  • My memories of CKVR.

    Noon: Leave It to Beaver

    1230: CKVR News. Until I had to go back to school (lunch was over)

    400: Different shows that CKVR billed as Classic Television.

    Which I had forgotten about until I saw this clip and they said Classic Movies. CKVR was great television.

    BTW, at 00:10 into the clip is that Kevin Frankish of Citytv's Breakfast Television??

  • Definitely classic television! Typewriters, hand-drawn weather maps, Betacam & U-Matic videotape... and no prompters on the studio cameras? Music in this clip sounds familiar too... sounds like something used during sports segments (highlight reels etc.)

    Who can name the familiar faces in this promo?  I see Sharon Burkhart and Bob McIntyre... who else is seen here?

see all

  • I had forgotten about how crazy their vehicles looked. Man this takes me back.

  • Sharon! Oh Sharon Burkhart is so hot

    

  • Sharon Burkhart is such a babe.

    Always was. I sent her an email at the Orillia hospital but she never replied.

  • what do you mean by that?

  • And apparently he was a news anchor at North Bay's CKNY when he was only 17. I hope I read that right...

  • Kevin Marks Rules so hard

  • I think that is Kevin Marks at the desk sporting the stash and white suite from the Barry Gibb collection.

  • Indeed Kevin Frankish is shown here. Voiceover by Ron Hewat, former Toronto Maple Leaf play-by-play announcer. Former CKNX announcer Sharon Burkhart also shows up in this clip. Note Bob McIntyre's vintage New Jersey Devil hat in one brief snippet.

  • My heart is all a-flutter with seeing a vintage Suzanne Legue stand-up...very much a MILF to this day handling PR for Barrie's Royal Victoria Hospital.

  • barrie has changed alot since 1988.
