Rare CBS Television Network ''Fall Line up'' Special
A rare 1968 CBS Television Network special designed to promote the network's fall schedule. Shows promoted include: "Mayberry R.F.D.", "Lancer", "The Good Guys", "Blondie" and "Hawaii Five-O". Out of these, "Blondie" was the biggest failure (lasting 13 episodes), while "Hawaii Five-O" was the most successful (lasting 284 episodes). Please forgive the VHS-transfer. This Promo-Special is presented here for historical value. Also, this special runs for 21 minutes, so what the heck was in the other 9 minutes? Couldn't have been commercials, as there were very strict laws on how much advertising could appear during prime time programming (these restrictions, curiously, were much less strict with daytime TV, with some shows being entire plugs for the sponsor). Also, since the shows promoted obviously cannot be uploaded here, this fall-preview special is the next best thing.
