AM ET,
with the Central feed of The Captain at 9AM ET.

Cousteau specials that originally aired on the networks that were exempted from the access
rule; otherwise, affiliates in the top 50 markets were prohibited from airing of-network reruns,
although they could air new versions of former network shows like "Hee Haw" and Lawrence
Welk.
Greensboro/Winston-Salem/High Point returned to all first-run in access time that fall; WFMY
started airing "PM Magazine," while WGHP put "Joker's Wild" at 7.
And to answer a couple of questions about WBTW: another station in South Carolina, Anderson's
Channel 40, carried ABC News at 6 and CBS at 6:30. As for the CBS Morning News airing at 9,
WBTW always did this; my guess is that they taped the broadcast from 7 to 8, since I'm not sure
they could have received a Mountain feed.

There was no Mountain Time Zone feed from CBS in 1978 (I'm not sure there even is one
today. CBS affil MC ops please chime in). Just the east coast and left coast feeds, plus the
network split via WBBM-TV to feed the CBS Morning News to the Central zone at 7 CT.
All on Telco lines (though the audio bandwidth was improved to 15 kHz circa 1978).

Also, wasn't this right after the Charlotte network flips, where channel 18 lost ABC and NBC
landed on 36? Since 36 had been an independent station prior to those flips, they may also have
been able to seek a temporary waiver on the PTAR in order to allow them to use up their existing
programming contracts.
On an unrelated note -- regarding the airing of back to back network newscasts from diferent
networks on a single station, I do recall seeing this in various Montana markets in the seventies. I
don't really understand why anyone would have wanted to watch back to back CBS and ABC (or
any other combination) national newscasts, but it was a common practice in 1 or 2 station
markets back then.

That was indeed a month after the network switch in Charlotte
(Ch. 9 from NBC to ABC, Ch. 18 from ABC to independent, Ch. 36
from independent to NBC) and 36 may indeed have gotten a waiver
to play out a program contract; that fall it began a 7 PM local newscast.
Commenting on two earlier posts, one of them mine: I have to believe
that Ch. 18 carried "Fred Flintstone And Friends" and Ch. 36, "The Flintstones,"
since Ted Turner owned 36 at the time and had been carrying "The Flintstones"
even while 36 was independent.
The other, concerning WBTW's carrying CBS News at 9 AM; it's possible that
it taped the WBBM feed at 8 AM (ET), but it would not surprise me if they taped
the Eastern feed at 7 AM. I think I've asked before, rhetorically, why they
didn't follow WNCT (which, BTW, is now their sister station) and carry CBS News
at 8 and "Captain Kangaroo" at 9. That still puzzles me.

Charlotte has always been a a top 50 market, right from the beginning. I think they were in the
mid 30s in the late 80s (they're DMA 22 now). Regarding WRET (now WCNC), they did get a
waiver to continue airing reruns in local access, but I doubt it applied to Abbott and Costello. In
September of 1978 they started airing local news at 7 PM, as well as 11. It was well done, but
locals were not about to blow of WBTV news for the upstart channel 36, so the 7 o'clock news
didn't last long.

Re: Retro: Michigan Thurs, Apr 11, 1968
This edition didn't carry the Detroit Us (Detroit edition) or Marquette (Northern Wisconsin)
stations
I don't think Michigan State or the successor Northern Michigan editions ever included
Marquette or Escanaba in their listings, though at the time, WLUC was the only station in that
region (WJMN did not open until 1969).
The only thing close to a statewide TV listings magazine was editions of the Detroit Free Press'
Sunday TV magazine sold outside of the Detroit area, which had listings for almost every station
covering Michigan, except South Bend, Green Bay and Duluth.
WKZO wasn't showing Mike.

And it was one month and nine days from this broadcast day - on May 20, 1968 - that WXYZ's
daily news block and movie switched places, so that their movie now started at 4:30 P.M. (and
was retitled The 4:30 Movie - the first of the ABC stations with an afternoon movie at that time
to go by that title, preceding New York's WABC-TV by about eight months, even though WABC's
afternoon movie had been at 4:30 since Jan. 8, 1968), and their news block starting at 6.

I don't remember any Channel 12 in Kalamazoo.
Would be awfully short-spaced with WJRT in Flint.

The translator for WZZM-TV 13 on 12 was used in Kalamazoo and Battle Creek beforeWest
Michigan's other ABC station, WUHQ-TV 41 (now WOTV 41) signed on in July,1971.

ahhh.....would have been before I lived in the area then.
Still I'd have to think that 12 in Flint would cause them some problems.

To this day, I still wonder what would've happened if WKAR-Tv returned on 23 sooner than 9/
1972,and especially after TV set makers like RCA,GE,Zenith and Philco were required to put UHF
receivers into their sets in May 1964 just before the 1965 models were being made?. I think
WILX-TV would have carried all NBC daytime shows and maybe something after WILX-TV's 9am
show This Is Your Community ,yet running WILX-Tv and WMSB-TV on 10 those 13 years saved on
costs and the electric bills,but I guess NBC was balking about not carrying the full daytime
sched , and NET and it's successor PBS wanted Michigan State U to try to get it's own channel in
spite of WMSB-Tv letting WILX-Tv have the time when NBC sports had The World Series or The
Super Bowl or NBC News had like an election or convention coverage, assassination or space
shot or NBC had a special like with Bob Hope. Then WKAR returned for good in 1972 with WILX
having 10 to itself.

Considering that the channel 12 repeater in Flint is low-powered and WJRT's transmitter is in
southwestern Saginaw County, I don't think it would cause any trouble at all.
That being said, WJRT causing trouble to the repeater would be just as consequential as WISN
channel 12 in Milwaukee causing troubles -- they are probably just as far from Kalamazoo as Flint
is.

Maybe the 9AM show was the Central feed -- I've been looking through a Michigan State TVG
from 1965 that had WKNX show the Captain at 8AM, with a repeat of that episode at 9AM
(though, unlike this case, it was in this entirety).
Oddly, WKNX in 1965 also showed "Sunrise Semester" at 1PM -- the live feed that CBS affiliates
were supposed to tape for the next morning.
I need to give you the retro schedule for that year sometime.

Why was Lilias in black in white while its other PBS programs in color? I thought Lilias was always

Re: Retro: Eugene, OR, Fri. Sep. 27, 1996 6am-8pm
I grew up in the '90s so I remember a lot of these shows. I remember Sally Jessy Raphael used to
do a lot of "shocking moments caught on tape" episodes, kind of like what Maury does once in a
while. And I loved watching Where in the World Is Carmen Sandiego when I was little, although I
believe this was the show's last season on the air.
I also used to watch Real TV and Real Stories of the Highway Patrol. Shame that the Fox Reality
Channel is gone because they used to show both those shows in reruns.

Actually, this was Where in The World is Carmen Sandiego's last month on air. The month after,
Where in Time is Carmen Sandiego started on PBS.

Channel 9 Windsor launched its first full evening newscast that fall, when CBC took full
ownership of CKLW-TV and recalled it as CBET.
Did the CBC drop the CFTO/CTV programming when they took full ownership of CBET, or did they
wait a while before doing it?
Looking at old TV Guides of Michigan, CBET retained the CTV programming at least through the
early 1980s, mainly for use to fill the time when the CBC was showing American network
programming.

Notice that "Midwestern Hayride" was also on the ABC-TV Network at a summer replacement
during this time in addition to their regular show on the WLW stations earlier in the evening.

I wondered what the story was on that...

Interesting that the CBS Game of the Week (Yanlees vs. Red Sox) was seen in Columbus but
wasn't carried in either Cincinatti or Dayton, while the regional telecast of the Reds/Pirates game
was being carried on stations in all three cities covered in this edition of TV Guide.
Was there a policy back then of blacking out the national network game within so many miles of
a major league market's stadium (Dayton's within about 50-55 miles of Cincinatti), so it wouldn't
hurt either viewership or attendance of the regional team's game?

LOL! Even back then. ;D
Doesn't it seem that for the past 4-5 weeks, almost every MLB game on ESPN and TBS
has involved NYY or BOS (if not NYY/BOS)?

There was such a policy at that time and for the belief that showing such games would afect the
attendance of the home teams in those cities. As a result, none of the CBS or NBC games of the
week were shown in major league cities. That also prevented people here and in other such
cities from hearing announcers such as: Dizzy Dean, Buddy Blattner, Pee Wee Reese, Leo
Durocher, Bob Wolfe, Joe Garagiola and others at least during the regular season. This policy
changed for the 1965 Season when ABC-TV started doing the Game of the Week. It was shown in
major league cities as well as the rest of the country.

In '58 the Red Sox finished in 3rd place, 13 games behind the Yankees. The White Sox finished in
2nd. They were 10 games out. The Yankees best the Braves in the World Series.

53 KTVC Eugene (PAX, WB moved to a cable-only 100+ feed)
Channel 53 was actually KTVC's Eugene repeater, KAMK-LP (KTVC originated on channel 36 in
Roseburg).

Furthermore, the contestants did not get their prizes, either. And the board game, which the
show was to promote, flopped miserably in the US, though it had mild success in Canada, where
the board game originated.

Could be, as a short-lived version debuted a few weeks prior. And many stations, including

Got it azumanga. Where I thought Michael Young hosted Great Day America was on some
website that also described the behind-the-scenes cast. (Not IMDB) I think I forgot about Access
Hollywood, I didn't know KVAL aired it that late! For Futuresport, Wesley was the first
actor/actress listed in the grid, so I went with that. I'm very sure KMTR had Match Game '98 at
5AM, since it was a flop.

I used to love this show. KVOS would air it on the Weekend from 3AM to 5AM. I would stay up
just to watch it. "Kenny, this is a GEM MINT 10!!!"
A few years ago I went to Eugene for an Indexers Convention, and I couldn't beleive that the TV
Stations would sign of so early. I flipped the channels in vain! I went back 2 years later, and there
was some late night programming, but it really bugged me the first time. The stations would
have radio station audio and a billboard for a mattress store!

Re: Retro: Maine Tues, Aug 10, 1976
That "New Lorenzo Music Show" was a sitcom pilot with
Lorenzo as a talk-show host. But life did imitate art; he
and wife Henrietta's syndicated show lasted all of five
weeks in the fall of 1976. I wasn't too sorry to see it go,
since it allowed WSB to fill part of the hour with one of my
favorite game shows of the era: "Liars Club."

Re: Retro: Maine Tues, Aug 10, 1976
I always get a kick outta seeing WAGM-TV listings....they were the last of the 3-or-more-network
cherry pickers (even having a 4th network, Fox, for NFL in 1995).
And in this case, the prime time lineup has 1 hour from each of the "Big 3"!
cd
Close! The last cherry-picker station in the nation was KXGN-TV (CBS) channel 5 of Glendive, MT.
I believe they aired NBC programs on a secondary basis. But yeah, it was fun to read the listings
whenever I bought the Maine Edition of TV Guide in Portland.
I knew about KXGN...that's why I said "3-or-more-network"....ha HA!

12:45 Movie: "More" (something from Luxembourg about
flower children on the island of Ibiza, from '69)
The West Germans and the French had a hand in producing this film as well, which included a
soundtrack by Pink Floyd. Looking at its Wikipedia article, it has "art film" written all over it:

What would WVIR normally show on Sunday, besides the usual NBC programs?

Re: Retro: Eastern Virginia Sunday, August 8, 1976
Unless NBC had some sports programming on Sunday afternoons
WVIR was likely to show movies; "Wild Kingdom" always aired at 6.

Not that I know of, and why they ran this one three times in a
row I have no idea. But I left the Norfolk area in 1968, so somebody
who was there in the '70s might have a better idea.

Re: Retro: Phoenix Network Affils--Thu Nov 11, 1965
I seem to recall in the '70s and early '80s that the Mountain
stations followed the Eastern ones in the daytime and aired
everything two hours behind Eastern (for example, "All My
Children" at 1 PM ET but 11 AM in Denver); in fact I remember

schedules from Albuquerque and El Paso from around 1977 in
which most of the soaps were on in the morning:
ABC 10:30 Ryan's Hope (12:30 ET)
11 AM All My Children
12 N no soap--$20,000 Pyramid was on
2 PM Edge Of Night
CBS 9:30 Love Of Life (news at 9:55)
10 AM Young And The Restless
11 AM network down
12:30 Guiding Light
NBC 11:30 Days Of Our Lives
12:30 The Doctors
1 PM Another World
As for primetime, ABC's still makes the most sense, following the
Central Time version. CBS's makes some sense, since the shows
airing at 7:30 and 8 (ET) would have aired at news time in the Mountain
time zone (I think, though, that if I had been Ch. 10's program director
I would have found an earlier time for "The Munsters" and "Gilligan's Island,"
with their huge kid audiences, perhaps on Saturdays after the cartoons since
I don't recall much sports programming on CBS around 12 N MT, or late Saturday
afternoon before Jackie Gleason came on). But why would NBC have to delay
programs a week? What I see here is a scheduling pattern not unlike ABC's, so
why not air the same episodes the same night as the rest of the country?

As for primetime, ABC's still makes the most sense, following the Central Time version.
Except for having to watch the shows on 16mm film, instead of of the network's 35mm (live or
on tape-delay). The film prints looked--and sounded--putrid.
CBS's makes some sense, since the shows airing at 7:30 and 8 (ET) would have aired at news
time in the Mountain time zone
(I think, though, that if I had been Ch. 10's program director I would have found an earlier time
for "The Munsters" and
"Gilligan's Island," with their huge kid audiences...

KOOL-TV did just that--at a "cost"--starting in December 1965. Gilligan was moved to 7 (on tape),
Munsters to 7:30 (on film), and the CBS Movie to 8 (on tape). The movie, however, aired on a
one week delay! It wasn't until--IIRC--some time in 1968 that they were able to allocate four
VTRs
to net delay which meant finally that prime time was aired on tape in pattern 6:30-10 on
weeknights.
BTW, the following season ('66-'67) when Gilligan and Buddy/Terrific aired Mondays at 7:30-8:30
ET,
KOOL-TV went back to flipping that hour to 9 MT--for the entire season!
But why would NBC have to delay programs a week? What I see here is a scheduling pattern not
unlike ABC's, so why not air the
same episodes the same night as the rest of the country?
I'm guessing KTAR-TV had only two or three VTRs for net delay at the time and had to really
juggle
schedules to "make everything fit." Easy when you can just flip 7:30 ET to 9 MT, more difficult
when you couldn't. As for 8:30 ET shows being a week late at 9 MT instead of same night...?

Re: Retro: Phoenix Network Prime--Fri Nov 12, 1965
This seems to confirm what I've believed ever since we
started posting Mountain schedules: that ABC was already
delaying everything an hour and following the Central Time
version of primetime (except on weekends); interesting,
though, that the CBS station seems to be taking everything
live except for "Wild Wild West" (which would be impractical
at 5:30 MT). But why wouldn't it be possible for the NBC station
to follow ABC's lead and delay everything one hour?

It's my understanding that ABC was providing KTVK with 16mm film of the M-F prime-time line-
up so the station could air programs in pattern on the same night as aired by the network. NBC
and CBS apparently didn't do this, forcing their Phoenix affiliates to improvise. KOOL was
apparently content taking the network live (when possible) starting at 6:30 MT, and then tape-
delaying whatever was on CBS at 7:30 ET and airing at 9:00 MT. As pointed out in another post,
this sometimes resulted in kid-friendly sitcoms being aired at 9:00 MT, which probably wasn't
the best programming decision in the world, but the most practical. KTAR seemed to do a lot of
one-week delays in order to air NBC prime-time somewhat in pattern, albeit a week late.

As for why KTAR didn't just do same-night delays, my only guess is that they didn't want to
burden the MC ops with turning tapes around every 30 minutes for 3 1/2 hours every night,
which became the norm for network affiliates in the Mountain Time Zone a few years later. The
tape technology at the time might have made that difficult, as well.

The one hour delay pattern I'm familiar with (in the 2" VTR days) was to record in 50 minute
segments with a 10 minute overlap for segues:
RECORD PLAYBACK
5:30-6:20 >> 6:30-7:20
6:10-7:00 >> 7:10-8:00
6:50-7:40 >> 7:50-8:40
7:30-8:20 >> 8:30-9:20
8:10-9:00 >> 9:10-10:00
Four VTRs--three primaries and one for a record backup.

It does air on ch 2, got a bit confused given that the rest of the ND stations are on Winnipeg
cablecos on the same channel as their OTA channel...

Let me get this straight: Channel 8 from Rochester was on Channel 13 on the cable systems in
that part of Canada, yet Channel 13 from Rochester was on another channel position.
Okay. Eh?

Canadian cablecos had the US affiliates on some strange spots...in my area, we get primarily
Boston affils with ABC (OTA 5) on 5, CBS (OTA 4) on 32, NBC (OTA 7) on 11 (an impaired channel,
SRC which is locally OTA 11 is on cable 12), and PBS (OTA 2) on 4, with WSBK on a digital tier
channel. Fox comes from Sinclair in Rochester (OTA 31) on 36.

MH Cable 4/Rogers Cable 16 WNPE 18-PBS Watertown
Channel 18 is actually WNPI Norwood, which repeats WNPE (WPBS) 16 Watertown.
Cable 12 CHLF 39-TFO Toronto (39 is local OTA channel, also 17 Pembroke)
I believe at this time, it was still "La Chane", not becoming TFO until the next year. Also, channel
39 is based in Hawkesbury, with Ottawa having no local TFO signal -- with the Hawkesbury
transmitter broadcasting at 10kw, 100m HAAT, it would be difficult for this channel to be
received in Ottawa.

On Cogeco in Windsor, WDIV is on cable 5, WXYZ is on cable 8 and WWJ is on cable 15, but due
to their infinite wisdom, WJBK is on cable 7, which received cable ingress from WXYZ. And while
cable channels 4 and 9 are information-based text channels, due to ingress issues, they
somehow were given the green light to place TVO on cable 2, despite ingress from WJBK.

Can we assume these are all WAIM's famous travel programs? Otherwise known as "Film" on
less creative stations?
They were also kind of popular on WCMC-TV(now WMGM-TV, also Ch. 40) in Wildwood-Atlantic
City, NJ in the 70's. That station was listed in my home TV Guide edition, and I know "Film" was
listed for a lot of its non-network fare(they were, and still are, an NBC affil). "Film" usually meant
a local travelogue, I believe.
Until the early-1970s, WATR in Waterbury also showed alot of "Film" outside of NBC time, which
was the main reason why TV Guide only listed its network shows in the NYC edition during this
era.

Episode 106 aired in August? That seems really strange, since 106 would have been toward the
end of Season 1, so it should have aired in either October or November. I wonder if maybe they
switched the episodes around for some reason. I know that from Season 1 through 29, every
season had 130 episodes, except for Season 2, which had 145. I'm guessing they did that
because they weren't sure exactly how long the season should be, but 130 shows would take up
26 weeks, and so it would take exactly 1 year to run the entire season twice.

Maybe it's a rerun -- according to http://muppet.wikia.com/wiki/Episode_0115 , episode 115,

the closest episode available on that wiki, aired April 17, 1970, placing the original airdate of 106
at April 7, 1970.

Correct. Spots plus open/close billboards if applicable, but no full-blown network
system cues or booth announcer over credits. (ABC simply spliced in the shot of
its studio camera at the end with "an ABC presentation" title.)

3:30 Dance Party (Martindale, is this Wink?)
Sure was; in fact, the full title was The Wink Martindale P.O.P. Dance Party. This, a year after
hitting the national charts with the spoken-word "Deck of Cards"; plus, his DJ gig at KRLA radio.
According to a 1961 Billboard article, the show (which had begun in June 1960) emanated from
Pacific Ocean Park (hence, the "P.O.P.") in Santa Monica, CA. A given week drew some 3,000
teenagers.

8:30 Amos 'n' Andy
...interestingly, The Amos 'n' Andy Music Hall, the version of the radio show that had Charles
Correll and Freeman Gosden as disc jockeys, was still being heard over the CBS Radio network
(and, thus, KNXT's sister KNX Radio) in first-run; it wouldn't leave KNX and the network until a
couple of weeks after JFK was elected that November!...

The Jack Paar re-runs were shown on Fridays and were titled "The Best of Paar". These were
video tapes of previous shows with cut-in commercials replacing what had been used when the
shown was first aired. I'm not sure if the show was being televised in color at this point or not. It
changed to color somewhere about this time. If the original show had been in color then the re-
run was as well. Remember, by this time, Paar was taping his Monday through Thursday
programs earlier in the night (maybe 8:15 - 10:00 Eastern Time) so the show was accumulating a
good-sized library. The re-runs shown on Fridays were probably six to nine months old as I recall.

On the west coast, Jack Paar was shown on a one day delay basis. The Friday re-run would run
on Monday in the Pacific time zone.
This practice continued into a year or two of the Johnny Carson era.

At one point during the early years of the Paar Tonight Show (beore he started taping it in
advance), didn't the west coast carry the 11:30 - 12:30 Eastern Time portion live from 8:30 to
9:30 Pacific Time? I seem to remember that. This would have been about 1958 or 1959.

Re: Retro: Central Florida Wednesday, August 21, 1974
1:30 Jeopardy! (as Lin Bolen tries to kill the original show,
putting it against "Let's Make A Deal" and "As The
World Turns")
The show would eventually be sacrificed for an all-new game show from Merv Griffin -- "Wheel
of Fortune". Little did Bolen know that both shows would become big hits in the 1980s,
especially with "High Rollers" host Alex Trebek hosting "Jeopardy!".
8:30 Aeroeopagitica (I can't pronounce it, let alone tell
you what it was about.)
Does it have to do with John Milton and his fight against censorship?

It's a reasonable assumption that the program "Areopagitica" was about
Milton and censorship. However, TV Guide botched the spelling and provided
no details as to what the program was about.
Re "Jeopardy!"/"Wheel Of Fortune": it's my understanding that Lin Bolen
got Merv to trade the last year of "Jeopardy!" for "Wheel" (which, BTW,
was hosted by Chuck Woolery and Susan Staford when it debuted in

1975). But, although Ms. Bolen no longer appears to be on the television
scene, it's noteworthy that both shows do thrive in syndication.

RE: Dana Valery
She was a semi-regular panelist on What's My Line throughout the 70's. Besides being spending
a considerable amount of time seated between Soupy Sales and Gene Ryburn/Bert Convy/Alan
Alda/Allen Ludden, what was/is her claim to fame?

Maybe she was a Broadway actress? As the 70s version was taped in New York, I would think the
show would get their share of stage stars over the years (including Bert Convy, who acted on
Broadway in the days before "Tattle Tales").

Thanks for the info. Watching the syndicated WML back in the day, there were always a few
panelists that I couldn't help but wonder then as I do now, just who were these people?

Dana Valery is the sister of singer Sergio Franchi. In his book
on "What's My Line?" Gil Fates talks about some of the people
who filled in the middle chairs between Soupy and Arlene, some
of whom, like Alan Alda, Sandy Duncan, and Jerry Orbach, went
on to bigger things; others, like Phyllis Newman and Anita Gillette,
seemed to do nothing but game shows. Some of these guest
panelists had made a mark on Broadway: Duncan, Elaine Joyce,
Tony Roberts, Carole Shelley, and Orbach. Others came from
news programs: Gene Shalit, Melba Tolliver, and Jim Bouton (ex-
baseball player then working at WCBS as a sportscaster). And,

of course, there were people besides Phyllis Newman and Anita
Gillette who were veteran panelists on Goodson-Todman shows:
Bennett Cerf, Henry Morgan, and Joanna Barnes, as well as hosts
Allen Ludden and Gene Rayburn. And for an international flavor,
besides Dana Valery, there were people like Alejandro Rey and a
Welsh actor who appeared frequently during "Line"'s first year in
syndication, Gawn Grainger, who apparently returned home because
I don't even remember him.
It's a pretty good bet that if you had lived all your life in New York,
many of these names would have been familiar to you even then;
for the rest of us, most of them--at the time--seemed to be little
more than professional game-show panelists.

Re: Cleveland/Akron Ohio Thursday August 22, 1963
And I thought some stations in my part of the country, particularly
WSB, were pre-emption happy! But Ohio stations seemed to take
the cake, particularly in the daytime; we know how WLWT and its
sister stations bumped NBC's programming at 10 AM for Paul Dixon,
and from noon-1:30 for the 50/50 Club. But I see on this listing
pre-emptions on NBC from noon to 2 (WSB did the same thing), and
I see Tennessee Ernie Ford, "Father Knows Best," and "American
Bandstand" missing on WEWS, as well as "General Hospital" on delay.
Then I see Channel 3 pre-empting Carson (you've explained about that).
And Channel 49 appears to have two prime-time half-hours it regularly
pre-empts: 7:30 and 9:30. As for Channel 8, I see "As The World Turns"
on delay and "The Nurses" pre-empted.

An independent bunch, those Ohio affiliates.

So, WEWS carried a whopping 5 minutes of American Bandstand?
And it appears that WAKR carried 30 minutes of AB, broke for local programming for 25 minutes
and re-joined the net for 5 minutes? That's kind of insane.

Apparently, this is a "local" version taped at Fort Boyard in France, where the French version has
run since the early-1990s and still going strong. I suspect that this is a Polish version, as the
original French version (currently running on France 2) runs for over 2 hours each week.
Also, other foreign versions that were made, including a French Canadian version for TVA and an
American pilot for ABC, were an hour each, including commercials.
Any other non-French versions of Fort Boyard exist anywhere?

Hard to fathom one of Fox's most worthy affiliates signed of so early on Saturday nights a mere
thirty years ago... :

Odd that such a program aired on a Saturday... Was it an early Ice Cube vehicle? Or, perhaps,
Rebecca Black? :

You can rule out the former for obvious reasons. As to the latter, who knows?.

...also rule out a tape-delay of the ABC late-night sketch comedy Fridays, which wouldn't debut
until eight months later (did WPVI clear Fridays or shunt it of to one of the indies?)...

I see on KYW the show "Juke-Box." Was this an import? Showaddywaddy were a very popular
British band, but never hit it big across the pond. (I think they still perform, but don't hold me to
it.)

Yes it was, from the UK, where it originally was known as "Super Sonic". Previously, the US
version was known as "Twiggy's Jukebox", with intros and outros hosted by Twiggy inserted.

This had to have been The Alvin Show, from 1961-62. Alvin and the Chipmunks arrived on NBC
four years later.

According to Wikipedia (usual disclaimers apply), that's what it was. Wiki sez it was a midseason
replacement...what did it replace?

...http://homepage.ntlworld.com/e.watki...Supersonic.htm is a web page for the original

Supersonic series, which was syndicated in the U.S. in '76; http://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=383HgJQlSTQ (Suzi Quatro's "I May Be Too Young") and http://www.youtube.com/watch?
v=EPkh8Q9tatE ("Let's Call It Quits" by Slade) are from the original version of the show
(WFLD/32 Chicago ran the show in its original incarnation in 1976-77, so I suspect then-Kaiser
sister station WKBS/48 may have ran it as well)...

...were there any CBS primary/ABC secondary affiliates that carried both of these cartoons?...
6 PM Iron Horse (ABC, delay from Mon 7:30)
...I just saw a first-season Monkees episode on Antenna TV in which Davy Jones watches part of
this series on a TV. Of course, The Monkees were on NBC at the same time The Iron Horse was
on ABC that 1966-67 season -- Monday nights at 7:30/6:30 Central. (Both series were produced
by Screen Gems.) That reminded me of a late '50s I've Got a Secret on which Broderick
Crawford's secret was that he was watching his own show, the Ziv-syndicated Highway Patrol, on
a TV set on the stage that was tuned to WPIX/11 New York, which ran it directly opposite IGAS
on WCBS-TV/2. Are there any other instances of series actually showing clips of their direct
competition?...

It was taped in Gleason's bailiwick of Miami Beach. I.I.N.M., his own production company had a
hand in the making of this show. (As they did the 1968 Dom DeLuise Show which, alas, aired in
the middle of the week, as apparently CBS had put Patrick McGoohan's The Prisoner in Gleason's
Saturday time slot for the summer.)

What time was "Duel" joined in progress? I have a Syracuse TVG from the same year that has
late-night listings for WCBS -- most nights, its first listing was a movie scheduled for one time,
with a notation saying that it will be joined in progress at another time, usually in correlation of
WPIX leaving the air.
In this case, I would think the 1:30 start time is for NYC-area viewers, with the film joined
sometime after 2AM elsewhere.

