WAKR-TV Ad for tape delayed High School Football Games. It doesnt say here or in the listing, but I would assume Sports Director Bob Wylie was part of the telecast team.
WKBN Ad for "Teilight Zone" reruns
WKYC TV Guide Ad about being the "Full Color Station". The Don Adams Special mentioned in the ad appears below:
Taking a brief look at September 1965..Carl Stern and Bud Dancy were still the news team at Channel 3, with Wally Kinnan Weather and Jim Graner Sports..Labor Day, September 6, found WYTV-33 and WAKR-49 Carrying a Giants-Dodgers Baseball Game. The Indians had a home doubleheader with Washington so The Game was blacked out on Channel 5.
77 Sunset Strip reruns "Return" to TV 5 at 4PM weekdays on Sept. 6. followed by Captain Penny's Comedy Clubhouse for an hour and a half from 5-6:30.
Local Color programming on WJW-TV 8 included Franz The Toymaker Monday-Friday at 9AM, some 5 minute newscasts and editorials,Jim Doney's Adventure Road at 5:15 weekdays (moving to 5PM Sept. 13) and Hoolihan Weather at 11:15
Channel 5 aired "Comedy Clubhouse" in Color. Also Certain Cartoon Shows and Johnny Carson, (which would move to TV 3 in November 1965.)
TV 3 aired no local color to this point, though Many NBC shows were in color, and Channel 3 would introduce Local color September 13, 1965 according to the ad above..
It was around this time (mid 1960's) that the networks really began pushing the fall season. This may have been the first time NBC really began to use "NBC Week" as a yearly tag for introducing their fall premiere..September 12-19, 1965 was "NBC Week"..With 15 new shows. Most not lasting more than one season..
From MusiCom67 at You Tube: "A Secret Agent's Dilemma"...Aired on WKYC TV Mon. Sept. 6, 1965..7:30-8PM..Don Adams' Preview of the 1965-66 NBC Fall Season. Sort of playes like a "sneak peek" of Get Smart, which would premiere Saturday, Sept. 18, 1965

So this would mean that the black-and-white WKYC test pattern as on the 35th anniversary special was laid out prior to the station's going "full color" in September (remember, this was nearly three months after NBC was ordered back to Cleveland). I figured the color pattern was after this switch.
ReplyDeleteWKYC was not able to carry the Tonight show until March, 1966, or something like that. On coming back to Cleveland, NBC had to pick up where KYW left off.
ReplyDeleteCorrection: When NBC O&O channel 3 (WKYC-TV calls) returned to Cleveland in June 1965, they moved their RCA-TK 41 studio pedestal color cameras/RCA TK-26 color camera/film/slide chain islands, right away, broadcasting local color, right away. There was no deplay to Sept 1965! Just after the move back, they actually broadcast some local/former Westinghouse(KYW-TV)shows,in local color in place of their own NBC net shows for a while, (12 noon news, movies) due to contractual obligations with the sponsors. They even broadcast their own custom made NBC color peacock advisory (video/audio) at the beginning of each local color show during that summer of 1965!
