We're back in New York this week, but I thought I'd change things up a bit, so I've included the listings for WTIC in Hartford and WATR in New Haven. Not a big change, but it does give us a little more variety. So see if you can find any of your favorites!
Very appropriate that Channel 2 is showing The Last Hurrah, starring Spencer Tracy, on election eve; one of the great political movies of all time, as I mentioned here.
When I see that 11:25 movie, all I can think of is Bobby Vinton singing, "She wore Blue Denim..." Am I wrong for feeling that way?
You won't want to miss today's Dinah Shore episode, in which Jack Palance prepares stuffed cabbage. Yep, you read that right.
I suspect any classic TV channel would be pleased with this lineup. Great lineup on To Tell the Truth.
Monday Night Football: Pittsburgh 21, Cincinnati 10. The Steelers were not the Super Bowl contenders that we think of today, but they're on the way. In 1969 their record was 1-13; this season they improve to 5-9. By 1972 they'll be in the playoffs.
Lady Bird Johnson's making the talk show rounds today - first the Today show, and this afternoon the David Frost show (and this evening, depending on which station you see it on). She's plugging her book A White House Diary, covering the time from JFK's assassination to Richard Nixon's inauguration.
Interesting to see George Carlin in The Movie Game - I never thought of him as a celebrity who'd be on a game show.
If memory serves me correctly, the original Beat the Clock didn't have a celebrity guest. This was the version of Beat the Clock that I knew, that I grew up with; I'd never seen the original one with Bud Collyer until a few years ago. After seeing it, the celebrity guest (so popular in the '60s and '70s) just doesn't seem to fit.
Bob Cromie's guest on Book Beat is James MacGregor Burns, the renowned historian and political scientist, author of the FDR study Roosevent: Soldier of Freedom.
Once again, WNYC will pre-empt its evening lineup for taped coverage of the United Nations, if it was in session today.
