WHBQ Memphis - Fall 1964 Television Line-up Preview hosted by Sivad (1964)
I always loved this video. I saw it years ago. WHBQ was owned by RKO General at the time, and was a decent ABC affiliate. In the 1970s their news ratings went gangbusters. Sivad was Davis spelled backwards, as in WHBQ promotions employee Watson Davis. In 1990, RKO General sold the station, and the employees put this and many other great WHBQ moments on a videotape. You can't beat a vampire doing Lugosi with a Southern accent.
