You just did..I was sort of aware that "Valentine's" was tape delayed but didnt look it up to be sure..And I cant edit my own posts after awhile..

"Valentine's Day" seemed to get delayed on a number of stations.
I know that in these parts the ABC affiliates in Atlanta and High
Point, NC (and possibly Asheville) ran movies on Friday nights and
delayed the show to Saturday or Sunday. Other than her role as
Valentine Farrow's secretary, the only time I've ever actually seen
Janet Waldo was in the "I Love Lucy" episode where she plays a
teenager with a huge crush on Desi, while Richard Crenna (still using
his Walter Denton voice from "Our Miss Brooks") develops one on Lucy.

What's really strange is to see a station with "Eyewitness News" this
far back, until I remember that KYW was owned by Westinghouse.
I don't think the concept really took off until WABC started in in '68;
by my freshman year in high school (1969-70) I was seeing stations
in the Carolinas, Georgia, Florida, and Tennessee picking up the format.
However, I was in Birmingham at the time, and the stations there steadfastly
refused to convert to it--the old "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" line--although
Tuscaloosa's WCFT did adopt it later. (But then again, the Birmingham stations
were still doing news, weather, and sports as separate programs into the '70s.)

Janet Waldo was 28 when that show aired in 1952. She's still alive and kicking at age 87 - the last surviving member of the original cast of The Jetsons.

KGUN-TV Tucson also played the DB game with Valentine's Day, pushing it
to Sunday at 6. It was still a 16mm film print, which is what it aired from
on KTVK Phoenix Friday at 8.

She has made several appearances on Stu Shostak's Internet Radio Show..Even now, she still sounds like a teenager..And a very delightful interview..

Shostak's radio show has recently changed in that there is no longer a radio station connected with it..Each episode is aired once live (Wednesdays at 4PM Pacific, 7PM Eastern) and immediately put into their archive. For a nominal fee of 99 cents per 2 hour show, the archive of over 250 shows is available for download.
