From "Millionaire Pete Marlowe". Agfa-Gevaert stock that possibly dates to the early 1980s.
Thanks to Austin at Reel Revival Film for scanning this print!

This is higher quality than the telecine prints of the show that used to air on Decades until that channel changed its name to Catchy Comedy (love that name) in 2022. Though this can do some dirt removal, or is the film printed like that?

The prints used by Decades were sourced from Digital Betacam and were SD only. They look decent, but I wish the show had been transferred in higher quality. As for this print, I cleaned it twice. Sometimes, no matter how much you clean it, some of the dirt will still remain; of course, some of the specs can’t be removed via cleaning because those were on the internegative.

I miss Decades. I would wake up every morning at 6:00 to watch “The Millionaire” and I was always so happy to see the V of Doom.