I thought it was odd WOKR 13 didn't do a 6:00 news. They were very news oriented even back

Re: Retro: Southern Ohio Sat, Jan 10, 1953
Couple of notes:
Kids And Company on channel 6 and 7(WCPO) was a DuMont Show.."John" Olson was in reality
later game show announcer Johnny Olson
"Big Wheels" on 7 was a local Cincinnati Show..WEWS-5 aired a Cleveland version of the show
with the same premise, hosted by Linn Sheldon, who would go on to "Barnaby fame on
KYW/WKYC-TV and WUAB..
About the "Cleveland Boxing" on Channel 6, There was a "Live TV" Boxing program the previous
Wednesday at Cleveland Arena..And there was a "fights" listing on WEWS the same night
(Saturday 1-10-53)..This may have been filmed a few days earlier..

Re: Retro: South Georgia Monday, August 28, 1995 (GPT and Chs. 9-13)
Did the South Georgia edition ever carry the listings for WSFA-12 in Montgomery? And given
that Channels 4 & 18 from Dothan were included in this edition, isn't it a little surprising that
WDFX-34 was never added?
I still think this may have been the most complicated edition of TVG in the eastern U.S., but it's
understandable, given the large amount of real estate it covered.

Remember that for a station to be included in a particular edition
it had to cover at least 15% of that edition's coverage area. Neither
WSFA nor WDFX did this (nor, for that matter, FOX28 in Panama City);
those stations were listed in the Southern Alabama edition. Also, at
one time WJCT/7, the PBS station in Jacksonville, was listed in the South
Georgia edition but was eventually dropped.

As you can see, for many of us who could aford cable in Fairbanks in 1986, there were many
alternatives on WGN and WOR with "Soul Train" and WWF wrestling on them respectively as
well as other shows. As for "Star Games", we were given two chances to see it: At 7:30 am on
WGN and at 2:00 pm on KATN.
As for wrestling, which followed SNL on Channel 2: Besides NWA and WWF, I wonder what other
promotions had televised wrestling in 1986.

Not weird if you're in Alaska and are picking up the game live on the bird.
This was after Alaska "consolidated" (screwed up might be a better description)
its time zones in October 1983, and on April 12, 1986 it was still standard time
across the U.S. (the early-April DST start did not begin unti 1987).
Fairbanks was an hour behind Pacific and four behind Eastern, so this would
have been a 1:00pm ET start in Philly.

By 1986 the Saturday Game Of The Week start times must have had some
variances, even with a single game. Up through at least the early 1980s,
NBC almost always used a 2 ET/11 PT start time for single games from the
east and midwest (left coast games were either 3 ET/12 PT or 4 ET/1 PT).

Or maybe it was World Class Championship Wrestling from Dallas, which was also syndicated
nationwide.

Re: Retro: New York City Wed, Aug 29, 1956
As for the filmed prime-time shows, which doubtless were reruns:
- On CBS, The Millionaire episode "The Story of Brian Hendricks" (listed by IMDb as "The Brian
Hendricks Story") originally aired Feb. 8, 1956
- On NBC, the Father Knows Best episode "Margaret's Premonition" originally aired Nov. 30, 1955
- On ABC, the Disneyland episode "The Goofy Sports Story" originally aired March 21, 1956
On the local front, WRCA's Evening Theatre (which debuted June 4, 1956, after NBC shifted
Howdy Doody to a once-a-week Saturday morning schedule) would become known as Movie 4
after Feb. 3, 1957 (yes, I know this was a Sunday-night date, but it was the first day of that title
which would be applied to the weekday films after Feb. 4). WABC's Night Show debuted in
February 1956 and was that station's first step in expanding their broadcast day past prior sign-
of time of 11:30 P.M. It (and a later movie skein, The Goodnight Show which first debuted in
1961) lasted up to Sept. 14/early Sept. 15, 1963 and was replaced the next day by The Best of
Broadway which ran to fall 1970.
Also, by this point, WPIX's Night Owl Theatre had ended its run which dated back to about 1950.
As to the baseball game on Channel 11, the Yankees beat the A's 7-6.

Looks like DuMont was in it's prime at this point and almost on par with ABC.

Actually, DuMont was gone, for all practical purposes; only
one boxing show remained.
As for "Stand Up And Be Counted," it was a part-game/part-
talk show on which contestants would air their problems and
members of the audience would suggest solutions. The best
solution, as determined by a vote of the audience, won the
person who suggested it a prize. This was, I think, the last
entertainment show CBS aired in the 1-1:30 slot until "Y&R"
went to an hour in 1980.

True. At this point, WABD and sister station WTTG in Washington, DC were folded into what was
now called the DuMont Broadcasting Corporation, owner of independent TV stations. Because of
what was deemed the "failure" of the old DuMont network, the board of the company (which
acquired WNEW-AM 1130 in 1957) voted in May 1958 to change its name to the Metropolitan
Broadcasting Corporation. Four months later, on Sept. 7, 1958, WABD's calls changed to WNEW-
TV (partly to conform to the AM sister as well as an FM station on 102.7 which first took to the
air on Aug. 25, 1958; also probably as part of their "de-DuMontization" of their setup). It is
presumed that the company petitioned the FCC to change the TV station's calls in the same
month as the company name changed; if so, the process took some four months before the FCC
gave the OK for the call letter change. As late as May or June 1958, TV Guide channel listings
identified Channel 5 as "WABD (DuMont)"; from then to the Aug. 30-Sept. 5, 1958 issue it was
characterized as "WABD (Ind.)." It should be noted that beginning in July 1958 "Metropolitan
Broadcasting Corporation" was listed in the bottom of Channel 5 ads, but before the call letter
change no call letters were mentioned in their advertising. This prefigured the "Metromedia
Television" branding on Channel 5 advertising from 1967 into the mid-1980's.

I noted a lot of 5-minute newscasts, certainly not unique to NY. In this era it was basically "radio
on tv", so 5 minutes was about right.
WRCA 4-NBC New York
8:55 Herb Sheldon (partially in color)
Partially? What parts were in color and what was in B&W? Studio vs. remote,
or perhaps color film/slides and TK-11 cameras?

I don't have the magazine in front of me at the moment, but one segment was in color, with
everything else in glorious B&W...

That should have been Ch. 54, Erie's PBS station, carrying Hodgepodge Lodge because that was a
PBS kids show back in 1974. Ch. 61(WKBF) had a movie air from 5 to 7 pm that night, and I don't
see why they would stop the movie to air a children's show.

Probably from The T.A.M.I. Show! Not a Dick Clark production.

Still produced to this day as "Forum 360", previously "Civic Forum of the Air", on Time Warner
Cable's NEON local programming channel (oddly enough, position 23), and over-air via WAKR-

Though by 1974, the US networks discarded special introductions of color shows, as all programs
(other than some old movies) were already in color. Only NBC still used the Peacock, but only
before "The Hollywood Squares" and Johnny Carson.

Alex Dreier must have been at the end of his career if he was doing local news in Boston. Only a
few years
earlier he was quite visible on ABC.
He must've come to Boston by way of L.A. That's where he went (to KTTV) after his association
with ABC ended and he left Chicago where he'd been since after WWII.

Was this show on the air in 1994? Because, you know, they might have been asked to change the
name of their show, because of another show on the NBC network...
SportsVision (originally part of WPWR's programming, it migrated to cable in 1984)...
Sadly, you can say that about a lot of sports programming these days... :-X

Wasn't channel 60 two separate stations time-sharing during this time? I believe WBBS carried
the Spanish programs, while WPWR carried the English shows; this continued until sometime in
the late-1980s, when WPWR moved to channel 50.
Based on information I read while researching that, I think WBBS and WPWR shared the
channel...the info I read said the time-share ended in 1986, with WPWR moving to 50 the
following year after HSN bought ch 60.

"KCND 12-ABC Pembina"
Don't ask me how they cleared all the regulatory hurdles, but this station, which depended from
the start on cross-border Canadian ads, eventually closed down in North Dakota and somehow
migrated north of the border to Winnipeg. It became CKND, licensed by the CRTC for Channel 9
in Winnipeg, after Gordon McLendon (the legendary pioneer of U.S. large market top 40 radio)
sold out his assets to the Asper family--who in turn eventually made it part of the national
Global chain.

feeds aired on Saturdays.

I recall a Mad Magazine parody on "M*A*S*H" around this time, entitled "M*A*S*H*U*G*A", in
which at the end, Hawkeye and the gang found themselves surrounded, not by the enemy, but
by Archie Bunker and Mary Tyler Moore, in order to prop up M*A*S*H's ratings. And in real life,
it worked, and Saturday nights on CBS became appointment viewing.

...in fact, it was so bad that I don't think it's been widely rerun in Canada, even to satisfy
Canadian Content regulations...

Still the best single night prime time schedule ever, and it only lasted 1 season...those 3 shows
followed by Bob Newhart and Carol Burnett.

"M*A*S*H" soon became Fred Silverman's not-so-secret weapon;
he used it to knock down the ratings on other networks; for example,
in 1974 he put it against ABC's "Tuesday Movie Of The Week," which
didn't return in 1975; in 1975 he put it against "Chico And The Man,"
and that show never recovered its first-season strength. After Silverman
went to ABC, "M*A*S*H" ran against "Three's Company" for a time, perhaps
keeping that show from becoming number one.
I noticed a program on WBBM called "It's Worth Knowing." IIRC, that was
the original title of "Camera Three" when it was a local program on WCBS
(1953-56). Either shortly before, or at the time, it went network, somebody
asked host James Macandrew how many cameras he was using. "Three," he
said. The other person said something to the efect that he ought to rename
it "Camera Three."

If that was listed in TV in 1985, channel 60 didn't list WPWR-TV. I was 10 when WPWR-TV &
WBBS were on a time share license. WPWR-TV was on from 2:30am - 7pm, while WBBS was on
from 7pm - 2:30am. Had WSNS not gone with SIN (Spanish International Network, which
became Univision) in 1985, WBBS would have eventually gone 24 hours on 60, because WPWR-
TV was already working on acquiring the channel 50 license (at that time, it was a non-
commercial license, while 56 that they held, was originally the commercial license) & move
there. Of course, the move didn't happen until January 1987.
At the time I posted those listings, I had conflicting info as to when the change was, I've since
found out that WBBS and WPWR were sharing the frequency at the time. Ch 60 would
eventually become a HSN station after WPWR moved to ch 50.

Re: Retro: Southern Ohio Mon, Sept 8, 1958
Hard to believe how much of the CBS daytime lineup WHIO pre-empted:
"The Big Payof," "The Verdict Is Yours," "The Brighter Day," "The Secret
Storm," and (especially) "The Edge Of Night," which had vaulted to near the
top of the ratings almost from the day it started in 1956. "The Brighter Day"
was CBS's lowest-rated soap, and a move to late morning eventually killed it
in 1962; "The Big Payof" was canceled after CBS made a post-scandal rule
limiting prize winnings to $1000. But, coupled with ABC's combo of "Who Do
You Trust?" and "American Bandstand," NBC would find it tough sledding in
late afternoons until its parlay of "Another World, "You Don't Say!" and the
original "Match Game" in the mid-'60s.
BTW, September 10 marks the anniversary of the beginning of the end of
"Who Do You Trust?". That's the day in 1962 that Woody Woodbury replaced
Johnny Carson. I've said this numerous times, I know, but someone once said
that Johnny could make a slightly of-color remark perfectly acceptable; Woody
could say "hello" and make it sound like a proposition. Also, there was the problem
of Woody's dressed-to-go-fishing attire, which he never explained. Woody emceed
the show for just over fifteen months, until December 27, 1963.

Did the Madison Courier also carry the Louisville stations, since Madison is about halfway
between Cincy and Louisville and I would think Louisville stations would also be ofered on cable
there (at least at that time)? What about some Indy--even if it was only the then-indy WTTV-4
Bloomington/Indianapolis? (I would think that would have been on Madison's cable lineup at the
time, back when it had the "regional superstation" feel).

Why did it suck,FRR?.

I don't know, just a personal opinion. I don't think there was a series that I liked in prime time
and think around this time I really got into cable. I hated the comedies with those fake laugh
tracks and about the only series I watched for Miami Vice and that was pulled in '89. I haven't
watched commercial TV in several years. Between these survivor shows and this dancing with
non famous folks or so called famous folks it can't get more boring than that. Guess I'll stick to
my movie channels and Billy the Exterminator. Lol

KTVK 3 aired ABC shows in pattern, for the most part via 16mm film prints for prime
Sun-Fri, but on Sat carried the network feed. Berle was on tape so it was a one hour
tape delay on Fri, IIRC Stage 67 (Wed) was also taped of the network. Here and there
during the week, an ABC show would pop up on tape delay instead of film, but on no set
schedule--maybe the film print didn't arrive or was damaged, and KTVK had no choice
but to record.

Why would "I Dream Of Jeannie" air on a week's delay? Couldn't
Channel 12 have carried it that same night at 7 (MT)? BTW, the
last broadcast of "The John Forsythe Show" was August 29, 1966,
two weeks before these schedules. Do you know what NBC aired
on Sept. 5?
Also, do you know what time Channel 3 aired "ABC Scope"? I know
that not one affiliate in the top 50 markets (and that includes WABC)
carried it in pattern at 10:30 (ET) on Saturday nights. (Interestingly,
at the time I was living in the Greenville/New Bern/Washington, NC,
market and our ABC affiliate, WNBE (now WCTI)/12, did carry it in
pattern.)

For whatever reason, they couldn't turn 90 min. of prime around in an hour. That's interesting
that the Forsythe LTC was two weeks prior--meaning KTAR-TV 12 may have run it on 16mm film
and was only able to get said print for a 14 DB. The TV page for the following Monday did have
Jeannie/season 2 premiering at 7:00 (7 DB). I did not look backwards to Sep 5.
Channel 12 should have done channel 10's "Lost In Space flip" from Wednesdays, and run Miller
live at 6:30, delay Monkees/Jeannie to 7-8, Run For at 8 live, and Road delayed to 9-10. That
could be done with three tape machines.
Also, do you know what time Channel 3 aired "ABC Scope"? I know that not one affiliate in the
top 50 markets (and that includes WABC) carried it in pattern at 10:30 (ET) on Saturday nights.
Did not see it listed on Saturday night (KTVK 3 ran a movie at 8:30).

Retro: Birmingham/Huntsville and North Central Alabama, Thursday, 8/29/96
It's only three days before six stations in the Birmingham area change network affiliations. On
Sunday 9/1, WBRC-6 would drop ABC after over 35 years to become a Fox O & O affiliate. In
reaction, WTTO-21 and semi-satellites WDBB-17 and WNAL-44 lose their Fox affiliation; 17 and
21 would become independents until the following February when they became WB affiliates,
and 44 became a CBS affiliate, in part because Tuscaloosa's WCFT-33 and Anniston's WJSU-40
merged to become the ABC affiliate for all of central Alabama. Channel 44's CBS affiliation would
be short-lived, because in 1999 it became WPXH and became the Pax affiliate for the
Birmingham market. Both 33 and 40 had been exclusively affiliated with CBS since 1970.

Obvously this edition was distributed across the entire state?
Because you have about as much of a chance of tuning in WBNS in Beckley
as you do in Afghanistan.

A few things I must ask about these listings:
1- When did WTRF-TV (CBS) of Wheeling, WV become a primary CBS affiliate?
2- Were there any listings for channel 9 of Steubenville, OH?
3- When did WCHS-TV channel 8 of Charleston, WV switch to ABC?
4- Did WOWK-TV channel 13 of Huntington, WV have a limited signal at the time? I know today
that channel 11 of Charleston is WVAH-TV (FOX).
5- When did channel 57 of Hazard, KY switch to a primary CBS affiliation?

WSWP 9-PBS Beckley
8:00 La Grande Parade du Jazz (from a 1977 jazz festival in Nice, France: performances by Cab
Calloway and Dizzy Gillespie)
...obviously, Calloway and Gillespie were not on-stage at the same time, considering that
Gillespie stabbed Calloway during a concert of Cab's band (in which Dizzy was a trumpeter) in
1941...

WSAZ 3-NBC Huntington
8:00 Real People (...twin dwarf real estate agents)
John and Greg Rice, who were notable for not only real estate, but as infomercial hosts and even
hosts of a short-lived game show, "That [bleep] Game Show":
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rice_brothers
WCMH 4-NBC Columbus
7:30 Teamwork Makes It Happen (broadcast on all Big 3 Columbus stations, this program hosted
by Bill Hamilton and introduced by Ohio State football coach Earle Bruce looks at the United Way
and its agencies' work in Central Ohio)
What normally aired on the Columbus stations at that time?
WCHS 8-CBS Charleston
8:00 Captain Kangaroo (guests include Len Cariou)
Who at the time appeared as the original "Sweeney Todd" on Broadway, about 30 years before
Johnny Depp assumed the role on film. Is it just me, or did the Captain regularly feature
Broadway stars as guests during the 1970s?

Answers:
1. WTRF became CBS the following January(of 1980), and is still CBS today.
2. No, because of the Ch. 9 station in Beckley, I believe.
3. WCHS became ABC in 1986, trading networks with WOWK/13, which became CBS.
4. I believe it did back then, to protect other Ch. 13 stations in Lynchburg, VA and
Asheville, NC. WVAH started out in the early 80's on Channel 23, and moved to
11 around 1988.
5. I believe 57 became CBS and changed calls to WYMT in the fall of '85.

Yet TVG had listings for WCMH 4 and WTVN 6 Columbus, despite being listings for WOAY and
WVVA in Bluefield.

Weren't the Columbus stations available via cable to the Ohio communities served by this
edition? It seems to me that I remember seeing the channel lineup page from this edition from
later in the 80's that had 4,6 and 10 from Columbus designated as 4C, 6C and 10C, which by then
was the standard formatting for stations available only by cable.

The Columbus stations had a black and white bullet and later changed to "C". There was a
disclaimer at the bottom of the channel listing indicating that stations like 4, 6 and 10 were
available on cable.
WKYH remained NBC until Kentucky Central rebuilt the station in the fall of 1985, as mentioned
above, renamed it WYMT and mirrored programming on co-owned sister WKYT Lexington.
Actually, it was the Lynchburgh Channel 13 that was limited by the Channel 13 in Huntington as
they predated their air date. The Channel 11 allocation was originally Channel 23. Channel 11
was squeezed in between Johnson City, Tennessee and Pittsburgh.

WONDER YEARS??? In 1991? I swear this did not hit syndication until 1992...Also even if it was
wouldnt 9 AM be an unusual time? Most always a newly syndicated of network sitcom would
get a 5 to 8 PM weekday slot. UNUSUAL - You may be right though - Maybe the show was
syndicated earlier in some markets

Was "Entertainment Tonight" a full hour back then? :
Incidentally, the two teams on MNF actually played each other in KC this past weekend; the
result was surprisingly diferent this time around...
"Into The Night"... hosted by Rick Dees (and whose emcee, Lisa Canning, used to be on the
aforementioned "Entertainment Tonight")... I remember this late-night abortion quite well... :-X
WONDER YEARS??? In 1991? I swear this did not hit syndication until 1992... Also even if it was

My guess is that the ABC daytime run of the show was pawned of from 6 to 15...

Re: Retro: Toronto/Southern Ontario Mon, Sept 13, 1982
Good Lord! No TJW orr TTD in Kodak City,Rochester then?. Was TJW and TTD aired in Rochester
locally, aside from WOR-TV NYC 9 on cable airing it (except from 1982-84)?. Also did CBN (now
ABC Family) start airing TTD reruns from previous years then?. I know they had Bullseye and The
$50,000 Pyramid then and maybe others.

CKGN 6/22-Global Toronto
Funny that Global aired "More Real People" in prime-time, especially while "Real People" itself
was still on the air. Did they or any Canadian station air "Real People" at the time?

I was always under the impression that Ch. 6 in Deseronto
carried CTV programs at the same time as Ch. 9 in Toronto;
I noticed "Definition" at a diferent time on 6 than on 9. Was
6 a satellite of 9 or diferently-owned?

CJOH and CFTO were separately owned until 1988, when CFTO owners Baton Broadcasting
bought the station (Standard Broadcasting owned CJOH prior to then).

SCTV alumni John Candy and Catherine O'Hara were also stars of the show.
8:30 They're Playing Our Song (this was a music show, no other info was listed)
According to Peter Kenter's book "TV North", the show, which lasted only three episodes,
features songs requested by notable Canadian personalities, performed by guest singers and
musicians, including Jose Feliciano (who performed Gary Carter's favorite song, "California
Dreamin'") and Brooke Benton, who sung "More" for Gordie Howe.

Anybody know who was hosting "Reach For The Top"? I
believe that at one time Alex Trebek hosted that show,
but in 1975 he was hosting "High Rollers" in this country.
Did he commute to do both, or did someone replace him
when he came to the U.S.?

Actually, each station had their own hosts for Reach, with Trebek having hosted the Toronto
edition.

The New World deal in '94 must have been a blessing in disguise for CBS, if this is the best that
one of their affiliates in a Top 10 market can do in the 6 AM hour!
Oh yeah - Atlanta, a rare market with not one, but two unwanted network content dumping

Either it was a repeat of the match whose telecast began before the broadcasting day, or it was
one of many "interstitial" series that TBS used as time fillers.

I'm sure it was a time-filler, just like "Ton of Fun," wherein
Turner would fill five to fifteen extra minutes with a cartoon
or two. It sounds like a match between one of GCW's superstars
and a ham-and-egger that probably lasted not more than a few
seconds.

ABC shows Sun-Fri were (for the most part) via 16mm film prints aired at KTVK (zero DB),
ABC on Sat was live net. CBS/NBC on Sat/Sun were all live net.
As to the weeknight NBC schedule, I do not know if any delays were a week, or if all were
seen on the same night. CBS---live or delayed--was all same night as network.

Unusual that an O&O would bump network shows for local programming, especially
programming more fitting for PBS. So what should be on CBS that night?
KSDK 5-NBC
10:00 News
With the game slotted for 3.5 hours and scheduled at 6:30PM CT, I doubt very much that it was
JIP'd.
KPLR 11-Ind
KDNL 30-Ind
Maybe one station had the 1980-1981 episodes produced in Canada, and the other had reruns
from the 1970s syndicated version?

(1) CBS had the movie Portrait of a Stripper 8-10 CT.

(2) That's what I thought too, that would have been a 7:30 ET start- I just reported what TVG
listed.
(3) Could be...not enough of an expert on the show to know one way or the other....

In relation to KMOX(V), I was watching a YouTube video recently, and it was a 30 minute
promotional sales video (broken-up into two parts) from the CBS Television Stations group for
1981, and it seemed (at least to me) that the CBS O&Os had a bit more leeway in airing locally-
produced programming in primetime.
Take a look...

According to Baseball Reference it was a doubleheader at Montreal that night that began at 5pm
CT and the 2nd game began at 8:20pm CT. The second game ended at 11pm CT.

And my Cards would split the doubleheader--winning 3-2 in the first game but the Expos
bounced back 4-3 in the nightcap--en route to finishing with the best overall NL East record for
1981 but jipped out of the playofs in that strike-halved season (by "virtue" of finishing second in
both halves of the season--as did the Cincinnati Reds in the NL West). But thankfully the 9th
World Series victory would be looming for the following season. ;D ;D
And do you know OTOH what NBC actually aired that night, when KSDK bumped their entire
network lineup for the Cards? But then again, it could be a homework project for me that I could
answer at my local library--especially since the Springfield (IL) State Journal-Register TV insert in
'81 included listings for St. Louis, Peoria and Quincy/Hannibal stations in addition to
Springfield/Decatur/Champaign (and thus would have included the exact listings from this
schedule). ;D

According to a quick check of the Montreal Gazette listings on Google News Archive, NBC's sked
that night was (CT):

What was "Crash Island"? By the looks of that name, it has "unsold pilot" written all over it.

Not sure, but given the nets liked to burn of unsold pilots before the start of the season, I
wouldn't rule it out

Things are a bit unclear on that, as ch 5 aired ballgames in the slot most of that week...they aired
Newsbeat on Monday that week, with Friday having 15 min of news, followed by a 15 min pre-
game show.

Re: Retro: North Florida/South Georgia Mon, Sept 23, 1963
Wasn't "Opening Night" essentially a one-hour commercial for

General Foods? I know "I've Got A Secret" (Garry Moore) was
being sponsored by GF at the time, as were the Danny Thomas
and Andy Griffith shows and (I think) Lucy and "The New Phil
Silvers Show" (Silvers' show aired on Saturday nights, the others
on Monday).

Re: Retro: Kentucky Wednesday, September 22, 1971
9 PM Medical Center (Steve Lawrence makes his acting debut
as an ambitious doctor whose desire to open his own clinic
is causing him to forsake his patients.)
This is not quite accurate -- Lawrence had acted several times previously, notably in a short-lived
1968-1969 Broadway musical "Golden Rainbow", and in the 1964 film for the United Nations,
"Carol for Another Christmas", where he played the Ghost of Christmas Past in the Cold War
treatment of "A Christmas Carol".

Re: Retro: Kentucky Wednesday, September 22, 1971
I'm obviously wrong and so is TV Guide, which said that Lawrence
was making his "TV dramatic debut." If he appeared in "Carol For
Another Christmas," which, IIRC, was a drama, then you're right;
the "Medical Center" episode was neither his acting debut nor his
dramatic debut. Thanks for the correction.

Re: RETRO: GREENVILLE/SPARTANBURG/ASHEVILLE AFFFILIATE LISTINGS OCTOBER 31, 1967
That's pretty close to the schedules we had when I moved there
in the summer of '68, with a few diferences:
1. Donna Reed aired on ABC, was pre-empted on Ch. 13, and was
picked up by Ch. 7. By the summer of '68 Ch. 7 was running

"Treasure Isle" (also ABC) at 9 AM; 7 had also expanded its
4 o'clock movie to two hours and moved "Secret Storm" to 1 PM.
2. Merv was running for the full 90 minutes on Ch. 4. When Merv
moved to CBS in 1969, 4 picked up Mike Douglas; 7 would keep
Merv when he went back into syndication in 1972.
3. I think Peter Jennings was still anchoring at ABC; I don't think
Bob Young took over until January 1968 but was quickly replaced
by Frank Reynolds, and that's when the affiliate defections really
started. WLOS was one of them; in the summer of '68 it was running
"Dennis The Menace" at 4:30, "Perry Mason" at 5, local news at 6,
and "Truth Or Consequences" at 6:30. That fall it moved Mason to
4:30, local news to 5:30, and put "I Love Lucy" at 6. It would not
pick up ABC News again until the fall of 1970, just before Harry Reasoner
moved from CBS.
4. When I moved there in '68, 13 pre-empted the first half-hour of "The
Dick Cavett Show" in favor of "Hazel" reruns; Cavett was joined in progress
at 11 AM. Mike Douglas (then at 13) pre-empted "Treasure Isle" and "Dream
House" from 12:30-1:30 ("Dream House" was picked up Dec. 30, the same day
"Let's Make A Deal" moved to ABC), and 13 did not carry "One Life To Live"
at 3:30 (and wouldn't until 1973; "The Flintstones" usually occupied the 3:30 slot).
5. Because of the NABET strike, "Temptation" and "How's Your Mother-In-Law" didn't
start until December. ABC, IIRC, filled the time with reruns of "Dateline: Hollywood,"
"The Honeymoon Race," "The Family Game," and even "Everybody's Talking" (which,
BTW, was ABC's last new first-run daytime show in black and white). Otherwise,
the two new game shows would have started in October 1967. (I still like the
concept of that version of "Temptation"--if you can pick a prize showcase that
your opponents don't, you win it.)
I'm sure the information you gave is correct, and TV Guide would have had the
same, but I had to share a few memories since I moved to Greenville just a few
months later.

Wouldn't this schedule had been for Monday night, Oct. 30 rather than Halloween night--
because of the above lineup and the fact that CBS had one Monday night NFL game per season
during 1966 and '67 seasons (they moved to NBC in 1968 and 1969, and we all know the rest
starting in 1970).

"The Honeymoon Race," "The Family Game," and even "Everybody's Talking"
One episode of ABC's Chuck Barris-produced "The Family Game" with Bob Barker has made it to
YouTube in two parts:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eYBpxMWgp6w (Part 1 of 2)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Tn6Nf...eature=related (Part 2 of 2)
The contributor to this video mentioned in the intro to Part 1 that he asked Bob one time during
a TPIR taping about "TFG," and Bob refused to talk about the show.
Also a stereo version of the TFG theme made it to YouTube (artist unknown, but sounds like a
Herb Alpert and the Tijuana Brass imitator--unless it's the TB themselves and I don't realize it ).
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lMDbp...eature=related
In addition to similarities to "Art Linkletter's House Party" and "Newlywed Game," does anyone
get the feeling that "The Family Game" represented a precursor to a better-remembered "family
game" (but with a diferent format) that would premiere on the same network nine years later?
(Not to mention the font in the "Family Game" logo--kind of looks familiar IMO).

