By request, from the Denver Post:


KBTV (KUSA) Ch. 9 (ABC)

 4:30 Regis Presents (Regis Philbin?)
 

I am thinking the "Regis" here was Denver's Regis University. Even if this is the case, ah can't rule out Regis Philbin making at least an appearance there. Maybe its the location of Denver ( what is the next closest "big" city to Denver..Kansas City? Phoenix? Neither aren't exactly "close by" ),  anyway some of those colleges and universities in Denver over the years has been known to get some famous folks to speak to their students. Back in the late 80's Denver's Colorado Instutue of Art had thier own local cable show on then Mile High Cable 10. Among the guests that school somehow managed to get to appear on their show over a period of six months were Roseanne Barr, the rock band AC/DC, Faye Dunaway, Bill Cosby, Alex Trebek, Carol Burnett, Phil Donahue and Martha Quinn from MTV. Pretty good for a local cable show that was sponsored by a school.

Going back to Regis Philbin...come to think of it I believe he DID work for Denver's channel 9 at one point but I thought for sure it was in the 70's, not back in 1962.

The first I remember of Regis Philbin was in the later 60s I believe.

Interesting in that we discussed in an Atlanta/Chatanooga/et al thread
that ABC chose not to run Welk/boxing live on the EST/CST split feed
(which was also passed through to the MST stations) because it would
force the 7:30-8:30 EDT shows to the end of the schedule, yet here
KBTV does just that from 9-10 MT, following 6:30-9 live net.

Beany at 6 (7 ET/5 MT) is referenced as "see Matty's Funday Funnies"
in Brooks & Marsh.


BTW, several references show "Reege" as being on KOGO-TV San Diego
during this period of the 1960s.

I knew that "Reege" was working in San Diego at
the time; he had, IIRC, a late-Saturday-night talk
show. I didn't know if any other stations carried it,
but apparently it was local.  I never heard of Regis
University but somehow that makes more sense,
since I never heard of a Regis Philbin-hosted show
called "Regis Presents."

I'm also surprised Ch. 9 didn't take the whole ABC
feed live from 5 PM (MT).  "Calvin And The Colonel,"
an animated show, got on relatively late in Denver.

I should add re "Beany And Cecil" that the show did
begin in 1959 as "Matty's Funday Funnies," with the
Harvey characters (Casper the Friendly Ghost, et. al.).
Beany and Cecil replaced them in January 1962 and the
show's title was changed to "Matty's Funnies With Beany
And Cecil"; by summer it was listed in TV Guide and newspapers
as "Beany And Cecil."  BTW, Matty Mattel and Sister Belle,
for those who don't remember, were animated spokescharacters
for Mattel Toys.  They were made into toys in their own right,
and were big sellers at the time.

Though its not in his credits, I believe Regis also hosted a San Diego morning show called "Sun-Up." Maybe that was a year or two later.  In the mid 60s, he hit the "big-time" ( Grin) at KHJ-TV Los Angeles as one of the hosts of their Tempo programs...live call-in and interview talk shows...essentially talk radio with a camera pointed at it.

I'm curious why Perry Mason played so early in the evening (5:30).  It was still first-run.  Didn't network programming start at 6:30 central in those days?

Denver is Mountain Time.  The prime time feed came down from 5:30-9 (5-9 on
Sundays).  So KLZ-TV could either run it live at 5:30 or tape it (assuming at
least two VTRs in-house) and flip to 9:00.

MT stations back then were more likely to run weekends all live (some didn't
as is shown in this thread's listings), however weekdays were generally 6:30-10
and the schedule varied by station as to what was live net and what was delayed.
The delayed could be tape or 16mm film, with some one- and two-week delays,
especially with film.

Once a station acquired four VTRs that could be assigned to net delay, and the
machines were deemed reliable, they could then easily delay all of prime time by
one hour in pattern.
