I notice that WKBW pre-empted "Dating Game" and "Newlywed
Game" in favor of a movie from 6:30-8:30. That's the first time
I've seen a station other than Atlanta's Ch. 11, which did the
same thing at the time, doing that; 11's movie that Saturday
was "The Left Hand Of God". Now if you tell me that Ch. 7 also
had one on Fridays at 7:30 I'm going into shock because Ch. 11
had one.