I think it was syndicated reruns of Donna Reed.

Nope. ABC was carrying the reruns at 12:30 PM;
in December 1967 they moved to 10:30 AM; ABC
canceled the show in March 1968 and gave the

time to Dick Cavett. It was at that point that
"Donna Reed Show" reruns went into syndication.
In the '60s Ch. 7 occasionally picked up ABC shows
pre-empted on Ch. 13; besides "Treasure Isle," which
I mentioned, 7 carried reruns of "Father Knows Best"
when they aired on ABC at 12:30 PM (13 did not carry
an ABC program at 12:30 from the time "Camouflage"
was canceled in 1962 until "Funny You Should Ask"
moved into that slot in December 1968). Earlier in
the decade 7 carried "Wide World Of Sports," the primetime
"Bugs Bunny Show" on Tuesday nights (not to be confused
with the primetime "Bugs Bunny/Road Runner Show" which aired
for a few weeks on Tuesdays in 1976; that was on CBS), and
Pat O'Brien's short-lived sitcom "Harrigan And Son."
Interestingly, "Treasure Isle" was the last ABC show to be picked
up by Ch. 7; arguably they could have kept "Edge Of Night" (as
WCSC Charleston did after WCBD turned it down in the move to ABC).

The V version is called "Price Is Right: vous de jouer" ("Your turn to play") -- no doubt making
light of the fact that the American version is one of the most-popular anglophone shows among
francophones.

This is the first German version of "Jeopardy!"; it would be revived later on using the English
name.

So there was an "Early Show" before the current "Early Show"? And on a CBS station, no less! :

Actually, beginning in 1951 and continuing into the 1990's, CBS-owned and -affiliated stations
had a virtual lock on The Early Show, The Late Show and The Late Late Show titles for movie
showcases (not to mention Picture for a Saturday Afternoon and Picture for a Sunday Afternoon
- titles that have not as yet been applied to any CBS show of any format). One notable exception
was Cleveland's NBC outlet, starting in the mid-to-late 1950's when it was Westinghouse-owned
KYW-TV, then after 1965 as NBC-owned WKYC-TV - which had both The Early Show and The Late
Show (and was, post-'65, the only NBC O&O to have such movie showcase titles).

According to locate tv KPTV still airs Perry Mason at noon. My 2 CBS stations WFMY and WDBJ
still air Andy Griffith at 5:30pm it has been this way for at least 26 years.

How many stations did Cannell own? Besides KPDX, Cannell also owned WUAB in Cleveland.

Corrected that for you -- many of the films on the Movie Greats Network were far from "great".

Cannell owned three stations at its peak - KPDX, WUAB, and WHNS in Greenville, SC. KPDX and
WHNS were sold to the Marriott family's First Media group and then to Meredith. Cannell held
on to WUAB and entered into a management agreement with WOIO, and that station was
eventually sold to Raycom when duopoly rules were laxed. Cannell's ties to the State of Oregon
were close, as he went to the University of Oregon.
Corrected that for you -- many of the films on the Movie Greats Network were far from "great".
Thanks for the correction. The Movie Greats Network (and its replacement, the "Best Picture
Show") aired many low-budget foreign films and B-movies. They were sold mainly to
independent stations as overnight filler. The umbrella names for these packages were to make
them more sellable to stations.

Re: RETRO: GREENVILLE/SPARTANBURG/ASHEVILLE AFFFILIATE LISTINGS JULY 3, 1968
That's the schedule I remember when I first moved to Greenville
in the summer of '68. On July 15 there would be a number of
changes on ABC and Ch. 13:
1. Ch. 13 would cut Mike Douglas to an hour in order to carry ABC's
"It's Happening" at 1:30.
2. "The Dating Game" would move to 2:30 and "Dark Shadows" back
to 4 PM on both ABC and Ch. 13.
3. "One Life To Live" would debut at 3:30 on ABC; Ch. 13 would carry
"Divorce Court" at that time for the remainder of the summer. "OLTL"
would not begin airing on 13 until the fall of 1973.
BTW, the date for your listings is July 2.

Actually, OLTL debuted on July 15, 1968. I know it was unseen in this area until 1973.

Reread my post and you'll see that OLTL debuted
July 15, 1968...but not on WLOS.
Personal note: I saw the first week of OLTL at my
grandparents' in North Carolina; WGHP carried it
in the Triad. I didn't see it again for nearly a year,
after I had moved to Birmingham; it was quite popular
there (as were all the ABC soaps). I remember something
in TV Guide around 1973 that said that another ABC soap,
"General Hospital," was one of the top three shows in
Birmingham, along with "The Price Is Right" and "To Tell
The Truth." But, again, I digress.

bpatrick, you were right. It's from July 2nd, 1968. Did you know that WGHP didn't carry "Dark
Shadows" instead they broadcast old movies?

Indeed I do. I also remember that WRAL carried "Dark Shadows"
in the mornings and ran old movies in the afternoon. That, to me,
is as bad as the time back in '66 when Norfolk's WVEC ran "Where
The Action Is" at 8 AM; the target audience wasn't home.

Re: Retro: Hartford/New Haven TV - Network Affiliates
It's weird seeing WFSB actually air CBS' "Crimetime After Primetime" lineup and not "Arsenio
Hall," as was the case before 1993. Then again, 1993 was the show's final season, so I guess it
was no surprise that Arsenio and his "dog pound" were "demoted" to WTNH in the final year.

mcsittel.com's network list (which came from a Dec '53 edition), didn't indicate a DuMont
secondary for WDEL-TV, though a Wikipedia list of affiliates and Scott Fybush's NERW Site of the
Week archives say it did...

Some thoughts...
--I never knew Channel 12 was an NBC station serving Wilmington, a separate market in those
days. I just thought it was an independent station till it became educational.
--I never knew Reading was also a separate TV market with its own CBS and NBC/ABC stations.
Both Reading and Wilmington today are part of the Philadelphia market.
--I see both WGAL Lancaster and WEEU-TV Reading don't bother to run Today, even though they
have NBC affiliation. That's odd. In fact, WGAL signs on at 9am, just after Today ends. And WEEU
signs on at 10am, only an hour later. I've never seen an old TV Guide where an NBC stations fails
to run Today.
--WDEL-TV Wilmington does run Today, then signs of at 9am and comes back on at 10am.
Couldn't they fill that hour with cartoons or public service films, which many stations used to do
to keep the transmitter on the air?
--I guess it would still be a couple o years before The Tonight Show debuts on NBC, with Steve
Allen inventing the format that continues to be used by Leno, Letterman, Conan, et al.
--Channel 43 in York is an ABC affiliate. I didn't realize ABC was part of that channel's history.
Later it became a CBS affiliate, I guess when WGAL affiliated with NBC exclusively. In fact, 43 was
one of three CBS affiliates in the Harrisburg-York-Lancaster market in the 70s and 80s, along with
15 and 21. Today 43 is the market's Fox affilate.
--I see Wheel of Fortune listed at 10 to 11am on CBS (WCAU-TV 10). That's not the game show,
right? Game shows didn't run 60 minutes in those days, nor did soap operas. I guess it was an
anthology drama show?
--I see Morton Downey as the guest on the Eddie Fisher Show at 7:30pm on NBC. That's the Irish
tenor singer, father of Morton Downey, Jr., the late talk show host.

At the time of these listings, "Steverino" was holding down late nights (under banners including
The Knickerbocker Beer Show and the first of many times and in many formats The Steve Allen
Show title was used) on NBC's New York "pioneer station," WNBT (now WNBC) Channel 4. In
that form, the show and format were developed by a station executive, Ted Cott (d. 1973). It was
a year to the month from these listings that this little local late night show (which often gave
WCBS-TV's movie skein The Late Show a run for its money, and as often as not beat the pants
out of them in the ratings) would be taken "national" and given the Tonight moniker by NBC
president Sylvester "Pat" Weaver.

Couple of possible reasons those stations didnt show "Today"
They were probably on the air only a few months..Most stations sign-on later in their first days
and weeks..
Though Today was on over a year by this time, It still wasnt certain that the show would make it.
Something related to "Today" even more odd. For a few years in the mid 1960's WSPD-13 Toledo
signed on at 7:20 AM, carrying only 90 minutes of Today from 7:30-9.No reason Channel 13
couldnt have signed on just a half hour earlier and carried the whole show (Which they
eventually did anyway)

Interesting. We still get only 15 minutes of "news" but now the other 15 minutes are
commercials.
Good point. I put a stopwatch on the 6:30 evening news one week and actually got a little less
the 15 minutes especially when you take out the "teasers" that every station always run.

Re: Retro: Phoenix Affils--Thu Oct 1, 1959
Possibly the reason some of the CBS shows don't match up with
Wikipedia is because two of them were canceled later that month.
"The Big Payof" had its last broadcast on Oct. 16; "Top Dollar" had
its last on Oct. 23. The new schedule, which was in place by mid-
November (I don't know how the 8-10 AM portion looked from Oct.
26 to Nov. 16), would have been (times are Mountain):
8 AM Red Rowe Show

Re: RETRO: CHARLESTON, SC AFFILIATE LISTINGS JUNE 27, 1966
EST. (SC did not observe daylight-saving time until 1967.)
The network feeds were the EST/CST feeds which were delayed an hour, so that programs
would air at the same clock time year-round.

The game show LET'S PLAY POST OFFICE. I guess that was some kind of dating
show and not a zip code, mail sorting, stamp licking thing.

South Carolina did indeed go on DST in '67; it was on
DST when I moved there in June 1968.
As for "Let's Play Post Office," the object of the game
was to identify a celebrity from clues contained in a

fictitious letter written by that celebrity. Each letter
was worth a certain amount of money ($5-$100); "Postmaster
of Ceremonies" Don Morrow would begin reading the letter
and contestants could buzz in with a guess at any time.
Each successive line in the letter dropped its value by five
dollars, so the faster a contestant could come up with the
right celebrity, the more money he or she added. The final
round of the day was called the "Zip Round"; Morrow would
read one-line clues; a contestant who buzzed in with the
correct identity added $25; an incorrect guess deducted $25.
The top money winner returned to play again the next day.
If something about all this sounds vaguely familiar, Merv Griffin
produced this show, which aired right after "Jeopardy!". BTW,
this was "Post Office"'s last week; it was replaced the following
Monday by the Dick Clark-produced music show "Swingin' Country,"
with Roy Clark, Molly Bee, and Rusty Draper.
And with those states still on Eastern Standard Time on a clock-time
schedule, how was WCIV able to carry Johnny Carson at 11 PM?

I'm curious as to how they could air him only for a half-hour while going to Dateline at 11:30.
Unless that was a typo. But wasn't there also a one-day delay or something?

I'd be willing to bet it's a typo and that Channel 4's
local news aired at 11, followed by Carson at 11:30.
I don't know of any market where, at the time, he
aired on a one-day delay; there were a few, a few
years later, that aired Merv's late-night CBS show the
following afternoon (and in at least one market, Louisville,
Merv was on the ABC affiliate in late afternoon).

Re: RETRO: GREENVILLE/SPARTANBURG/ASHEVILLE AFFILIATE LISTINGS DEC. 3, 1968
Quite a few pre-emptions and delays on Tuesday nights
in those days: Channel 4, IIRC, pre-empted Jerry Lewis'
variety show at 7:30 and delayed Diahann Carroll's "Julia"
to Fridays at 7 (check this for me). Channel 13 delayed
"It Takes A Thief" to Sundays at 6, and I've forgotten if
"Mod Squad" was also delayed to Sundays (I'm thinking
it aired at 5).
However, Channel 13 did, starting in January, carry "Mod
Squad" and "It Takes A Thief" in pattern, moving its movie
to Monday night, moving "Peyton Place" from 8:30 to 9:30,
and delaying "The Outcasts" to a Thursday slot opened up
by ABC. Also, on Dec. 30, 1968, it began airing "Dream House"
at 1 PM, following "Funny You Should Ask," which moved to
12:30 when "Let's Make A Deal" moved to ABC. Mike Douglas
would move to Channel 4 in the summer of '69 to replace Merv
Griffin, who was moving to CBS.

Re: Retro: Toronto/Southern Ontario Wed, Oct 6, 1971
I was too young at the time to notice.... but it's odd that CHCH 11 simulcast OECA programs with
ch. 19 all morning ???
And WUTV 29 was symbolic as to how great American independant stations were back then.
They REALLY don't even EXIST anymore!!! --- and if they do.......infomercials are their BEST
friends!! :'(

Re: Retro: North Georgia Friday, October 4, 1974
Rather amazing that no one in Atlanta was clearing To Tell the Truth at this time, isn't it? I
thought that it was available in virtually every major market in 74-75.

Channel 46 was carrying "To Tell The Truth" after Channel 11
dropped it in an overhaul of its access schedule. It didn't last
very long on 46; ironically, it returned to 11 Alive at 7:30 just
in time for the 1976-77 season (Garry Moore's last) and continued
through the Joe Garagiola period (1977-78).

"To Tell The Truth" had been paired with the Jack Narz "Concentration"
on 11 briefly in 1974; they ran back-to-back again from 1976 to early
'78, when "Joker's Wild" was put in at 7, followed by "Concentration"
("TTTT" moved to 10 AM). Then-g.m. Jef Davidson may have gotten
the idea to pair "Concentration" and "TTTT" in '76 from his experience at
WLKY: he had put "Concentration" at 7 against "TTTT" on WAVE, and
"Concentration" had been the first show to beat "TTTT" head-to-head
(the fact that Jack Narz was from Louisville probably didn't hurt). In
Atlanta, Davidson was able to carry both shows, but his big access-time
success wouldn't come until the fall of '78: "Tic Tac Dough" at 7:30.

Ch. 41 didn't carry "The Midnight Special" or Tom
Snyder's "Tomorrow," although it did carry "Tomorrow
Coast-To-Coast" when that show moved to 12:30 AM
in the wake of Carson's cutting back to an hour in 1980.

Re: Retro:Orlando, Monday, November 3, 1997
I believe it was football legend Terry Bradshaw that hosted the syndicated "Home Team" talk
program.
Weird seeing "The View" listed in a time slot other than 11 AM. I don't think people were
watching "Home Team" at that time. :P
Oh, and the 8:30 PM UPN show's full title is "Malcolm And Eddie."

Maybe, as "Alcade" is Spanish for "Mayor".

Oregon State prevailed 35-21. They would finish the season at 7-3, while Washington finished 3-
5-2. As seemingly lackluster as this game appeared, the other games of the day were not all that
appealing, either. Among the other matchups:
#1 Purdue at Northwestern (43-6, Boilermakers)
#13 Miami at #2 USC (21-3, Trojans)
#3 Penn State at West Virginia (31-20, JoePa and the boys)
#4 Florida vs. Mississippi State (31-14 Gators)
#5 Notre Dame at Iowa (51-28 Irish)
#6 Ohio State vs. Oregon (who presumably was wearing far more conservative uniforms back
then; 21-6 TOSU)
#7 Nebraska vs. Open Date
#8 Kansas vs. New Mexico (KU tied Oklahoma for the Big 8 title that year; they beat the Lobos
68-7)
#9 UCLA vs. Syracuse (The Orangemen upset the Bruins 20-7)
#10 LSU vs. Baylor (48-16, LSU)

Trivia question: who narrated "Wacky Races"?
...Jackie Gleason claimed it was Orson Welles that tagged him with his nickname "The Great
One"...
...and it was Clif "Charley Weaver" Arquette's old sidekick Dave Willock that narrated Wacky
Races. Now here's two back atcha: What was Dick (Paul Winchell) Dastardly's nickname for The
Narrator, and in what unrelated comic strip did that nickname appear soon afterwards when
applied to a diferent character?...

Dick Dastardly called the Narrator "Boopsie," later the name
of a female character in "Doonesbury."
I've also heard the story that Orson Welles gave Gleason
the nickname "The Great One." On this particular 1968
show, Welles did his magic act (I can only hope he had
better luck than he did with Lucy--of course, the Lucy

episode was scripted).
BTW, the anniversary of Welles' "War Of The Worlds" radio
broadcast is coming up Oct. 30 (appropriately, a Sunday,
as it was in 1938 when the broadcast originally aired), and
it reminds me of a story: not long afterwards, with Welles
suddenly a household word, FDR invited him to the White
House. "You know, Orson, you and I are the two greatest
actors in America," FDR told him. Welles didn't know how to
answer, so he bowed politely. (I still get a chuckle when I
see the Lucy episode with Welles and their first meeting in the
department store with Lucy wearing a diver's mask and flippers;
"My Martian broadcast was eighteen years ago (this was 1956),"
says Welles. "What kept you?")

...give that man a cheroot! ;-) ...
I've also heard the story that Orson Welles gave Gleason
the nickname "The Great One."
...in fact, Gleason told that to Morley Safer when appearing on 60 Minutes shortly after Smokey
& The Bandit was released...
BTW, the anniversary of Welles' "War Of The Worlds" radio
broadcast is coming up Oct. 30 (appropriately, a Sunday,
as it was in 1938 when the broadcast originally aired), and

suddenly a household word, FDR invited him to the White
House. "You know, Orson, you and I are the two greatest
actors in America," FDR told him. Welles didn't know how to
answer, so he bowed politely.
...Welles himself told that story in a clip on the October 1986 episode of Our World that dealt
largely with that broadcast. (Welles had died the previous year)...
...later on in the same program, Welles tells thestory of how he was on CBS that night opposite
Edgar Bergen & Charlie McCarthy (The Chase & Sanborn Hour) on NBC Red. A few days after the
broadcast, and after Dorothy Thompson's influential newspaper column about it began to
remove Welles from being American Paraiah #1, he got a letter saying, "Most of America was
listening to the dummy, and all the dummies were listening to you." In the Our World clip, Welles
attributed the letter to FDR, while most written accounts credit Alexander Woolcott with it. Then
again, who besides Welles would have remembered Woolcott by the mid-'80s? So he made it a
better story by putting FDR in it instead...

see the Lucy episode with Welles and their first meeting in the
department store with Lucy wearing a diver's mask and flippers;
"My Martian broadcast was eighteen years ago (this was 1956),"

...interestingly enough, there's a September 1957 Westinghouse Studio One downloadable at

http://www.archive.org/details/Studi...erica_Trembled about the Welles Martian broadcast --
and in it Welles' name is never mentioned outright!...

That remark about "all the dummies were listening to you" sounds
more like Woolcott or some other member of the Algonquin Round Table.
Actually, I have read things about "War Of The Worlds" that point out
that it may have been the reason there was little panic three years
later when Pearl Harbor was attacked. Since the Welles broadcast
came about a month after Neville Chamberlain allowed Hitler to take

the Sudetenland (and Hitler had troops ready to roll before an agreement
was reached), many listeners thought the Martians were actually Germans
about to attack the U.S. for real (don't forget that many people didn't read
their newspaper radio listings that morning and thought "War Of The Worlds"
was straight news). When the base in Hawaii was hit, some people thought
it was another radio prank; others figured, well, it was coming. So I think a
good case can be made that America got the jitters out of its system concerning
an attack on that Sunday in 1938.
There's also an ABC movie of the week; I think it's called "The Night America
Panicked." I'd like to see that on some cable channel this Halloween season.

I love the story (maybe apocryphal...who knows) of a Spanish language adaptation being
broadcast some years later in South America. Panic ensued, and when people subsequently
learned that they had been duped, they responded by burning down the radio station!

Did WTOM have separate listings in TVG, or only a mention on the "Channels Listed" page, like
what WWUP got (at least later on)?

Always wondered if any of these northern Michigan stations started out as seperate broadcasts
(RE; the repeaters of these respective stations up in Cheboygan and Sault Sainte Marie.) or have
they always been a simulcast from the very beginning?
My wife and I used to vacation up around Mackinac City,the U.P. and the Soo back in the 80s.
Beautiful area up there in the summertime...lots of precious family memories for me there..and
miss it dearly.

To the best of my knowledge, they were always repeaters, and were never separate stations.
That's definitely the case for WGTQ channel 8, and I believe that was also true for WTOM
channel 4 and WWUP channel 10.

Re: Retro: Puget Sound, Mon. Aug. 3, 1970 5pm-sign of
Ch. 11 and 13 were the only ones that we didn't have on cable in Vancouver at that time. KCTS
was still in B&W. I was 5 years old at this time. Thanks.

Umm.....Unless technology was somehow years ahead in Canada as opposed to the United
States, there's no way you could've had cable IN 1970 because NO ONE had cable back then
That's because it hadn't been invented yet.....

Not correct Pat. There was cable in the early 70s, but it was all local and distants with one
channel sometimes being a weather channel with a rotating camera and sometimes B/EZ music.
By the mid 70s, the HBO/Showtime/ESPN/PTL craze started and cable TV REALLY started taking
of...

What the heck?
Cable TV has been around since 1949, when it first appeared in the hills of Pennsylvania in order
to bring reception of Philly TV stations to areas that otherwise didn't get decent of air reception.
In 1970, cable TV in the US was still largely confined to rural areas with limited of-air reception
plus a few urban areas with unusual reception challenges, but it certainly had been invented.
And cable became popular in more populated areas of Canada well before it spread to the large
cities of the US.

Cable existed in the late 60's in Lake Forest Park, a suburb of Seattle. My understanding as a
young child, was this was because OTA signals could not provide service to these upper middle
class neighborhoods. So these Seattle suburbs were viewing Vancouver stations at this time, in
addition to the Seattle stations. It was rare, but it was indeed cable television. 1969. My first
exposure to it.

Yes, I should have clarified that. In 1970, we, in Vancouver had 9 channels on cable, including a
community access channel. 5 of those channels were from Washington State. In contrast, my
family had just moved from Saskatoon, where we had just 1 local channel.

For some reason TV Guide kept listing "C" in the listings for a couple years after, it wasn't until
later in the 70s when the B&W and CZ symbols were used.
And it's "crainbebo", not "craigbebo" ;D

Network prime time programming was all in color by 1968, but local programming wasn't
necessarily so.
Specific to these particular listings is the fact that one of the Seattle/Tacoma TV stations didn't
even have color capability until 1972. That station was KTVW, channel 13, and all their
programming in 1970 was still in black and white.

Aug. 26, 1972, more specifically, was when "BW" first showed up in all TV Guide editions; "CZ"
came about around the mid-'80's.

Re: Retro: North Georgia Monday, October 10, 1977
What gets me & sticks out the most is the diferent Donahue episodes. What'd they do? Send
out diferent ones for affiliates to cherry-pick from? Can't possibly be any kind of delay, could it?

Satellite delivery of syndicated shows didn't become common
until the early '80s; at this point, no doubt, Donahue's syndicator
(Tribune or Multimedia, I'm not sure which in '77) would have sent a
master tape to stations in the ten largest markets (except Chicago, where
the show aired live at 11 AM CT); they would make a
dub, then send the tape to the next station on the list given them.
The smaller the market, the more time between the taping of the show and its airing.
You would notice the same thing for Mike Douglas if the details of that day's show
on Ch. 61 had been printed.

I believe Multimedia was always Donahue's syndicator, except from 1967 into the early-1970s,
when Avco Broadcasting distributed it.

I believe Multimedia was always Donahue's syndicator, except from 1967 into the early-1970s,
when Avco Broadcasting distributed it.
Multimedia did indeed take over syndication from Avco in 1976, at which point the show's title
was shortened from "The Phil Donahue Show" to "Donahue" (which is why you'll see "Phil
Donahue" in my early-'70s retros and "Donahue" in my later-'70s-and-
beyond ones). WMAZ was owned by Multimedia but I don't know if they got "Donahue"
episodes any sooner than either WAGA or WTVC.
BTW, WAGA was one of the first non-Avco stations to pick up Donahue (in 1970) and it changed
the face of morning television in Atlanta for years; WSB was forced to move "Today In Georgia"
out of its longtime 9 AM slot and didn't find another successful show for that time until moving
to ABC and acquiring "Family Feud." WXIA, as usual, tried everything but the kitchen sink;
actually, 11 Alive's most successful attempt to compete against Phil was possibly the
"Hazel"/Dick Van Dyke combination from 1972 to late 1974.

"Hazel"/Dick Van Dyke combination from 1972 to late 1974.
Preceding WAGA in that respect was New York's WPIX Channel 11, in late fall 1969; they aired
TPDS late at night, and on that station it only lasted until early spring 1970 (apparently way
behind WNEW Channel 5's 11:30 Movie and WOR Channel 9's The Late Movie amongst the
independents). Next in New York to air Mr. Donahue's show was WNBC Channel 4, in 1971-72;
but it wasn't until 1976 when WOR picked up the program that it began to take of in the Big
Apple (which led, in 1977, to WNBC getting the show back for the next two decades). I myself am
curious to see which was the very first non-Avco station to air the series.
By the time Multimedia took over syndication, Donahue had been taping in Chicago for two
years, and his prior "home" base, Dayton's WLWD Channel 2, had become WDTN.

Was Channel 4 an NBC primary? I notice they carried
John Cameron Swayze instead of CBS's Douglas Edwards,
and the network whose newscast a station carried usually
gives a pretty good idea of its primary affiliation in those days
(exception: WTVD, an NBC primary from 1954 to 1956, carried
ABC's John Daly).

I'm surprised at the number of stations with multiple affiliations
that carried "Voice Of Firestone" instead of "Arthur Godfrey's
Talent Scouts" at 8:30 Monday nights. Here in North Carolina,
both WFMY and WBTV, CBS primaries, did this, although by
November 1953 WFMY was carrying Godfrey, since WSJS (now
WXII), the new NBC affiliate, had "Firestone."
I'm also surprised that Channel 4 didn't carry "Art Linkletter's
House Party."

I should have indicated it in the original post, but WBEN actually was CBS primary, due to its
relationship to WBEN-AM 930, which was one of the first CBS radio affiliates in
1928..WBEN/WIVB has never changed its primary afiliation all these years..

...but WBEN Radio did not keep its CBS affiliation very long, By 1938, and the night of the Orson
Welles "War of the Worlds" broadcast, that affiliation had moved to WKBW. I have also owned
an aircheck of Glenn Miller's last CBS "Chesterfield Moonlight Serenade" broadcast before he
went into the Army Air Corps, which was in 1942, and at the end of the program a local utility
announcer IDs WKBW...

Except for two things.....
1). WKBW-TV wasn't even on the air yet (And even when it did , it eventually wound up affiliating
with ABC instead of trying to lure CBS away from WIVB. Look it up on Wikipedia for yourself if
you'd like)
2) I think broadcasters learned from the lesson the backlash that the War Of The Worlds
broadcast created by the 1950s (At least I would hope so!) ;D

...do you have some sort of reading comprehension problem? I specified *radio* and did not
make any reference to WKBW-TV...
2) I think broadcasters learned from the lesson the backlash that the War Of The Worlds
broadcast created by the 1950s (At least I would hope so!) ;D
...and what are you talking about *here*? Any "backlash" was quickly diminished by Dorothy
Thompson's popular syndicated newspaper column about the broadcast a few days afterward...

Interesting how there was nothing listed for Channel 17, WBUF-TV, which I believe was on the air
by the late fall of 1953. This was almost two years before NBC bought it in that failed experiment
to see if a network could make an O&O on UHF a viable way to extend its fleet of big-market
stations..an experiment it abandoned in 1958 when WKBW-TV was two months away from sign-
on on VHF Channel 7.
I believe the early, pre-NBC-ownership Channel 17 carroed shows from all four existing networks
that WBEN-TV didn't want, at least until WGR-TV was up and running on Channel 2 the next year
as a split ABC/NBC affiliate, and later ABC primary.

Accoring to the Bufalo Broadcasters webpage, WBUF signed on in August 1953. TV Today
was based in Sandusky, Ohio and primarily covered the Cleveland and Detroit/Toledo
Markets..Bufalo listings were on one page in the back and Youngstown stations (27, 73) on two
pages after Bufalo..It might have been a case of a new station not being established yet, and
having to add more pages to the magazine that they decided to hold of on carrying channel 17
listings. Might also explain why 4 carried no DuMont shows at this point..

And of course there was another UHF on the air in Bufalo on that Monday in November: WBES
59 had signed on in September, lasting not even three months before collapsing in on itself in
mid-December 1953. The Bufalo Broadcasters have more (with a few erroneous mentions of
"channel 58") here:
http://www.bufalohistoryworks.com/b...s/hist_uhf.asp
Given how shaky both WBUF-TV and WBES were, it's no surprise they weren't listed in out-of-
town publications!

