Retro: Network Friday-night schedules in the 1960s

I know. This is one of those "endless" retro schedules,
but if you grew up in the '60s, I'd be curious as to what
shows you got to stay up to see. All these are fall
schedules and do not reflect midseason changes. Source:
Castleman and Podrazik, "The TV Schedule Book." New
shows are in CAPS.
