2 Coronation Street BW

Wasn't Corrie in color by this time?

4 $10,000 Pyramid (wasn't this CBS? $20,000 premiered on ABC in '76 I think)]

Karen's values are tested when she falls for a public-relations man who represents Open America's opponents. Karen: Karen Valentine. [Since it was ABC, and KOMO aired it at 8:30, was this tape, or telco line to another time zone?]

At the time, Canadian networks tended to air pre-recorded and filmed programs before they air in the US, sometimes up to a couple of weeks beforehand. They get the shows direct from the producers.

 

[crainbebo]

Nope. The Coronation Street episodes on 2/21 and 2/22 were listed as B/W as well.

[azumanga]

Nope. The Coronation Street episodes on 2/21 and 2/22 were listed as B/W as well.

I wonder why it was listed as a black-and-white show? Corrie was in color full-time since 1969 (apart from a period when union action in early 1971 took the show back to B&W).

 

[crainbebo]

I wonder if either CBUT didn't have the capability to air the show in color (but air most others in color), or they were running pre-1969 reruns.
