NBC "NFL '85" promo (also includes doubleheader promo of L.A. Raiders/Cleveland and Seattle/Denver)

Bob Costas with another promo for "NFL '85"

A third "NFL '85" promo-- this one centers on Ahmad Rashad. Bob Costas has, I think, a pretty funny one-liner when he catches the football that Ahmad throws:

 

"We gotta get him his own dressing room..."

 

Apparently, Bob was studying his material for the program when Ahmad threw that football.

 

Ahmad is described as having been drafted by "the team who's putting the fun back in football."

WSOC Charlotte, NC '86 "EWN" news update, plus "Entertainment Tonight" short promo (using ABC's 1986 'Together' template, which apparently applied to ABC stations as well, not just the network; I liked the voiceover that stated: "Cheryl Ladd: tomorrow @ 7:30 on 9"), and an ABC Sunday Night Movie "we now continue" bump for "A Smoky Mountain Christmas"

2/19/1985 KPIX Eyewitness News Nightcast - Part 1 of 3

 

 

Parts 2 and 3 are easy enough to find from that link. Full newscast from a transition period at KPIX -- several months after a new set and logo debuted, but before the graphics and music were changed, though some unique weather graphics had switched over.

 

Number one newscast though. You have to respect the quick but still easy to follow pacing of the pre-show.
