What's on TV? Tuesday, June 27, 1967

Here we are, with spring turning to summer, and it's another day in television land. (As opposed to TV Land™) With the summer schedule, we won't see as much notable television as usual, since the bulk of the broadcast schedule is comprised of reruns and summer tryouts. There are noteworthy things on today, CBS's inquiry into the Warren Report being foremost among them, but even here I'm sure you can find your favorites from days past.

DUOLOGUE

The Pan American Games have always been held the year preceding the Summer Olympics, and as the final big tuneup for the Games, they've always gotten a certain amount of publicity, although I don't think they're as big now as they used to be. I'm somewhat surprised that they'd be covered on public television, even if it's only the trials.

Although in 1967 we had yet to move to the World's Worst Town™, the afternoon schedule is very much like what I would see when I lived there: the time from 4:00 or so to 5:30 consists of ABC programming from earlier in the week, mostly cartoons. The Green Hornet and Batman (Friday afternoon) are two exceptions, although you could make the case for them being "live-action cartoons."

It's frequently seen on public television throughout the '60s, and it's available on DVD today.

The Borgia Stick is credited as the first made-for-TV movie, although it would probably be more accurate to say that it was the first made-for-TV movie to be aired on television, given that The Killers, with Lee Marvin, Angie Dickinson, and Ronald Reagan, was made for television but released to the theaters instead, being deemed too violent for TV.
