hmaxhanson 649 Posted July 30, 2019 Share Posted July 30, 2019 (edited) Some commercials from ABC's airings of the Amerika mini-series, taped off WOLO in Columbia. There are news updates with Centerpiece by Soundtrack Music as the theme, back then they had just a 6pm newscast, the 11pm slot was filled by Threes Company reruns with a weather update.

That’s because NO ONE could compete with WIS at the time. And they still can’t, even though WLTX has been getting up there.... Florida man and Florida woman (WSVN’s Jim Berry and WESH’s Robin Chapman) have the weekend news for the nation’s capital on this November day in 1985. On the Discord chat, we’ve been having a theory that WJLA debuted the supposed 1984 theme and ugly red set around Spring 1986 sweeps. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
