WFLD Channel 32 - Super Cartoon Sunrise (Opening, 1984)

Views: 1692

Here is the opening for Super Cartoon Sunrise on WFLD Channel 32. This is from a later incarnation of the show, but features the same graphics and music. (Except the 32 WFLD logo which is different from the earlier version)

Lineup included:

Produced by Field Communications Corporation. (I still say that ending voiceover sounds like George Takei of ...

Here (from left), Steve, Nancy Boyle, and Bob Hoffmann are seen over a drawing of triplets in a crib, as they lip-synch (and clown around) to Danny Kaye's 1947 recording of the Arthur Schwartz / Howard Dietz composition "Triplets" (which had been performed most famously by Fred Astaire, Nanette Fabray and Jack Buchanan in the 1953 film "The Band Wagon"). The tape cuts out midway through this number.