Another WAGM posting, hooray!
Noticed that if the ABC ballgame was not gonna air (rain, perhaps?), their backup would be CBS
programs. I wonder how ABC & CBS felt about that arrangement....

Good question, given that the station was primary CBS and cherry-picked from the other two

I've also noticed that WAGM carried a lot of the syndied programs from WABI...did WAGM pick
up CBS OTA from Bangor, or was it just a coincidence that WAGM and WABI carried syndied
programming in tandem?

Presque Isle and Bangor are 134 air miles apart, so I doubt WAGM-TV would've picked Bangor up
over the air. I know that they get NBC and ABC from Bangor on cable to this day.

Unless for viewing within the station newsroom as is the case in every newsroom, I don't see
how that's possible since WAGM is a CBS affiliate with a Fox duopoly

Do you have the CBC schedule for Monday, Oct. 9--Canadian Thanksgiving Day (and of course
Columbus Day in the US)? Just curious what the holiday schedule for CBC (and/or if you also
have CTV) looked like back then--would there have been a lot of special holiday programming on
that day?

Re: RETRO: ORLANDO - 04/05/1999
Wow, 6 really liked Kilborn's old show - they ran it twice every night? God bless 'em!
And I'm assuming that the news 35 ran in the overnight hours is national. If they were going to
put out a local efort at that hour (which seems to be the norm now) they may as well have done
it during the prime morning hours, as opposed to early morning news leading into "Bullwinkle".

7:30 Pizzazz (tranquility tank/computerized singles bar/dog flies in open plane/interviews with
Wayne Gretzky and Susan Lucci)
CFTO 9-CTV Toronto
8:00 Live It Up (Liz Grogan visits a Liars Club meeting in NB (must have been the Legislature ;D)/a
Vancouver pub that brews its own beer/testing lipsticks/auction tips/interview with Rita
MacNeil)
Apparently, these two shows were Canadian knockofs of "PM Magazine".
CICA 19-TVO Toronto
11:30 Witness to Yesterday (pt 1-Donald Sutherland as Dr. Norman Bethune)
This was likely the 1977 TV movie "Bethune", which Sutherland starred as a Canadian doctor
who worked as a medic for the Chinese Communist forces in the early-20th Century.
Interestingly, while in Spain, Bethune developed mobile medical units similar to M*A*S*H units
-- in which Sutherland was part of in the 1970 film of that same name.
More on Norman Bethune here:

Maybe they buy their time on more than one station, like most other Christian programs such as
"Jim Bakker" and "The 700 Club".

Whazzup wit' dis? (Please excuse my penchant for street slang.) If WHEC was an NBC affiliate,
what are they doing airing CBS soaps? Was this a typo?
That was a typo, ch 8 ran NBC's soaps from 1-4.
So what aired in the noon slot?

Was the movie disclaimer included with this edition? If so, did any CBUT repeaters outside of the

Re: Retro: Atlanta/Chattanooga/Macon Saturday, October 13, 1962
I just found out that the Welk show airing on Ch. 13
was a one-week delay, and that Sylvia Livoti sang
"Whoop-de-doo," the song Milton DeLugg and His Band
With a Thug played when the winner was announced on
"The Gong Show." There's also a YouTube clip of her
from 1963, where she sings with Charlie Parlato.
I don't know if the in-pattern show on Chs. 9 and 11
had a specific theme, which is why I don't provide
details other than the one-hour EDT/EST delay (EDT
saw it live; EST on tape).

Re: Retro:Cleveland, Monday, October 17, 1966
I guess you could say October 17, 1966 is a red-letter day,
since "Squares" became a virtual institution during its 15-year
original run. Paul Lynde, BTW, did not become the permanent
center square until 1968.
Also, I notice ABC News running for 25 minutes (6:30-6:55)
on WAKR. How could this be; ABC had a 15-minute newscast,
not expanding to 30 minutes until January 1967?

The way the Plain Dealer TV Page was set up, Channels 3, 5, and 8 were together in a "Grid"
format while 25 and 49 were listed separately elsewhere on the page..49 didnt have anything
scheduled at 6:45...Probably a mistake on 49's part..

Re: Retro: Missouri Mon, Oct 20, 1962
You've posted Saturday listings and Oct. 20, 1962, was indeed a Saturday.
You mention that, for Lawrence Welk, there's something that says "tape-delayed
from an earlier live telecast." As I mentioned on my Georgia retro for Oct. 13, 1962,
Welk aired live at 9 PM (EDT), daylight-saving time was still in efect, and the show
was taped for those states on standard time (Georgia being one of them, and apparently
Missouri and Oklahoma were on Central Standard Time, two hours behind EDT-- I know
Missouri was two hours behind EDT on June 24, 1950, when Harry Truman went home to
Independence, only to learn early that evening of North Korea's invasion of South
Korea). "The Fight Of The Week" and "Make That Spare" also aired live in those states
on daylight time, and on tape in those on standard time.
ABC had apparently decided to keep the same schedule for the whole country as much
as possible, although I suspect Welk, the fights, and bowling all aired live in California
from 6-8 PM (PDT).

But Oct. 20, 1862 was a Monday--and 1962 was the second year of the centennial of the Civil
War. ;D
And it would be only the following Monday, Oct. 22, that JFK spoke to the nation about the
Soviets' nuclear missiles in Cuba (IIRC Oct. 20 may have been the day that JFK, while on
campaign stops, was summoned back to the White House on the missiles under the guise of
having "a cold").

Yes, in '62, OK was on CST. In MO, the southwestern part of the state was on CST, while
St. Louis observed CDT. I believe Kansas City was also CST.

Re: Retro: Cleveland, OH, Thur. Sept 6, 1956
Several points of interest..
The TV 8 Romper Room was hosted by Pat Ryan Dopp. By 1958 the program would move
to WEWS-5 hosted by "Miss Barbara" Plummer for a 13 year run..
Ron Penfound, who hosted the 8:55 news, was Captain Penny at Noon on WEWS
You forgot 11:30 AM on your schedule. "Window" was a 5 minute program.
Fun Farm's Mary Ellen (Sussex) would move within a few weeks to Tampa , Florida, where she
would host Kiddie shows on WTVT-13 till 1964..She passed away in April 2011..
On Channel 21, "Hal's A Poppin" host Hal Fryar later moved on to Indianapolis where, as "Harlow
Hickenlooper" he hosted kids shows on WFBM-6 from 1960-72

This might have been the short-lived Merv Griffin game show "Headline Chasers" (syndicated in

Wheel of Fortune = grand slam
Jeopardy = inside-the-park homerun

Headline Chasers = bloop single
Odd to see Channel 5 do their local evening news at 6:30 PM as opposed to the customary 6 PM
time slot. Did Wapner beat 2 and 4 in the ratings?

7-12-53 ABC Weekend Special "Choose Your Own Adventure: The Case of the Silk King" (pt 1)
I wonder how that played out? The book version of "Choose Your own Adventure" starts out at
the beginning, then at at a point, it mentions that if you want to do one action, turn to page so-
and-so; otherwise, turn to another page. Kind of hard to do for a non-interactive TV program.

Ok--what was the story of WNEM? They only broadcasted football, "Sisters", and "SNL" from
NBC.

According to Castleman and Podrazik's "The TV Schedule Book,"
"Face The Nation" aired at 11:30 AM (ET) on CBS, and "Meet The
Press" at 12:30 PM (ET) on NBC in fall 1973. But, this being the
South, football and religion come first, and there were some local
news and public afairs programs on Chs. 2, 5, 12, and 13 that
weren't about to be bumped, lest the FCC disapprove (they aired
at noon). With both network interview shows airing earlier in the
day (along with ABC's "This Week" and "Fox News Sunday") that
would not be an issue today.
Also note that Ch. 9 pre-empted ABC's "Issues And Answers" for
University of Tennessee football highlights. I rest my case.

KTBN-40 "Religious Programming" was no more than 5 minute filler shows to complete the half
hour in which "Behind The Scenes" aired..By the time TBN acquired WDLI-17 Canton, Ohio in
1986 these shows were:
:15 Arthur Blessitt, Evangelist who carried a wooden cross all over the world
:20 A Financial or Health Advisor/preacher (dont remember his name)
:25 Efrem Zimbalist Jr. Reading Scripture
May have been the same in 1982..Have no way of knowing..

Very interesting...WML and TPiR on their schedule. Assuming it's the syndicated version (TPIR),
that's the latest I've ever seen the show air. WCBS-2 (NYC) aired it on Saturday nights in summer
of '81, but I never saw it aired anywhere in 1982 until now. The original half-hour syndie version
stopped production in 1980.

Apparently, these were the original 1970s syndicated versions. I recall WLIG in Long Island also
carrying these shows and the Bill Cullen $25,000 Pyramid around this era as well.
By the way, did KDOC show the syndie Price is Right all week long, or just once a week like it
originally was?

1986 these shows were:
:20 A Financial or Health Advisor/preacher (dont remember his name)
I think it was John Avazini with his "Principles of Biblical Economics" program. Oh, and the
syndicated Price Is Right on KDOC was weekly (I remember them still airing those What's My Line
reruns as late as 1985).
By the way...I should point out that TBN now has the iTBN Video Player (http://www.itbn.org)
where you can watch programs and other stuf from the TBN networks anytime you wish, no
matter where in the world you're in (unlike the commercial networks)! The Classic section there
has a growing number of vintage Praise The Lord episodes (no Behind The Scenes yet), as well as
an episode of Anyone But Jesus from 1976!
Perhaps Mississippi Public Broadcasting should follow TBN's suit and launch an online video
player of their own so that current generations could watch hours of their material (especially
Clyde Frog, Tomes and Talismans, Mississippi Roads, The Write Channel, Pennywise, Quorum,
and other stuf from their archives). They can't be sitting there collecting years and years of dust
forever!
Then again, that would cost millions of dollars, so an MPB Classics subchannel would be the best
option.

Do you happen to have an Atlanta weekday schedule from the fall of 1980? I can't seem to find
one anywhere on the web.

11:30 Bob And Ray & Jane, Laraine and Gilda (and Willie Nelson,
rerun of a special with the original female "SNL" regulars;

skits include an interview with a man 11 inches tall and an
expert on dragons)
And the most memorable skit from this special, at least IMHO, was a rendition of Rod Stewart's
"Do Ya Think I'm Sexy" by Bob, Ray, Jane, Gilda and Laraine.

Hold up - two stations in the same city carried this show? And within a half-hour of each other,
no less?
It was a program produced by a religious organisation, and is given to stations to show free of
charge, enabling stations to fulfill their public service quotas. Some organisations would ofer
their show to more than one station per market, especially (and usually) if one of the stations is
a religious station (which were becoming to be commonplace in the late-1970s).

Back in those days, Mac McGarry was hosting both the Washington and Baltimore versions. He
initially left the Baltimore It's Ac in 2001, but returned a year later when his successor, Paul
Barry, apparently did not do a good job hosting (just like here in Cleveland; when Adam Shapiro
left the Cleveland version [known as "Academic Challenge"] in 2006, his successor, Danita Harris,
did not do a good job, and so Jason Nicholas took over in 2007). Mac then left the Baltimore
version again in 2003, and Dave Zahren has been the host there since then.

Thanks for posting. I always enjoy seeing schedules from this era for ABC stations, since they had
so much time to fill in the morning.
I found the same day's listings from the Des Moines Register, and will post stations in eastern
and central Iowa.

I'm also partial to the ABC stations' listings in this period,
not only because they had all that time to fill in the morning,
but because so many of them aired the network news at 6 (ET)
and did their own thing at 6:30.
Which brings me to a small correction I need to make: in my
parenthetical comment on "Anything You Can Do" on WGHP, I
said that Gene Wood had moved to "Beat The Clock" by that time.
Actually, he had moved from announcer to host after Jack Narz left;
the expense of traveling back and forth between his home in LA and
Montreal, where "Beat The Clock" was taped, was eating into Narz's
salary big-time. Nick Holenreich had become "Beat The Clock"'s announcer
when Wood took over as host. As I'm sure you all know, Wood never hosted
another game show after "Beat The Clock"; his real fame came as announcer
on "Family Feud" in particular, and on other shows produced by Mark Goodson
(such as "Card Sharks") and, occasionally, other companies.
Wood once said that he left "Anything You Can Do" because producer Don Reid
had assured him that all the stunts were safe, which was not the case. For those
who remember the show (or those who don't), it consisted of stunts related to various
occupations, some associated with men, some with women. A team of three men took
on a team of three women, and each gender picked a stunt from the other gender's side
of the board. One woman picked "newspaper carrier" and was required to ride a bicycle
down a narrow yellow line and, without veering from the line, throw a certain number of
newspapers at targets within a 90-second time limit; should she veer from the line she'd
have to start all over again. Well, she lost control of the bicycle, fell to the highly-polished
floor, and (IIRC) broke a wrist. Wood also mentioned having to step in and prevent other
injuries.
Most of the episodes of "AYCD" I've seen are the ones with Wood (I could never find the
show on any other station), although I have seen one with Don Harron. IMHO, Harron was
far better on "Hee Haw."

Re: RETRO: EASTERN & CENTRAL IOWA, FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, 1972
Were there no listings in this issue of the DM Register for other markets serving Eastern Iowa:
Davenport/Rock Island/Moline (Quad Cities IA/IL) or even Quincy/Hannibal? In the old days of
their Sunday TV insert they also included those markets' stations in those listings.

No, it did have Omaha, Sioux City, Sioux Falls, Mankato, Mason City-Rochester-Austin, and St.
Joseph, MO. But that was way too much typing.
I don't know if the Register had another edition of the Sunday TV insert that included the Quad
Cities and Quincy-Hannibal in 1972. In the 60s, it included all those markets. I know they
eventually had a western Iowa edition that had Des Moines and everything west, and an eastern
Iowa edition with Des Moines and everything east.

Thanks for the additions. The Register's listings were rather cryptic, I tried to fill them
in where I could.
10:30 Movie (according to an earlier Iowa thread from 1973, all CBS stations in this region
carried "The CBS Late Movie". If so, tonight's movie was ""Land Raiders".)
I forgot about checking the movies. In 1972, the CBS Movie apparently wasn't very popular...
Movie: 2-WMT
"Call Me Madam" (1953)
Movie: 8-KRNT
"The Oscar" (1966)
WOW/6 in Omaha and KMEG/14 in Sioux City also ran local movies.
And at 11:00 on IPBN:
Horror Film Festival: 11-KDIN
"Curse of the Cat People." (sounds like one of the movies KCRG ran on their Saturday "Creature
Feature.")
Toy That Grew Up: 12-KIIN r'The Bells;" Lionel Barrymore,
Boris Karlof.

Some CBS affiliates were known for pre-empting "The CBS Late Movie" on Friday nights to air a
local movie instead. Some of those affiliates delayed the Friday "CBS Late Movie" to Saturday or
Sunday nights.

Whenever I had seen those older Register Sunday TV inserts (up to at least the '90s), it was
always the "eastern Iowa edition" that included DM, Cedar Rapids/Waterloo,
Kirksville/Ottumwa, plus Mason City/Rochester/Austin, Dubuque, and LaCrosse, WI in addition
to the forementioned Quad Cities and Quincy/Hannibal.
Could there have also been a "third edition" of the DM Register TV insert just for the immediate
Des Moines area? I had seen one from early 1990 (when my parents had to travel that way one
weekend and picked up a Sunday paper there) that only had Des Moines/Ames channels plus all
the cable channels (with DM cable system channel numbers). Or were the statewide listings
briefly dropped for a time, then restarted (my next encounter with the Register TV insert wasn't
until about '92 and it was back to the statewide listings--eastern Iowa that is).
Now IIRC the Register TV insert is just limited to Des Moines/Ames market channels and selected
cable channels.

Papers that had wide circulation over a vast area usually had more than one edition of their TV
magazine -- one for the metro area and another for out-of-town areas. I know that the Louisville
Courier-Journal, Detroit Free Press, Detroit News and the Toledo Blade have (or had) such
editions.
The Courier-Journal had a statewide TV magazine edition with listings for all Kentucky stations,
plus out-of-state stations in areas bordering Kentucky. The Free Press' statewide TV magazine
had listings for all Michigan stations, plus Toledo, Sarnia, and SSM Ontario, but not South Bend,
Chicago or Green Bay.
Until the 1970s, the St. Petersburg Times used to have three editions of their TV magazine -- one
for the Tampa Bay area, another for northern and central Florida (with listings for Orlando,
Gainesville, Jacksonville, Tallahassee, Panama City and Pensacola, but not Albany, Dothan or
Mobile), and one for south Florida (with listings for Sarasota, Fort Myers, Palm Beach and
Miami). Around the mid-1970s, the Times discontinued listings for out-of-area channels other
than Sarasota, Gainesville and Orlando.

Yes, and the western Iowa edition had DM/Ames, Ft Dodge, Mankato, Sioux City, Sioux Falls,
Omaha, St.Joseph.
Could there have also been a "third edition" of the DM Register TV insert just for the immediate
Des Moines area? I had seen one from early 1990 (when my parents had to travel that way one

Yes, I think there was a Des Moines area edition, although it may not have started until the 80s
when they started listing a lot of cable channels.
But this still doesn't explain the odd one from 1972 that listed all of those markets except Quad
Cities/Quincy-Hannibal. With the way the listed each station separately, maybe there just room
for all but five stations, and maybe there was another edition that listed everything except
possible Omaha and St. Joseph?
I did find a Sunday TV section from 1968,and it lists all of the stations, but there's less room for
"program highlights."

Old Time Gospel Hour was Jerry Falwell, wasn't it? If so, it was usually a hour, so probably the
8:30. I don't know what the 9:30 might be. KTVO sometimes had some local religious shows.

Re: RETRO: NYC Metro - Friday, Oct. 27, 1972 (Part 2: UHF's & Connecticut TV)
I don't think I've ever seen a station, particularly a CBS affiliate,
pre-empt as many daytime shows as Ch. 3 in Hartford did; I see
"The Price Is Right," "Gambit," "Where The Heart Is," "Edge Of
Night," "Secret Storm, "and "Family Afair" missing from their lineup--
half the CBS daytime lineup at the time--and two other shows, "Joker's
Wild" and "Search For Tomorrow" on delay. What was up?

I.I.N.M., when Channel 3 was WTIC, they did a lot of pre-emptions or delays on a lot of CBS
programs, not just in the daytime. A movie on Monday nights instead of Gunsmoke; Here's Lucy
aired on Saturdays just before Jackie Gleason . . . but then, since CBS was A-number-one in those
days, obviously the network didn't seem to raise much of a fuss at the time . . .

I see that NBC channel 30 of New Britain/Hartford wasn't listed yet. That was part of the reason
the old channel 20 of Waterbury was NBC at the time. Channel 30 didn't upgrade their analog
signal until 1978. They didn't even reach New Haven efectively (if at all) until then. Channels 26
(New London), 59 (New Haven) and 61 (Hartford) didn't even exist yet! They signed on in 1986,
1995 and 1984, respectively. In fact, the old channel 30 had W59AA, a low-power translator out
of West Haven, for the purpose of filling in some of those reception holes in New Haven.
As far as I know, channel 30 was also NBC, but its low power and the terrain of the region kept it
from being a full-market affiliate, hence the reason why channel 20 was NBC.
And Channel 30 didn't get listed in the New York Metro edition of TV Guide until summer 1979,
after the increase in power, change in station ownership, and call letter change to WVIT.

10 At Home
CFPL's At Home was hosted by Hope Garber, the mother of actor Victor Garber. Hope Garber
apparently appeared in a 1991 episode of Who's The Boss.

CKCO's News Desk was sponsored by Alka Seltzer, and even had "Speedy" in the program title

A note on the Globe's listings...the listings first ran a log format for Bufalo, Toronto and Hamilton
stations, then followed by individual listings for the out-of-area channels, in alphabetical order of
city (and in order of channel number if there was more than one channel in that city).

The listings also missed some stations that did reach Southern Ontario with their signals, like
WHEC-TV in Rochester (Channel 10, then the CBS affiliate), which is still on the air today
although it's now an NBC affiliate while WROC is linked with CBS. They also missed daytime
programming on WBUF-TV, NBC's O&O on Channel 17 in Bufalo, which did carry the whole
network schedule starting with the Today Show--at least until the network shut it down in
September of 1958, tiring of the losses, gave its affiliation over to Channel 2, and gave the
Channel 17 license away to the local public broadcasting council to help it get a station started
the next year.
A listing from seven months later would have shown not only NBC programming moved over to
WGR-TV on Channel 2, Channel 10 in Rochester represented, and Channel 17 among the
missing, but ABC represented full-time in Western NY on WKBW-TV Channel 7, which signed on
just after Thanksgiving in 1958.

Not necessarily...I have a January '59 Toronto Telegram supplement which lists many of the same
channels that the Globe did, but still no sign of ch 10 Rochester-only ch 5 was listed from the
Kodak City...Anyone wanting listings for ch 10 in Southern Ontario would need to refer to TVG's
Lake Ontario edition...

I like the way you added the b,c,d's into the schedule. It makes group listing like this one
(instead of individual station listings) easier to follow. I think I'll do the same next time I

9 PM NBC Movie: "Exodus" (Part 1 of 2, concludes tomorrow at 9 PM)
12 M Tonight Show (joined in progress; Eddy Arnold subs for Johnny,

and Liberace is a guest)
Are you sure Carson was a JIP? The network movie ran 2:30, followed by :30 for
local news--it seems that Carson would just start at 12 AM ET and air in full.

I have to admit I asked myself the same question; seems like
"The Tonight Show" would have aired 12 M-1:30 AM. However,
I'm giving what was in TV Guide's listing; also, it had "Take Five"
at its normal 1 AM (just before sign-of) on WLEX. Could be an
error on TV Guide's part but I don't have another edition for the
same date to check. Tuesday night the movie ran for only two
hours and Johnny was on at his regular 11:30 PM time.

I found the October 27 1968 Des Moines Register Sunday TV Magazine. Of course this is central
time, all the NBC affiliates except one ran the 8:00 NBC Movie, followed by 10:30 Local News,
11:00 Tonight, and none had any listing after 11:00.
The one exception was WOC-6 in Davenport. Here is their listing:
8:00 Movie (no title given)
10:00 News, Sports
10:30 Lock-up
11:00 Tonight
12:00 A. Hitchcock
So apparently NBC only fed a 60-minute Tonight show that night.

I'm somehow convinced that TV Guide's statement of "joined in

progress" was a typo; I see no reason why, if the movie was
scheduled to run until 11:30/10:30, followed by 30 minutes of
local news or whatever, the network would then join "The Tonight
Show" in progress. No, I also think it was an hour show that night.

Channel 9 during its RKO days was known for their unusual programming, I'm sure necessitated
by counterprogramming against Channels 5 and 11, but this has got to be the most bizarre...Los
Hermanos Coraje, a Spanish-language novela (I vaguely remember the show) and news in
Spanish (Noticias) from noon-1pm, Monday thru Friday? I guess they were providing the
Latino/Hispanic community with programming as Channels 41 and 47 did not sign on until later
in the afternoon. Plus a news show at 5 to boot! You gotta love these independent stations'
schedules from New York and LA (as well as other large markets) from the early 60s through the
late 80s. Wbhist, if you have more of these schedules from the late 60s through the mid-70s, I
(and I'm sure many others) would love to see them. Thanks for listing!

As far as WOR's Spanish-language block, I distinctly remember the bumper slide with multiple
"noticias'" stacked together one on top of another, with Channel 9's logo superimposed in the
center, laid out like their slides-only news bumper used at sign-on and sign-of. But prior to airing
Los Hermanos Corraje, WOR had run another Spanish-language novela, Nino.
But there have been, in the past, late '60's/early '70's schedules from NYC and environs put forth
by yours truly. My criteria have to do with historical significance (TV or otherwise) and certain
other factors (for example, knowing the names of various movie umbrellas used by the local
stations at the time of such schedules, or changes to certain protocols in TV Guide). To wit:
- Friday, Nov. 22, 1963 (Network O&O's) and (Other Stations) (never mind that it was earlier
'60's, everyone knows the significance of that date) :'(
- Thursday, April 4, 1968 (NYC VHF's) and (UHF's and Connecticut TV) (another date whose
historical significance is well-known) :'(
- Friday, Jan. 31, 1969 (Network O&O's), (Other VHF's) and (UHF's)
- Wednesday, Feb. 5, 1969 (Network O&O's), (Other VHF's) and (UHF's)
- Saturday, May 31, 1969 (NYC VHF's) and (UHF's and Connecticut TV)
- Monday, Sept. 28, 1970 (Network O&O's), (Other VHF's) and (UHF's)
- Saturday, Aug. 26, 1972 (New York Area VHF's) and (NY Area UHF's & Connecticut Stations)
Plus this little schedule on another site:
- WOR-TV for Monday, Jan. 1, 1973

That's right, I remember those schedules from 1963 (JFK) and 1968 (MLK) as well as all those
others you posted. My mistake. I was wondering if you had schedules from late spring-early
summer 1973 (Watergate) and a comparison of what aired on NYC/Connecticut stations as
opposed to their regular schedules like the JFK and MLK dates you posted. As for that 1973 WOR
schedule on that other site I could not find it; I got this message:
"Sorry, the link that brought you to this page seems to be out of date or broken."
Thanks for your help!

Re: Retro: Buenos Aires, Argentina Sat, Oct 28, 1989
Pretty surprising schedule: I never ever watched "Waiting for the hearse" (Esperando la carroza)
on ch. 7 in my life, that film has been always shown on ch. 11 since I can recall (I was born in
1989). Also strange they showed it on a 3-hout timeslot, probably the ad bulk was huge.
Anyways, thanks a lot for posting this! By any chance do you have any Sunday schedule?

Clemente is a famous character of a daily comic strip features in the Clarn newspaper:
http://www.caloi.com.ar/clemente/clemente.htm
'Batman Club' was a show hosted by Guillermo Mazzuca where they would play reruns of the old
Batman series with assorted features in between like games and trivia.

This was Saturday but there were no news shows that I recognize. Question for Eduardo... Do
stations in Buenes Aires today have seven day news operations? Are stations today 24 hours?
Are there more than five local channels now?
I also know many residents of Buenes Aires trace their heritage not to Spain but to Italy, hence
the RAI show.
It also seems there weren't that many U.S. programs... I saw ALF, Hunter (a cop show), Batman
but that's about it. I know several Buenes Aires radio station broadcast all American/British
music even though all the announcements and commercials are in Spanish. So I'm surprised
there aren't that many U.S. shows, dubbed or subtitled into Spanish.

I'll happily answer your questions, Gregg. By 1989 there were some American shows still on TV,
however their popularity began to vanish around that time, since cable got more and more
famous. People preferred to watch American shows with subtitles on cable than watching them
dubbed on terrestrial TV, where you have to cross you fingers for the network to buy anymore
more than the first season of any given series. Because of that, over-the-air TV nowadays hardly
has anything American, save for Simpsons reruns.
About the news, the only channels with newscasts on weekends are channel 7 (normally a 30
minute showing on both Saturdays and Sundays around 9 PM) and ch. 2 (7 PM).
About 24-hour operation, channel 11 and 13 keep closing their programming everyday. Ch. 11
does so around 2/2:30 AM, coming back at 6 AM on weekdays and 9 AM on weekends. Ch. 13
closes around 1 AM and comes back at 5:45 AM on weekdays and 8 AM on weekends. Channel 7
still closes down once a week (early Monday morning), while ch. 2 and 9 are 24-hour operators.
We still have only 5 channels in Buenos Aires, but many parts of the country (including my town)
have digital terrestrial TV. Unfortunately, while the video quality is excellent and there are new
channels that aren't even seen on cable, the only network included on this service is channel 7,
so we still have to resort to analogue TV (or DirecTV, in my case) to watch the other channels.
I hope I had answered your questions. 8)

Re: RETRO: ALABAMA - GEORGIA, SAT. OCT. 16, 1965
I found Dozier in south Alabama. Somehow I thought it was around Birmingham. It's closer to
Dothan.

A few typos.
NOON 12M MOVIE should be 32M
1:30 8M MOVIE should be 8s (that's when they began broadcasting for the day)
2:00 26M should be 20M
It appears that 4 Dothan (CBS) aired some ABC cartoons in early
afternoon, but not in color.

