Robin Maraj do a weather forecast based on physically drawn the weather maps, and then they introduced satellite pictures for Panorama.
Weekends used to have Evening News instead of Panorama, sometimes hosted by Franchesca Hawkings who was a hotty at the time.
Panorama was anchored by Salisha Ali, who was in a wheelchair after she lost her legs in a train accident.

There was music video which showed a lot of war footage, people starving, animals suffering, etc.

The chorus lyrics used to go like:

To the <something> rescue them,
Man over board,
To the <something> rescue them,
Good lord.

Pantos · Postby **Pantos** » December 24th, 2012, 12:33 pm

I think The Wind in the Willows was first seen on the Disney Channel.
I forgot to mention above:
Street Hawk
Adventures of the Harlem Globetrotters (Mooga Mooga, prrrrrttt, ch, woooo wooooo!! Now dig this..)
Animated Tales from Hans Chistian Andersen
SideKicks with Ernie doing Karate
The Love Boat
Night Court
Different Strokes
Too Close for Comfort
Crown Court, like small claims court, but everybody had on wigs. My granny used to love this.
Fantasy Island
Alf
Super Nights with Hansley Ajodah and Deborah Mailard (Who is now Philomena)
Cross Country - this was a local production and was REALLY good back then
There used to be a "Meditation" segment at sign on and the music was a steel band playing Amazing Grace.
Mastanah Bahar
Indian Variety on a Sunday
Community Dateline from 11 to 12 every weekday
Scouting for Talent (Holly used to give away AML Fans and Crix)
It was mentioned above, but should be mentioned again: 12 and Under and also Teen Talent
There was also a soca music Video that went along the lines of "Look ah Ninja Coming!"
There was a TTT, channels 2 and 13, and later they had channels 9 and 14.
EVERYBODY used to get co-channel interference from some other TV station in Venezuela that was broadcasting really strongly
And I never would watch, but the TV was on anyway for:
Falcon Crest
Knots Landing
Dallas
Dynasty
The Young and the Restless
Calabash Alley
Play Your Cards Right (remember points make??? Prizes)

Lots of good advertisements also
Black and White with the girl swimming and the man maccoing her through the louvres
Cannings Lollies where the singer sounded like Spandeau Balet
The old Green Sands ad (If you want my body, and you think I'm sexy, come on baby let me know[GREEN SANDS])

Wow, Alias the Jester.. Damn!!! Gotta love shows from the UK.

I'll put more as I remember them

EDIT.. Just remembered another Evo Stick 528 Adhesive commercial where they hang a man upside down in a rubber boots that was stuck to a piece of wood
Lots of ads were just items written on paper and held in front the camera. Sometimes it was done live right before the news and the person holding the cards would move them before the announcer finish reading the ads.

Other shows:
Are you Being Served
Yes Mr Prime Minister
BJ and the Bear
Flipper
Mork and Mindy
National Lotteries draw with all the balls in the basket on a Saturday after news.
There used to be a Bingo draw after Panorama too.
There was a time where for many weeks there was no Sessame Street, and cartoons and Fraggle Rock replaced it, both morning and afternoon.
Heart to Heart.
Hearts Afire.

hoss, i used to pic up somebody's mario. later when cable came, i used to pick up stations up till 14. i used to get cnn, scifi, usa (UP all nite, with gilbert godfrey), vh1, tbn. if i not pickin up good, i used to move the wire around, and loop it and tie it alllll kinda how till i get the best reception. for some reason, right after rain fell, the clearest reception was gotten just like a broadcasted station.
but, we could have only picked up that on the clack clack clack tv.

wagonrunner · Postby **wagonrunner** » December 24th, 2012, 10:11 pm

to get mario you had ot be right next to the person's room.
everything else yup. :lol:

years ago used to call a neighbour in block 2, to tell him to change the station on his dish, because he watching rubbish and to find something better.

Maxxx · Postby **Maxxx** » December 25th, 2012, 1:50 am

Not technically a music video but relevant given the season.....I could still remember seeing footage of Fort George and the Northern Range etc as this song played......think back to when there was only channels 2 & 13, and 9 & 14.....this got played when TTT was signing on during Christmas holidays....then right after, Sesame Street would start.
