Re: Retro - Tampa Bay Commercial Stations - ACTUALLY OCTOBER 9, 1976

RIGHT DAY - WRONG DATE - The date on there was the date the Newspaper was printed for. Its October 9, 1976
 
"Fury" was an extremely popular kids' adventure show that aired
in first-run on NBC Saturday mornings from 1955-60, then continued
on NBC in reruns until 1966. Peter Graves played bachelor rancher
Jim Newton, Bobby Diamond was his adopted son Joey, and their
black stallion horse Fury. This show was a favorite of Pat Robertson's
in the '70s since it always had a moral (he also liked to carry that other
Saturday-morning horse lovers' favorite, "My Friend Flicka").
 
I never actually saw the TV show Fury - Did see it in some old TV Listings over the years in various markets - mostly the 60's. I do have old listings from VA Beach from 1967 to 2000 (about one group of them per year) - That was one of the first secular shows aired on WYAH from about 1968 to 1972. Back in 1970 WYAH had only an hour to two hours of secular shows a day and about 4 hours of Christian shows a day and was all Christian on Sundays. They used to sign on at like 5 PM even in 1971.

Then from Spring of 1972 to Spring of 1974 they would add a couple hours to the broadcast day - By 3 PM in January 1982 - on the air by 1 PM by the Summer of 72 - on the air by Noon in the fall of 1972 - on the air by 10 AM in the Spring of 1973 - began 7 AM sign ons that fall and slightly earlier by 1974. As they expanded their broadcast day they added secular shows to do that. So by the fall of 1973 they were on the air from 7 AM to 2 AM and were secular about 15 hours a day and by 1974 a conventional independent. By the time WYAH was a traditional indy, Fury was long gone by 1974. So I never saw the show. WYAH did add secular shows Sundays in October of 1980 from 10:30 AM to 3 PM and by 1981 10:30 AM to 5 PM and by 1982 10:30 AM to 7 PM. Maybe CBN Cable ran Fury??? I do not recall it though but they may well have.
 
The corrected listings for October 9, 1976 -- as per the St. Petersburg Times, Lakeland Ledger and Ocala Star Banner. I did not include any changes for the Fort Myers stations, as Google News does not carry archives for Southwest Florida papers or The Miami Herald (which had Fort Myers listings through the 1980s).

And to think that the only live college football telecast anywhere that day was ABC's broadcast of Oklahoma against Texas.

Eight years later, the Supreme Court tossed out the NCAA's TV policies on college football, and today on a Saturday during the season, a fan almost anywhere in the country usually has a choice of at least a couple of games with local or regional teams, and perhaps as many as twenty games nationally shown on broadcast or cable networks.
