WFLD Channel 32 - The Honeymooners (Ending, 1979)

Views: 914

Here's the ending for an episode of The Honeymooners on WFLD Channel 32. The ending theme and specially created colored picture shot (with "zooming text" at the end - or in this case would that be "bang-zooming text"?) are delayed as a voiceover promo for Happy Days Again is played too early (voiceover by Ron Beattie), and is heard over black for a few seconds before cutting off; then after the extended bumper starts, another Beattie voiceover previews upcoming episodes of S...

Views: 467

Here is the eighth in a series of ten, minute-long shorts (or interstitials as they are sometimes known) created by Field Communications for children called Hooray for Reading. These would air during the commercial breaks on kid's shows and cartoons.

Screaming Yellow Theater (Svengoolie) - "Larry Lujack" (1972)

Views: 2605

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 #2 from an unknown episode number features Larry Lujack - "Superjock" disc jockey from (at the time) WLS-AM 890 radio.

I'm thinking that "SYT #1" as the clapboard person says, refers to the fact that it's Movie #1. (2 movies a night were shown for most of the run of SYT)
