6:09 Remember when there were two Germanies? It's funny to think that this was only a generation ago. The world map has changed so much since I was a kid.

1:06 very odd Halloween 2 and 3:06 Halloween 3 aired days after Halloween. I checked the tv listings for Halloween and wpix aired one flew over the cuckoo next in the 8:00pm time slot

I think the dates are off by a week because Halloween in 1988 was on a Monday. I doubt they would still be showing horror films after Halloween. Only cable would do that, but usually now the day after Halloween you see Christmas commercials.

@@a.b.sproductionsllc broadcast tv always showed the same horror films a couple of weeks after halloween, I remember Halloween the curse of Michael Myers airing the sunday after Halloween in 1997

Interesting to see the Child's Play trailer on WPIX, since this station would show it three years later!

And for the next twenty years.

With WPIX airing Cheers reruns, it's no wonder they spoofed the theme song in a WPIX promo the year before this!