This is the edition that became the Southern Alabama Edition;

same stations plus a few that signed on later (like WLTZ Columbus,
WDHN Dothan, WMBB Panama City).
WDIQ was part of what is now Alabama Public Television, and I can
never recall it deviating from WBIQ Birmingham's schedule, although
it might have occasionally and I just don't know about it.
Dozier is fairly close to Dothan, in south-central Alabama, and WDIQ
is sometimes considered to be an Andalusia station. A station which
came later, WGIQ/43 Texasville (Barbour County, George Wallace's
home county), is closer to Dothan than WDIQ. Interestingly, the newest
APT station, WIIQ/41 Demopolis, was never listed in the Southern Alabama
Edition but was carried in the South Mississippi Edition.

Did subscribers to TV Guide in Demopolis receive the Southern Alabama edition or the Southern
Mississippi edition? IIRC, Channel 11 in Meridian at one time identified themselves as Meridian-
Demopolis.
A station which
home county), is closer to Dothan than WDIQ.
I thought WGIQ was licensed to Louisville?
The on-air ID was "WGIQ, Louisville, also serving Texasville"
Yet ignoring Dothan.
Ah, those two metropolises of Texasville and Louisville. Lousville (that's "LEWIS-ville"; not "LOO-
EE-ville" or "LOO-UH-ville" as in Kentucky) has a whopping 612 residents (as of 2000 Census),
while Texasville boasts an unknown number of people, since it is apparently unincorporated.
Boy, the FCC must have had big dreams when it assigned the license to those two booming
towns (!!!)

APT station, WIIQ/41 Demopolis, was never listed in the Southern Alabama
Edition but was carried in the South Mississippi Edition.
Reason for WIIQ showing up there, bp, of course was the fact that Demopolis and the Alabama
River region were assigned to the Meridian, Mississippi market. All of that was too far away from
Birmingham/Tuscaloosa, Montgomery, or Mobile, a kind of "dead spot" insofar as Alabama
media coverage is concerned. Areas like the Alabama "Black Belt," which are to this day pretty
impoverished, were a strong priority for PBS, the Corporation for Public Broadcasting, and
Alabama Public Television back in the day, as the only other media serving that population were
small-town papers and radio stations. It took until 1971, but it finally came.
Don't forget, though: George Wallace was from Barbour County, where those two metropolises
are located. And even though the assignment of TV allocations isn't at the behest of demagogic
politicians, don't think that he didn't have some influence. Also, by licensing the station to
Barbour County, WGIQ is able to provide at least Grade-B coverage to the Alabama side of the
Columbus, GA DMA.

Unless said politician's name is Lyndon Johnson; Lady Bird's

Also, what was the source? If from the Canadian TVG or a Canadian paper, do you have any
Radio-Canada listings?

Please quote your source on your retro listings. I know it's not your intent, but when you don't
quote your source, you are essentially plagiarizing someone else's work...even if it is TV Guide or
a newspaper or what have you. Thanks!

Plus, how would the poster expect us to tell what the unknown movies are if we don't have a
source to go by? (SMH)
By the way, notice how slick Channel 20 is by slipping in "LAPD" between the shows of the liberal
Stephanie Miller and the conversative Rush Limbaugh?

WDEF - Chattanooga - 12 (CBS)
10:30 AM I Love Lucy (a Connecticut episode with Mary Jane Croft as Betty Ramsey, Lucy's
opponent in a flower-growing contest)
This is the episode where Lucy takes a ride on the riding lawn mower and rides through the
whole countryside and roads in Connecticut and where she mows down Betty's tulips and then
Lucy puts in wax tulips in their place.

7:30 International Showtime (Don Ameche, with help from Susie
the Elephant, introduces magician Manuel Del Toro and the
Balinese Rhapsody (Vienna Ice Revue), and acts from the
Circus Moreno, Denmark, and the Lorry Theater, Denmark)

Was this show shot on B&W film (35mm or 16mm)? I only vaguely remember it.
I don't think I ever watched it, I just remember that KVOA-TV Tucson never ran it
on Friday evening, but instead delayed it (1 DB or 8 DB?) to Saturday afternoon.
8:30 UN Review (John MacVane, who, IIRC, was on ABC)
And perhaps NBC at one time also, based on an interview in Jef Kisselof's book
The Box. But definitely UN-centric. In discussing the selecting of an anchor
for the Camel News Caravan:
"We had John McVane, who had a show out of the United Nations, but if Christ was
coming down the Jersey Turnpike, he would lead with a story out of East Gambia."
"It's either him or Swayze."

That "I Love Lucy" episode was, I believe, the last half-hour one.
As for John MacVane, he was an NBC radio correspondent; perhaps
his biggest story was the liberation of Paris from the Nazis in 1944.
He had moved to ABC by 1950; Brooks and Marsh mention one program
he did for ABC, the UN-centered "United Or Not," in 1951 and 1952.
The remark that MacVane would report something from Gambia if Christ
came back to Earth reminds me of Chevy Chase's dig at John Chancellor
on "Saturday Night Live" in 1975. For weeks, Chancellor--a foreign-policy
freak--had reported nightly on the deteriorating condition of Francisco Franco.
For weeks after Franco's death, Chase opened every "Weekend Update" segment
with "Franco...still dead tonight."

Just curious--was Channel 11's "Newswatch" local newscast anchored at that time by future NBC
and CBS talk show star Tom Snyder? Seems to me that one night on his CBS "Late Late Show" he
mentioned working for WAII and its predecessor WLWA early in the 1960s, before moving to Los
Angeles in 1963...

I'm not sure if Snyder was anchoring Channel 11's newscast
on that precise date, but he did anchor it during that era.
Another name you might know, Tom Brokaw, anchored Channel
2's newscasts in the mid-'60s; he left Atlanta when WSB couldn't
match what KNBC was willing to pay him.
2 PM Merv Griffin (guests include Eileen Rodgers--who? COLOR)
...Eileen Rodgers was once a big band singer (mainly for Charlie Spivak), and later a Broadway
star (it's possible that she was in a production of either Tenderloin or Anything Goes at the time
of this broadcast)...
That "I Love Lucy" episode was, I believe, the last half-hour one.
Next-to-the-last.....the final half-hour saw Lucy accidentally destroying the new statue in the
town square on the eve of its dedication, then "replacing" it by posing as the statue for the
ceremony.
Right. My mistake.

Re: Retro: Cleveland/Akron/Youngstown Wed, May 19, 1954
Several notes:
"Mulvihill" was Joe Mulvihill, who also did programs for WTAM-1100 and the early days of KYW
Radio..
"At Home With The Grahams" on WXEL featured Then-Cleveland Browns QB Otto Graham and
his family..
John FitzGerald remained with WXEL/WJW-TV well into the 1980's
Trophy Room on WAKR-TV was hosted by Eddie Elias, who would become a founder of the
Professional Bowlers Association in Akron in the early 1960's.
Hal Fryar would end up in Indianapolis by 1960 and spend many years as Kid Host Harlow
Hickenlooper at WFBM-6
The Betty White Show on NBC was a Variety Show
The Cover on this particular TV Guide was Frank Sinatra..One of several "reprint" TV Guides to
make the rounds in recent years..

I kinda remember her...Is she still around?
WAKR 49-ABC Akron
Dateline
5pm Hinky Dinks
9:30 Wrestling
11:00 News (Bill Murphy)
11:15 Wrestling
...hmmm. Would the Army-McCarthy coverage have been a live feed from ABC, or perhaps day-
or-two-old kinescopes? And I assume, since the dateline indicated two diferent times, that
WAKR signed of the air between the end of the midday session and the beginning of the
afternoon session, providing they *were* live and not simply the same film run twice in the day.
And also the end of the afternoon session and the start time of Hinky Dinks...
...also interested that there was a 90-minute wrestling program, interrupted for a 15-minute
news block, and then another wrestling show. There were certainly enough filmed wrestling
shows from around the country in '54 to fill those time slots thrice over, so I'm curious as to
what originating locales they would be from...
About the Hearings:
All Ive ever heard is that they were live..WAKR could have aired Cartoons or a film short or two In
between the hearings.. I believe without the hearings, the station's normal sign-on was
5PM. The wrestling could have been from ABC at 9:30 and either Akron or Cleveland at
11:15
from TV Guide-Lake Erie edition
WKBN 27-CBS/ABC/DuMont Youngstown
Seems like awful racy fare for 1954!
I presume the short-lived Channel 45 in New Castle, PA had gone away by this point?
Actually, the Channel 45 allocation had more lives that a cat, seemingly..
April 1953-January 15, 1955-WKST carried ABC and at least Captain Video from DuMont..Here's
a sample schedule from December 20, 1954:
3PM Test Pattern
6:15 (Mahoning) Valley Reporter
6:30 Komedy Kapers
6:45 Santa Claus
7PM Captain Video
7:15 John Daly ABC News
7:30 45 Scrapbook
8:30 Voice Of Firestone
9PM Monday Marquee (Local Movie slot)
10PM Monday Night Fights
10:45 Neutral Corner
11PM News
11:15 Sign-of
45 returned as WKST once again November 1957, again licensed to New Castle and an ABC
affiliate. In 1959 WKST was relicensed to Youngstown and moved down the Dial to channel
33..Call letters were changed to the current WYTV September 15, 1963..
Channel 45 came back again under new ownership as WXTV in 1960-62 as a Youngstown
Independent..It showed some promise early on but fell back on multiple showings of the same
movies, very cheap syndicated fare and even cheaper looking local shows and bit the dust by
March 1962.
Channel 45 returned as WNEO-PBS licensed to Alliance, Ohio with Transmitter/antenna located

between Salem and Alliance, nominally a Youngstown-Akron PBS with WEAO-49(Former WAKR-
TV), acquired in 1975..45/49 are together now known as Western Reserve PBS..

I kinda remember her...Is she still around?
LOL!! You're kidding, right?
I am sure that was well placed sarcasm..

Sounds just like WFAT-TV 19 out of Johnstown, PA in the mid-1980's.

...okeh, fair enough. Although we do know that either ABC or DuMont (or both) did make kinnies
of the hearings, as those kinnies were the source of the material from which Emile de Antonio
cobbled together his 1964 documentary Point of Order...

...just checked, and at the Museum of Broadcast Communications (a.k.a. Bruce DuMont's
basement) website, http://www.museum.tv/eotvsection.php...=army-mccarthy, they claim that
all four networks were originally set to take a live feed from ABC's affiliate in Washington,
WMAL-TV/7, but CBS decided at the last minute not to give up the advertising money they'd lose
by cancelling the soap operas and daytime domestic chat shows, so they merely took ABC's
kinescopes and edited them down for a nightly Nightline-like capsule special. Then, after two
days of ridiculously tedious coverage, NBC decided to follow suit, taking ABC's kinnies and
editing them down for their nightly capsules. Thus, both DuMont and ABC aired the live feed,
and ABC made duplicate kinescopes for its own affiliates and library, CBS and NBC. DuMont was
probably so cash-poor by this time that I suspect they were mainly limiting their kinescope
activity for Bishop Sheen's program Life is Worth Living (was that one commercially sponsored?)
and their commercially sponsored, non-sustaining programs...

Is it the same Bill Daily who was also on "I Dream of Jeannie" and "The Bob Newhart Show"?
It's not shown on Daily's IMDB page. Daily was a regular on The Bob Newhart Show at that time.
Other spellings, like Daley, Daly, and Dailey turned up nothing. Nothing under Hocus Pocus Gang
either.
I believe it was the same Bill Daily; I remember that on his first
"Hocus Pocus Gang" show Bob Newhart was his guest.

Re: Retro: Indianapolis/Terre Haute/Lafayette Sat, Nov 9, 1974
From 2006 to 2009 Daily appeared once a week on KBQI 107.9
Albuquerque's morning show, and one morning in October 2008
he mentioned "Hocus Pocus Gang" and how the magicians often
wanted to show him how the tricks were done, which he didn't
want to know. He frequently talked about "I Dream Of Jeannie"
and "The Bob Newhart Show," and there was a regular feature
with him playing "Match Game" with listeners.
While I think "Hocus Pocus Gang" was taped at various locations
around the country I know the episode with Newhart was taped
at Six Flags Over Georgia.

It makes me wonder why I even owned a TV set. Not one good "Classic" show. That is, if one
thinks of "Classic" TV programing as being 1948-1968. I've said this before. As I was born in 1952,
and, as my bio says, I was a TV baby, it's hard for me to realize that most folks posting on this
board weren't born until I was in college, and it's hard for me to think of a "Classic" show as
being a "made for TV Movie" in 1986.

Re: Retro: Wisconsin/Western Upper Michigan Sat, Nov 12, 1966
I have some extended family in the area around Ironwood, Mich., in the northwest U.P.
Aside from the station in Rhinelander I doubt any of these were viewable over the air.

5:30 Tony Gosz (c; TVG lists it as that, but TV2's ad calls it Romy Gosz Band with Tony Gosz)
...Romy Gosz had been an extremely popular polka bandleader who recorded for the Decca,
Columbia and Mercury labels from the '30s through the '50s, and was an early TV star in
Wisconsin over WBAY-TV. (Apparently, it was a connection with Bing Crosby that led to the deal
with Decca.) According to http://www.internationalpolka.com/gosz.htm, Romy Gosz had died a
few weeks prior to this broadcast, by which time his younger brother Tony Gosz had taken over
the band and the TV show. Most of the polka TV shows in Wisconsin around this time were run
on Sundays, with Dr. John Check and Dick Rodgers' WLUK shows syndicated throughout
Wisconsin and Michigan, and Alvin Styczynski's program running on WBAY-TV and WVTV...

First of all, thanks for a week day one, and secondly, I know Livingston Gilbert's voice because he
recorded talking books produced by the American Printing House for the Blind in Louisville.
Because I am blind, and have been from birth, I am able to borrow talking books from the library
of congres's reading program for the blind. I was 8 years old then, and he was one of my favorite
readers.
Was this a regular program in this slot or was this an actual special?
It was an actual special sponsored, IIRC, by Purex. I noted in the listing for
this program on WAVE that "Make Room For Daddy" and "Here's Hollywood"
were pre-empted for this program.

Re Chico Renfroe: he was a former baseball player who never made
the jump into either the American or National Leagues; at this point
he was, among other things, covering sports for the Atlanta Daily
World, the newspaper whose readership is centered in the city's
African-American community. So he wasn't a coach; rather, I assume
(since I never stayed up to watch him), he presented highlights of
the games of AUC schools such as Morehouse and Spelman.

Amazing how many church programs channel 46 had on this day. Also, many of the stations had
11 am church services programmed. Most likely major congregations like FBC Atlanta and
Peachtree Presbyterian were broadcast. Probably the same could be said about Chattanooga and
Macon (Mabel White Baptist).
It is funny how you now only have one station in a market airing a church service at 11 am. And
back then (1974), most of those services were aired live and not taped.

IIRC, at the time all of Pat Robertson's stations had nothing
but religious programs on Sundays. And there would eventually
be another Atlanta station with an 11 AM service, when Channel
11 added Roswell Street Baptist Church around 1975 or '76.

I might add re Atlanta church services that First Baptist

Church of Atlanta is where Charles Stanley is pastor; his
"In Touch" originates there.
On a Sunday morning in the late '70s/early '80s Atlantans
had their pick of Peachtree Presbyterian Church on Channel
2; Second Ponce de Leon Baptist Church and Grace Methodist
Church alternating on Channel 5; Roswell Street Baptist Church
on Channel 11; St. Luke's Episcopal Church on Channel 36; and
Charles Stanley on Channel 46--all at 11 AM. In addition there
were services on Chs. 9, 13, and 41. At least in Atlanta these
were mostly phased out; I don't know of Channels 2 (ABC), 5
(Fox), 11 (NBC), or 46 (CBS) having an 11 AM service today.
Greenville/Spartanburg/Asheville was another market where three
network affiliates had church services: First Presbyterian of Greenville,
IIRC, on Channel 4 (NBC), First Baptist Church of Spartanburg on
Channel 7 (CBS), and First Baptist Church of Asheville on Channel 13
(ABC). Last I heard, 7 was the only one still carrying an 11 AM service.

The NBC affiliates in both Atlanta and Chattanooga had Dolphins at Saints starting at 2 pm, with
the Steelers at Bengals doubleheader game joined in progress afterwards. Unless it was their
choice, I would guess that the Saints, who were playing their last season at the old Tulane
Stadium [site of that season's Super Bowl IX, also on NBC, which saw the aforementioned
Steelers win their first of six championships] before moving to the [Mercedes-Benz] Superdome
the next year, might have been under some local ordinance in those days that prohibited any of
their home games from starting earlier than 1 pm Central time.
The then-Baltimore Colts faced a similar problem in that same era when they weren't allowed to
start any of their home games prior to 2 pm Eastern time.

Re: Retro: Eastern Virginia Wednesday, November 11, 1970
Actually, though not included in TV Guide. TV 27 was signing on at 1 PM repeating the 700 Club
from the night before by then. Still TV 27 was a very low budget operation with very limited
programming, religious or secular. But from the Fall of 1971 to the Fall of 1973, WYAH TV 27
grew rapidly. They began acquiring second and third hand shows that fell of WAVY, WVEC, and
WTAR TV bit by bit. By the fall of 71 they were on 12 hours a day, by the fall of 72 they were on
by 10 AM and had about 8 hours a day of general entertainment. In the fall of 1973 they were on
the air by 7 AM every day and looked like a pretty strong independent. In the 70's this station
had a stronger lineup than many secular stations at the time. The only day they were only
Christian was Sunday and they began adding entertainment part of the day Sunday in 1980.

"Valentine's Day" seemed to get delayed on a number of stations.
I know that in these parts the ABC affiliates in Atlanta and High
Point, NC (and possibly Asheville) ran movies on Friday nights and
delayed the show to Saturday or Sunday. Other than her role as
Valentine Farrow's secretary, the only time I've ever actually seen
Janet Waldo was in the "I Love Lucy" episode where she plays a
teenager with a huge crush on Desi, while Richard Crenna (still using
his Walter Denton voice from "Our Miss Brooks") develops one on Lucy.
What's really strange is to see a station with "Eyewitness News" this
far back, until I remember that KYW was owned by Westinghouse.
I don't think the concept really took of until WABC started in in '68;
by my freshman year in high school (1969-70) I was seeing stations
in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, and Tennessee picking up the format.
However, I was in Birmingham at the time, and the stations there steadfastly
refused to convert to it--the old "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" line--although
Tuscaloosa's WCFT did adopt it later. (But then again, the Birmingham stations
were still doing news, weather, and sports as separate programs into the '70s.)
"Valentine's Day" seemed to get delayed on a number of stations. I know that in these parts
the ABC affiliates in Atlanta and High Point, NC (and possibly Asheville) ran movies on Friday
nights and delayed the show to Saturday or Sunday.
KGUN-TV Tucson also played the DB game with Valentine's Day, pushing it
to Sunday at 6. It was still a 16mm film print, which is what it aired from
on KTVK Phoenix Friday at 8.
Other than her role as
Valentine Farrow's secretary, the only time I've ever actually seen Janet Waldo was in the "I Love
Lucy" episode where she plays a teenager with a huge crush on Desi, while Richard Crenna (still
using his Walter Denton voice from "Our Miss Brooks") develops one on Lucy.
Janet Waldo was 28 when that show aired in 1952. She's still alive and kicking at age 87 - the last
surviving member of the original cast of The Jetsons.
She has made several appearances on Stu Shostak's Internet Radio Show..Even now, she still
sounds like a teenager..And a very delightful interview..
Shostak's radio show has recently changed in that there is no longer a radio station connected
with it..Each episode is aired once live (Wednesdays at 4PM Pacific, 7PM Eastern) and
immediately put into their archive. For a nominal fee of 99 cents per 2 hour show, the archive of
over 250 shows is available for download.

around in a groovy van, looking for crimes to solve. These guest stars were so popular, they were
special guests in EVERY episode, and even had that new movie series named after the character

Nope...WCVB's Jim Boyd is black...for the New England posters, wasn't he on Jabberwocky, which

bp, you may remember that last year, I posted the statewide listings from the Louisville Courier-
Journal on August 9, 1974, the day of Richard Nixon's resignation from the Presidency. That was
a mere two years after this listing, and WKRC was still running a block of WLWT NBC pre-
emptions between 8 and 10 a.m. or so. Of course, all those Peacock shows were displaced by the
Crosley/AVCO warhorses Paul Dixon and 50-50 Club (Bob Braun), both hour-and-a-half
extravaganzas.
I think the matter resolved itself around New Year 1975 due to two factors: the first was the
untimely death of Dixon shortly after Christmas, which meant the eventual cancellation of that
long-running show, but also ABC's launch of, first, A.M. America, to be succeeded by the present-
day Good Morning America later in the year. I do not know for certain, but I would imagine that
WKRC probably cleared at least an hour of it, meaning that the NBC slots would no longer be
available, at least not in the abundance as in the early 1970s (and perhaps going back to the
mid-1960s or so). However, sister Taft station WBRC in Birmingham did not clear GMA for years,
preferring its own established local show, so it may not be straightforward as that.
In any case, Cincy had an indie, WXIX. Why in the dickens didn't channel 19 just sign on earlier to
run the NBC lineup pre-empted by WLWT? I'm sure that situation was quite embarrassing for
execs at 30 Rock, in that one of the then largest markets in the country did not clear up to half of
the daytime feed. NBC was pretty much stuck, though, since WKRC and parent Taft had such a
close relationship with the Alphabet Channel, and WCPO and Scripps-Howard were likewise cozy
with the Eyeball. To be on UHF in a place like Cincinnati (WXIX) would have been unthinkable for
NBC, or the other networks, back in the day.
Although we can't determine it from the Kentucky listings, wonder if the competitors to the
other Crosley/AVCO outlets also picked up the slack (WLWD in Dayton, WLWC in Columbus, and
WLWI in Indianapolis--the latter an ABC affil)? If not, WKRC must have really been money-hungry
in the 70s. One wonders what ABC thought about this set-up too (I would suspect not very
pleased, but tolerating it because of the Tafts).

I sure miss all the network morning and early afternoon game shows. Looks like there were
about 12 at that time. Today it's down to The Price Is Right and Let's Make A Deal. WHAT
HAPPENED?
I'd rather see a lot of those game show than the silly talk/info shows the networks are pushing
today. "Coming up next, how to get the most out of your dishwasher, stay tuned."

I do remember your posting the complete Courier-Journal listings, but that didn't enter my
thinking when I put up that disclaimer; also, remember that not everybody reads every thread.
Nevertheless, Cincinnati was a peculiar market in those days, and it wasn't just WLWT; look at
WCPO's playing fast and loose with CBS's daytime schedule (why was "Love Of Life" never
carried on WCPO, and why did they flip flop "Secret Storm" and "LIAMST" except that "Storm"
had been on the network at 3 from 1968 to September 1972?) As for the Taft stations, WBRC ran
CBS daytime shows as late as 1968 ("Love Of Life" and "Secret Storm" in particular), even though
it was an ABC affiliate; by the time I moved to Birmingham in the summer of '69, WBRC was
carrying only ABC programs, although out-of-pattern in a lot of cases.
Perhaps someone can find TV Guide listings for Dayton and Columbus for this same date and we
can all find out if WLWD (WDTN) and WLWC (WCMH) handed of NBC shows to the other
stations in their markets.
I'm also surprised that nobody has noted that WHAS cleared the entire CBS schedule that day,
and in-pattern (I know, somebody's going to say "Sunrise Semester" actually aired at 1 PM but I
don't recall any station carrying it at that time; it was always considered an early-morning
program, so as far as I'm concerned WHAS carried it in pattern).

Piggybacking on an above post:
Seeing as 1) the Reds were playing in the NLCS that year, and 2) MLB did allow local duplication
of postseason games in the home market, did viewers in Cincinnati get the local coverage
originated by WLWT, or did they see NBC's national feed?
Louisville and Lexington (then and now) are also part of the Reds' territory, so I wonder if it the
same for them as well?

programs for the Cincinnati stations?
From 3 to 4:30 ET, NBC's lineup was as follows:
3:00 Another World (then only 30 minutes; expanded to an hour in January 1975)
3:30 Return to Peyton Place (ill-fated and conceived revival of 1960s prime-time sensation)
4:00 Somerset (AW spinof that ran from 1970 to 1976; as noted earlier, WLWT passed on it and
it ran on ABC affil WKRC on a one-day delay)
After 4:30 on WAVE and WLWT is afternoon fringe--in all likelihood, sitcom or drama reruns
occupied most of the hour and a half on both stations until the evening news. Local kiddie shows
had pretty much signed of by 1972. bpatrick should have full details on the 4:30-6:00 block.

I can speak from experience as far as what viewers in Cincinnati received. They got the NBC-TV
national feed with Curt Gowdy. Normally, the local station (Channel 5) would have had their local
announcers, but at this time, there was some kind of problem involving the engineers at WLW-T.
I don't think it was necessarily a strike, but as a result, Channel 5 wound up taking the network
feed.
As to my knowledge back then, the the other stations on what would be the Reds TV Network
during the regular season got the NBC-TV feed (so long as they were an NBC-TV affiliate) and
only those watrching on WLW-T got the home announcers.
An interesting sidelight to this involved the second game of that best-of-five NLCS played the day
before in Pittsburgh. Because of NBC-TV doing NFL games that day (Sunday), the network did not
do that game. It wound up locally that WCPO-TV, Channel 9, originated the telecast with Tom
Hedrick, Waite Hoyt and Jack Moran doing the announcing. Hedrick and Hoyt had done the TV
announcing that season for the Reds TV Network and Moran was a part of that game because of
him being with Channel 9. It marked the first work Hoyt and Moran worked together since being
the announcers on the Reds radio games from 1955-1961.

I looked up an article from the Dover (Ohio) Times-Reporter from that particular week..Didnt
read the whole thing, but it appears there was a NABET strike/work stoppage involving the Avco
stations at this time. The NBC Network engineers apparently didnt honor the picket line..
I got the following info from newspaperarchive.com..If your local library subscribes to it, you
might be able to get online access free from home..Mostly small newspapers, but its a decent
resource worth checking out..
Lee Corso was the head football coach at Louisville from 1969-72, so this would have been the U
of L highlights show. He posted a 28-11-3 record in his four seasons there. After the season, he
moved to Indiana, where he served as head coach of the Hoosiers for the next ten seasons.

WLWT carried its own movie on Wednesday 8-10,
while NBC had "Adam-12" and the "NBC Wednesday
Mystery Movie." IIRC, WKRC picked up the "Mystery
Movie" and aired in late night on Saturday. The
"Mystery Movie" (Wednesday) segments that year
were "Banacek," "Cool Million," and "Madigan"; on
Sundays, "Columbo," "McCloud," "McMillan And Wife,"
and "Hec Ramsey."

CBS had "The Brighter Day" at 4 PM. Could this have
been the normal program, although I can't see pre-empting
a soap for more than a month, especially one produced by
Cincinnati-based Procter and Gamble?
I'm a little surprised that WCPO didn't carry "Password" at 2;

as an ABC affiliate they had carried the network show, although
at the time ABC gave its affiliates 1:30-2 PM, which is when
Channel 9 carried "Highway Patrol."

I'm very surprised that WCPO had Santa Claus on as early as November 15th. Back then, very
little was heard about Christmas on TV and radio until after Thanksgiving and, for the most part,
not much was on until at least December. I really don't remember that show being on.

Used to be that Thanksgiving marked the start of the Xmas holiday season, symbolized by Santa
bringing up the rear of the Macy's parade. That was, for me as a kid, "OK, time to start thinking
about Christmas now and begin dropping hints about what I want to Mom." There was a definite
line there -- now, as soon as Halloween has come and gone, and Thanksgiving is still weeks away,
stores are already putting up Xmas trees, and holiday-themed commercials start to appear.

Channel 9 had the new King Features cartoons; 12 had been running the old AAP package since
1958. The ubiquitous Bob Shreve hosted the Channel 9 version, making disparaging comments
about the cartoons and cracking borderline-dirty jokes.

In Cleveland, there had been various "Santa" shows through the mid 1950's. The Mr. Jingeling
character, created by Halle's Departement Store as "Santa's Chief Helper" and "Keeper of the
Keys" to Santa's North Pole Toy Factory, began in 1956 at WEWS-TV 5 and lasted through about
1986. Traditonally, his shows would start on Thanksgiving Day and end Christmas Eve, usually as
a part of Captain Penny's Show..Though by the late 70's and 80's Jingeling appeared on channels
3, 8, 19 and 43 at one time or another.

