KING 5-NBC Seattle

10:30 AM - Stumpers (guests Jack Cassidy and Mike Farrell)

Sadly, this would be one of Jack Cassidy's last TV appearances. He died 3 days earlier in a fire while sleeping with a cigarette in his apartment.

5:00 PM - Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman

One of the first times I've seen this show being on in the afternoon as it usually either aired at the Noon hour or late at night.

I'm guessing this parade was syndicated; however, was this live or taped, it seems kind of weird for a live parade to start at 7 AM Pacific Time(other than the Rose Parade).

For that instance, it's also unusual for a parade to be seen at this time on a non-holiday weekday, when kids are likely getting ready for school (if not at school).

I would bet that this parade was pre-recorded from Hollywood. (In that case, would this be the same parade as the Hollywood Christmas Parade?)

When "MH2" debuted in January 1976 WXIA Atlanta carried it at 3:30 PM, bumping "One Life To Live" to the morning (where it had aired from September 1972-January 1975). But after a few weeks it was moved to 11:30 PM; reruns of "Dark Shadows" then aired until "OLTL" and "General Hospital" were expanded to 45 minutes each in the summer of 1976 (11 Alive ran both in pattern), and ABC's late-night programming was delayed until midnight.

...which leads to the question, did NBC actually run that week's episodes with Cassidy or pre-empt them with reruns?...
