Here's Part 4, the last part, of the Field Communications produced mini-documentary, "Into The Valley of The Space Invaders" hosted by Bob Wilkins. This fun special takes a look behind the video game phenomenon and interviews some of the Silicon Valley artists, programmers, and engineers involved in making them.

Obviously this airing is from the San Francisco Field outlet, KBHK Channel 44, but here in the Chicago area this program aired at least twice on WFLD Channel 32 - on <...

Views: 634

Here is the eighth and final part of the Field Communications produced Way to Go! Special - an hour long (compilation?) showcase of some special kids and what they do. Has a lot of nice little slices of late seventies life as a kid. :-) The tape was dated May of 1980. My contact says that only a few of these "Specials" were made. Like I said, I'm not sure if these were compilations of segments shown on the regular Way to Go program, or if they were specifically produced for these specials. I ...

Views: 3290

Here's a short version of the goofy holiday greeting/promo featuring The Incredible Hulk running around Chicago holding a giant WGN ball (ornament?). I guess this was supposed to promo the fact that WGN was getting re-runs of the Incredible Hulk show soon. Here he is seen loitering around Wrigley Field in the winter, with his... ball.

Playing the part of the Incredible Hulk is Bob Foal.
