Views: 1296

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...

Views: 4340

Here are two News Headlines segments (with slight variations) featuring Kathy McFarland on WFLD Channel 32. These previews for the news appeared at two different times during the airing of the 7 O'Clock movie that night. The top story was Mayor Jane Byrne conceding the Democratic primary to Harold Washington.

By 1983 WFLD had dropped the "Newscene" moniker, and went with the generic "News Headlines". It also stopped being listed as a separate program airing at 9:55pm. Stran...

WGN Channel 9 - WGN Presents - "Mutiny On The Bounty" (Ending & Break, 1977)

Views: 5237

Here's something pretty rare - the ending of a WGN Presents airing of "Mutiny on the Bounty" from 1977! You'll notice the graphics used here are the scrolling movie marquee version which we also saw in this example from 1980. I thought they were using an earlier version of the opening in 1977. Actually, I have an example from 1979 that uses the older version's "spotlight" motif with movie stars faces inside them. I gu...
