[WMC2006]

WCVB-TV 5 (ABC)

6pm- NewsCenter 5- (with Chet Curtis, Natalie Jacobson, Dick Albert and Lee Webb?)

Lee Webb came from nowhere to replace Don Gillis as lead sports anchor when Gillis retired from sports anchoring back in 1983. Webb lasted a couple of non-memorable years and then weekend sports anchor Mike Lynch took over as lead sports anchor and is still there today. Lynchie is the only one left of that foursome following Dick Albert's retirement earlier this year; Natalie's retirement a couple of years ago; and Chet Curtis heading to New England Cable News a few years back.

I believe Webb works for some religious cable network.

After retiring from sports anchoring, Gillis continued to host WCVB's Candlepin Bowling until 1996. He passed away last year:

schedule would be exactly the same, so why bother?

 

[mleach]

Was WBZ's "People are Talking" a local show for Boston or did they simply air the Group W/WJZ Baltimore version with Richard Sher and Oprah Winfrey?

I believe for a very very brief time in the early 80s under Sher/Winfrey the Baltimore "People are Talking" was actually syndicated to a handful of markets. Acutally one could count the number of markets that did carry the show on one hand and still have a few fingers left.

I am pretty sure Salisbury, MD's WMDT channel 47 aired People are Talking and I would like to say some station in central Pennsylvania ( Harrisburg? ) had aired it as well and over the years I have heard of a third but I have not a clue as to who that third was.

 

[azumanga]

Was WBZ's "People are Talking" a local show for Boston or did they simply air the Group W/WJZ Baltimore version with Richard Sher and Oprah Winfrey?

I always thought each Group W station ran their own version, along the same lines as Evening (PM) Magazine.

Sometime after becoming WWOR, that superstation also had their own "People Are Talking" for a year or two -- this would later become "9 Broadcast Plaza" (after its address). WWOR apparently picked up the PAT franchise (and Evening Magazine, under that name), in anticipation for RKO's sale to Group W that was never realised (it went to MCA instead, which debuted those programs after getting the station).

 

[WMC2006]

WBZ's version was it's own and was hosted at various times by various people including Tom Bergeron who has since gone on to fame and fortune as host of various shows including Hollywood Squares, America's Funniest Videos and, of course, that Dancing show.

WBZ aired PAT from 1980-1993. Tom hosted from about 1987 until it's cancellation.

 

[mleach]

I always thought each Group W station ran their own version, along the same lines as Evening (PM) Magazine.

I could be wrong about this but I don't think Pittsburgh's KDKA-TV did their own "People are Talking" but KDKA did have "Pittsburgh 2day" which from the few times I can remember seeing it was about the same thing anyway.

Around the same time as Baltimore's WJZ did "People are Talking" with Sher & Winfrey, WMAR channel 2 somewhat tried to copy it with "2's Company" hosted by Bruce Elliott ( it didnt last ). I would like to say WBAL did something similar as well but I just don't remember it.

Meanwhile down in DC...WTTG had Maury Povich with Panarama, WRC had Charlie Rose and WDVM (WUSA) had Morning Break with Carol Randolf. WJLA had "Good Morning Washington", forgot who the host was for that but that was the show were Happy Days Anson Williams had let it slipped that he was "sick of being Potsie and Happy Days". Come to think of it I am pretty sure at the time ( early 80s ) WDCA still had the great Petey Greene on their airwaves.

No shortage of local TV talk in the DC/Baltimore region back then.

 

[Stanislav]

WJLA had "Good Morning Washington", forgot who the host was for that but that was the show were Happy Days Anson Williams had let it slipped that he was "sick of being Potsie and Happy Days".

Of course, by then, the feeling was mutual -- we, the viewers, were sick of watching Potsie and Happy Days. :
