WFLD Channel 32 - Promotional Sales Film (Part 2, 1970)

[GrawGraphics]

I loved this show and even held a carnival for Muscular Dystrophy back then. I don't remember the year but BJ and the gang were encouraging viewers to hold these "Carnivals for Muscular Dystrophy". He would read the names of those who held them along with the amounts raised during the show. What a amazing treat it was to hear BJ mention my name during the show. I only wish I could find some more clips of Cartoon Town, they seem pretty scarce.

This is maybe quite literally the most strangest thing I have ever seen.

When I was a kid, I thought they put cigarettes in Dirty Dragon's nose to it to smoke like that..lol

This is an ODD way to get sponsors. I lived in the southwest corner of Michigan and we received Channel 32. Interesting he mentions South Bend (IN) being in the viewing area.

@tmattrope B/C when WFLD got the FOX Broadcasting rights, they showed the channel here in South Bend as the local FOX station, which was the way it was until WSJV Channel 28 (Which was the local ABC station here for so many years) switched to FOX in the mid 1990s (Forget the exact year).

@LMCMInterloper Hmm that was way after I had moved away (in 1982). Channel 28 was still ABC when I lived in South Bend.
