    I was thinking the guy that did the trial results on Dragnet was Hal Gibney.

    Not to mention Let's Make a Deal and Jimmy Durante Presents the Lennon Sisters Hour and The Joker's Wild, among others. Charlie Tuna, who did Scrabble and The Mike Douglas Show too.

    Who's your favorite announcer on game shows or soaps?

    I'll add George Fenneman, the voice of Dragnet for many years. Nobody could say "On (date), trial was held in Department (number), Superior Court of the State of California. In a moment, the results of that trial." like him. He also did the opening, "The story you are about to see is true. The...

    Favorite production company logo?

    Another of my favorite closing credit announcements was Cynthia Darlow saying "100% of Square One TV is a production of the Children's Television Workshop." Her announcement was followed by a kid chorus shouting "SQUARE ONE!" And of course, any Sesame Street cast member saying "Sesame Street is...

    Favorite production company logo?

    Larry Van Nuys or Art James would do this on the 1990 version of TTD too- "This is Larry Van Nuys/Art James. Tic Tac Dough is a Jack Barry & Dan Enright Production, (and is) distributed by ITC."

    Followed by the Buena Vista logo, which used ping music.

    Lowest percentage to see a NFL game?

    You'd have to go way back, when blackouts were part of the rules. I remember a game i watched on the big dish in 1990, San Diego vs. Dallas, week 1 1990. The main DH national game was Houston Oilers-Atlanta Falcons (Jerry Glanville had become coach of Falcons, coaching against his former team...

    Favorite production company logo?

    Something i notice that on Y&R, the CPT theme doesn't overlap with "Nadia's Theme" unlike on The Real Ghostbusters, the first note of the CPT jingle would overlap with the final note of the shows' ending theme. The Transworld International/Four Point/Samuel Goldwyn logos. on the other hand, on...

    Who's your favorite announcer on game shows or soaps?

    Bern Bennett, the voice of Y&R...."Join us again......For The Young and The Restless...." (Almost always followed by the Columbia Tristar logo, with the "A UNIT OF THE Coca-Cola COMPANY") byline added too.

    I dont know if the Samuel Goldwyn one or the Mark IV one was better.

    Although this one is my favorite for sure.

    "In Stereo Where Available" on DVD

    I had a Zenith TV with stereo sound. It made my viewing of shows like China Beach, American Gladiators and other shows better than it had been in mono. (Got it right before AG's second season and CB's last season, 1990.)

    "In Stereo Where Available" on DVD

    I'm not 100 percent sure, but AG was the first syndie show to have "In Stereo Where Available" during the opening? I can only think of one other syndie show having that which was “On Scene: Emergency Response” but i can't remember when "On Scene" had it.

    "In Stereo Where Available" on DVD

    Another show that has the "In Stereo" bumpers intact is American Gladiators, from when they added Larry Csonka to the hosting lineup along with Mike Adamle. (Season 2.)

    My late grandmother watched The Doctors and Another World too. However, i remember me and her were one day watching Guiding Light, and the following happened: Alan suspects that "Adam Malik" is Thorpe and in a quest to expose Malik, Alan sets in motion a wide array of plots aimed at Blake to...

    Soap operas

    I remember my late grandmom watching Barbara Rodell as Lee Randloph on AW, dying in a car crash in 1969, in Living Color, complete with the second animated version of the NBC peacock logo from 1962–75 with the late Mel Brandt announcing that "the following program is brought to you in 'living...

    I saw a B&W kine of AW recently with Anne Wedgeworth playing Lahoma. It also shows Bill and Missy, played by Joe Gallison and Carol Roux dancing after they were married. So i'm not so sure that Proctor and Gamble wiped their tapes, but it was a kine, so....

    Soap operas

    ABC was not very consistent with their archiving. Dark Shadows was not wiped, but One Life to Live was? Same thing with NBC, The Doctors and Days of Our Lives survives, but not Another World?

    Soap operas

    I find it odd that One Life to Live from the early years is gone, but that Roone Aldrege had the foresight to keep all MNF games. Of course, OLTL exists from when the show got really good, but i'd want to see when Megan Riley died in a car accident, or Merdith Lord died in a hostage situation.

    They couldn't move the cartoon show to 4:00 anyway? That's what WYFF in Greeneville did for years until Santa Barbra became successful.

    I remember watching DS on some cable channel in the 90s, and the picture quality was pretty good for a show in the 60s.

    Kind of like the Browns Lions game in 2009. That game aired only in Ohio.

    Lowest percentage to see a NFL game?

    I have a web capture from the Herald Journal from 1992, and WSPA in Spartanburg aired the Falcons-Bucs game. It only went to 4% of the country, WSPA and all CBS stations in Georgia. WBTV in Charlotte aired the 49ers-Vikings game, which went to all other CBS stations.

    Favorite production company logo?

    I cant remember how many times i heard Jay Stewart say(at least on USA Network reruns, or on some of the eps of SOTC i've got off Youtube) "All prices are manufacturers' suggested retail value, and are correct at the time of recording. This is Jay Stewart speaking."

    Soap operas

    I've seen Dark Shadows, and those eps looked really good. Is there a reason why that was saved, and not Another World, or Jeopardy?
