  • Loved seeing all 13 parts. Back around 1967 or so, when I was a Boy Scout, I gave Dick Lane an award from the Scouts on television during a broadcast from the old Ascot Raceway. Before we went on he told me, "See that red light up there in the stands? Look up there after you give me the plaque and you'll do alright lad." My thrill was being able to stay up late that night to see myself on TV with Mr. Lane. My "15 minutes of fame" lasted 20 seconds. Great memories.

  • Why would you overdub the original audio track? Seemed like it was going into a Simon & Garfunkel's 'Old Friends' which I think would of been very heart tugging... would be nice to see the original ending left int tract. Thanks for your sharing & efforts.

  • @wendileona The undubbed one got pulled by you tube for copyright violation. I redubbed so you could see the end.

  • @wksufreshair Really? Was it because of Simon/Garfunkel? Hmmm, I heard some Weather Report in this documentary. I suggest slowing or slightly speeding up the original video. Too bad. But thanks again for your efforts!

  • Also, as is posted here on YouTube, Stan Chambers was given the honor of throwing the switch at KTLA from analog to digital during the evening news on June 12, 2009 from the Mount Wilson transmitter site. His grandson Jaime Chambers, also a KTLA reporter, covered the event live with him. Stan is a beloved L.A. TV icon known for his humility, optimism, trustworthiness and longevity of good health.

  • Thanks for posting KTLA's 40th anniversary special from 1987. Although the station produced later such retrospectives for its 45th and 50th anniversaries, this is hands down the best one on LA television history it ever produced. Stan Chambers was spot-on in predicting L.A.'s subway system (now the Metro Red and Purple Lines), wall-sized TV sets, HDTV and the L.A. area growing to 15 million residents. He stayed with KTLA another 23 yrs, retiring in grand fashion in August 2010 on his 87th b-day.

  • The music used on the ending, You Tube would not allow me to use so I redubbed Brian Eno

  • Why was this overdubbed?
