This theme is one of the songs in the soundtrack of my life. I remember finishing my homework and then watching the 4:30 movie (lived in NJ) before my mom would say "Turn off the television set , wash your hands and come to the dining room for dinner". And I actually had to get up to turn off the TV!! Great stuff!!

It's called "Moving Pictures" by Joe Raposo. In case anybody's interested. Written specifically for Channel 7's 4:30 movie in New York. Later used for other shows and channels owned by ABC.

Great memories, the 70s were the best of times for kids!

@StukInBuf There is the Detroit Area bumper bouncing aroud there, but I cannot find it. Since WABC New York had the same theme for their Afternoon Movie, it will have to suffice for now. Black Friday was A LOT DIFFERANT when I was growing up. The stores opened AT THEIR NORMAL TIMES back then (Yes they were still crowded, but they didn't have the "Doorbusters" they have today. One other thing, the stores were CLOSED ON SUNDAYS.

@ussregulus But still give us, please, the 4:30(or 4:00) Movie bumpers; we don't need commercials... Thanx.

This week I'm going to recreate LASSIE WEEK, which they always ran on thanksgiving week in the 1970s. I'll watch LASSIE COME HOME tonight, SON OF LASSIE Tomorrow, COURAGE OF LASSIE on Wednesday and on Friday I'll watch THE MAN CALLED FLINTSTONE (Which ran on Rita Bell's Prize Movie the day after Thanksgiving) and HEY THERE, IT'S YOGI BEAR, which ran on the 4:00 Movie that afternoon.
One benefit from recreating Thanksgiving Week, NO COMMERCIALS!!!
