May 16, 1987 Commercial Breaks - WTBS (Ind., Atlanta)

Commercial breaks from the Hollywood Classics presentation of "The Americano," as broadcast on "SuperStation 17" WTBS in Atlanta. SuperStation 17 was the localized over-the-air feed of "SuperStation WTBS," airing Atlanta-focused commercials, promos, and public affairs programming.
WTBS broke off from the national TBS schedule on October 1, 2007, at which time it became independent station "Peachtree TV" WPCH. In 2017, TimeWarner (which had purchased Turner Broadcasting in 1996) sold off WPCH to Meredith, who had been operating the station since 2011, to expedite the TimeWarner-AT&T merger.
Georgia and Tennessee Radio Halls of Fame announcer John Young is heard on most TBS/WTBS promos.

I saw some Recreational Factory Warehouse ads here in the Tampa Bay Area during this period. Also, I occasionally saw some SuperStation 17 and TBS 17 IDs slip through on TBS' national feed back in the day.

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

Those "17" ID's were only seen in Atlanta only though not surprising if they crept into the national feed now and then.

[@marcus813]

@@ChristopherSobieniak They definitely did creep in. When you run 2 feeds, something's bound to slip through every now and then.

[@ChristopherSobieniak]

@@marcus813 Yeah I thought I saw a "17" pop up once in the 90's on TBS.

Can’t wait to get my free 19 inch color tv!

Esther huston actress aka ernest scared stupid who plays kenny 's mother from the 1991 film ernest scared stupid was in a water grabber commercial back in 1987 aired on superstation wtbs 17 atlanta

[@Misfit_Kitten]

I haven't seen a Roses commercial in years! 10:40 He's _what_ than anybody???

[@friesareyummy]

I haven't seen one either. Rose's stopped spending money, focusing on buying cheaper items. Makes sense, they have the cheapest items of any store nowadays. Saw some Fred's (a defunct convenience store chain) items a few weeks back. Two for $1 offer on 30 pencil erasers.

[@marcus813]

I didn't even know it existed until one of its stores opened across town from where I live a few years ago.
