A sub.

What is the actual air date of this NBC News Overnight Broadcast?

[IceManNYR]

I believe 21st of June 1982 because one of the stories was the birth of Prince William.

Back then, anything that was on at night (including Letterman and before that, the early SNL) had the feel of a bunch of college students taking over the network after the stuffy adults went home. Very cool time in broadcasting. Now, it is either fake casualness or downright nastiness (esp. Fox News).

Best. Show. Ever.

Does anyone remember the show Weekend on NBC in the late seventies? It was a prime time news show on Saturday night on at about eight or nine and Linda was on there with Lloyd Dobbins. Wasn't he on the earlier shows of Overnight and then left?

Great program. Summer 1982, NBC owned my soon-to-be-15 self and the living room console TV after prime time: Tonight Show with Johnny Carson; Late Show with David Letterman in its first year; NBC News Overnight, also in its early days. Overnight was a perfect follow to Letterman -- both were smart shows, dancing masterfully between wry and flat out goofy, but Overnight added serious when necessary. Neither Letterman nor NBC News were ever better.
