Speculative Fun-Classic TV 8 channel

Various WJW Logos over the years..Top:1962

Middle:1966 Bottom 1965.


Thought i'd go into something completely different..Since WJW-TV 8 has only one Digital channel currently, I thought it would be fun to "suggest" a second digital channel-A Classic TV 8 Channel, that would be used for some live simulcasts and relays of Fox 8 News, as well as "Classic" shows from the WJW-TV archives, even something different than the normal...Actual movies and syndicated/CBS originals from the bygone days of channel 8..Show the Big Chuck/Lil John DVD's as specials, etc..

Note:All speculative, I fully realize you have rights issues that may keep anything close to this from happening, but this is all purely for fun..
