The basketball kids part - for now-FOX affiliate WITI - provided shots of people and places in Milwaukee, and the anchor team of Mike Miller and Vince Gibbons
The lady contractor version - for now-ABC affiliate KMGH - provided shots of Denver, and the anchor team of Jim Redmond and Ann Wade
The grandma and granddaughter version - for KCBS - featured Steve Edwards of FOX's KTTV, and the famous Hollywood sign
The little girl in the second spot is Ashley Helma, who commented on my seperate (but now defunct) posting of that two years ago. She has very fond memories of acting in this, and said it was surpriing to her that they decided to use her real name on-screen. From the sounds of what she told me, she did not pursue anything further in showbiz, but nonetheless..lucky her for doing this! :)
Those were fun to see, hard to believe thats its gonna be 28 years old

As a kid, I hated most of these shows, but I knew the promos were pure gold.

What pre-teen kid wouldn't have gotten himself a serious head injury trying to jump into the TV after Victoria Principal in workout gear? I would LOL

I wonder how many children actually tried to jump into the TV and be a part of the TV shows.
BTW, the grandma in the 2nd promo: is that Sandra Gould (Mrs. Kravitz #2 on "Bewitched")?
