WFLD Channel 32 - Keyfax Nite-Owl Service - "Fuzzy Program Lineup" (Brief Excerpt, 1982)

Views: 2976

It must be static-y Nite-Owl excerpt week because I found another one - a really brief one where you can make out the Program Lineup they were showing for WFLD later that day (I didn't know they would show this!) before the channel switched to what looks like a scrambled movie.

11:00am - Newstalk with Wanda Wells

Screaming Yellow Theater (Svengoolie) - "Show #5 - Duet With Zelda" (1972)

Views: 1311

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.

With no clapboard segments, we can only guess that this was Break #7 (from "Show #5") - although on these master tapes sometimes they didn't save all of the breaks, so this could be Break #8 or Break #9 for all we know. This one features some humorous technical screw-up's as well as a duet between Sven & Zelda - a p...

Son of Svengoolie - Assorted Clips Compilation (Part 3)

Views: 1012

Here is Part 3 of a compilation of assorted Son of Svengoolie clips. I did not make this compilation - it has been floating around the trading circles for a long time, and this is the best copy I've been able to find. It has some neat clips you will not see anywhere else.

Featuring:

Another clip-within-a-clip showing a segment from an earlier show - Tombstone's The Amazing No-Skin!

Burger King - "Broiling Vs. Frying" with Elisabeth Shue (Commercial, 1983)

Views: 3035

Here's another Burger King commercial with future film star Elisabeth Shue, in which she explains that, according to a poll, flame-broiling beats frying by a 3-to-1 ratio - and Burger King does the former.

(Other Burger King commercials with Ms. Shue can be found here and here.)

She can butter my burger any day.

Views: 1814

Here's Part Two of the movie "Mad" on WCFC-TV Channel 38 - our religious station in Chicago - during the program "Liberty Temple Full Gospel News". This feels like something that should be part of the Found Footage Festival.

WTTW Channel 11 - Wild Chicago - "Stephen Colbert Cameo" (1990)

Views: 7555

Here's a neat clip from an episode of Wild Chicago - one of their "Dumb Question" segments where they go somewhere and ask random people a question of questionable intelligence. This one took place in Lincoln Park near Diversey.

As I watched this episode and saw this segment I kept going back to this part - that guy in the sunglasses looks familiar...finally it hit me - it's Stephen Colbert!! (of The Daily Show and The Colbert Report fame) You can also see one o...
