PM Magazine Chicago - "Rocky Horror" (1981)

Views: 2191

Here's a neat story on The Rocky Horror Picture Show musical that aired on PM Magazine Chicago featuring Mike Leiderman.

This is from the master 3/4" tape of the story, so it doesn't have the PM Magazine graphics that were shown on the off-air version.

Note: The audio on this is in stereo, with Leiderman's story voiceover on one channel and the music in another most of the time. (so if you're only hearing one or the other, that's the reason) I didn't g...

Views: 3181

Here's a brief news clip found at the end of a tape. You can see WXYZ Channel 7 anchors Bill Bonds and John Kelly in the background at the beginning. Lynn Skzynear reports on the death of a young boy from the King family, and has some shots of the Holy Name Church in Birmingham and Holy Name Elementary School. Also features some words of warning by Attorney Pete Leto, before the tape cuts out.

This aired on local Detroit TV likely sometime in early 1977. (not Chicago TV, bu...

Here's a rare clip from Sports Spotlight on WSNS Channel 44 featuring wrestler Verne Gagne demonstrating a sleeper hold move on a couple of TV-44 staffers. Not sure who the first guy is, but the guy with the beard is John Dickinson (who was also the producer on the Money Movie)

Also features Dave Condon - columnist for the Chicago Tribune.

Not sure when this aired -...

Here is Part One of an "Islands" themed episode of Wild Chicago on WTTW Channel 11. Featuring Ben Hollis as host. I believe this was a compilation of segments from earlier shows all with an islands-related theme. Includes:

Views: 2554

Here's Part 5, the last part I have of a (vintage?) Jerry Springer episode on WMAQ Channel 5 dealing with the very delicate (and absorbent) topic of Adult Babies.

Part 5 wraps up the discussion with more questions from the audience. Also includes:

Partial Commercial: Reichert Builders & Brookridge Creek Homes (cut-off)

And, perhaps mercifully, at this point the tape ran out. So we miss Springer's Final Thought or whatever he was doing at the tim...
