This was the series that aired in Detroit on PBS before the NBC picked it up in the 80s; I LOVED watching this back-to-back with Monty Python.

It's odd to think that that baby in the movie camera commercial would be as old as me, depending on when the commercial was filmed. I was two months old when this was taped.

I think Mr. Ramis was in the first episode or two of the second season, the one where his Moe Green character was kidnapped by Leutonians - and Edith Prickley (Andrea Martin) succeeded him as station manager.

And one for Palmolive, by the same company. People in North America seem to have forgotten Palmolive soap, overshadowed as it became by their dishwashing liquid, though the soap preceded it.

I'm not too sure, but the V/O on the Dynamo ad sounds like it could have been NBC staff announcer Jerry Damon who died in 1979. Given that the SCTV series was about a low-budget TV station - and its own budgets, in their actual production, were just as low if even lower at the outset - it's a wonder this was picked up by NBC Chicago flagship WMAQ and not, say, WSNS. ;-) However, in New York WOR Channel 9 - which may have been a model for SCTV in terms of its own operation which were likewise "low budget" - did air SCTV, from 1977 to 1979, Saturdays at 11 P.M. And yes, for you New Yorkers out there, 'Cousin Brucie' was more than capable of "breaking out" of his usual "EEEEEE!" shtick - and seemed to be angling at that point for the then-lucrative V/O market on a par with his onetime colleague from WABC Musicradio 77 days, Dan Ingram. (Mr. Morrow was also, in that period, doing entertainment reports for WNBC Channel 4's "NewsCenter4.")

I think a lot of NBC stations aired this right after Saturday Night Live. The NBC station in Milwaukee, WTMJ, aired SCTV on Saturdays at midnight during those years.

@@wmbrown6 Which is why my friend Bob vehemently denies Harold Ramis played the station manager in the first season, since he watched SCTV from the "first season" -- in New York. I was in Chicago at the time and saw these WMAQ airings. But I don't think WOR served in any way as a model for SCTV. However, Toronto's CITY-TV, channel 79, did. That's what they were making fun of as channel 109. CITY ran with just enough power to be considered broadcast and force cable carriage. The call letters were just serendipity with *Second* City.

@@goodmaro - If the Second City had a New York branch and those in that troupe started a TV show about a TV station, no doubt WOR-TV would have been the model.

That's what was noted in the description - Lou Gehrig wore #4, thus John Candy as Ruth was wearing Gehrig's number! Wonder if SCTV was making their own little commentary about all the numerous factual inaccuracies in "biopics"?
