SelecTV - "Short Subject, Previews & IDs" (1981?)

Here is some footage from Milwaukee's version of ON TV and Spectrum - SelecTV. It aired over WCGV Channel 24. Includes:

Short Subject opening (I edited the short out because it ran 20 minutes)

"Next" SelecTV bumper followed by preview for "Stone Cold Dead"

"Coming Soon" SelecTV bumper followed by preview for "Bruce Lee Film Festival"

SelecTV station ID for WCGV-TV Channel 24 Milwaukee

Brief Intermission - Please Stand By (?)

SelecTV animated ID

"Feature Presentation" SelecTV bumper and opening of "Stone Cold Dead"

Not sure when this aired, but based on the films I'd say 1981 is a good guess.

Wow. I've never seen Paul Williams in anything other than Smokey & The Bandit. I've also never seen Belinda J. Montgomery in anything other than Miami Vice.

Also, during the Please Stand By portion where the signal is scrambled, the movie Motel Hell is mentioned. Great horror flick. Anyone seen it?

We need some more Bruce Lee Film Festivals in this world as well.

I remember watching "Stone Cold Dead" on WGBO Channel 66 in the late 80s. I recently recorded this off of Comcast's Impact Action On-Demand which is under the Free Movies section.

@Pete: I have seen "Motel Hell".

The spotlight gives me the subtle impression they're covering something up... scuff marks, dings, wine stains...

While I don't think it's exactly the same, the typeface of the Playback logo looks an awful lot like Playboy magazine, doesn't it?

I looked this show up in Jack Mulqueen's book and was surprised to see the show aired from 1958-1961 and 1966-1969 and was also on WGN at some point.

I also thought Val Bettin's voice sounded familiar and it turns out he did voices in several Disney productions, such as The Great Mouse Detective and was also a voice in Shrek!

A few years back, I inherited a few late '70s-era TDK audio cassettes. Beige shell. Couple of 30s, maybe a 60, maybe a 90.


Comment posted in KBHK Channel 44 - Son Of Svengoolie - "Son Of Frankenstein" (Opening, 1983) by Detroit4Chicago on Tuesday, May 21st, 2013 at 12:34pm CT

WKBD had Son of Svengoolie as part of its double-featured Chiller Movie, which aired at 11PM (10CT.) Sven aired first, weaved-in with the feature being shown, then the second feature without. Also, this block had two intros: the main one which can be seen at www.youtube.com/watch?v=0m_mwYwXB4Q, followed by the "big broadcast" as seen above.

For local flavor, there were voice overs of Sven doing "return-to-feature" announcements for his segment of the Chiller Movie. On one Saturday night, I remember him making reference to the legendary Bill Kennedy, who at the time was WKBD's midday afternoon movie host as a quick gag.

WKBD stopped airing SoS after Field sold the station to Cox in 1984.

Hopefully not Ricky the Magic Pixie Visits Daisy Bumble!

Judging by the title cards and the listings on the forum, the time slot must have been from 5:45 to 6:00 PM on a Tuesday or Thursday.

Nice open shirt without bra...too bad that look never caught on.

I think the cue card holder was a topless dancer.

The opening music in the beginning when they were going from the commercial mode to the scrambled mode was Bob Jame's Touchdown.. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nS_k4E1vN_E
