Screaming Yellow Theater (Svengoolie) - "Show #5 - Sven Sings" (1971?)

Views: 2187

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 #1 (from "Show #5") - although on these master tapes sometimes they didn't save all of the breaks, so this could be Break #2 or Break #3 for all we know. This one features Sven singing a parody of "Button Up Your Overcoat" with backup vocals by Zelda,...

Views: 3299

Here's the ending of The Great Radio Comedians (end credits cut off early) followed by a neat vintage pledge break on WTTW Channel 11. Features Michael Hirsh, who was also the producer of the highly-regarded documentary special "Making M*A*S*H". In between asking for donations, Mike shows some blooper outtakes from M*A*S*H, including a couple with a few bad words, which necessitates the standard disclaimer:

**Warning: May be slightly inappropriate for some environme...

Views: 6818

Here's the ending moments of the Panorama - News at Noon on WTTG Channel 5 in Washington, DC. The main anchor was Pat Mitchell (now the president and CEO of the Paley Center for Media), and the "Total Communication News" (for the deaf or hard of hearing) was delivered in a combination of speaking and sign language by Jim (?)

No shouting a la Garrett Morris on the early "Weekend Update" segments of Saturday Night Live, alas. It is a nice companion to

Way to Go! Special (Part 8 - Final One, 1980)

Views: 634

Here is the eighth and final part of the Field Communications produced Way to Go! Special - an hour long (compilation?) showcase of some special kids and what they do. Has a lot of nice little slices of late seventies life as a kid. :-) The tape was dated May of 1980. My contact says that only a few of these "Specials" were made. Like I said, I'm not sure if these were compilations of segments shown on the regular Way to Go program, or if they were specifically produced for these specials. I ...