Re: Retro:Cleveland Thursday November 13, 1952
I don't know the details about it, but I think "Quick Quiz"
was "Movie Quick Quiz," some sort of franchised feature
hosted by one of the station's personalities (at WFMY
it was p.d. Gomer (no kidding) Lesch); sounds like the
way "Romper Room," "Bowling For Dollars," and "PM Magazine"
were handled. I think the show usually aired around 7 PM (ET),

give or take a few minutes; at least it did in Greensboro, Charlotte,
and Atlanta.

The significance of this date will come as details envelop. Let's just say the main significance goes
by the initials "S.S."

42 years ago today, "Sesame Street" went on the air. And in New York City, WPIX showed
"Sesame Street" at 9AM, as CTW did not want the show against "Captain Kangaroo" on CBS, and
WNDT (WNET) was unable to let go an hour of in-school television (though they did show
"Sesame Street" in the afternoon).

Funny that when Bewitched reruns were first seen in daytime on ABC, all episodes, even those
that were in color, were broadcast in black and white, even though all of ABC's daytime lineup
was already full-color? Why was that?

In reference to Sesame Street, I think WPIX started showing it the next day, on a day-delay basis,

In reference to Sesame Street, I think WPIX started showing it the next day, on a day-delay basis,
to allow WNDT to show the program first.
Apparently, from what I can gather, WPIX's airings began three weeks after the premiere; as of
March 31, 1970, I noticed that Channel 11 aired Episode #086 while WNDT/13 was running
Episode #101.

That would've come as a surprise to TV Guide, if based on that terminology - or euphemism, if

you will - they used in this case. They've had quite a few doozies in their listings over the years.
In fact, some of the listings here came directly from the various newspapers, especially the WOR-
TV lineup. (TVG had Circus, Circus, Circus on at 3:30, and a syndicated show hosted by "Cousin
Brucie" Morrow at 5, but by the time of the date in question they were running what you saw
here. With a net loss of a half-hour for their Stock Market Observer. What's more, the Daily
News had an ad for Mad, Mad Movie.) This is why, on my retro postings, you (and everybody
else) see multiple source references due to the contradictions inherent. The out-of-area papers
are valuable to flesh out the numerous movie show titles (especially, if available, for the
Connecticut movie show umbrellas).
The WNDT, WLIW and WNYE school TV listings came from the New York Post; the rest of WLIW's
programming, from The Times; and WATR's local (non-NBC) programming, from the Meriden
Journal and Record. (It wasn't until mid-to-late 1970 that WLIW listings showed up in TVG.)
3:30p Adventures of Superman - "The Stolen Costume" [original airdate 12/12/52]
Based on a story heard in 1948 on Mutual Radio's Adventures of Superman radio program with
Bud Collyer as Superman and Clark Kent, Joan Alexander as Lois Lane. But on radio it featured a
guest appearance by Batman and Robin. You can see a review of this here

8:30p Catch 13 (a 90-minute fundraising drive, hosted by Alfred Drake; featuring Rodney
Dangerfield, Joanne Carson,
Peter Duchin and his Orchestra, Richie Havens, Gerry Mulligan) (C)
It'd be interesting if this is still on video anywhere. Peter Max did a poster for it, which you can
see here:

A Google search reveals that on Friday, November 14, WNDT aired all three Catch 13 shows.
Descriptions follow, taken from a copy of the Red Bank (NJ) Daily Register that you can find here:
http://209.212.22.88/data/rbr/1960-1...1969.11.14.pdf

Personally, that's a way fundraising for public television should have been -- as a traditional
telethon (similar to Jerry Lewis'), and not a string of special made-for-pledge shows with
segments to call if they would like to see more of it.

The 7 P.M. movie on Channel 3 went by the umbrella After Dinner Movie; apparently, even with
Merv on CBS, then-WTIC's late night movie on this night was Monday Starlight.

"Continental Kino" (Channel 18, 2PM) was a series of German-language films hosted by Herb
Wittke, who was a radio personality on "ethnic" station WMIL-AM. Most of the films were
German musicals and comedies, but the series ran a few documentaries as well. Channel 18 was
always trying to ofer diverse programming, but was usually defeated by its lack of money and
invariably found itself falling back on old Hollywood movies, syndicated shows and wrestling
matches.

The listings I quoted are dead wrong.
According to another source I have, Family Matters was shelved at the beginning of that summer
on WPHL and replaced by another episode of Boy Meets World. The show would be
permanently removed from the channel's lineup later that summer and did not appear on
Philadelphia licensed UHF station (although it was on WFMZ Allentown from 2005-2006) for the
rest of it's local syndication run.
Also from 07/05/1999 to 09/02/1999, WPSG had these changes:
06:30AM Benny Hinn
09:00AM I Love Lucy
09:30AM The Honeymooners (x2)
10:30PM Good Times
It's amazing how I can remember that far back. The 10pm-11pm hour was had Forgive or Forget
ditched for an hour block called "70s Laugh Back" featuring reruns of Sanford and Son and Good
Times.

Re: Retro: North Georgia Friday, November 15, 1974
Phil Donahue (Edwin Newman talks about misuses
and bad grammar.)
Kind of a change from his more 'controversial' topics in later years. Were episodes like these
more typical of his show back then? As a youngster in the '70s and '80s, I only seem to
remember 'that white-haired guy who interviewed weirdos'.
'Gay nuns on dope..on the next 'Donahue'! ' ;D
8 PM His Land (Billy Graham's musical director Clif Barrows and

Clif Richard conduct a musical tour of Israel.)
During the late-1960s and early-1970s, brit pop sensation Clif Richard embraced Christianity,
and released a series of Christian albums, alongside his secular hits. However, at the time,
Richard was still an unknown in the US until two years later, when he scored his first American
top ten hit, ironically called "Devil Woman":

Newman wrote a book about the joys and pitfalls of the English language. I would assume it was
published around that time; hence, the topic.
The book was called "Strictly Speaking," and my parents gave it to me for Christmas that year. He
later wrote a second book on the use of the English language (I think it was called "A Civil
Tongue"). I highly recommend both books, as it seems to me,
from grading too many essays, that people (especially high school and college kids) have almost
forgotten how to use the language properly (no ofense if you're not guilty).
As for the content of Donahue's shows in those days, I can't generalize, but for the week of
November 11-15, 1974 here
were the guests and/or topics:
Monday Channel 3: manners essential to the socially adept male
Channel 5: Angela Davis
Tuesday 3: Harvard psychiatrist Samuel Silverman discusses
psychosomatic illnesses
5: Author Elizabeth Janeway discusses women and careers
Wednesday 3: Cookbook author Sophie Leavitt tells how to cut costs
on food preparation
5: Psychotherapist Arnold Hutschnecker discusses his book
"The Drive For Power"
Thursday 3: Draft resistors discuss President Ford's amnesty plan
5: Dr. Neil Solomon discusses safe ways to lose weight
Friday 3: The Statler Brothers (a change of pace, anyway)
5: Edwin Newman
So nothing really 'way out that week; I can't say if this was typical
of the era for the show. I think the really far-out stuf started when
he had to compete with some of the shows that came along in the
early '90s, such as Ricki Lake's, but by then Oprah had become the
dominant daytime talk-show presence and Phil hung up his microphone
in 1996.

The 10:15 movie would have been a continuation of the 9:00 movie. 11 interrupted the movie
for 15 minutes of news.
(During the summer, however, 11 ran movies at 8:00 for 2 hours.)

Is "Gourmet" on Channel 39 David Wade? He was based
in Dallas (was on Channel 4 for several years, IIRC), and
I remember a syndicated show he did that I usually found
on Sunday afternoons. Or is this Graham Kerr? Personal
note: I always thought two things about Wade: (1) he
looked a bit like Louis Nye, and (2) he wasn't as funny as Kerr.
The schedules, for the most part, resemble what we were getting
when we moved out there in the fall of '76, at least in the daytime;
I notice only one daytime pre-emption, and it's on Channel 8: "The
Money Maze," which ABC had problems clearing in a lot of places
(including Atlanta). When I lived there, Channel 8 carried the entire
ABC daytime lineup; the only deviation was on Channel 5, which carried
"Sanford And Son" at 3:30 PM instead of 9 AM, and didn't carry Jim Perry's
version of "Card Sharks."
Channel 8 did do a wholesale rescheduling of its 5-7 PM block before we
moved there. By the fall of 1976, it was "News 8 At 5" with Bob Gooding,
followed by ABC News (Reasoner/Walters) at 5:30, "News 8 At 6" (Tracy/
Iola/Troy/Verne), and "Bowling For Dollars" at 6:30. Also, the afternoon

movie was cut to 90 minutes (3:30-5) in order to accommodate "Edge Of
Night" at 3, although after I was long gone, Channel 8 went back to a 3 PM
movie (I think at one point they were starting their news at 4:30).
And I'll never forget, that fall of '76, ABC had "The Don Ho Show" at 11 AM.
My mom loved variety shows, so she'd watch every morning. The funny part
(to me, at least) is that our Chihuahua liked it even better than she did! (But
then again, he couldn't wait for me to turn on "The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner
Show" on Saturday mornings; all I had to say were the magic words, "Hey, Mike,
you wanna watch Bugs?"). And if you think I'm crazy, I read the other day that
a dog has a vocabulary of about 160 words, while a cat's is only about 40. But
I digress....

These listings apprently didn't account for any shows before 7 AM. I'm pretty sure many of the
stations were on before 7.
I don't recall whether 8 was still running Murray Cox RFD or if it had become Country Daybreak
by then.
They also aired Operation: Lift in the earning morning hours, a local education program.
I think 4 ran Sunrise Semester and I think 5 may have already had a short newscast at 6:45 AM
by this time.

Might have been the former -- I don't know if repeats of "The Galloping Gourmet" were still in
circulation at the time, as the series went out of production in 1971 following Graham's accident,
and around this time (1975), Graham was (or was about to) hosting his daily 5-minute series,
"Take Kerr".

Splitting a prime time movie like this must have been standard practice for Gaylord Broadcasting
owned stations back in the seventies, because they did the same thing with the 9 PM prime time
movie on KSTW channel 11 in Tacoma, WA.
Is "Gourmet" on Channel 39 David Wade? He was based
in Dallas (was on Channel 4 for several years, IIRC), and
I remember a syndicated show he did that I usually found
on Sunday afternoons. Or is this Graham Kerr? Personal
note: I always thought two things about Wade: (1) he
looked a bit like Louis Nye, and (2) he wasn't as funny as Kerr.
The schedules, for the most part, resemble what we were getting
when we moved out there in the fall of '76, at least in the daytime;
I notice only one daytime pre-emption, and it's on Channel 8: "The
Money Maze," which ABC had problems clearing in a lot of places
(including Atlanta). When I lived there, Channel 8 carried the entire
ABC daytime lineup; the only deviation was on Channel 5, which carried
"Sanford And Son" at 3:30 PM instead of 9 AM, and didn't carry Jim Perry's
version of "Card Sharks."
Channel 8 did do a wholesale rescheduling of its 5-7 PM block before we
moved there. By the fall of 1976, it was "News 8 At 5" with Bob Gooding,
followed by ABC News (Reasoner/Walters) at 5:30, "News 8 At 6" (Tracy/
Iola/Troy/Verne), and "Bowling For Dollars" at 6:30. Also, the afternoon
movie was cut to 90 minutes (3:30-5) in order to accommodate "Edge Of
Night" at 3, although after I was long gone, Channel 8 went back to a 3 PM
movie (I think at one point they were starting their news at 4:30).
And I'll never forget, that fall of '76, ABC had "The Don Ho Show" at 11 AM.
My mom loved variety shows, so she'd watch every morning. The funny part
(to me, at least) is that our Chihuahua liked it even better than she did! (But
then again, he couldn't wait for me to turn on "The Bugs Bunny/Road Runner
Show" on Saturday mornings; all I had to say were the magic words, "Hey, Mike,
you wanna watch Bugs?"). And if you think I'm crazy, I read the other day that
a dog has a vocabulary of about 160 words, while a cat's is only about 40. But
I digress....
Aw, bp, you named your Chihuahua "Mike"? How touching .... (HAHAHAHAHAHA!!!)
If it's a chihuahua, shouldn't it be "Miguel?"

"Miguelito" (little Michael). Actually, his name was
Mikey; we named him after the kid in the cereal
commercial. (My present cat, Bart, is named after
Bart Simpson.) Mikey was a big TV fan; he would
watch almost hypnotized when a horse race was on,
and he was fascinated with Ben Vereen as Chicken
George in "Roots."

I assume by the "?" that the OP isn't sure what this show is (or is about). IIRR, this show was a
spinof/outgrowth of 4 Country Reporter, a local show about average folks and their stories that
ran for many years on Ch.4 but would later move to WFAA/8 as 8 Country Reporter (and
syndicated to other markets as Texas Country Reporter). Over the years, the people/stories
would grow to encompass all of Texas; for a season or 2, the show jumped the state line for a
few profiles in neighboring states (a move the show truly could have done without...Texas is
plenty big enough for hundreds of stories and profiles). As for Young 4 Country, I don't
remember watching it, but I think it was aimed at kids and young adults. I'm pretty sure it didn't
last very long.
I remember in the time period I lived in Dallas (1976-79),
"4 Country Reporter" was on Saturdays at 6:30, and I
don't remember "Young 4 Country." Usually at that time
I watched "Inside Television With Mike Shapiro" on Channel
8 (and no wisecracks about my dog, he was probably eating).
I remember Inside Television, or Let Me Speak to the Manager as it was originally known. I
actually met Mr. Shapiro once in a hallway in his post-retirement days in the building where he
kept an office. I don't remember the exact exchange, but he was quite cordial. 4 Country
Reporter was a favorite show of my mother's so I got to see it many times.
Sounds like your dog has discriminating taste in TV shows....

I also met Mike Shapiro once. I was talking to g.m. Dave Lane
about the job market, and Mr. Shapiro came into the office while
I was there. I agree; he was very cordial, and Lane was a class
act all the way. I still think the two of them, and news director
Marty Haag, built a first-class operation at Channel 8; it's a shame
all of them have passed on.
Actually, my dog's favorite shows were Bugs Bunny and horse racing.

Re: Retro: Kentucky Saturday, November 14, 1981
Every NBC affiliate had a regional wrestling show at noon? From what I remember, NBC was
running reruns of 'Bullwinkle' in that slot in '81-82.
The ABC football games included Alabama vs. Penn State, Iowa vs. Wisconsin, NC State vs. Duke,
or Arkansas/Texas A &M early, and Southern Mississippi-Florida State in the late slot.

As I've pointed out in similar Saturday listings for Kentucky
from that era, yes, all three NBC affiliates had a wrestling
show at noon, but it's just coincidence, since there was
certainly no NBC network wrestling show. I seem to recall
WXII, the NBC affiliate in Winston-Salem and sister station
to WLWT, running wrestling at noon (and Louisville stations
programmed so much like Greensboro/Winston-Salem/High Point
stations in the '70s and '80s that it somehow makes sense to
find wrestling on WAVE in that timeslot).
It was not uncommon to see NBC affiliates pre-empting
"The Dafy/Speedy Show" and Bullwinkle from 12-1; where I
live in North Carolina, WXII pre-empted them while WSLS Roanoke
carried them.

Thanks; I couldn't remember what other NBC cartoon was pre-empted. I live in the Bay Area,
and recall my local affiliate pre-empting 'Dafy and Speedy' for some local kids' show, but still
airing 'Bullwinkle'.
Even though the wrestling in this listing wasn't an NBC telecast, was it the same regional
syndicated show, or local shows for each market?

Does anyone have listings for WKYH-TV 57 from Hazard from that day(Saturday 11/14/1981)?

You'll need somebody with the West Virginia edition of
TV Guide, or a newspaper from southeastern Kentucky.
WKYH/WYMT wasn't carried in the Kentucky edition at
the time.

The wrestling on WAVE and WLEX was definitely the show out of Memphis which was taped at
WMC-TV also an NBC affiliate.

No doubt. Louisville and Lexington were part of Nick
Gulas' territory for many years (along with Memphis,
Nashville, Chattanooga, Huntsville, and Birmingham,
among others). I don't know who promoted Cincinnati;
a few years later Ted Turner would be making inroads
into Columbus and Huntington.

Re: Retro: Milwaukee, Monday, Jan. 7, 1962
A few observations:
1. I saw the name Bill Plante. I think you all know that he
went on to a pretty-successful career at CBS.
2. Why are the exercise shows scheduled late at night?
Patricia Stevens, Debbie Drake, both after 10 PM. I
thought shows like Debbie Drake and Jack LaLanne were
morning shows.
3. "Camouflage" was celebrating its first birthday that week,
but strangely enough, Don Morrow decided to take the
week of. Announcer Johnny Gilbert (whom you know from

"Jeopardy!") subbed for him (I've seen the Jan. 8 episode on
YouTube), and Chet Gould took the announcing duties that week.
As much as I admire Don's talents (and he'll probably hate me if
he reads this), I think Johnny did a fine job hosting the show.

Re: Retro: Milwaukee, Monday, Jan. 7, 1962
The 10:15 "Hong Kong" listing on Channel 12 was an error, since that was an hour-long program.
Re the late-night exercise shows: Channel 18 signed on a 4 in the afternoon, so it couldn't very
well put the shows on any earlier. BTW, some of the films Channel 18's Mac the Mailman showed
included Laurel & Hardy, Hopalong Cassidy, Ramar of the Jungle, Sgt. Preston, Jungle Jim and
Judge Roy Bean.
The "cartoon" breakdown on Milwaukee TV at the time was as follows. Channel 6 had the
theatrical Popeyes, plus Rankin-Bass' WIZARD OF OZ and Trans-Lux's COURAGEOUS CAT; Channel
12 had the made-for-TV Popeyes and "Bozo" cartoons, the WB theatrical package, and some
new stuf from Halas-Bachelor (SNIP SNAP et al) and Rankin-Bass (PINOCCHIO). Channel 18 had
the Columbia KRAZY KATS and SCRAPPYs, plus the Van Beurens and some Paramounts from the
NTA Package. Channel 4 had the made-for-TV MR. MAGOOs and a package of foreign cartoons.

Wow. The show was a one-season show in 1974-75. Seems odd that WCBS would air this four
years later.

Apparently, WCBS put that show up in this time slot in place of Bonkers! (the British-produced
comedy show hosted by The Hudson Brothers and featuring legendary British comedian Bob
Monkhouse as a regular, and on which Karen Valentine was to be a guest on this night, based on
TV Guide - the switch was mentioned in the New York papers), the latter of which was shunted
to late Saturday night/early Sunday morning after the early morning slides-only newscasts and
before The Late Show II for the remainder of the time it was on.
However, it underscores why I cite multiple sources for TV listings, because newspaper listings
would be more updated than what TV Guide had on many occasions. Which would put me
ahead of some other posters who don't even cite one source.

I think that request was meant for me. At any rate, I don't
have any Carolina-Tennessee listings for Nov. 18, 1978, but
I do for Kentucky and will post those.

Was this a local program, or reruns of the Saturday morning NBC series (which ended in 1976)?

My guess is Wometco Home Theater programming indeed followed; my question is, did Channel
67 in Smithtown simulcast Channel 68 at this time?

As for the calls of the other translators for the other stations:
WCBS-TV: W53AA (now WKOB-LD)

WNBC-TV: W57AB
WNEW-TV: W64AA
WABC-TV: W66AA
WOR-TV: W71AK
WPIX: W73AP (now WEBR-CD)
WNET: W75AM
WNJU-TV: W62AA
Still unknown: the translator calls for WNYC-TV 31's Ch. 79.

TV Guide didn't usually list programs from over-the-air pay services back then. As for WSNL/67,
they left the air back in 1975, and did not return until December of '79. A year later its local
ownership sold 67 to Wometco(WWHT/68's owner), and WSNL started simulcasting WWHT's

signal.
The two stations are now owned by Univision and are affiliates of Telefutura.

CBS did not offically program the 1pm slot until 1980 when Y&R went to 1 hour. Some stations
(NYC for example) aired the networks 4pm ofering at 1pm then when CBS programmed at 1pm
then some stations programmed the 4pm program at 12pm. I guess some affilates put Sunrise
Semester in the 1pm slot instead of the early morning slot. Until the late 70's (1978 I think) ABC
was the only network that programmed at 1pm.
"18" America Alive!--Jack Linkletter
35 aired the 30 minute version, according to the archives on the board WSLS in Roanoke also
aired the 30 minute version to air local news at 12:30pm.

I guess some affilates put Sunrise Semester in the 1pm slot instead of the
early morning slot.
1:00-1:30pm ET was the closed-circuit feed time for Sunrise Surprise in that era
(for air at various early-morning times the next day) as it was a dead half-hour
on both the NY (1:00 ET/12:00 CT) and left coast (12:00 PT) feeds.
Mountain time zone stations would of course be playing "catch up" by airing
a kinnie of Ding Dong School from 1958 at 5:30am. ;D

Castleman and Podrazik, in "The TV Schedule Book,"
show Sunrise Semester on CBS at 1 PM, but I don't
recall ANY CBS affiliate airing it at that time (can you
imagine the lousy ratings?). I believe it was indeed
a closed-circuit feed to the affiliates for broadcast
between 5:30 and 7 the following morning.
I have an Atlanta edition of TV Guide from 1978 that
shows WRCB Chattanooga carrying America Alive for
30 minutes, but WCWB (now WMGT) Macon carrying
the full hour. America Alive was pre-empted in Atlanta;
then-NBC affiliate WSB ran local news at noon, followed
by Liars Club at 12:30.

Of course Atlanta started the noon time slot for local news. Channel 17 picked up some of the
programs including Jeopardy!. Channel 17 and Jeopardy! have had a lot of success in the TV
industry today.

I find it odd that The Young and The Restless was pre-empted on WCPO...
Until the late 70's (1978 I think) ABC was the only network that programmed at 1pm.
This is indeed true. I can't remeber when exactly Days of Our Lives switched over to 1PM, but I
believe it was around the same time Another World expanded to 90 minutes, and it was there
when Texas made its debut as after Another World went back to being 60 minutes, they changed
its timeslot to 2PM ET. The Doctors would move to 12:30, then spend its last miserable months
at 12 Noon after Search For Tomorrow moved to NBC.
On CBS, after Love of Life was moved to 4PM and subsequently cancelled, Young and the
Restless moved from Noon to 1PM until the summer of 1981, when CBS moved to 12:30, where
it has remained for 25 years.
By the way, I noticed at least one NBC station aired "For Richer, For Poorer", formerly known as
Lovers and Friends in a 4PM timeslot. Interestingly, Septermber 29th, 1978, which is the Friday
on the week posted, would be the last day for this almost a spinof of Another World.
Even a broken clock is right twice a day...<br /><br />Courage couldn't have come at a
worse time...<br /><br />If there is one thing in this world that makes grown adults act like
immature bufoons it is the discussion of politics

I believe that The Young And The Restless has maintained the same 11:00 AM Central timeslot
ever since it premiered in March 1973 on many stations. Some stations have carried it at 11:30
AM while in the 90's it even aired in the afternoons on some stations including KENS-5 San
Antonio where it aired at 3:00 PM in the afternoons back in the mid 90's,but that didn't work
out,so it went back to 11:00 AM where it has been ever since.

Indeed it has, especially when CBS began the 12ET/11 CT feed for the stations in the Central(and
some Mountain) time zones.

A few replies:
Days Of Our Lives went to 1 PM in 1979, and it was
indeed when Another World went to 90 minutes. For
about a year and a half, NBC had Days at 1, The Doctors
at 2, and Another World at 2:30. On August 4, 1980,
Texas debuted at 3, Another World was cut back to an
hour and moved to 2, and The Doctors moved to 12:30.
It's not so unusual that The Young And The Restless wasn't
airing on WCPO at the time; WBTV Charlotte didn't pick it
up until it went to an hour, and I think that's also true
of WTVT Tampa/St Petersburg. I believe there was a point
in the '70s when WCPO showed only the Procter & Gamble CBS
soaps: As The World Turns, Guiding Light, Search For Tomorrow,

and Edge Of Night (when it was on CBS), meaning that Love
Of Life was pre-empted as well. And while most CBS affiliates outside
the Eastern time zone show Y&R at 11 AM, there are a few that
run it at 11:30: KCBS Los Angeles, WBBM Chicago, KTVT Dallas/
Ft. Worth, and WTVF Nashville come to mind. LA and Chicago have
their midday news at 11, Dallas has Jeopardy! at 11, and Nashville
has its local infotainment show Talk Of The Town.

The lack of "General Hospital" being carried in Dayton (including the early 80s Luke and Laura
heyday) lasted until just a few years ago.

I just remembered that Proctor&Gamble is based out of Cincinnati. That explains it about WCPO
I guess! ;D

About Bob Braun, he had a fairly decent syndication
in his part of the country. Besides the stations in
Columbus, Cincinnati, and Dayton, he was on:
WTHR/13 Indianapolis
WHAS/11 (later WDRB/41) Louisville
WLEX/18 Lexington, KY
WSAZ/3 Charleston/Huntington, WV
WZTV/17 Nashville
WBIR/10 Knoxville
At one point (late '70s or early '80s) Multimedia,
at the time owner of WLWT, WBIR, and WZTV,
wanted to take Braun national. He refused, saying
he'd have to stop spotlighting local and regional talent.
By this time, shows like Mike Douglas and Merv Griffin
were on the wane, and since Braun was more in
that vein than he was in Phil Donahue's, I wonder
how long he could have lasted nationally? Probably
not very long.
I remember seeing Braun on commercials for an
adjustable bed. He died in 2001, age 71.

Most of the stations that broadcasted the shows were NBC affilates. The noon time slot
preempted the 12pm and 12:30pm slots on NBC. When did the show move out of the 12pm slot
because when NBC programmed the 1pm slot, the show either had to be cut to 60 minutes or
move to 11:30am.

I remember WLEX, NBC in Lexington, carrying the last
hour of Bob Braun (12:30-1:30) in the late '70s, even
after Days Of Our Lives moved to 1 PM. All three NBC
affiliates in the Kentucky edition of TV Guide continued
to carry Days at 1:30; WLWT, of course, had Braun,
while WAVE/3 Louisville had Mike Douglas at 12:30.
I don't remember how Chs. 3, 5, and 18 handled The

Doctors (probably aired it in the morning on a day-behind
basis).
WSAZ, on the other hand, ran Braun on tape at 9 AM,
and kept the NBC soaps in pattern.
WHAS (CBS then) also carried an hour of Braun (12:30-
1:30) and ran Young And The Restless and Search For
Tomorrow on a day-behind 9-10 AM (they had a noon
newscast). WBIR, also CBS then, carried Braun at 9,
IIRC, and ran the CBS soaps in pattern.

Crosley/Avco stations
From wikipedia...
"In the 1950s and 1960s, Crosley (or Avco) operated is own small television network in which
programs were produced at one its stations and broadcast on the other Crosley stations in the
midwest, and occasionally by non-Crosley stations as well. Since all of the Crosley television
stations in Ohio were affiliated with NBC(with the exception of WLWI in Indianapolis, Indiana
affiliated with ABC), the Crosley programming fit into the NBC network program schedule, and
some programs were even picked up for broadcast by the entire NBC network, such as
Midwestern Hayride and Breakfast Party. Other programs originated on the Crosley (or Avco)
network included The Paul Dixon Show and The Ruth Lyons 50-50 Club, later hosted by Bob
Braun. The Phil Donahue Show started in 1967 originating from WLWD in Dayton, Ohio".

From http://www.enquirer.com/editions/200...r_hayride.html
"The [Midwestern] Hayride, one of Cincinnati's first weekly series, was a local TV fixture until
1972. For the 1955-56 TV season, NBC aired a half-hour Hayride on Wednesday nights.
Throughout most of the 1950s, the Hayride was a summer replacement series on NBC or ABC,
giving national exposure to the homegrown or regional acts".
Avco syndicated Hayride to 90 stations nationwide, beginnning in the late 1960s. The show,
started originally on WLW radio in 1938...moved to TV in 1948. Ended its run in 1972.

When did Dennis Prager ever have a TV show?
Was it one of those where they just stick a camera in the studio during his radio show?
No -- during the 1994-1995 season, Praeger also had a traditional television talk show with a
studio audience, just like what Rush Limbaugh had around that time.

Shows how much I've remembered about the original series . . . as for Hatch the actor, he was
subsequently in the newer version of BG as Tom Zarek . . . he also lasted one season on Dynasty,
and of course he replaced Michael Douglas as Karl Malden's partner on The Streets of San
Francisco.

