Son of Svengoolie - "Dr. Rābbees & Transfusion Punch" (1982)
Views: 1533
Here's another classic Son of Sven bit which most likely aired during episode 129 featuring the movie "Tales of Terror" - Dr. Rābbees (Dr. Pepper parody) and Transfusion Punch (Hawaiian Punch parody).
These bits were recycled from an earlier show - anyone know when they appeared originally? Did they always get shown together back-to-back like that?
The backup singers during the Dr. Rabies skit are (from left) Gary Zeleny (WFLD Artist), Susan Uyeda (WFLD A...
Screaming Yellow Theater (Svengoolie) - "Eyeball Calisthenics" (1972)
Views: 2174
Here's a segment from Screaming Yellow Theater - the original Svengoolie, which aired on WFLD Channel 32 from 1970-1973. Svengoolie was played by Jerry G. Bishop.
This Break #6 from an unknown episode number features a Svengoolie "public service" - eyeball calisthenics to help you stay awake!
You also get to see one of the rare times that Svengoolie appears without wearing his sunglasses.
I'm thinking that "SYT Theater #1" as the clapboard person s...

WTTW Channel 11 - "Its A Wonderful Pledge" (1987)
Views: 1947
Here is a hilarious and creative parody piece combining the ethos of Pledge Breaks with the classic film, "It's a Wonderful Life".
Former WTTW staffer and Emmy-award-winning producer Rick Kotrba recalls, "It was originally produced in December 1986 for party festivities at the WTTW studios. I was the writer/creator. The technician who recorded the sound and edited the video was Harvey Moshman.
In March 1987, this abridged version was created for broadc...

WFLD Channel 32 - Son of Svengoolie - "Evil Of Frankenstein" (Promo, 1985)
Views: 1882
Here's another promo for Son of Svengoolie on WFLD Channel 32 where this week the movie was "Evil of Frankenstein". This was episode #316 and aired on Saturday, August 24th 1985. For some reason, Rich Koz was absent that week and so Doug Graves (Doug Scharf) fills in for him on both the promo and as host on the show itself.
Quality is kind of poor, but this is the best available.
This promo aired on local Chicago TV a few days before Saturday, August 24th 1985.

WFLD Channel 32 - Son of Svengoolie - "Terror Beneath The Sea" (Promo, 1980)
Views: 2838
Here's a rare old promo for Son of Svengoolie episode number 40, showing the movie, "Terror Beneath The Sea". This episode aired on Saturday, April 12th 1980 at 8pm.
This is the oldest off-air Sven footage we have so far, and definitely the oldest promo. This was even before they had the Son of Svengoolie theme song (written by Doug Scharf) and instead were still using the old Jerry G. Bishop Svengoolie theme, "Rumble".
This promo aired on local Chicago TV the 2...
