WSNS Channel 44 - The Money Movie - "China Gate" (Break #5, 1979)

Views: 1179

Here's some rare footage from another long-lost local movie show - "The Money Movie" on WSNS TV-44! The movie presented on this day was "China Gate". TMM was similar in concept to Dialing for Dollars. Viewers (mostly lonely housewives and old people from what it sounds like) would send in post cards with their name and phone number, and the host would call them live on the air during the movie breaks to see if they could answer some trivia questions. They answered an easy preliminary questio...

Way to Go! Special (Part 5, 1980)

Views: 408

Here is Part 5 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 am pretty sure thi...

WKBS Channel 48 - Snipets - "The Body Machine" (1983)

Views: 878

From another airing of a Flintstones rerun on the late, lamented WKBS Channel 48 in Philadelphia, PA, here is a segment of Snipets which we've entitled "The Body Machine."

With the beginning "worms" opening leading the way (and 1977 copyright date), we start off with a shot of a pre-teen boy running in slow motion as the narrator shows how the human body is like a machine, and as such has to be checked every now and then. Most of this segment takes place during a...

WSNS Channel 44 - Star Spangled Movie - "You're Telling Me!" (Bumper #5, 197?)

Views: 855

Here is something extremely rare - some bumpers and on-screen station ID's during the "Star Spangled Movie" presentation of the W.C. Fields film "You're Telling Me!" on WSNS Channel 44.

It's too bad this person didn't go to the kitchen to make a sandwich - it would have been nice to have a complete bumper or commercial break.

Notice this bumper is different! The ol' 44 Film Cans with the title of the film and W.C. Fields name - look at the font.
