Robin Garrison does a report on gum disease.

SND was a local program that aired on KYW TV after Saturday Night Live. Hosted by Stella, "that maneater from Manayunk." This episode contains the original opening sequence. Tonight's feature is It! (1966) starring Roddy McDowall.

This 30 second spot was one of many featuring a catchy tune by Patti Labelle promoting the city of Philadelphia during the mid 1980s. This spot aired in 1985. Note the dated "brick" phone carried by the power businesswoman. It's actually smaller than I would have expected for 1985. I'll bet that phone cost $2000 in 1985 dollars!

Popular adult contemporary station in Philadelphia. This was a generic spot used in many markets, customized via the voiceover, music, and graphics.

This was a children's special on WCAU TV in the fall of 1976. I'm pretty sure I had an outfit just like this in 1976. It is fair to say that local stations produce far less programming like this today. From the original 2" air tape, which I found at a flea market in the early 1990s.

Maury Povich hosted this hour long show on KYW TV from 1981 to 1983. Please excuse the poor quality and audio dropouts. Ever see a "cartoon balloon" wipe pattern before?

This news brief looks very dated because of the anchor's gigantic lav mic and the clunky typewriters in the background.

Tom Jarriel anchors this ABC News Brief on Nov 22, 1981. Also included is a promo for "That's Incredible!"

Clip from the 11PM newscast on July 13, 1985. Notice the "comet tails" from the tube cameras on Chopper 6? You don't see that anymore on TV.

From the Bryant and Jane years, except Bryant is off this particular day.

The heads of subLogic, Broderbund, Epyx, and Accolade weigh in on the Atari XE.

Report that ran on the 11 o'clock news in 1986. One of the cameramen on this newscast was interviewed because he was Ernie Kovac's cameraman in the 1950s.

Another 1980s phone chat spot, featuring "upscale" people with gigantic bag phones. What is the deal with the 16 digit phone number?

Lots of great 80s outfits in this clip that aired on WCAU in 1988.
