While going through a lot of Mega Man NT Warrior tapes, I found.. quite the large station screw-up. For a bit of context, WZPX is the only station to be a dual PAX/WB affiliate, and during the early morning hours, they'd usually show infomercials or PAX promos before transitioning into Kids' WB. Obviously though, some technician was having.. a rather sleepy start, to put it lightly.
First off, the tape cuts into some internal promos for Ellen, given to the station by Warner Bros. Domestic Syndication. Pretty sure these aren't supposed to be here - regardless, they go on for about five and a half minutes. The next minute and a half are quite the ride - we cycle through a Tempurpedic infomercial, to a partial WB promo for Summerland, into another Ellen promo card, into some guy eating chips from some PAX broadcast, back into the Tempurpedic infomercial, and finally back into an airing of Axess.. about 2 - 4 minutes after it had already started. Great. Really, I don't know what to say about this, aside from the fact that it's really funny it happened in the first place.
