As a New Yorker born and raised, the 10pm slogan is still a part of my life. In my opinion, it gave an important message that children should be safe at home and in bed at 10pm. John Roland has aged a little, but he will always be a part of my New York childhood.

@freakyflow 11 месяцев назад

And a Canadian that watched Western New York Channel 7 as a kid ...I remember my dad telling me at 14 leave wherever you are with the street lights on (930pm) Home by 10pm Because at 10:01 he would be at the door with his arm on the door frame telling me YOU ! in the house. The great thing was We would also get the BBC and all the Britsh comic shows started at 10 And ya the odd nude flash which was amazing at 14 lol

@LogoMan7777 8 месяцев назад

Nowadays, it's not enough just to ask "Do you know where your children are?". Some parents may not know and some parents may not care. You must stir the parents into action if they don't know where their children are at 10PM.

The voice heard at :04 was then Channel 5 staff announcer, Peter Lucas. Until the various celebrities seen began taping their versions, it was handled by other station announcers (full- or part-time) such as Fred Scott, Ed Ladd, Lou Steele, Chuck Caron - and, of course, Tom "Metromedia Man" Gregory. Wonder if Barbara Korsen, when she was at WNEW in the early to mid 1970's (before becoming "vacation relief" at WOR-TV and fill-in/sub-announcer at WABC-TV on her way to becoming an ABC staff announcer), handled that opening announcement. The other question: Given Mel Epstein's original script, at what point would "It's 10 o'clock" have been changed to "It's 10 P.M."?
