That "In The News" segment was probably aired in April '84 either a week or two  after the Cherry Blossom festival in D.C.

the bumpers and promos are from June 1984.

Oh, the days of turning on the TV and seeing the color test pattern, then watching 6 solid hours of cartoons. It was the best part of being a kid in the 1980s.

How could anyone not love the 80's? It was such a great time to be a kid. I remember those In The News commercials like it was yesterday. I used to love Saturday mornings and Charlie Brown and Snoopy. Kids these days just don't know what they missed out on.

June 1984 - I was graduating High School that month! Good Lord....these graphics are so stone-age, but they were cutting-edge at the time. Christopher Glenn was the dude that did "In The News" even back when I was a young kid in the 70s.

@kgoundan I might be wrong but I think back when Craig Kilborn hosted The Late Late show they brought it back but in a comical format and made fun of it as well. Specifically they were poking fun at the weeks/days news highlights.

Have a great night, a great day tommorrow, a great night tommorrow, a great week, a great month, a great autumn and a Happy Halloween! Puerto Rican Love from New York City!

@kgoundan I totally agree.

it would be interesting if In the News came back today and explained the BP oil spill. If only they didn't cancel it, I'm sure they would have explained Lewinsky, 9/11, and the financial/housing crises in a way so that kids would understand it too.

@tanquantwal That's what I am doing this Saturday morning. This week I'm going to buy Cookie Crisp cereal to complete the experience

I was born in '85 but I remember watching NBC and CBS Saturday Mornings in the late '80's and early '90's. Fox Kid's was good as well. Here in NYC in the early '90's, Channel 9 (now MyNetwork TV) aired kids shows on Sunday mornings and not Saturdays. But they were mostly old and syndicated ones.

Have a great night, a great day tommorrow, a great night tommorrow, a great week, a great month, a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! All the best in 2010 an beyond. Puerto Rican Love from NYC!
