WPIX 11 Outro for "The Honeymooners"-1987

[tubengagements]

Channel 11, 11pm every weeknight followed by reruns of the Odd Couple. Unless youtube pulls it I am uploading the Classic 39. Because I have an unlimited account (for length of video), I'm uploading them in some 2 hour blocks. If they soon disappear it's because they were snagged by youtube.

Honeymooners was the last thing I watched before bed every night as a kid, and this takes me right back to those days. Great post!!

[mctishee]

@redsuxh8r, that's a cool memory

[redsuxh8r]

as a kid i rmember right after the honeymooners I think startrek would come on at mid night and I would lookout my bedroom window to see the empire state building lights go out at the top floors. eh silly kid memories!

[mikeshoe74]

@redsuxh8r Wow, I remember that too now!! That the Empire State Building lights would go off at midnight. I think the Honeymooners were on at 11:30 for a long time on wpix, so as soon as the show would end the Epire State Building's lights would go out. Good memory!!

[daminmancejin]

i love this coming on late at night

[gothsoul82]

this was the same year that jackie gleason passed away i wonder if channel 11 did this as a tribute to him that year?

[mightykatze]

That is so cool... Takes me back to being a kid, staying up late at my grandparents' and watching the Honeymooners rerun... That damn "V" from Viacom always scared me a little!

[zyber9]

The V of moon?

[Hawkeye752]

My daughter always enjoyed the New Year's marthons WPIX played of these episodes.

[wdm1219]

Used to watch Yankee games on WPIX with my Dad til he passed on in 1978. Then Honeymooners would come on afterward. My dad was a little bit like Gleason too. 32 years later and I still pine for those good old days. Hearing this melancholy version definitely makes me feel moreso. It is to weep, but I thank you for posting this...

[25phillycheesesteak]

The Golden V of Doom is coming 2 get U!! HA HA!

Ugh!!

AAAAAAHHHHHHHH!!

[WtfPugs]

Wow, this used to put me to sleep, lol. Sucks that our kids will never experience things like this.

[Reinarei]

As a kid the honeymooners came on at like 3am and if I fell asleep with the TV on and woke up in the middle of the night, the face in the moon used to freak me out!

[tomorrowsboy7]

Shiksawithchutzpah, I myself now am downloading this while looking at a lit castle on a small Greek island,(Kythira).

Seems so incongruous.

I am always taken back to WPIX at 11:00 on my parent´s coach in our basement on LI when I hear this.......NEVER fails!

[Hamilton940]

I used to watch this on WPIX. I think it came on after the Twilight Zone. When I was a kid I would stay up late to see it, since it came on at like 11"00 or 11:30. Great tv.

[11111111jws]

Was this Channel 10? back then? Funny I watched it in Lowell, Mass if it was back then cooool!

[nelsonh86]

[yrv980]

I was born in 1980 and I do believe that Threes Company was on at 11pm then The Odd Couple at 11 30pm then the Honeymonners at 12am to 1am. After that it was Star Trek then Twilight Zone and if I remember correctly Alfred Hitcock was on was the last show on before the station went off air.

Wow cant believe I REMEMBER THE LINE UP!!!!! LOL

AHHHH THE MEMORIES!!!!

.

[Syriusb12]

Honeymooners used to always air at 11:30 during the 80's. I remember staying up as a kid to see it and I could barely make it to that late at night. I just caught an episode last night still on PIX chan 11..but now at 1am

[SpiritualBeing100]

I am a Brit who lived in NY in 1987. Every night I used to watch The Odd Couple, Honeymooners and then the original Star Trek. The guy who used to say "This is Channel 11 WPIX New York" had such a sexy voice. He also used to say "Channel 11, you'll never be over the Hill (Hill Street Blues). Aaah, happy days!! Also there was a commercial for NY Telephone with a young guy roller skating down the street -- it was sooo cool! NY I love you!

[1soniccool]

Viacom V of doom is in gold cool

[JonnyLawrence]

"VIACOM"

...ahhh the memories as a boy in 1980's NY

[RsldDecapod]

Oh to be back in the 70's and 80's again!!

Nothing like channel 5 WNEW, 9 WWOR

and last but not least 11 WPIX!! PIX,PIX,PIX!! Do you remember that video game they had on in the late afternoon!!?

[MaeloBello]

do I?! in Junior High ('82?), I sent in a postcard to WPIX to try to win a chance to play the game. alas, I was never called. I liked the basketball version. thems was the days!