Re: Retro: Detroit/Toledo Mon, Nov 22, 1965
WXYZ 7-ABC Detroit
6:30 News (Bill Bonds/local news films in color; Bonds would move to KABC Los Angeles in 1968,
returning to Detroit in 1971; later in his career, he would anchor for WJBK and now co-hosts a
radio show with fellow newsman Rich Fisher on WCAR radio)
Let's not forget Mr. Bonds' stint with WABC New York in 1975 (co-anchoring the 11 P.M. edition
of Eyewitness News with Roger Grimsby during Bill Beutel's run with the short-lived AM America
that year, then after Beutel returned to WABC Bonds remained at the 11 P.M. edition, co-
anchoring with once-and-future Boston anchor Tom Ellis) which continued until fall 1976, after
which he returned to WXYZ for the third time.
Meanwhile, it should be noted that WXYZ was the first of the ABC stations to have a movie skein
called The 4:30 Movie, from the moment it moved to that time slot (from 6 P.M.) on May 20,
1968. It would be another eight months (approximately) before WABC first used that title - by
which their movie show had been at 4:30 since Jan. 8, 1968.
Shouldn't the 3:25 PM newscast anchor on WTOL be
Douglas Edwards? He did a five-minute CBS newscast
between "To Tell The Truth" and "Edge Of Night" at
the time. Or was there a local anchor in Toledo named
Don Edwards?
I'm guessing the latter, but I don't know enough about Toledo TV to say one way or the other ???
I would say Don Edwards was local to Toledo, based on this 1970 ad..
http://vintagetoledotv.squarespace.c...ws-ads/2160705
Oddly enough, WJW-TV 8 in Cleveland also did the 3:25 news locally, rather than pick up the CBS
feed.

Re: Retro: Detroit/Toledo Mon, Nov 22, 1965
Don Edwards came from WNEM-TV in Flint, MI to WTOL in 1962. He was a newsman at channel
11 for years but also worked at Toledo's WDHO-TV 24 later in his career.

Re: Retro:Cleveland/Akron Thursday, November 28, 1968
Did WUAB/43 actually do a real noon news show in 1968? Or was it one of those things where
the booth announcer read headlines while a slide appeared onscreen?
Interesting that WAKR/23 actually carried the long-running City Series football Thanksgiving Day
championship game (on tape delay in this case).

The "Doonesbury" program that NBC aired at 9:30 PM - I'm guessing one Garry Trudeau was
involved with it...

As were animators John and Faith Hubley, although John died before the project was completed.
The plot had to do with whether or not the original characters should shut down their commune
and move into condos; the kids in Joanie's day-care center are already into the yuppie
movement
(one wants to be an anthropologist; another, an accountant). Most of the voice actors' names
are not familiar but one, the Rev. William Sloane Coffin, provided the voice of the Rev. Scott
Sloan.

And how 'bout that rock and roll version of the Nativity with the 3 Kings playing guitars and
belting out "O Come All Ye Faithful" and the 4th. verse of "We Three Kings Of Orient Are?" Now
that was something!

Which somehow reminds me of the episode of "Animaniacs"
where Yakko, Wakko, and Dot go back in time to Bethlehem
and play a jazzed-up version of "The Little Drummer Boy" for
the baby Jesus.

Coffin was Trudeau's role model for Sloan, in much the same way that Uncle Duke is a takeof on
Hunter Thompson.

Re: Retro: Kentucky Fri, Nov 28, 1958
Very possible that Ch. 27 could have picked up a feed from Ch. 12,
since both were owned by Taft Broadcasting at the time. I think they
also moved to ABC (along with sister station WBRC Birmingham) about
the same time in the early '60s.
I noticed "County Fair." That show, hosted by Bert Parks and announced
by Kenny Williams (Bob Quigley was one of the show's producers and would
make Williams the "voice" of most of his and Merrill Heatter's shows in the '60s
and '70s), had a regular feature in which a celebrity guest would literally try
to punch his/her way out of a paper bag using boxing gloves. In Arthur Shulman
and Roger Youman's "How Sweet It Was" there's a picture of Frank Giford about
to attempt the stunt; he failed. One day a prop caught fire and injured a contestant;
there were some tasteless jokes about the show's being renamed "County Flare."
The show was one of several failed attempts by NBC to compete with "American
Bandstand" on ABC and "Edge Of Night" on CBS; the next would be a Goodson-Todman
show, "Split Personality," hosted by a fine panelist but not-so-great an emcee, Tom Poston
(I don't think Poston ever gave the appearance of being in charge, having been a second
banana to Steve Allen and, later, to Bob Newhart).
BTW, "County Fair" began as a radio show in the 1940s; its hosts included Win Elliot and
Jack Bailey. I've never heard the radio show but since Bailey was a onetime carnival
barker, he should have been perfect for a show like this.

Alas, 'tis a shame that Bailey was hosting Queen for a Day at this point . . .

I also notice this is the era of ABC's "Operation Daybreak," its
first attempt at a full daytime schedule. The results were mixed.
One of the shows, "Chance For Romance" with John Cameron Swayze hosting a
"Dating Game" forerunner, would have its last broadcast the
following Friday. Dick Van Dyke's game show "Mother's Day"
ended on January 2, 1959. Peter Lind Hayes' show lasted until April 10,
1959 (he was more successful subbing for Arthur Godfrey),
as did Liberace's.
OTOH, "Beat The Clock" (taken from CBS) lasted until 1961; the daily
version of "American Bandstand" until 1963 (and the weekly until 1987,
plus a couple more years in syndication and on USA); "Who Do You Trust?" until
1963; "Day In Court" until 1965.
It would be almost five years before ABC launched a full-fledged soap,

and it looks like it will be the network's last: "General Hospital."
And as for Jack Bailey: since he wasn't available Bert Parks made an acceptable
carnival barker; he was certainly loud enough. My dad was in a restaurant in
Atlanta one night back in the '70s or '80s and still tells me he could hear Parks
holding court in an adjacent room, his voice audible all over the place.

Interesting that the ABC affiliate in Cincinnati didn't clear American Bandstand, opting instead to
run something called "The Bean." A local show perhaps? Why else would they not run one of the
most popular shows on ABC's schedule?
One ABC affiliate that never aired Bandstand was WJZ in Baltimore. They had their own local
dance party show (the Buddy Deane Show) which aired for two hours every afternoon and on
Saturday too, and was the inspiration for John Waters' "Hairspray." Mentioning Bandstand in
Baltimore will just get you a quizical stare.

I can only assume that WCPO was locked into "The Bean" when "Bandstand" started ("The Bean"
was indeed a local kids' show, but not being from Cincinnati I can't tell you anything about it; I
post Kentucky listings--although not this time--only because I'm interested in Louisville).
"Bandstand" did begin airing in Cincinnati sometime in 1959, when WCPO was still the ABC
affiliate.
I suppose with their own local dance party, Baltimore viewers wouldn't have cared for
"Bandstand," even when it originated just up the road in Philadelphia. But couldn't people in the
Baltimore area who wanted to watch Dick Clark have done so on WMAL/WJLA?

A correction.....
Marcia Yockey actually started with WFIE the day they signed on. She moved to Channel 7 and
remained there until around 1971 before moving back to WFIE where she spent the rest of her
career.

Ah...didn't realize she started with WFIE at their sign-on...I was surprised to see her listed for ch
7, given her long association with ch 14...

Re: Retro: Manitoba/Saskatchewan Mon, Dec 1, 1969
ABC News at midnight? ABC dropped its 11 PM newscast,
except on weekends, several years earlier, and "Nightline"
was about a decade in the future. So just what was this
newscast on the Pembina, ND, ABC affiliate?
Also, was Knowlton Nash the CBC's main anchor then?

Frank Reynolds was listed as the presenter of the midnight newscast listed on ch 10-that was the
only night that week that it was listed for ??? CBC's main anchor at the time was Warren Davis;
IIRC Nash may have been a CBC exec at that point...

That channel 5 cable thing is interesting. Don't think I've ever heard of two stations
sharing a cable channel.
They're getting a lot of Atlanta stations. And there seems to be a lot unnecessary CBS/ABC
duplication.

They're getting a lot of Atlanta stations. And there seems to be a lot unnecessary CBS/ABC
duplication.
That's-a-the way it wuz back in ole timey days, hoss. Other posts have dealt with multiple
markets on one cable system, and that's how 12 channels got filled up in the days before the
likes of the Chicken Noodle Network, WGN from Chi-cogger, and Eeeessspeeenn. Where I grew
up in Alabama, we got Huntsville (all three and Alabama Public Television), Birmingham (ABC and
NBC), AND Nashville (all three) in the early Seventies. The first non-market station was, of
course, WTCG--same as Tallahassee in this listing.
What's perhaps curious about things is the fact that WXIA, the third-ranked station in the market
back then, got a channel all to itself while the top two stations, WSB and WAGA, had to be
shoehorned. Actually, there was only one full CBS on the cable, local channel WCTV, while there
were two other NBCs (WALB in Albany and WMBB in Panama City) and no fewer than three ABCs
(local WECA, WXIA and Panama City's WJHG). It would have made better sense to allocate a full
channel to WAGA and make WSB split with WXIA. But I suspect financial considerations came
into the mix here as the cable company decided on what Atlanta stations to carry.
Think about this fact: Tallahassee is over 250 miles away from Et-lanter (as we say it down here
in Dixie, boys), and the Big Three certainly had to use microwave relays. Now we know that
Terrible Ted Turner set up, before getting on the beam up in outer space, an extensive system of
them to carry WTCG into all of Georgia, most of South Carolina and Alabama and maybe eastern
Tennessee (Chattanooga at least). I imagine it's possible that WSB, WAGA, and WXIA may have
leased space on Turner's equipment. This would make sense when you realize that, even to this
day, much of South Georgia still does not have one or more networks OTA yet--the area around
Valdosta, to my knowledge, only has CBS (formerly an ABC affil), which is a semi-satellite of
Tallahassee's WCTV. WSB, now with ABC, is carried on many if not most cable systems in the
region (WXIA probably also, since the area's in a dead spot between Albany's WALB and
Savannah's WSAV). I'm not sure about WAGA, which is, of course, now FOX (its weekday
newscasts, though, are available on-line for those interested in, say, news about Georgia state
government).
In fact, Wikipedia claims that WSB is carried in almost the entire state (except for the
southeastern coastal region, served by Savannah's WJCL, and the area around Augusta, where
WJBF's signal is dominant), even into the extreme western part of North Carolina and extreme
eastern central Alabama.
One thing is for certain, though: the Atlanta stations probably disappeared of Tallahassee's cable
systems in the mid-1980s, when an NBC affil started up, WTWC, and the basic cable revolution
got underway. Dunno about Panama City and Albany, though; they might have stayed on
somewhat longer.

Many communities, mainly those not in major markets, had a channel shared by more than one
out-of-town affiliate -- mainly used as a "wildcard" channel for shows not available locally. In Bay
City, Michigan, Gerity Cablevision (now Charter) had one channel, later two, that was used as
wildcards, carrying WXYZ Detroit, WWTV Cadillac and WOTV (WOOD) Grand Rapids for shows
that the local stations pre-empted or did not carry in syndication.
And I had a 1980 TV Guide from Southern Oregon that I recently gave up to sell on eBay, which
had listings for several wildcards on cable -- some from Portland and others from Sacramento
and/or San Francisco; I thought of keeping it, mainly to present as a retro schedule here
someday, but decided against it, mainly due to the fact that there was no mention on what
community got what wildcard channel (all were listed in the movies and sports page as
"Southern Oregon Cable"; to make matters worse, there were tow channel 6s that were wild
cards).
One thing is for certain, though: the Atlanta stations probably disappeared of Tallahassee's cable
systems in the mid-1980s, when an NBC affil started up, WTWC, and the basic cable revolution
got underway. Dunno about Panama City and Albany, though; they might have stayed on
somewhat longer.
When I was in Tallahassee in 1992, the Comcast system there carried only the local channels,
plus WABW and WALB from Albany -- amazingly, WALB was never blacked out; furthermore,
they had better production quality than WTWC, which looked like it was stuck in the early-1980s.

Happened here in Harrisburg, too...WMAR-2 and WBAL-11 (Baltimore) shared channel space, as
did WPVI-6 and WCAU-10 (Philly)....This arrangement, however, was gone by 1990. The only out-
of-town station that is on what is now Comcast Cable is WPHL-17 from Philadelphia. WPIX-11
was on up until 2005 or so...

Some clarification here, friends: What I meant by the last sentence was that the Tallahassee
cable system paid less per program (or however the rates were structured) to carry WXIA than
either WSB and WAGA, or maybe both put together. This meant that it could aford to have all
WXIA's programs on one channel, while having to cherry-pick from the other two, according to
cost and ratings of a particular show. Since the balance of the daytime sked rested with WAGA,
this indicates that it was cheaper, since it was likely in second place in the Atlanta market, behind
WSB. Only the top-rated WSB shows got cleared as a result, I suspect.
Tell ya what: give me a little time, and I'll post a sked from one of the weeknights, and maybe if
you all are nice, one from one of the weekend days too. BTW, does anybody who worked on
CATV systems back in the day know how things like that worked?

Did syndex also play a role in what programs were shown on cable 5? I believe that rule was still
in efect for another few months, at least.

Wow, they had WXIA and the Atlanta big 3 all the way down in Tallahassee? That's interesting.
That's almost a five-hour drive now, probably more in 1979.

I thought that on your daytime listings for Tallahassee
you showed Ch. 27's local news airing at 5:30 (not uncommon
for ABC affiliates in the '70s although by decade's end more and
more were doing their local news at 6 and "World News Tonight"
at 6:30).

Tis' true, bp. WECA did run local news at 5:30 ET. Sometimes I'd forget my posterior if I weren't
always sitting on it, as they say in my neighborhood. That's why I need good folks like you to
watch everything. One thing that I like about this forum, and I'm not being facetious in the
slightest, is accountability, and folks like bp deliver. Thanks and most sorry for the misleading
statement.
While on the subject, WECA was a little over three years old at the time, the first new station in
the market since 1960, when Florida State University started ETV WFSU. WCTV went all the way
back to 1955, and I suspect that station probably still today "owns" the so-called "Big Bend" area
of the Sunshine State. According to Wikipedia, the station's (now WTXL) main claim to broadcast
history is that it was the first in America to totally take over operations of another commercial
station in the same market (WTWC, on NBC), back in 2001. This arrangement lasted for five
years; they are now separate stations again.

Another mistake sullying my spotless reputation: that should be "checkerboard," which is the
trade term for the 1970s practice of putting weekly shows in a diferent night during PTAR. That
lasted, in the main, from 1971 to about 1980, when shows like Tic Tac Dough and Family Feud
rose like cream to the top of the syndie ratings and the classic nighttime versions of daytime
games largely went out of production.

For a city of it's size I'd say Philadelphia was BEHIND in 1962. I'd expect at least 1 or 2
independent stations there (by 1962).
Not necessarily..Except for New York, Chicago, Los Angeles, St. Louis, Denver and SF/Oakland, No
one really had full blown Independent TV until 1965..(Though Youngstown, Ohio gave it a try
with WXTV-45 in 1960-62)..
In 1965-66 Though, Philadelphia gained 17, 29 and 48..It could be argued that 3 was too many at
that time..
If the original WDEL-7 (Later 12) of Wilmington, Delaware had been able to be kept on the air as
a commercial outlet, It would have the Philly area's first Independent station.
Tim, this link tells part of the story.
http://www.broadcastpioneers.com/wdeltv49.html
I'm surprised Storer couldn't sell Channel 12 to someone else. In fact, Rollins Broadcasting,
which owned WAMS radio in Wilmington, applied for Channel 12. But there was a certain
mentality in the FCC that wanted non-commercial public television stations on VHF, a mentality
that also doomed prospects for DuMont.
Storer could have kept Channel 12..It's not like they didnt have experience running TV
stations..They could have been creative, even as an Independent and made a go of it, I think..

Was this as listed? Its replacement, "Good Morning America", began November 3, 1975.
;D)
Even more so in the 1990s, when they had no local news and plenty of infomercials.

I'm more surprised by CFCF and WVNY rerunning "The Flintstones" twice. Must've been popular
up there in that region.

And was the listing for EDGE OF NIGHT an error? It was a 90-minute ABC debut on this date in
'75, with no GH or OLTL that day, per an online video.

These listings remind me of my vacation in Montreal (during a heat wave) in late July/early Aug.
'75 (my first trip outside the U.S.). My divorced mom and I stayed at Le Reine Elizabeth (The
Queen Elizabeth) on what was then Blvd.-Dorchester (now Blvd.-Rene-Levesque). Didn't see
Vieux-Montreal, but we did visit Man and His World (the former Expo 67 fairgrounds on an
island in the St. Lawrence), drove down to Champlain, NY via Autoroute 15 one day (Quebec's
autoroute signs are very similar to our Interstate signs), and caught an Expos game at Parc Jarry
one night (they beat our Phillies).
Among the TV shows we took in were Happy Days on Burlington's Channel 22 (when'd it become
WVNY?), Tony Orlando and Dawn on WCAX (I remember WCAX's ID slide showing a photo of a
country inn-style sign [that was Vermont, after all] with the station's logo and legal), and CFL
football on CBMT (I remember the Saskatchewan Roughriders as one of the teams playing).
We never did get anywhere near Ottawa or Quebec City.

1. Yep, that was as listed.
2. 22 has had some strange programming decisions, sort of a Vermont version of WVII Bangor

I was wondering about that- it was listed as 90 min, but I thought it was a listing typo, so I listed
it as 30 min...

The station started out as WVNY in 1968, switching to WEZF in 1971 to match with its sister
radio station- the old calls returned in 1982.

Monty Hall and "Cowboy Theater" don't sound like a match
made in Heaven, but Monty hadn't been in the U.S. long and
probably needed the job. NBC billed him as a cowboy from the
Canadian prairie country (he's from Manitoba), but somehow

I suspect his cowpoke skills left quite a bit to be desired.
The audience would get its first good look (sorry, Ernie Kovacs,
wherever you are) at Monty when he subbed for Jack Barry on
"Twenty-One" in the summer of 1958. Soon afterwards came
"Video Village" (replacing Jack Narz) and then, of course, "Let's
Make A Deal."

Monty was a guest on Stu Shostak's Internet Radio Show several weeks back and they had a
good laugh about "Cowboy Theater" as I recall. I had'nt any idea it was on the NBC Network,
rather than just locally in New York..

I'd like to see some 1962-1965 listings from WEWS-TV5. During those years they did live
educational programs for the Cleveland Public Schools in the morning (10-11am or so, I think).
I'd like to know how they were listed. They may have had programs on 3 and 8 too, I don't know.

John:
I would suggest that you check out my vintage TV Blog:
http://clevelandclassicmedia.blogspot.com/
In the top left hand corner is a search engine-type "WEWS 1962" (without quotes) or any year
and you should come up with posts that have listings on them. I believe they did "Cleveland
Classroom" 10:45-11AM when they did carry it, Channel 3 had "TV Classroom" for a while..

TV Guide had a standing practice of saying that CBS's Tuesday-
night news-documentary hour might be pre-empted for a late-news
show. That does not mean that there was always some late-breaking
story, but just in case...

Re: Retro: Louisville Monday, December 4, 1961
To answer my own question, NBC had newscasts at 12:55
with Ray Scherer, and at 4:55 with Sander Vanocur (the latter
pre-empted on Ch. 3); ABC at 1:25 with Alex Dreier. Charles
Collingwood anchored CBS's 3:55 newscast; Douglas Edwards
would take over this when Walter Cronkite replaced him on the
evening news in the spring of '62. "American Newsstand" also
aired on ABC from 4:50-5 PM.

Re: Retro: Atlanta/Chattanooga/Macon Tuesday, December 5, 1972
Apologies: I left out "Captain Kangaroo" from 8-9 AM on Ch. 5;
the "CBS Morning News" was only one hour then. The Captain
aired at 8 AM on 5 and 13; 9 AM on 12 (seemingly a common practice
on Park-owned CBS affiliates since WTVR Richmond and WNCT Greenville/
New Bern/Washington, NC, did the same thing).
Ch. 5 did begin carrying the Captain on a day-behind at 6:30 AM in
the fall of '73; that lasted about a year and a half to two years. By
the time CBS cut him to 30 minutes, Ch. 5 had dropped him completely.

I think when that happened, WANX picked up The Captain and aired the show on a day-delay,
later in the morning (9AM, I think).

Right on all three counts. Channel 46 did air the Captain
on a day-behind at 9 AM.

Re: Retro: Central Pennsylvania Wed, Dec 7, 1966
For those of you not from the Keystone State, around here Central Pennsylvania means "East".
The middle of the state (State College, Altoona) is "West".
Out here in the real Western part of PA we are "Hillbilly Holler" "East Ohio", or "Some mis-
located part of West Virginia". ;D

I remember catching the rerun of "On The Flip Side" on
"ABC Stage 67" during my spring break in 1967. I liked
the music and even bought the soundtrack album; there
was one song I particularly liked, called "They Don't Give
Medals To Yesterday's Heroes." While none of the songs
ever charted, it is a very minor piece of TV history: Ricky
Nelson away from Ozzie and Harriet. But then again, he
already had a pretty successful singing career.

Anyway, if you can find it on Ebay, try to get it; it's not
a bad album.
BTW, I could start a whole thread on "ABC Stage 67," given
that it wasn't exactly what fans of the playhouse shows of
the '50s were expecting; you might get Shakespeare one week,
Truman Capote another, Dick Cavett another, and Ricky Nelson
a fourth. Also, the show smacked too much of Broadway when
the television action had long since moved to L.A. ABC finally
got the message, laid low for a couple of years while NBC presented
its "World Premiere" made-for-TV movies, then altered the concept
of "Stage 67" into "Movie Of The Week," which was a big hit.

What year did WFIL (now WPVI) started to clear DARK SHADOWS? Ironcially, the late great actors
Grayson Hall and Dennis Patrick were from Philly.

Bluenoser, thanks for jogging my memory, as I *vaguely, VAGUELY* remember TV Kitchen on Ch.
6 (back when my parents were still married [I turned 5yo in '66 and my first memory of the
Beatles was as Sat. morning 'toon characters on ABC, but that's another thread]).
Also, anyone who can answer, did Floyd Kalber or Nancy Dickerson anchor the NBC News
updates at 10:25 and 4:25? I vaguely remember them doing so. (A few years ago, I did watch
online an old WMAQ 10:00p CT newscast of Kalber's. I assume Kalber did his updates on the
network from Chicago. Did Dickerson?)

As of December 1966, the five-minute NBC News updates in the daytime were anchored by the
following:
10:25 A.M. - Sander Vanocur (in color)
12:55 P.M. - Edwin Newman (presumably in B&W, if TV Guide is of any indication; preempted in
Philadelphia due to KYW's airing The Mike Douglas Show from 12:30-2 P.M.)
1:55 P.M. - Nancy Dickerson (in color; likewise preempted in Philly because of Douglas)
4:25 P.M. - Floyd Kalber (in color, indeed from Chicago)
By 1967-68, the 1:55 P.M. edition was ixnayed and Ms. Dickerson replaced Mr. Vanocur on the
10:25 A.M. 'cast, where she would remain up to her departure from the network in 1970.
Oh, and what was called "ABC News" at 2:55 P.M. on WFIL was actually News with the Woman's
Touch, sponsored by Purex and anchored by Marlene Sanders.

And this is a classic why? As for myself, I have a hard time rapping my brain around the fact, that
many people who post on this board weren't born until I was in college. I was a freshman in
1970, and I got my first job out of college in 1982, so I think of TV classics as those TV shows
aired between 1948, and 1968, and those who weren't born until 1980 or so, may not even have
a clue as to what TV was like back then. Try:
http://www.tcfnostalgia.com
But besides that, I have always thought of an antique as being 50 years old or more, and a classic
as being something that is 25 years old or more that has endured the test of time. While there
are some classic shows that are still on tv in 1995, even in detroit, I have to ask, How is a
schedule repleat with cheap talk shows and payed programing reflective of "Classic or vintage
TV"? One of the most enjoyable things about TV as it was 60 years ago was that each station had
it's own personality because each station had it's own booth announcers, News presentations,
and other things about it that made it an entity unto itself. Now a CBS O&O is just like any other
CBS O&O and it doesn't matter if you are in Michigan, Ohio, or New York, and that is sad. Also,
check out Tub Tub TV, and some of the Nostalgia channels on the TVU networks web site that
have been posted about lately on this board, and sit back and watch. It's about as close as you
can come to the "old days". I have offten thought about the viability of starting a web site that
would play old public domain TV shows and include station IDs, pretend Newscasts, and other
local programs that would be like the old days. Such as Meditations and farm reports and other
things that you don't see any more. I have talked about it before on this board.

How about: it's classic by default simply because it's not current. Kinda like the argument, "when
is a song really an oldie"... to an extent, anyway.
By the way: I'm willing to bet that WXYZ's airing of "Matlock" at 8 PM on this day was a pre-
emption of whatever ABC was airing at that hour.

While WXYZ used "Matlock" as pre-emption fodder, it may actually have been an ABC program --
the network picked up "Matlock" from NBC in 1992 and carried the last three seasons, ending in
May 1995.

I wonder if it was called CityPulse back then.

According to Wikipedia (usual disclaimers apply), the CityPulse name wasn't used until
1977...the listings didn't indicate what the title was at that time. For the record, CBLT used 24
Hours while CFTO used their long time World Beat News title.

That being said, WBZ also carried "Que Pasa USA?", which was another PBS program (as was
"Carrascolendas", though that series also got clearance on some commercial stations).

Tried to fix the schedule, but there appears to be issues posting.
Note that 2:30 PM WBZ should read "In Search Of..."

What TVG edition did these listings come from? As it excluded WGBX, it apparently was from an
edition not local to Boston.

Boston edition.
Upon further research, WGBX was of the air from November through December of 1980 for
transmitter repair.

Speaking of public TV as we were, I had a strange dream that I was watching a Carrascolendas
episode with Agapito screaming in horror at something. Then the screen faded to black and Dick
Cavett was saying "Daily Reading Time Part 2...." And there was a sign language interpreter at
the top right of the screen. After that, I don't remember.
I'll tell you, I used to watch Carrascolendas and Villa Alegre in the 1970s. I liked the bilingual
format of both shows, and I guess it gave me a love for learning Spanish. Today, with diferent
Spanish radio and TV stations here in Boston, it's hard to escape it. Amazing, isn't it? We've come
from bilingual TV shows to Hispanic media in 3 decades.

I was a big fan of Que Pasa, USA?, the very well-produced 3-camera sitcom from WPBT. I always
said that, even if you're not bilingual, you'll still get half the jokes! ;D

Why so little programming. Had they just signed on as a new station or did they carry
subscription programming during the rest of the day.

Why so little programming. Had they just signed on as a new station or did they carry

The latter was correct -- they had subscription TV service at the time called Star TV, which ran
evenings and weekends. WQTV expanded their general programming after Star TV succumbed to
rampant piracy in 1983.
That's a Myth - it wasn't rampant piracy.
It was having to compete with PREVIEW on ch.27, 27 had a better advantage - being centrally
located in Worcester, MA they had a greater market reach than 68. The 40 miles diference
between the two transmitters made all the diference.
Did Piracy eventually do in ch27? That and the growth of Cable Television.

Surprising that TVG got the CBS Morning mess so...well...messy. Wasn't "This Morning" always a
7-9am show? This would have been about week #3 of the post "Morning Program"
programming, which did in fact run 7:30-9.

It's like KSHB is running a pledge drive or something.
By the way - I notice how "All My Children" were deemed bas***ds to KAKE (Fox station in
Wichita carried it). :-X
What did 49 air at 6:30 PM?
I think KSHB was running host segments in the block as well IIRC from comments to listings from
here I posted on "another board"...
What did 49 air at 6:30 PM?
They ran Newlywed Game in the time slot.

4:30 ABC Afterschool Special: "Where Do Teenagers Come From?"
Dr. Lendon Smith explains puberty.
Suggestion: whenever you post a schedule that has this type of program, maybe you ought to
have the courtesy of putting down the name of the regularly scheduled program(s) that were
normally seen in the slot. Just sayin'.

Might not be a bad idea. For the record, Ch. 12
normally aired "Six Million Dollar Man" at 4 and "The
Muppet Show" at 5; 32 Alive normally aired "The Waltons"
at 4 and "Laverne & Shirley & Company" at 5; Ch. 36

normally aired "Tom And Jerry And Friends" at 4 and "Carter
Country" at 4:30; its regular 5 PM program, local news, was
obviously not pre-empted, which is why the "ABC Afterschool
Special" aired there at 4.

