Gigglesnort Hotel - "B.J. Helps Blob Prepare for a Date" (1975?)

Views: 14880

Here is a fun segment with B.J. and Blob from one of the best and most remembered Chicago children's shows (although it was eventually syndicated to other markets) - Gigglesnort Hotel.

Even though it was seen for many years after it was produced, the show was only in production for 3 years - 1975, 1976, and 1977. In Chicago, it aired on Sunday mornings on WLS Channel 7. Also, did you know that Bill Jackson provided the voice for Blob, as well as all of the other characters on...

Voiceover by the original Svengoolie - Jerry G. Bishop.

"It's 10 and 30 - the time is here - Come now kiddies and have no fear -"

Too bad the recording ended there. If only we got about 30 seconds more. :-(

This aired on local Chicago TV on Fri...

KCOP Channel 13 - Romper Room (Excerpts and Commercial Break, 1977)

Views: 3389

Here's a neat and rare clip of the local Los Angeles Romper Room show from 1977! (this was yet another "easter egg" found at the end of a Betamax tape whose contents had been partially recorded over - boy, do we love these!)

The host was Miss Soco (Socorro Swan - now Socorro Serrano) who incidentally was the only Latina teacher the show ever had in all of its incarnations. She presided over the LA-area Romper Room from 1975 to 1989, having taken over from Miss Mary A...

Views: 2098

Here's Part 1 of a fairly early episode of The Oprah Winfrey Show - back when they were still producing it in the WLS-TV studios, and when they were still using the old AM Chicago music as the theme. On this day they had a Christmas Talent Show featuring staff members from WLS Channel 7. This part includes:

WLS-TV anchorman Joel Daly shows off his yodeling ability (!) and then Kevin McGurk, WLS Account Executive in the Sales department does some impressions, singing and perfo...
