WAGM Channel 8 Presque Isle (CBS, NBC, ABC)
6:00 Potato Pickers

Come on... Seriously? THIS was the name of their local morning show? Was it via satellite from Idaho?

WAGM Channel 8 Presque Isle (CBS, NBC, ABC)
6:00 Potato Pickers

Come on... Seriously? THIS was the name of their local morning show? Was it via satellite from Idaho?

From Wikipedia...
"During the fall potato harvest (potatoes being the most important industry in the region) the annual Potato Picker's Special is aired from 4:30 to 6 in the morning for six days a week on WAGM. The program announces details from area farmers with regards to the harvest."

For the record, McCain's Florenceville world HQ was in the station's analog coverage area ;D

CELEBRITY DOMINOES??!! ???


er.....I hate to bring up any painful Dudley Do-Right stereotypes for our friends north of the border, but...

 

[McCorryKL]

Yep, Potato Pickers was a WAGM-produced daily update for people participating in the potato harvest. Can't comment on it because I never did see it, not having cable TV at home at the time and not getting up in the mornings early enough at my grandparents' place (they had cable) to watch it- even if I were to be interested enough to do so.

Celebrity Dominoes I can't say I remember ever watching either. If I wasn't in school when it was on, I'd have been watching CBC programming instead. From what I've read, it was one of the least successful shows CTV ever produced.

 

[FreddyE1977]

so the result on today's programme, it's Anne Murray over Pat Boutette by a lockdown to a pair of houses...
