What's on TV? Saturday, August 29, 1964

Another week, another trip - this time back to the Eastern Seaboard, and the City of Brotherly Love. I don't have a lot to add to this week's listings in the way of local insights, so why not just get out of the way and let them speak for themselves?

  1. Thanks for this. Especially the memories of Pixanne and Gene London. I also did not know Bullwinkle and Rocky and His Friends were on TV at the same time. I was all of two years old.

  2. THE LIEUTENANT was never in color, and JOEY BISHOP wouldn't be, once it moved to CBS the following month
