I live in Newfoundland, Canada, and I grew up watching WUHF (born in '88). If you have anything else from this channel from the early 90s up to around 2001 or so I'd love to see it. The local ads for stuff like Zebb's Grill & Bar, Celino & Barnes, Irondequoit Dodge, Raymore and Flannigan, Jim the Hammer Shapiro etc. are kind of legendary with 80's kids here who grew up watching the evening sitcom block. Some of the ads for smaller businesses were really really low budget and funny.
god I remember this. I am only 19 but I remember this like it was yesterday. It makes me sad to see how much this channel has gone downhill the simpsons and seinfeld are about the only good shows left on fox 31
Yeah and it's been seen in Cobourg, which where I'm from, and Belleville which are along the northern shores of Lake Ontario. Ottawa and Gatineau both have affiliates that are linked to stations that are based in Detroit.
Actually, Fox News First began around 1997-1998, which was Fox Rochester's first-ever locally-produced newscast...Sherman Burdette was one of the original anchors.
In fact, Rochester's Fox31 has been seen across Canada on numerous cable providers and the Star Choice satellite provider for more than a decade.
