CORRECTIONS

"CBS: On the Air"

Ignore the 'Goth' after 'Brady Bunch' which was part of 'Gotham' for the Merv Griffin Show.

KCET's channel number is 28.
 
That 1978 Kings hockey broadcast on KHJ was on a half-hour delay, which had to be a chore. The game would have started at 5:30 PT.
 
It would appear that at least in 1967, the CBS affiliate was on a "Central Time" pattern during the day.
That's the way it's been for all network affiliates' schedules for Pacific Time: "Central" schedule for daytime, "Eastern" schedule for primetime.
 
Here's more info on that week's "CBS: On the Air - A Celebration of 50 Years"
Main hosts: Walter Cronkite and Mary Tyler Moore
Source: thetvdb.com (The TV Database)

Sunday, March 26: "The Night of 100 Stars" - Co-hosts: Telly Savalas, Jean Stapleton; Special guest stars: Alfred Hitchcock, Bob Keeshan (aka "Captain Kangaroo") Opening with between 115-125 CBS stars! Next is a look at the network's beginnings on radio in 1927, and finally a look at CBS' Sunday TV programs, including The Ed Sullivan Show, 60 Minutes, You Are There, Lassie, and The Smothers Brothers Comedy Hour.

Monday, March 27: "Have a Laugh on Us" - Co-hosts: Lucille Ball, George Burns, Arthur Godfrey, Bea Arthur.

Tuesday, March 28: "Chills and Thrills with a Laugh Chaser" - Co-hosts: Alan Alda, Gary Moore and Phil Silvers; Featured: Edward R. Murrow's landmark critique of Sen. Joseph McCarthy and his "Red Scare".

Wednesday, March 29: "Dreams Come True" - Charlie Brown and the Penuts gang join host Dick Van Dyke in a song-and-dance number. Co-hosting were Buddy Ebsen, Cicely Tyon, and Danny Kaye.

Thursday, March 30: "Join the Family" - Richard Thomas and the rest of The Waltons cast host this night.

Friday, March 31: "We're Getting Personal" - Hosts: Lauren Bacall, Eve Arden, Bert Convy, Richard Crenna, Bonnie Franklin, Jim Nabors, Linda Lavin; Bacall hosts a segment on Edward R. Murrow's Person to Person interview program, featuring interviews with her and husband Humphrey Bogart, plus Marlon Brando and Senator John F. and Jackie Kennedy.

Saturday, Apri1: "A Rootin', Tootin', Hootin', Hollerin' Salute to the Cowbows and Clowns" - Hosts: Carol Burnett, Carroll O'Connor, Art Carney, Isabel Sanford, Sherman Hemsley, Tony Randall.
