Here is a Prayer For Today and station sign-off from WKBS Channel 48 in Philadelphia, in February 1983. Notable due to WKBS being a sister station of WFLD; they were both owned by Field Communications.

Prayer For Today given by Reverend John McFadden of the Archdiocese the Philidelphia and is Copyright 1981.

National Anthem played by the Stanford University Band and arranged by Dr. Arthur P. Barnes. Photography by the Sierra Club. (Copyright 1972 or 1973?)

WFLD Channel 32 - Chicago Stuff (Part 3, 1985)

Views: 2106

Here's a lost Koz Klassic! - Chicago Stuff - was it a failed pilot? A consolation prize from Fox Television for cancelling Son of Svengoolie a month later? A half-remembered dream? It only aired once, at 10pm on a Sunday in December 1985 - so you couldn't be blamed for not knowing it existed. (I only heard rumors) In any case, it's a neat little package of Rich's schtick, so just think of it as an extremely early episode of The Koz Zone. :-)

Way to Go! Special (Part 5, 1980)

Views: 534

Here is Part 5 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 am pretty sure thi...

This Break #2 from an unknown episode number features an impersonator of famous comedian Phyllis Diller.

I'm thinking that "SYT #1" as the clapboard person says, refers to the fact that it's Movie #1. (2 movies a night were shown for most of the run of SYT)

According to the TV listings, ...
