I liked how the station apparently didn't have any archives from this show, and just used this YouTube clip on the news for its 50th anniversary tribute...

@RetroWinnipegTV That's funny; I hadn't heard about that. I'm glad my digitized copy of an over-the-air broadcast on a 20 year old VHS tape was good enough for CKY.

Robert Church Who worked at the Petland in polo Park use to come on this show and do a segment.. Now Rob has his own show nationwide!

Wow! I have not seen this show since about ... '93? I have had (a memory-mutated version of) that theme song in my head for the past 18 years!

Thank you for keeping the commercials too; they bring up those nostalgic feelings just as much as the show itself.

About Joey's carrer, according to wiki:

"In 1987, after years of inactivity, he returned to the charts with "Together (The New Wedding Song)" which to this day is a popular song at weddings".
