Screaming Yellow Theater (Svengoolie) - "Generic Film Intro #32" (1971)

Views: 1906

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.

As it states this is a "generic" film intro (#32), with Sven goofing around with some video effects. In the early days of the show, SYT consisted mainly of voiceover announcements for the movie, which was eventually expanded into full appearances by Svengoolie. Though it's from after that era, this clip gives you a...

Son of Svengoolie - "Dracula's Daughter, Mail Call #1" (1979)

Views: 1442

Here is the first mail call segment for Son of Sven episode number 2 featuring the film "Dracula's Daughter".

I don't think he ever did another show with more than one mail segment. He got so much mail from his first episode he had to have two.

In this segment Sven also suggests that viewers write in to suggest his name - an idea that didn't really take off.

This aired on local Chicago TV on Saturday, June 23rd 1979.

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

Views: 2617

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)
