WFLD Channel 32 - Chicago Stuff (Part 2, 1985)

Views: 1535

Here's a lost Koz Klassic! - Chicago Stuff - was it a failed pilot? A consolation prize from Fox Television for cancelling Son of Svengoolie a month later? A half-remembered dream? It only aired once, at 10pm on a Sunday in December 1985 - so you couldn't be blamed for not knowing it existed. (I only heard rumors) In any case, it's a neat little package of Rich's schtick, so just think of it as an extremely early episode of The Koz Zone. :-)

Here's another "Rare Rayner" clip. ;-) A surviving excerpt from an episode of the Ray Rayner show on WGN Channel 9.

In yet another example of synchronicity, this clip just happens to be from the same exact date (just earlier in the day) as a previous clip we found that came from a completely different source. Remarkable in itself since 1979 material can be hard to find - period, much less from the same...
