After this was shown...on Thanksgiving Day..from(1961 to 1970)Ch.11 would air "The Thanksgiving Day Jamboree"kids tv specials hosted by Ms.Carol Corbett,"Officer"/"Police Chief Joe"Bolton and"Capt.Jack"McCarthy.
@redsuxh8r hell yeah. Yule log... parades... those Christmas messages from the management of channel 9. Even the leadup to the holiday season w/ Kong and Godzilla on the Thanksgiving week. Best ever.
I dont know anything about the opening credits of the movie. I was mainly posting the opening of the movie with the "holiday special" music from channel 11 in nyc as it was aired on Christmas day in 1985.
i didn't notice until now that the opening here was different. rare indeed. the dvd release has the opening that has been shown on wpix for the last few years. i checked them yesterday. great post.
I remember that film. WPIX-TV is still showing it every year. This intro was a syndicated print in black & white. MGM uses the real opening titles, except they used the Jackie logo with NRA tag. WPIX still uses the same intro along with the current MGM Leo logo shown plastering over the Jackie logo.

@retroguy1976 I can....WPIX respects its history, unlike the two former indy stations owned by FOX.
