I've lived in 3 major cities since I left Philly in 1994, and no other city has a newcast team like WPVI. You really felt like they were part of your family, and there was this level of intimacy and bonding that they brought to the viewers that I haven't felt ever since!

I remember all these spots. I don't think there's another station in the country with such a loyal following. It's really amazing.

Nice promos without the 1970's action music they always use for their intros.

Oh man, I remember the Action News song.

Not that i'm asking too much here but does anyone have any Action News reels of Jim O'Brien untimely death? Very tragic though a worthy piece of Philly TV history.

[spazquestt]

I've been looking for that too...can't find any jim obrien stuff.

[tvnutboy]

Look no more...(spaced apart for messaging purposes, figure it out.)

Hey in the beginning it's Dan Lauria, the father from "The Wonder Years". This is definitely from 1983 or earlier.

[videonut33]

It is from 1983/84.

[beh196]

Wow, awesome footage of the late great Jim O'Brien.

[mightygringo85]

Sounds like Kermit the frog is singing this promo.

[WVECSpirit]

Not what I'd have expected for an Action News promo.
