That year the miniseries Fresno would premiere on CBS giving the town notoriety

Wow. I never thought Ralph Wood would be on 47. I remembered him being on 26 KMPH. 🙂

[@tvvortex9622]

probably a small enough market back then that people worked around

The dad in the sweet secrets commercial looks like a cross between Bob Sget,Bob from Sesame Street, and David Garrison.

I like how tv stations used Top 40 songs for their promos I think CBS 47 used Torture by The Jacksons am I right?

[@jwgreek8606]

Say is that Rod Roddy of The Price is Right voicing the McMahan's spot?

Love the "Theater 47" animation. Do you know when it was first introduced?

[@tvvortex9622]

I'm sorry, I do not.

Summer Bartholomew, 1975 Miss USA, was in the Gottschalks commercial.

[@jwgreek8606]

Been trying to find commercials with her in it!

The actor in the CIT split looks awfully familiar. I cannot place the face. But his wife must be Suzanne Pleshette.

[@jwgreek8606]

Must be George Coe in the vest,shirt, and tie
