WTOP-CBS Promos 1976

[LedWilde]

@kstarpictures That sounds about right. You forget about something and then see it again 20 years later and then it's,"Oh, yeah! I remember this!"

[videozfann]

retro gold!

[YooTubeSuxLikeHell]

Her last name is Bunyun hehe

[enmaxus]

[1soniccool]

WUSA 9 in the 70's as WTOP-TV and in the 80's and 90's as WDVM-TV

[kohstamojahn]

[TheChibbysan]

Wow, TAPED highlights!

[LedWilde]

That CBS special presentation thing I believe was still used in the 80's. Because I remember it.

[retroguy1976]

arbor day well wow lol

[Jupiter98111]

Good Times? They're living in the Chicago projects with "Ned the Wino" downstairs. Doesn't sound like "good times" to me!

[thimoneus]

That is a trippy dose of nostalgia there. 

[Keaster2000]

When you saw this "Special Presentation" Clip you knew something good was coming on...CARTOONS AT NIGHT!!! Kids these days don't know how good they've got it

[nauort23]

@Keaster2000 ... or how bad.

[Childrenofthecornsno]

All the shits in the arber?? lol

[loonmaniac]

You've Got Lupus, Charlie Brown! Brought to you by Dolly Madison snack cakes.

[sfjuoasherpowed]

[MrSammyReed]

Here's one I found where a lengthy "pre-recorded" disclaimer was used during the old NBC peacock!

watch?v=b3nzvYSmnfM

[Wehategod]

Dammit I just 10 bucks on that Game!!! great I beat Boston Dammit !!!

[russwinkler]

Maureen Bunyan, the announcer, is still on the air today on WJLA in DC!

[libertatus]

It's like I'm 12 years old again!

[Kelski1998]

Or a Bugs Bunny Cartoon later on in the 80's I remember Garfield being on there

[MiltownPunkette21]

That. Was. AWESOME.

[jeremyschultz1]

It's Administrative Assistants' Day, Charlie Brown

[mpc3po]

ABsolutely!!...the anticipation of some great exciting Charlie Brown or something!....gives me CHILLS

[LNQS]

When I see the CBS special bumper it could only mean one thing: "Charlie Brown special" is about to come on!

[shittyshit69]

muppets too

[beeb1421]

i can still remeber the anticipation when i hear that music.

Usually a charlie brown special was coming on.

back then it was once or twice a year, now we've got dvd.

[ratesforless]

Either that, the Muppets or Fat Albert. That was the only time we could talk Mom into staying up on a school night to watch it because everyone knew these cartoons only came on once a year. No DVDs, no Cartoon Network around to loop the same show every two days; you had a lot of explaining to do at school if you missed it the night before.

[rjam1974]

The graphic animation for the 70's intro were spectacular and as a graphic artist i can appreciate it now

[angryniggah]

maureen bunyan was the hottest black woman in dc for some time. ageless chick.

nice upload.

[chrismc410]

Isn't she on WJLA now?

[gatorman295]

Yep. She's been with WJLA since '95; she was reunited with her longtime colleague, Gordon Peterson, in 2004 when Peterson left WUSA for WJLA. They now co-anchor the 6 p.m. news there.

[raposofan]

Good heavens your CBS logo is crystal clear. This may be the best copy of it online.

[SailorCallie]

The clarity's astonishing from when it was taped in 1976. You must've did an excellent job perserving that 30+ year old copy. :D

[donjabroni]

She's on Channel 7 now right?

[reprobacious]

Quick, Charlie Brown-- plant a tree for Arbor Day to save the Earth...just don't forget that they emit CARBON DIOXIDE (GASP!) at night!

[Akira625]

Maureen Bunyan was on Channel 9 for the longest time, she shocked viewers when she abruptly left in 1995. The station had some talented people working for them back in the day, and she was one of them.

[rockjohnson80]

She was hot in 1976

[Akira625]

She still looks good, she's ageless. :)

[DerrickLee2006]

Pat Canal (sp.) doing the voice-over for the end of the Good Times promo.

Not sure who did the V/O for the CBS Special Presentation announcement.

[wmbrown6]

It might have been Wally King, another CBS staff announcer.

[chen73]

March 16, 1976

It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown

Good Times - "The Family Gun" (repeat from 9/16/75)

[videohollic2008]

THANK YOU for uploading this!!! I've been looking for the 1975 "Catch the Brightest Stars" promotion for YEARS!!

[AllRequired]

Catch the Brightest Stars, indeed.

[KNS1996DFS]

Whatever, the Celtics won the championship.

[Hoskins1942]

Local WJTV From Jackson With CBS Special One Broadcast Just Gonna From 32 Years..

[apm78229]

It's Arbor Day, Charlie Brown!? Aaaaarrrrrrgh!

[knicksfan89]

march 14 1976

[sammyreed]

Egads, I remember those voice announcements during the "Special" logo. If it was an award show, the guy went on about portions being pre-recorded and being tape-delayed in time zones and things like that. Every once in a while, they went on forever before the program could start, showing a blank screen until the disclaimer was finished!

[springloadedchicken]

wow when maurine was cute...  :D

[mcjean9]

I remember back then when "CBS Presentation Speical" part came on, there was no announcement after that.  They will then show Charlie Brown cartoon or other specials. Anyway, the presentaion have always been my favorite part before any other features. Thank you!

[WVECSpirit]

I think the Arbor Day special is often considered one of the WORST Charlie Brown specials.

[PJSkins26]

I don't think I've ever recall seeing that Charlie Brown special when I was a child. There are many Charile Brown Specials I haven't seen on TV in over 15 years.

[corrupt200]

i thought the cbs station in DC was WUSA. And whoa, hearing an announcement during the Special PResentaiton Bumper.

[wmbrown6]

It is today. The prior calls were WOIC (from 1949 to 1950 - originally a sister station of New York's WOR-TV), then WTOP, followed by WDVM, and now WUSA.

[huggyface]

I definitely remember the "CBS SPECIAL PRESENTATION" from when I was really little! And "Good Times" being on CBS! As well as "All in the Family", and "Alice"...among others.
