  • And even today, The Jeffersons are still on WDCA!

  • @lifedoctrinemusic Hah! I remember those puppets...."Gimmie, Gimmie, Gimmie is that all you know? You got to know the right way to ask some somebody [something]" Yeah those puppets were funny and they sounded like WWF wrestler Macho Man Randy Savage. Those were the days. I'm still looking for the WB50 afternoon movie promo that had a panarama of movies and has Bananarama's "cruel summer" as background music.

  • Channel 20 was the Sh*t back in the 70's and 80's

  • Ha! Good ol' channel 20. Do you have any of the shorts with the puppets teaching kids to be polite (i.e. the one where the other puppet was picking his nose, then pulled his nose off, still attached to his finger) ?

  • It's interesting to see what channel 20 was like back in the 80s, since I lived here in DC but it was only from 1993.

  • I remember when WUSA was WDVM after it was WTOP!  Back when horse farms populated Burke, VA.

  • The legendary Patay Greene once hosted a half-hour-long monologue once a week during the 1970s on DCA. Anyone have a video clip from that show?

  • Another person here who grew up with WDCA-TV.

    I still have a tape of the day or so before it became UPN, it was never the same after that.

  • To add on... When I got home from school when I was younger in the mid 80's, I remember watching cartoons on Channel 20 and even remember their brief experiement with a nightly news broadcast, which was produced by News Channel 8 (Sister station of WJLA).

  • I remember WDCA back when I lived in the DC area. They would show cartoons and shows then UPN came in but now UPN was gone then My Network TV moved in