3:30 Woody And The Rascals

This is Woody Woodpecker and the Little Rascals, I presume? Never seen the Little Rascals
intertwined with cartoons during a half-hour.
Also, any idea exactly what "cartoons" KENS and KXAN aired?

Why was Waco-Temple considered South Texas? There must have not been a separate Central
Texas edition. I can understand why KTVT was included as at the time it was a superstation and
available on most cable systems in the state.
This was pre-KLRU when San Antonio and Austin shared KLRN.

I believe they were also listed in the North Texas edition.

There was no Central Texas edition; KCEN and KWTX were in the
North Texas edition and apparently on enough cable systems in
the Austin area to get included in South Texas, although the two
stations were later dropped from the South Texas edition.
As for the kids' shows, that is Woody Woodpecker and the Three
Stooges on KTBC. KENS, on its "Captain Gus Show," showed the
Paramount/Famous Studios Popeyes, so I suspect they were at
least part of KENS's morning program of cartoons. Don't know
what cartoons KXAN carried.

It was common for commercial stations to carry some PBS shows, mainly "Sesame Street", in
markets where there is no local PBS station. Such was the case for the Rio Grande Valley, where
it was not until 1982 when KZLN, the predecessor of today's KMBH, went on the air.

I actually think it'd be really neat to have Sesame Street and the New Mickey Mouse Club back to
back! It was something I always dreamed of when I was a little kid for Sesame Street and Disney
to collaborate!

8:00 The Steeler & the Pittsburgh Kid (no description listed, what's the story on this? ???)
An hour-long NBC special based on those Coca-Cola commercials.
From IMDB:
http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0257199/
Mean Joe Greene and the Pittsburgh Steelers temporarily adopt a nine-year-old boy and they
learn a valuable lesson from each other. Featured is a dream sequence where the kid plays
quarterback for the Pittsburgh Steelers. This show is based on the popular award-winning 1979
Coca-Cola commercial where Greene trades his jersey in exchange for a coke from a kid. The
commercial was so successful it was run all over the world and diferent versions were
eventually filmed for diferent sports using the top athletes of the day. Henry Thomas, who
played the boy, also played Elliott in Steven Spielberg's E.T. the following year. Shot on location in
Dallas, Texas, and at Texas Stadium. A local semi-pro team was used to fill out the roster.

I take it that NBC pre-empted SNL this week for (live?)college basketball...and WGRZ dropped
that for 'Miracle on 34th Street'?

Re: Retro: Northern Wisconsin/Western Upper Michigan Sat, Dec 17, 1977
The Sex Pistols were scheduled, but cancelled on short notice. Costello, in an unusual move,
started playing one song ('Less Than Zero'), then abruptly stopped, and began playing playing
'Radio Radio'...the song he had wanted to play in the first place, but the producers, for whatever
reason, preferred the other one.

According to the Wikipedia article on the third season, the Sex Pistols had to cancel, as they
were unable to get passports on time:

The Pistols' visa problems were the result of their criminal records. Attractions drummer Pete
Thomas wore a "Thanks, Malc" shirt during "Radio Radio"'s performance--a reference to Pistols
manager Malcolm McLaren.
I remember this broadcast well; in fact, it was my introduction to Elvis Costello. He and the band
were great; still, I would have loved to see Johnny Rotten and the lads on "SNL." Rotten/Lydon's
memorable run-in with Tom Snyder was still two-and-a-half years down the long and winding
road.

7:30 Tommy Faile (local country-music show)
6 PM Arthur Smith
From what I know, bp, Faile was the long-time singer in Arthur Smith's country band for years
before he got his own show. The Smith show was mainly seen in the South Atlantic states and
could well be considered a regional version of the Nashville-based country music shows. Smith
and Faile were both native South Carolinians (who both operated out of Charlotte), according to
Wikipedia; Smith was best known for his 1948 instrumental "Guitar Boogie," which, naturally,
became the theme of the TV show.

I remember Tommy Faile on Arthur Smith's show when I was a kid.
His own show was also seen in Greenville, SC.
I had forgotten the name of the special, "Christmas Is," although I
recognized the story. And yes, it was a holiday staple for years.

Re: Retro: Ireland Sat, Dec 25, 1999
Thanks for that. Theres a picture here http://www.flickr.com/photos/normko/507449913/ of

some of the huge aerials used back then to pick up BBC and ITV in Dublin. Although by that point
people would have been moving over to cable, there is still the odd huge aerial in rural areas.

(20) Viewpoint on Nutrition--probably local
No, it was a nationally syndicated show (based in L.A., I.I.N.M.), lasting from 1970 to 1998, and
hosted by Dr. Arnold Pike. Its theme music was the same as a snippet used from the 1970's into
the early '90's for the sounder of all-news 1010 WINS in New York City.

Oh, another thing. Since the Vanderbilt TV News Archive site was down when I wrote the retro, I
forgot to insert the newscasters on this night. They were:
ABC Evening News: Howard K. Smith, Harry Reasoner

CBS Evening News: Walter Cronkite
NBC Nightly News: John Chancellor

Quincy, Illinois:
(7) KHQA (CBS primary; ABC secondary; now digital 7; PSIP same; NOTE: licensed to Hannibal,
Missouri; ABC available on digital sub-channel now)
(10) WGEM (NBC; now digital 10; PSIP same)
KHQA was exclusively CBS at this point. WGEM, however, was secondary ABC, as indicated
WGEM airing "All My Children" and "Let's Make a Deal." There's a good chance WGEM was
taking those shows from an of-air feed of KTVO.
None of the listed CBS affiliates were clearing "Sunrise Semester" at this point.
6:50
(7) Kup's Farm Komments--local (this is certainly NOT veteran Chicago broadcaster Irv Kupcinet,
known for his "Kup's Show")
"Kup" was Chuck Kuppler, KHQA's farm director. A few years later, KHQA gave him 15 minutes or
so at 7AM, bumping back the "CBS Morning News" to 6AM from the East Coast feed.
(7) Studio 7--local (perhaps music)
This was a local interview show produced at KHQA's Hannibal studio. A few years later, it was
truncated to 15 minutes and aired at 7:15 following Kuppler's farm report. "Romper Room"
eventually filled-out the hour till 8AM; not sure if "Romper Room" was the original show in the
7:30 slot.
12:30
(3) (4) (7) (31) As the World Turns--note ABC affil KTVO tapping in the feed here
KTVO still had a secondary CBS affiliation at this point, and may have even cleared an NBC show
on occasion (KTVO was primary CBS until 1968, with secondary NBC and ABC affiliations). I had
previously believed that KTVO eliminated both "As the World Turns" and "Search for Tomorrow"
from CBS at the same time, but apparently "Search" got bumped of a time before ATWT.
KTVO likely picked up the of-air feed of KCCI (KRNT) in Des Moines for CBS programming, or
possibly KHQA. It's my understanding that KTVO did not have a direct network feed until it
became a primary ABC affiliate in 1968.

Flip Wilson Cartoon--DePatie/Freleng rendition of the comedy star's childhood (no kidding here)
That was what I was watching as a six year old when the Lexington NBC affiliate WLEX was
knocked of the air. Within minutes the CBS and ABC affiliate were of the air. We then tuned to
WHAS-TV Louisville but moments later we lost power. The only local radio station on the air was
WLAP only because they had a generator. Lexington didn't have a touchdown but the events
from earlier in the day and the continuing threat made everyone cautious especially at night.

The name of the special was "Clerow Wilson and the Miracle of P.S. 14", which was first telecast
in 1972. Apparently, Flip Wilson wanted his own "Fat Albert", after the success of Bill Cosby's
animated special on NBC, which led to the long-running Saturday morning series on CBS.

Historical perspective: this was the day that a massive outbreak of tornadoes struck the central
and southern U.S. during the late afternoon and evening hours; programming may well have
been pre-empted after around 4 p.m. or so.
Other than tornado warning bulletins that may have appeared on at least the Peoria stations (for
the McLean and Logan county tornadoes) and on WICS Springfield (for those in Christian, Logan,
Piatt and Macon counties), I don't think there would have been very many programming
interruptions for storm coverage among the stations listed in the old Western Illinois edition, as
the Super Outbreak didn't really get going until east of the Illinois River (but I have read that as
far west as the Peoria area was under a tornado watch that fateful 4/3/1974). See this county
damage link below on this site devoted to the Super Outbreak of 1974:
http://www.april31974.com/county_damage.htm
Another historical footnote about April 3, 1974 in the Midwest: the Wabash Valley Fault was
shaking that day to as a magnitude 4.3 earthquake afected southern Illinois, and caused damage
in Indiana and Illinois, that evening (in the midst of the tornado outbreak). That quake was
centered near West Salem, IL--near the epicenter of the Apr. 18, 2008 quake. That quake in the
midst of the Super Outbreak would have been felt all throughout Western Illinois and as far
away as Arkansas, Iowa, Wisconsin and even as far east as Virginia:

Talk about a feat of memory!!! radiorob, that is truly amazing that you can remember exactly
what TV stations you were watching on the night of the Super Outbreak, something that
happened nearly 40 years ago. I guess it's something akin to people remembering exactly what
happened on the day of the JFK assassination or 9/11. Being six, a tornado had to be something
quite scary for you to boot.

7-8 Christmas Day Mass (live from Boston's Catholic TV Center)
WHDH (formerly WNAC, then later WNEV) still airs the Christmas Day Mass every year on
Christmas Day to this day. It makes sense because it's only once a year, and I'm not sure how
many people are actually watching it. But it is amazing that there is one low-key annual TV
special that still continues. Some things never change.

California (for info about the deteriorating state of that church now, see
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Crystal_Cathedral)
The Crystal Cathedral was recently sold in bankruptcy court to the Diocese of Orange, who will

relocate to one of the diocese's churches while the diocese takes over the Crystal Cathedral
building.

(30) Treehouse Club--local children's show, perhaps?
Actually, this was a syndicated program produced by a ministry in Missouri (I think), which aired

by CKCO-TV Kitchener, which also aired around this time.

"Challenge My Sermon" might work in a lotta places....any sermon may contain God's Word, but
that doesn't make it 100% God's Word.
As to John McKay....as many know, he was at the helm as Tampa Bay lost their first 26 regular
season games. Once he was asked to comment about his team's execution, and he replied, "I'm
all in favor of it!"

I think Talking With A Giant was a Saturday morning show on NBC and possibly a delay from the
day before. I know I've seen TWAG as a Saturday morning show in many retros on here.

That day maked Johnny Carson's 10th anniversary as host of the "Tonight Show," and the start of
his fifth month after moving the show from New York to "Beautiful Downtown" Burbank. When
did the big, lavish special air when they replaced his desk with couches and all of the guests
wore tuxedos?
Here's the only clip I could find on youtube from that show:

It seems as if most of the segments have been removed.

Jerry Falwell's program was called the "Old Time Gospel Hour,"
so you're right in that the "Old Fashioned Gospel Hour" was not
his.
KABC aired "Festival Of Family Classics," which, IIRC, was produced
by Rankin-Bass. I remember WGHP carrying that show on Fridays
at 7:30. There was a separate, live-action "Family Classics" (I don't
know who produced it) which aired on WAGA on Thursdays until about
midseason that year, at which point they moved the nighttime, syndicated
"Price Is Right" (Dennis James) from Friday to Thursday.
Interestingly, there were two animated shows in access time that year,
"Wait Till Your Father Gets Home" being the other. But it would be almost
two decades before the next animated show made it in a nighttime slot and
that, of course, was "The Simpsons."

I've seen 'anniversary shows' from '72 and '74 on YouTube, but they aired in Carson's normal
late-night slot. I recall reading that the prime-time specials were Fred Silverman's idea, because
they were among the few programs guaranteed to get good ratings on NBC in the late '70s. From
what I remember, the 17th anniversary special from 1979 actually went into syndication several
years later(during the era of 'Carson's Comedy Classics') I don't know if '79 was the first time
they marked the anniversary with a prime time show, but NBC continued that practice until
Johnny's last(the 29th) in 1991.

Re: Retro: North Georgia Monday, December 22, 1975
bp, I can tell you for sure school was out by then, as I grew up in an adjoining state in and around
that time--the practice in Alabama was generally to let out on the Friday before Xmas. I'm pretty
sure Georgia and Tennessee did the same, so neither GPB, WETV, nor WTCI had in-school
programming, and they signed on for the day at the time their listings began. AFAIK, special
holiday daytime programming didn't begin until sometime in the late Seventies, a few years later,
and that probably varied from place to place. The stations would have been on "weekend
mode," running a limited schedule and staf during the holidays until school went back into
session. Wonder if the dayshift control room crew would have gotten unemployment, or just
placed on furlough? In much of the country except for the largest stations (e.g., WNET, WGBH,
WTTW), this would have happened during summer vacation, too.
Any ex-PBS station stafers able to fill us in on this?

Wow my memory is fading....I had always thought that "Magnificent Marble Machine" was on at
12 noon during the whole run; but with two NBC affiliates showing it at 12:30, I was wrong. AND
of course being @ 12:30, it was shortened to 25 minutes.
I wonder what the staf did with that pinball machine.....

I had a feeling school might be out but wasn't sure.
As for "Magnificent Marble Machine," I think the reason
for the 12:30 slot was temporary. NBC had just canceled
a show called "Three For The Money," hosted by Dick Enberg,
and a new show called "Take My Advice," with hostess Kelly
Lange, wasn't scheduled to debut until January. With the
Peacock Network experimenting with an hour-long "Wheel Of
Fortune," "High Rollers" was temporarily moved from 11 AM to
noon, and "Magnificent Marble Machine" from noon to 12:30.
According to Castleman and Podrazik's "The TV Schedule Book,"
NBC's 10 AM-1 PM (ET) lineup in the winter of 1976 was:
10:30 High Rollers (new time)
12 N Magnificent Marble Machine
12:30 Take My Advice
12:55 NBC News
So no, your memory is not playing tricks on you.

Wasn't that the game where they mic'd Lou Holtz and he dropped the F bomb live and national?
If so, you could not have asked for a better lead-in than Hee Haw Honeys.

Re: Retro: St. Louis Mon, Dec 25, 1978
It was UCLA's Terry Donahue who was miked, and swore, as the camera zoomed in on him
reacting to a turnover.
Maybe I am thinking of some other bowl game where Holtz was coaching Arkansas.
I know he got into hot water for dropping the F bomb on live TV.
... there was a newspaper strike in the Gateway City at the time...
Does that explain why KSD's late news was expanded by 15 minutes (and did KMOX usually run
an hourlong news program in late night?)?
I don't really know enough about the situation, but that would certainly be a good reason...
Retro: Utah-Idaho, May 16, 1975
Here's a rare one for you mountaineers out there. It even includes a strange TVG channel bullet I
don't think I've seen in any other edition--ever.
Channels in parentheses were originally represented by black bullets; channels in brackets were
represented by white bullets; channels in arrows were represented by split black-and-white
bullets; channels in equal signs were represented by an unusual bullet with horizontal black
stripes and a raised numeral (the strange one forementioned)

Super Friends wasn't yet in syndicated reruns in 1975, so this would have been a tape delay of
the ABC Saturday morning broadcast of the show. If we could see the schedule for other
weekdays, we'd probably see that these two stations were running a checkerboard (diferent
shows on each day of the week) of tape-delayed children's shows.
5:00
<10> Film--wonder what it might have been, with only 30 minutes?
These would probably be short films that were distributed to stations free of charge, typically as
promotional items that also had some educational value -- for example, a steelmaker might
produce a film on the steelmaking process. For the company, it would generate some free PR,
and for the station it would just fill time.
These sorts of films were often used by smaller stations, especially in marginal time periods.

Somebody feel free to correct me where I am wrong about the bullets....
The split-bullet is supposed to represent channels receivable by cable-only from many areas;
WTCG 17 Atlanta (now TBS) had a split 1/7 in the Miami edition. I believe the Albuquerque
edition had the four L.A. independent stations on cable (even before satellite TV was common)
printed that way.
The horizontal-line bullet represents the 3rd most distant co-channel from the home base TV
Guide---closest was always the black bullet w/ white numbers; then was the white bullet w/
black numbers; and any third co-channel had no choice but the horizontal, unless cable
availability (as above).

Not always true: the Minnesota state edition used the split bullet for the PBS station in the far
western part of the state ( KWCM/10 ) from 1995 through the end of the traditional digest. It
was the third channel 10 in the edition and technically part of the Minneapolis market, even
though Appleton, MN is 150 miles due west of Minneapolis/St. Paul!

I don't think I have ever seen an edition with as many VHF PBS affiliates in it.
And this is an all-VHF edition, to boot.

True, this! I didn't even pay attention.....
I could be mistaken, but if not for ch 21 Phoenix, the Mountain time was devoid of UHF until
around 1974ish!

around 1974ish!
Per the 9th Edition of the Vane Jones guide (1973), KPAZ-TV 21 Phoenix AZ & KNCO 22 Ft. Collins
CO were the only full-powered UHFs on the air in the Mountain time zone at that time. That
doesn't include CPs or the many UHF translators in the region, though.

22....of course, some stations were never carried in TVG. If it *was* on, I have no idea what their
programming was.
Yes I meant full power UHFs....

Boy, I am sure glad you guys are on top of things. It never once occurred to me that the region
had no UHFs. The techies among you, I'm sure, understand why, because of the mountainous
terrain of almost all that area (except perhaps the salt flats around SLC). With a population at the
time rather small in comparison to other U.S. regions, there also wasn't the demand for
additional channels, especially independents. That's the reason why cherry-picking on (or, to put
it less pejoratively, "shoehorning" top-rated shows from all networks), for example, Cheyenne's
KTWO and a couple of the other stations continued for a long time in the Rockies after it died
out most everywhere else farther east.
The only editions of TV Guide that I ever saw that used the "striped bullet" were the ones that
served southern Missouri, and a couple of editions in Mississippi and Louisiana. The Missouri
edition had three channel 6's listed: KMOS in Sedalia (IIRC that was the striped 6), KEMV
(Arkansas Public Television, licensed to Mountain View), and (I think) KOTV in Tulsa.
Also, the striped bullet was used to represent KNOE-8 in Monroe, LA, in editions that served
southern Mississippi and southern Louisiana.

As in many areas, things have changed. I notice that the Pocatello NBC affiliate basically
simulcasted the Boise affiliate. That seems so small-time. Eastern Idaho eventually became a
three affiliate market, with local news out of all three, but guess what? Now, the CBS affiliate,
(KIDK), has merged with the ABC affiliate (KIFI), and their news operation is combined. One step
forward, one backward.
The only editions of TV Guide that I ever saw that used the "striped bullet" were the ones that

I've also saw striped bullets used in the Montana and Alberta editions -- Montana to represent
the Salt lake City channels, and Alberta for the Spokane channels.

At the time, KPVI was the sister station to KIVI, which both simulcasted ABC and most syndicated
programs. At one point, KPVI could be sold to another party, and eventually changing affiliations
from ABC to NBC, with KIFI taking the ABC affiliation. (KIVI is still affiliated with ABC today.)

his legendary forecasts:

YouTube has loads of links of Mal on the job, both at ATV10 and his previous stint at HSV7,

10 AM The City That Forgot About Christmas (Sebastian Cabot and Louis
Nye provide voices in this animated tale of a stranger who brings
Christmas spirit to a loveless city.)

10:30 Christmas Is
As mentioned in this thread, "Christmas Is" was...
a boy named Benji is magically taken
Richard Susceno, Don Messick, and Coleen Collins
Both these specials were produced by Lutheran Television, and, after the former was produced,
was generally seen together. "The City That Forgot About Christmas" also had a long life, seen
into the 1980s on both secular and Christian stations.

bp, thanks, old pal. I was running out of steam on my retro marathon and was waiting to see if
you would cover Xmas 1975 before I posted one from the Nashville edition for that date. Happy
holidays to ya!
Two things: wonder if WSB preserved the Governor's Christmas special that morning in their
archives, which are housed at UGA in Athens, and wonder why WAGA didn't clear the CBS NBA
game? Must've figured that no one in the ATL was interested in any team but the Hawks, that
would be my guess. ABC and NBC were just running their regular skeds in the afternoon, with no
special holiday shows, so competition wouldn't figure into it.

Why don't you post the Nashville listings anyway? I, for one,
would like to see them.
I don't know if Channel 2 preserved the Busbees' Christmas special,
but I do know that Channel 5, as a rule, did not carry CBS's NBA coverage,
then or later. When WATL/36 came back on the air in 1976 it became Atlanta's
NBA station (Channel 17, of course, carried the Hawks but that was their own
crew doing the games and not CBS's).
Although the Hawks have been in Atlanta since moving from St. Louis in the
late '60s I don't know how much of a draw they've been, either live or on television.
I do recall, when I was in high school, that Channel 2 carried them for a year or two,
then Channel 11 had them for a couple of years (they were on that night in December
1970 when Lester Maddox walked of "The Dick Cavett Show") before finally moving to 17.
(It always fascinated me that when 11 had the Hawks, the games were carried in Greenville/
Spartanburg/Asheville, Charlotte, and Greensboro/Winston-Salem/High Point but not in
Birmingham.)
Hockey has never been a draw; both the Flames and Thrashers moved to other cities.
I remember in 1972, when the Flames began play, Channel 2 carried their games, but not
for long--neither did 2 care about carrying Sunday-afternoon NHL games when they moved
from CBS to NBC. You will, however, find the NBA on 2 this Sunday, and 11 carries NBC's
NHL coverage.
Probably more than you wanted to know, but once you get past baseball and football, sports
are not the biggest television draw in Atlanta.
Anyway, happy holidays to you and your family too!

Re: Retro: Nashville, Dec 25, 1975
For those of you who did not read the Dan Miller thread, longtime WSM/WSMV weathercaster
Bill Hall, who was on the station between 1974 and 2005, died on December 23 at the age of 65.
At the time of this retro, Hall was working as a weekend weathercaster, so he may well have
done the weather on this date, filling in for weeknight man Pat Sajak, who would stay at WSM
for about another year and a half before going to L.A. Hall got his big break then and became the
weeknight weatherman. The others on the desk on weeknights then were, of course, the
legendary Dan Miller with the news and Paul Eells (then also the radio voice of Vanderbilt sports,
later with the Arkansas Razorbacks) on sports. Dave Daughtry, now a radio talk show host in
Pensacola, Florida, may have left WSM by this point; he had been Miller's co-anchor for almost
all the early 1970s; both men replaced one of the original channel 4 newsmen, Jud Collins, when
he stepped down in 1970. Carol Marin, later a fixture on Chicago TV news, was Miller's first
female co-anchor, beginning in 1976.
Chris Clark, of course, helmed things at WTVF, the CBS affil. As for ABC affils WNGE and WBKO, I
have no idea.
Also: the day of the week was Thursday, to address one poster's complaint.

Jack Hawkins was likely the main anchor for WNGE. I know in early 1975, he did the 5:30 news
on channel 2.

Where's channel 17 (now WZTV)?
Singing Convention- Southern Gospel. Originated from Knoxville, TN's WBIR-TV-10. Hosted by
the late J. Bazell Mull and his wife, Lady Mull. A Tennessee, Georgia, and Kentucky TV fixture for
over 40 years. J. Bazell Mull's daughter still lives and owns the Knoxville/Seymour FM station on
96.3 WJBZ-FM. One of the best religious stations to this day.
No, no, I remember this program personally. It was a local WLAC/WTVF production, probably
purchased airtime from a local organization (not a church, though). The Mull show was
syndicated and only aired weekly; the Nashville show aired each weekday until about 1976 or so.

WZTV would not start up until March 1976, when, after five years of darkness, channel 17 would
resume operations. The original channel 17 aired between 1968 and 1971, under the calls
WMCV. As one might guess, it was another UHF that didn't cut much ice in the presence of the
long-standing VHF network affils. Nashville was really too small at the time to support a fourth
commercial station; the population grew significantly in the early Seventies, though, and by '76
there was a firm enough footing to try again. This time, it took of.
However, it does not hold the distinction as Tennessee's oldest station not affiliated with one of
the historic "Big Three" networks. That belongs to Chattanooga's WDSI, started as WRIP, channel
61, in 1972. Both WZTV and WDSI, not surprisingly, are today FOX affils.

Hold up - how in the world did this show end up on Channel 5? I don't think it lasted enough
episodes to warrant syndication.
Also, why is "Monster Rancher" on both Channel 5 (3 PM) and Channel 20 (7 AM)?

Hold up - how in the world did this show end up on Channel 5? I don't think it lasted enough
episodes to warrant syndication.
100 episodes were produced, which was just enough for syndication. However, reruns of
"Unhappily Ever After" did not hold up as well as the similar series, "Married With Children", and
was withdrawn from syndication in 2001.
Also, why is "Monster Rancher" on both Channel 5 (3 PM) and Channel 20 (7 AM)?
I wonder about that, as at the time, Viacom still owned WDCA -- it would not be until around
2001 when Fox would buy that station.
Um, new episodes of Monster Rancher would be broadcasted in Syndication on WDCA, while
reruns aired on Fox Kids (WTTG)

According to Gil Fates, interviewed in Jef Kiselof's
"The Box," none. And that's given that the contestants
had been through the ringer: they'd played a proto-"Jeopardy!"
called "Answers In The Questions," they'd performed "Beat The
Clock"-type stunts, and I don't know what else, yet all they got
was a handshake.
I also noticed the name Adriana Caselotti on Ch. 1. She was
the singing voice of Snow White in the Disney classic, and I think
stayed active for several more decades.

Christmas on TV 65 years ago was a subdued afair, although a light schedule for television in
New York (the only city with multiple stations telecasting regular schedules at the end of 1946)
during the first couple of years after World War II wasn't unusual.
Despite the starting time I have to believe it was live;
I don't think there would have been time to process film
unless the game was played that afternoon, and kinescope
would probably have been a very last resort (no videotape
then, remember).
Another factor is, that early on in TV, as well as radio, If Hockey was aired at all, most times, it
was the third period only that was aired..9:00 or close would have been when the third period
started..
Source; New York Times
WCBS-TV Ch. 2 (CBS O&O)
Evening
9:00-Hockey from Madison Square Garden; New York Rangers vs. Montreal Canadiens (Rangers
win 2-0)
Was this live or a recording?
Kinescopes weren't invented until 1947. The first game to be televised in Canada was in 1952.
Up until the late 60's TV viewers were only allowed to watch the 2rd period. The games were on
the radio at that time. Foster Hewitt invented the phrase " He shoots, he scores!" on a CBC
broadcast.

Re: Retro: New York City, Christmas Day (Wednesday, December 25), 1946
Very interesting that the NHL played games on Christmas at that time.
The Players Association has declined to go along with this in recent years.

That was what I was thinking. However a quick Google told me that there was a full programme
of soccer on Christmas Day in England until the late 1950s, and in Scotland until the early 1970s.
Perhaps the total Christmas shutdown we have on both sides of the pond isn't as 'traditional' as
we might think??

That was what I thought as well. However according to Wiki (which could be nonsense of course)
WNBT came on air in 1941 with live Baseball which they then re-ran a few minutes afterwards.

I wonder how they did that without Kines?

The NHL hasn't played on Christmas since 1971. They do not play on Christmas Day or Christmas
Eve as part of the league's collective bargaining agreement.
I do remember seeing NHL games on Christmas Day in the 1960s.

I doubt they would get away with showing this on television these days... :

actually I think Dr. Clitterhouse is doing a syndicated talk show, running right between
Jerry Springer and Dr. Phil

play the prelude and allemande from Bach's Suite No. 1 and the
courante from his Suite No. 3--and if anybody knows what I'm
talking about beyond the word "prelude" please explain these terms)
The terms refer to dance types -- many of the movements of Bach's suites for cello, orchestra,
keyboard, etc., were written in the style of dance music (though not intended to be actually
danced to).

What year did Channel 13 cleared American Bandstand? According to my TV Guide from June
1970 (Carolina-Tennessee Edition), channel 13 did carried it that year.

I think this TV Guide edition is my favorite (most logical city/station combinations) of all the
Carolina and vicinity TV guides.

What year did Channel 13 cleared American Bandstand? According to my TV Guide from June
1970 (Carolina-Tennessee Edition), channel 13 did carried it that year.
Channel 13 normally cleared "Bandstand"; I think that on this particular Saturday, with a football
game at 2:15, they wanted to get in their Saturday-afternoon movie (more ad revenue, after all)
so "Bandstand" was pre-empted (I know that, when I moved to Greenville, SC, in the summer of
'68 WLOS was carrying "Bandstand" and "Happening '68").
