Comparing this to the recent 1989 schedule posted for the same market, I see a downward trend in quality, but note that all night infomercials and a lot of the other regrettable ills that now afflict boradcast TV hadn't yet taken hold. E&I hadn't yet destroyed Saturday morning TV. Things got markedly worse in the following years.
