    At 2:15 into this clip, the announcer says, "Be sure to tune in... ... as we bring you the exciting story" and the sound drops out. I wonder if it is because by this time Spiderman was airing every weekday, and the prints were for a weekly run?

    Did Dr. Don always over emphasize the "O " in O'Clock?

    @Szake...that's very possible. That may have also been (for all we know) another voiceover that was packaged into the films. I tend to remember when WFLD aired "Gilligan's Island" how they'd cut off the "Be sure to join us each week my friends you'll sure to get a smile...from 7 different castaways here on Gilligan's Isle" lines from those shows endings. The voiceover artist sounds a lot like Richard Deacon who played Mel Cooley on "The Dick Van Dyke Show" and Fred Rutherford on "Leave it to Beaver". Can anyone confirm that?

    GalagaFleetCommander: The runs of "Bewitched" on WPWR had the last few seconds of audio cut off from the opening credits like that as well.
