What's on TV? Tuesday, October 16, 1973



In case you were tuning in early today to find out whether or not I've solved the Blogger problem, you can see for yourself the results. A little extra work, but we spare no expense here for our readers, even if it's only the precious gift of time. Anyway, I suppose tonight's World Series game is the highlight for sports fans, but as I mentioned on Saturday, you might find two movies worth your while: Kim Novak and Tony Curtis in The Third Girl on the Left, and Peter Ustinov in Viva Max! Still, I'm sure you'll be able to find your favorites; today's listings are from the Philadelphia-New York metro area.

  1. On the 3:30 PM time slot, you have "Return to Peyton Place" on both the NBC (KYW and WNBC) and ABC (WPVI and WABC) affiliates, when the two ABC stations should be listing "One Life to Live".

    ReplyDelete
  2. You've listed WOR Channel 9 as an NBC station.

    ReplyDelete
  3. Curious ... was the 1966 movie "The Cat" a pilot for the old Robert Loggia series?

    ReplyDelete
  4. Per the NY Daily News listings for that day, this was not a pilot for T.H.E Cat.

    4- Movie "The Cat," Dewayne Redlin. Boy lost in the mountains becomes friends with a tame wildcat.
