WCAU-TV 10 Philadelphia - The Late Late Show - 1987

I don't understand why the woman in the AIDS PSA looks worse as the video progresses. She's supposed to have AIDS, yet it looks like she's a drug addict.

Awesome! That AIDS commerical used to scare the crap out of me, they always showed this commercial late at night. I was about 16 and still scared of certain commericals LOL! Thanks for the memories!

This is not a psa for AIDS it look like a psa for cystal-meth abuse. If it is a psa for AIDS why they have her in the end of the ad look like a "junkie" than a AIDS victim. Keep it on the real about this. It is a serious problem shame on them.

Does anyone have a WCAU Late Show Intros from the 1970s when Barry White's "Love's Theme" was the theme song? Gene Crane was the announcer of the Late Show at that time as well.

The AIDS PSA actually caused me to LOL. Wow. Looks like Avon make-up.

Was that during when WJAR signed off the air that night?

[MSTS1]

Might have been, or could have been on higher unused cable channels. It's very difficult to remember any of these type of details since these recordings were made over 20 years ago.

I wonder . . . was WPHL's Sid Doherty the V/O on that Profiles International ad?

[videonut33]

yep.

[UglyAmerican0374]

Holy crap! I didn't know AIDS made your hair wet! It also turns you into Ace Frehley from KISS.

Nice, the Coaches Corner Music from Hockey Night in Canada!

@tvlondon The title escapes me, but from what it sounds like, I know for a fact that the cue (seen in the Spectrum Carpets spot) originates from Network Music.
