What's on TV? Thursday, October 3, 1968

It's always nice to be back in the Twin Cities, even though there isn't a lot of remarkable programming this week. The World Series, still an all-daytime affair in 1968, is of course the big show of the day, but I'm sure you can find some other interesting tidbits here. For example, there's an ad for KMSP's Saturday night movie, Lolita, which was such a shock back in the day that the tagline reads, "How did they ever make a movie out of Lolita? The answer: not very well.
