This is the 2nd design of NET's "House" (🏠) logo, introduced on April 17, 1960. It's the same design as before, but there's a lot of changes to this logo. First, the font for the phrase "NET" has changed to Venus Bold. Then, like the previous logo, it's spaced out & releases from the "southern border" (⬇️) of the house. Next, the roof (♜) is thicker, connecting to the end of the "T". Finally, like the previous logo, the antenna (📡) remains the same. NET's "House" (🏠) logo is skipped (⏭️) sometime in November of 1964, when the "Burning Globe" logo takes over. (Warning: be careful in that ident, because there's fire in that ident. The fire might burn everything. If you touch the fire, it'll burn you & that'll pay over $5.75 if you call 911. It's too dangerous to have a fire in everywhere.)

Parents owned a 74 Grandville with a 455 under the hood...that was a fun, luxurious and fast car!...flip that air filter cover over and let her growl!...
I hope y'all will reply to this David Ogden Stiers in the Listerine commercial this was three or four years before he played Major Charles Emerson Winchester the third on the CBS sitcom M*A*S*H* and the voice over was Peter Thomas who was the voice over in so many commercials and hosted Forensic Files he lived to an old age either 94 or 97 years old

I was 14 in 1974 and this flashback is kinda weird, it doesn't seem that long ago, before Internet, we were naive but had real mysteries. I remember thinking how computers you just press a button, I've avoided tech as much as possible, even today.
I was born & raised in Madison. These truly bring back wonderful memories! I wish my parents could see these - they would be blown away. Thank you so much!
@cainealexander-mccord2805 this was three or four years before he played Major Charles Emerson Winchester the third on the CBS sitcom M*A*S*H*....he was on Matlock several times playing the DA (district attorney)...I hope you will reply to this
@@sherryhannah498 I'm well acquainted with his work on MASH. (It's my fave. I have the box set but watch online too!) I didn't really watch "Matlock", so I missed out on that. I was delighted when he turned up on "Frasier" and I got to hear his non-accented speech. I think I prefer the Boston accent!
5:58 - Sinarest - Looks like it might have been animated by Cliff Roberts, who did the "I've Got a Mind" segments for the early years of "Sesame Street". The style is very similar.
If you have some commercial breaks from Wausau stations WSAW (7) or WAOW (are these the correct call letters for Channel 9?) from this same (mid-1970s) era, I'd appreciate that. Thanks.
I looked just about everywhere for stuff from those two stations. I feel pretty confident in saying that just about everything that's out there is posted on my channel.
2:22 - Carmelita Pope for Pam cooking spray. 3:22 - Norman Fell for American Express. 3:54 - Bo Swenson for Wood Crafter furniture polish. 6:30 - Dick Tufeld does the voiceover in that promo for ABC's Tuesday Movie of the Week (The Mark of Zorro). 12:49 - Euell Gibbons for Post Grape-Nuts. 13:19 - Johnny Olson does the voiceover in that game show spot for B.F. Goodrich Fixer tires. 13:49 - David Ogden Stiers as Darby Dawg, the country DJ in that ad for Listerine. 17:27 - Dick Tufeld again, this time on the voiceover for ABC's Wednesday Movie of the Week (Death Cruise). 19:29 - Lauren Hutton is among the models in that Revlon Touch & Glow commercial. 21:02 - George Montgomery for Pledge furniture polish. 21:32 - TV spot for The Towering Inferno. 22:03 - Debbie Reynolds for Singer sewing machines. There are a number of other recognizable faces in various commercials as well, but I don't know their names. They're people you saw all the time on TV shows and commercials in the '70s.
This is it! This is it! Oh my gosh, I didn't just imagine it all these years! Such a memorable tune... and show! The episode about Harriet Tubman was my favorite and profoundly affected me. I wish we could watch this series again.
I loved this series as a kid and it helped spur my interest in history. I don't believe I've ever seen this episode before today. Like many of the Great Adventure stories, it is accurate in spirit more than in details. With the ongoing deconstruction of American history, Pratt today is seen more as a villain than a hero because he pushed for forced assimilation of not only Indians, but all immigrants to America. He understood the alternative would mean marginalization and the creation of a permanent underclass. Looking at the chronically poor status of public housing, generational welfare, and reservation life, I would say he was right.
This show had great potential and showed the best and the worst of our American character. I only wish it was available for educational use in schoolrooms.
Great soundtrack on this episode, but I am afraid I cannot tell the difference between Handel and Bach or between either of them and Mozart. Some of the music used here sounds familiar, though.
Reminds me, too, of Gandhi's march to the sea, at the end of which he made a tiny amount of salt from the ocean, the point of which was that the British had made it illegal for Indians to make their own untaxed salt. The value of the salt was not the point. He had broken a law that was a stupid law, and he got the whole world to watch him do it. The British people saw their own government behaving like an ass and a brute, which ultimately made Indian independence popular among British voters. Similarly, this protest--though apparently fictional--has the same dramatic effect. The value of the raisins is not the point, the exposure of the desperate brutality of the railroad monopoly was worth the effort of the farmers to go around the railroad.
The scene where the men throw rocks at the horses to motivate them to keep moving forward reminds me of another episode of this anthology series about the founder of the ASPCA. (Starring Brian Keith, if I remember rightly.)
Gerry Matthews, whose voice you hear at various points in this video as the man interacting with the dark haired lady, is best known as the voice of Sugar Bear in TV commercials for Sugar Crisp cereal.
