WFLD Channel 32 - Son of Svengoolie - "Evil Of Frankenstein" - "Doug Hosts" (1985)

Views: 2150

Here's a compilation of all the "bits" that survived from a recording of Son of Svengoolie episode #316 featuring the movie "Evil of Frankenstein". (there wasn't a whole lot so I just decided to put it all in one)

The notable thing about this episode was that there's no Sven - Rich was absent for some reason and so Doug fills in as host.

Anyone know the real name of the song that Doug does a parody of? Is it by Alan Parsons Project?

Views: 780

Here's a long-form political ad for Ronald Reagan that aired after an ABC Sunday Night Special Movie presentation of "Jaws" (only the 2nd time the movie aired on Network TV). Reagan got the first 4 minutes and 20 seconds, Carter got the next. (broken up by a brief PSA to cleanse the palet, which we see here)

WNBQ Channel 5 - The Dorsey Connors Show (Part 2, 1963)

Views: 1396

Here's Part 2 (the final part) of an edition of The Dorsey Connors Show on WNBQ Channel 5 (which, like most shows of this period, is only available via 16mm kinescope film). Ms. Connors, who died on September 5th 2007, was a fixture on Chicago radio and television in the early years of the latter medium, with a daytime program that was along the lines of shows such as that of Lee Phillip on WBBM Channel 2. But whereas Ms. Phillip continually remade herself (and in the process, remain...

Here's a segment from a demo reel produced by WSNS Channel 44 spotlighting some of the sports shows aired on the station at the time. Included are:

Video animated '44' graphic which started off many a promo in the 1976-77 period

WGN Channel 9 - Garfield Goose And Friends (Break & Ending, 1975)

Views: 3015

Here's a first - the first off-air recording of Garfield Goose and Friends that has ever been found (to my knowledge). Considering the program went off the air in 1976, this is not entirely surprising. (Some apparently erroneous TV listings had it showing again for short periods around 1982, but those have never been shown to be accurate)

This recording was ostensibly made for The Morning Movie presentation of "Sorry, Wrong Number" but luckily for us they started tapin...

(in case you're wondering I was able to date it based on a movie promo that aired right after this clip, as well as other evidence from the program that followed)

Also features a Field Communications ID at the end.
