WFSL-TV 47, Lansing, Michigan - 12/1/82 sign-on program PT 3

Seems to be an awful lot of movies and re-runs on there. I guess one can't really compare to some of the local ITV stations over here which produced their own programmes- which at least had the other stations on the network to suport them. (ITV worked as a number of regional franchises acting together as a network, each providing some network and some region-specific programming.) Here I suppose it's one station out there on its own, and has to show something affordable?

Welcome to the world, WFSL-TV Channel 47. ;)

I would like to see some of the clips of original programming from channel 6 in Lansing - shows like Mr. Mayor and Martha Dixon.

Elaborate?

I remember when they first started out as an independent station. For awhile all they had were movies and syndicated old TV shows.

I notice they used pieces of Mike Oldfield's Tubular

Bells on some of these promos.
