This whole broadcast is gold!
Chuck Henry now retired after 4 decades on television in Los Angeles
Chuck Henry! Love that guy. Had no idea he worked in Chicago
Yes Chuck Henry is more known for LA News on KABC and KNBC-TV
A young Linda Yu, damm
I thought it was Connie Chung for a minute
I did 2 but in any case she's gorgeous
Awww, I remember Chuck when he was the new guy in SoCal TV.
Jim Tilmon was actually an excellent airline pilot.
Every time there was an airline crash they threw on Jim Tilmon to discuss what happened. He was very good
It's not "Wards" it's Montgomery Ward..according to the training video we had to watch when I worked for Wards as a delivery driver.
Linda Yu still looks Great today at age 77!
When I lived in Northwest Indiana in the early 80s I used to always watch channel 5, good memories!😊
Roger Ebert with Bette Midler, love it!
Thanks so much for these. So many memories!
The Best of Carson rerun was from February 7, 1979. It must have been heavily edited because the Tonight Show went from 90 to 60 minutes the previous month.
It was. The segment with author Willard Espy (one of the scheduled guests) was cut out.
oh my! I used to have a crush on Chuck Henry when I was a wee girl. Lol 🥰 Too funny seeing him again!!
Not only was Greg Gumbel doing Channel 5 sports but he did NFL 80 for NBC!
Along with his brother Bryant at NBC SPORTS
@@alfonsogreen2722 Bryant was at this time actually the one who was on NBC's NFL/AFC studio shows (in this season, NFL '80); he would do that for one more season after, before moving to the role that really defined him, that of co-host on Today in the mornings alongside Jane Pauley.
@bmasters1981 yeah I started watching Bryant at Today when I was 3 or 4 years old
6:05- I wonder if he’s referring to the Atlanta child murders??
Chuck Henry from Eye on LA/ Eye on Hollywood on ABC late night.
4:09 Re Paul Tisdale: Micheal Veal was convicted of the robbery and murder and in August 1982 was sentenced to 40 years in prison.
Linda Yu was hot
It's interesting that all the artwork seems to have been projected onto a Vizmo screen and then shot by a studio camera. (The best example of this is at 10:45 but all the over-the-shoulder graphics have this backlit appearance.) Most stations would have simply put the graphics on an easel and shot them directly.
22:05 Re Bruce and Darlene Rouse: Their son William confessed to the murders in 1996 and was sentenced to 80 years in prison.
Also Chuck Henry host Now you see it.
Vince Evans was later a QB with the Raiders.
Even though it's been decades now, that taxi driver who was murdered just turns my stomach. There's no commiserating his death because the killers likely were black. Some things never change.
It was around this period that, in New York City, sister station WNBC Channel 4 revamped its newscasts under the "News 4 New York" banner (with theme by Jim McAlister) and their 5 P.M. newscast turned into "Live at Five."
P.S. "N4NY" actually debuted THAT VERY EVENING in 1980.
"Neuter Dame", and they all laugh off camera! LOL! Harper was good, but Matt Suhey was the answer for THE GREAT Walter Payton!
I've seen The Rose a couple of times on a movie channel and it was a great movie, IMO. By the end of 1981, Neill Armstrong would receive the pink slip by the Bears after 4 years.
What are the names of the two newscasters at the beginning?
I was 4
greg gumbel
Nuder dame. LMAO CTFU
Wow - I REMEMBER THE REAL NEWS .
Back when politics weren’t leveraged by the media ,reporters etc .
Democrat News
Republican News
Those DVE pushes were really new tech in 1980 I believe
The weatherman looked just like Chuck Berry. Thanks for the upload. It’s cool to see what was important in 1980.
