When everypne watched the same 4 channels, tv shows & commercials…… tv commercials were viewed mpre often & were much more important, interesting & entertaining then. I would love to go back & live as an Dult - just to see whar it was like. Thnx for the post!!!
in the beginning of the promo with the "Welcome to A Bright New World of ABC" they referenced its disastrous 1974-75 season in the lyrics ("You'll see great changes made this fall on ABC").
This season's promotional package seems to be what ITV in the UK used during their industrial action (strike) as you see their "Welcome home to ITV - Were back!" promo fits right into the ABC promotion here.
Barbary Coast, a new western entry was however penciled in on the Monday night slot, where The Rookies has been penciled in the Monday night slot, and moved to Tuesdays and pencil out ABC Wednesday Movie of the Week.

This is the start really when ABC would begin to become the #1 network for the rest of the decade.
ABC had 3 of the top 5 shows that season (1975-76). Rich Man, Poor Man was #2. Laverne and Shirley was #3. And, The Bionic Woman was #5.
@@good03boy those shows didnt start until the 1976-1977 season
@@damianlatimer5753 No. Those shows debuted in early (January-February) 1976. Not in the 1976-77 season.

When television mattered. When networks really cared for their audience. Those were the days!!!
Networks actually cared? When did this horrible event occur?

Best voice ever
The computer generated graphics are more advanced and cooler than I remember, but this is the first time I've seen them since 1975. Amazing.
These shows look great. ABC is going to have a great year!

Looks like the original film slipped it's sprockets.
+Geoff Chisholm It looks like it's going to melt the film while it's stayed frozen. They should've used the "Please Stand By" slide with the announcer saying "We are experiencing technical difficulties, please stand by!"
Maybe some kind of a tape problem 🎞🔇. A random person maybe accidentally making the tape 🎞 to stop ❌, or REWINDING IT🔙. Next time, be more careful. 😐❗
00:55 1986.
