The theme song for that 4:00 movie "Riviera Affair" by Neil Richardson - such a vibe 🥰 I was coasting through my senior year in high school. Great times.

Wow- Starcrash played this day. Nice! It feels just like yesterday I saw these. Amazing how familiar they still feel. Thanks for posting! ~ Caretaker

Wow. I remember most of the commercials. Nostalgia really does hurt. What a great time that was.

Nostalgia makes me feel truly sublime❤️

Thanks for the video. Good times in the 80's. Or at least it felt that way. I remember channel 9 WOR being in the cable TV channel line up back in the early 80's. Rural area in Pennsylvania being first in the nation to have cable TV.

Mahanoy City? And Service Electric?

No trace of Cracklebred on the internet.

"The 4 O'Clock Movie" opening titles (also used for closing) were laid out with the "Scanimate" video animation process by Image West c.1977, using the same coordinates as they had when doing the opening titles for the Robert Wagner/Eddie Albert caper drama "Switch." The closing version on this clip is the first to have the extra opening note that has not been represented up to now, of the (sped up about 2 or 3 percent) KPM production-music track "Prestige Production" (retroactively retitled "The Riviera Affair") by Neil Richardson. By the point of this aircheck, only Phil Tonken and Ted Mallie were left of WOR-TV's announcing staff; Russ Dunbar and Frank McCarthy were by then gone, as were Jesse Elin Browne (who was headed for Chicago around this point), freelancer Ray Marlin (who would last a few more years at WTNH Channel 8 in New Haven, CT), and possibly also part-timer Art Helmer.

29:24 - LOL at her slipping up!

[@3hooks781]

13:40 She did also! LOL!

I hear Godley and Creme's "An Englishman in New York" in the Cracklebred ad at 16:31.

Hall's ad shot at Giants Stadium, Rutherford NJ. Typical WOR gaffe, those in background of news updates shouldn't be eating or looking at the camera.
