Description: In 1969, the theme for ABC was "Meet Us In September". During the summer of 1969, ABC aired a promo featuring shows like "The New People", "Room 222", "The Survivors", "Love, American Style", "Johnny Cash", "Bewitched", and the then-new "Movie of the Week". |

| zenarcade64 ::: Favorites 2008-01-02 00:18:33 Yes, there is a certain "sixties sensibility"...you either see the greatness of sixties culture or you don't. Most don't...but look what most people like nowadays. __________________________________________________ | |

| carlynutt ::: Favorites 2007-12-15 21:33:05 We had only three major networks then yet TV was much better than it is now. It was so exciting to see these fall promos during the summer.I think they started running them in July each year. And remember when all the networks new seasons started the same week in September? Now it is so staggerd. Some even start before Labor Day, and some not until mid October. As a kid, I actually looked forward to Septembers because of the new TV season even though it also meant going back to school. __________________________________________________ | |

| DINKERS39 ::: Favorites 2007-11-24 17:54:01 Born in 1960; In the late 60's life still seemed to have hope. Back then TV had me deceived into believing that people and the world are much better and much more noble than they really are. Was I in for a long series of rude awakenings. Which still happen daily. __________________________________________________ | |
| jupitr2 ::: Favorites 2007-11-24 13:11:43 Similar to 'Lost', 'The New People' was about 40 college students who, on their way home from a cultural exchange trip to SE Asia, crashed on a deserted island. The island was previously used by the Atomic Energy Commission as a test site, and so was complete with buildings, cars and supplies. The only surviving adult, died at the end of the pilot episode, leaving the "new people" alone to create their own world, sans authority figures. Written by Rod Serling of 'The Twilight Zone' fame. __________________________________________________ | |
| tubeie07 ::: Favorites 2007-11-18 09:27:01 At the 40-52 second mark the music is Bacharach's 'Nikki' (slightly sped-up) from his 1971 self titled album: in case anyone is searching for that piece of music... __________________________________________________ | |
| zekepig ::: Favorites 2007-11-13 23:08:40 Wasn't there a popular song "See You in September" released a couple of years earlier? If so, couldn't ABC have used that as its fall season theme? It would have made a great ratings booster. __________________________________________________ | |
| murielsartre ::: Favorites 2007-11-12 00:50:59 I love watching this old stuff, although it's sort of strange to look at from the standpoint of time passing and seeing what's changed in society and what hasn't. It's not as weird as watching Roundhay Garden Scene or Dickson's films, though. Those little clips are just plain eerie. __________________________________________________ | |
| shyphyre ::: Favorites 2007-11-07 10:02:30 These spots really do bring up memories. I am a 1964 arrival, who is barely old enough to remember what was on the tube in the late 60's I remember that both Room 222 and the Brady Bunch premiered in the 69/70 season on ABC. Also the Johnny Cash show was very popular. I recall him doing promos a year later when the Partride Family first aired. __________________________________________________ | |