[RsldDecapod]

YES... WHAT A TIME IT WAS TO BE A KID BACK THEN!! Can anyone remember the names of the WPIX Anchor team at 10 'oclock? Their was an older guy and a blonde. I believe they were married. My older sibs might remember.

[RaGeTheMaGnificent]

WOW! All you guys are awesome remembering the line up! I was born in '86 so coming up in the 90's I remember the line up being "WPIX NEWS AT 10" then Cheers at 11, then Murphy Brown at 11:30, then coach at 12, and then honeymooners at 12:30...then it alternated.

[peppertree5706]

What a great time to grow up in New York. And Channel 11 and Channel 5, two classic stations.

[tanquantwal]

I loved those channels growig up in New York! There was nothing better.

[notfarfromhome]

I remember the theme song, "Eleven, eleven alive!" Those were good times in New Jersey! Thanks for the upload!

[zg1000dru1]

Lots of fond memories here. But for me it was WPIX in the late 70s and early 80s when it was Odd Couple for 7-8 then again from 11-1200 followed by the Honeymooners, the original Star Trek and then the Twilight Zone usually on after a Yankees game...oh the great family memories of all of us laughing ourselves silly to jokes that we all knew by heart.

[dawnrexgurl]

wow im young again wpix

[AthelstonJr]

I saw WPIX 11 on satellite tv lately and it is nowhere as good as what we recieve during the 80's to early 90's.

[youtuverz]

This music is so relaxing. I loved hearing this when i was laying in bed watching this late nights.

[waingro1018]

wow, that brings back memories. The early 90's channel 11 had a late-night lineup of Cheers, The Honeymooners, the Odd Couple, Twilight Zone and the original Star Trek. I spent many a late night watching.

[1oreooreo]

Don't forget the 3 stooges

[RobTFirefly]

Wow, this takes me back!  Thanks for posting it.

[ShiksaWithChutzpah1]

You're most welcome. :)

[MrITALIANGUY72]

HOW ABOUT POSTING THE WHOLE SHOW?

[MrMorningside125]

brings back memories of me and my dad watching this in the mid 80's. thanx for posting this

[adelgado75]

I grew up watching WPIX and I miss it. I am glad that they at least bought back the classic call letters. I would like to thank whoever it was that had that great idea. I think if they started to air some of the shows they had in the 70's they would gain a new audience of youngsters.

[tyrannasaurasalan]

WPIX 11 meaning new york?

[tohotxox]

this show is classic!

[VALENTINEproductions]

What happened to channel 11. First it wpix, then wb11 then cw11 now its PIX, lol. I miss the good old wpix channel 11.

And honeymooners is the best show still on tv and i love 11 for being the only ones who show it.

[greathillsgolfer]

That was from the 1985 Honeymooners Special hosted by Bobby Rivers on WPIX.

I have the entire show on VHS and will try to post it here.

[travis7310]

I like the yellow V of Doom.

[Talic3]

According to Closing Logos Wiki, the Yellow V of Doom at the end is a "Chroma Key Mistake".

[daminmancejin]

I still love the tune at 0:26 its so lovely!

[travis7310]

Yes, but quite different than the one we hear today.

[daminmancejin]

yea i know i love both music.

[prausch65]

"Filmed on the DuMont Electronicam TV film system".

[minkajajany]

hey channel u need to bring the honeymooners back 1130 pm what was wrong with it since there are so many fans

[ctracy1]

Wow..I love this version of the theme. Haunting. Thanks for posting!

[della888]

Does anyone know where I can get this on mp3 or otherwise? I've been looking for *years* and it's driving me nuts!

[mcy919]

A yellow "V of Doom"....that's REALLY strange!

[ClassicTVFan82]

A chroma-key machine error.

[mcy919]

I know, but it still looks weird!

[Zorsha]

sweet..i remember this!

[ShaDeed329]

Was that Casey Kasem's voice I've heard, or no?

[ShiksaWithChutzpah1]

Not Casey Kasem but I could hear a slight resemblence. That is in fact Doug Paul doing the voiceover. He had been "the voice" of WPIX for many years.

[dgendvil]

Was Jack Philbin Regis's dad?

[ShiksaWithChutzpah1]

Seriously, my mom asked me that very question and told me that Regis's dad was a producer so it's possible.

[MIKESOWELL]

THE YEAR WE LOST THE GREAT ONE :''(
