June 18, 2013: The Law

 

I added fifteen more ads today, all from October 1985, plus two more Random Pages gallery additions from Peach Sections of The Blade. Both are “Around Toledo Television” columns by Tom Ensign. There's a Wednesday, 10/2/85 story, “Channel 30 Slates Special 25th Anniversary Programs.” The other one is a Wednesday, 10/9/85 story, “Channel 36 Offers 'INDAY' News, Information Service” and also includes other items, about The Sporting Life on channel 13, Nightline and The Waltons on channel 24 and competing Sunday night prime-time shows. There's a TV Guide ad for INDAY, here. There are five additions to the Channel 36 gallery, all for their Cinema 36 Prime Time Movie. The first three are for Humphrey Bogart movies, a Tuesday, 10/1/85 ad for “Key Largo,” a Wednesday, 10/2/85 ad for “The Big Sleep” and a Friday, 10/4/85 ad for one of my all-time favorite movies, “Treasure of the Sierra Madre.” There are two more for John Wayne movies, a Tuesday, 10/15/85 ad for “El Dorado” and a Wednesday, 10/16/85 ad for “The Shootist.” There's one addition to the PBS gallery for channel 30, a Thursday, 10/17/85 ad for the premiere of a 13-part WGTE produced series, The Law, “A Case of Murder.” There are five additions to the Buckeye CableSystem gallery, including a Tuesday, 10/15/85 ad for CBN game shows, Tic Tac Dough, Go Show and $100,000 Name That Tune.
