What's on TV? Thursday, June 2, 1966

The listings this week are a real mess, and I mean this in a good way. One of the great things about TV Guides of this era is the local element, and I'm not just talking about the programs listed, but the fact that these program sections are assembled and printed locally. Particular quirks that might be present in one edition aren't there in another, and this issue is proof that there's no standardization guide, or at least not one present this week. Take, for example, The McCoys, the daytime title of the long-running prime-time sitcom The Real McCoys. If you skip down just a few lines, you see that this is how it's listed at KOOK—Real McCoys. That's also how it reads at KXLF. However, if you go down a few lines, at KXLY (which shows it at a different time), it's just McCoys.

Same goes for The Baron; we've talked about TV Guide's longstanding policy that omits articles at the beginning of show titles, yet at 10:00 p.m. on KREM, there it is: The Baron. But at 10:30 p.m. on KOOK, it's Baron. KOOKy, indeed. On KXGN, the half-hour game show Password is on at 3:00 p.m., but at 3:15 p.m. it's Guiding Light. I checked other days of the week just to make sure this wasn't a one-day typo, but no: it's that way every day of the week. Where does the other half of Password go? And, of course, some shows are in color on one station but in black-and-white on another, depending on whether or not they're shown live on the network feed. And so on. Some people might consider these to be sloppy flaws, but I think it's all kind of charming, if perhaps a bit frustrating. But that's what you get with this week's Montana Edition.
