  • I agree! That set looks way ahead of its time. Great opening animation, too!

  • Very sad how a once proud & respected news division can fall so far from the top. All their AM program formats are or were disasters. Evening news is a shell of itself and even Face the Nation is getting whipped!

  • Who agrees that CBS needs to omit the first hour of The Early Show in favor of the current Morning News? I mean, what's the point of producing it and Up to the Minute if no one's up to see it? Plus The Early Show gets pummeled in the ratings anyway.

  • @mplsmn yes, the nightly news programs are sadly dying as the only viewers are aging out... self absorbed younger people have no time for them..

    Does anyone have the ending for the CBS Morning News from this time with Diane Sawyer?

  • I loved watching this in the 1980s ... first we had Captain Kangaroo then CBS Morning News... Bill Kurtis was good on this program... then he moved over to A&E and did all those crime stories.... Looks like Bill was bought and paid for by the elite .

  • How do I get this in my phone?

  • The second music cut (at 0:17 of the clip) could have just as easily been used for a network evening newscast.

  • @jerseyfla It was.

  • @tcbluecollarguy the morning show are now just shamless PR puffery... got to sell those books, movies...ect...

  • Unsure if I am correct or not. But I am thinking The CBS Early Morning News (6AM to 7AM) & The CBS Morning News (7AM to 9AM) both had the same music during the 1982-1984 year

  • kurtis has a great voice
