CBS "In Color" ID / My Three Sons Open/Close (1969)

From "Who Is Sylvia?" From a U-Matic master.

Pretty cool to see a print of "My Three Sons" with the CBS "In Color" logo and the original sponsor tags, and it advertises a product that's still sold today!

Damn. An original master, no less.

Rare to see an CBS in color ID on an show like this!

[@ericjonmagnuson2728]

I thought I mentioned this earlier, but I didn't know initially whether Mr. MacMurray regularly mentioned the sponsor during the open ("Hi, welcome to our show for Bristol-Myers"). (In reruns, of course, his portion would've been trimmed or perhaps cut altogether.) As it turns out, it looks like he did--and the same thing might've been done on Family Affair.

Keep in mind, the 1970's were imminently dawning and My Three Sons started off the decade being one of two family sitcoms with a blended family- the other was The Brady Bunch!!!

0:33 - That tapping wingtip shoe needed to stay in beat, so they cut a few frames out of the animation here. Happens a few times if you pay attention. That foot got sloppy as the seasons progressed. BTW, love the additional musical arrangements and trills Frank deVol uses.

Bristol Myers/Clairol also co-sponsored "Bewitched" for the 6th season

If you have season 12 original opening credits, be so cool to see those...have not been aired since the original run

[@TheVintageTVArchive]

I’ve been looking for those for years, and no one has found them so far, not even me.

[@RedDogLunch]

TheVintageTVArchive I do believe they are out there , but I don’t think they have ever been included in any distribution packages of the show...I’ve never seen those , but I’m assuming they include Dawn Lyn and Ronne Troupe , as they are not in the closing credits for the season 12 episodes currently aired ...

[@ChadQuick270W]

Yes those seem to be the “holy grail” so to speak as they’re never seen on tv these days. Heck the season 12 episodes on MeTV are the same horrible syndicated prints from the 1970s with really bad edits in them.

[@mullauna]

They do - and Dawn's last name is mis-spelt as Lynn - something that could not have been fixed post-production without much difficulty in 1971 @@RedDogLunch

That is a nice theme song.

[@frankdenardo8684]

Oscar winning actress Jane Wyman was in this episode way before Angela Channing on Falcon Crest.

[@jaredjlinden]

MacMurray and Wyman had costarred in Disney’s Bon Voyage movie a few years earlier.
