You probably came here because of the KCTU dancers - a microcosmic phenomenon created during a summer television special in Wichita, KS in 2014 by an 18 year old (yours truly). The dancers were part of "The Low Budget Late Show," a half-hour program that actually aired on Sunday afternoons. The budget for the show was $20. (It brought in $200 in revenue but I never saw the 10%. Oh well.)
Anyway, there are many other low-budget television goodies here. All made in a building that has now returned to it's original intent as a carpet store.

Inside the KCTU Control Room
มุมมอง 9424 ปีที่แล้ว
Here's the old control room during a production of "Your Hour" in 2014 when KCTU-TV 43 was located at 2100 E. Douglas in Wichita, KS. This is where The Low-Budget Late Show (KCTU Dancers), Good Morning Wichita, Your Hour, Mouthy Broads, The River City Forum and all the other live or pre-recorded shows were made. Needless to say, I spent countless hours in here. While the equipment wasn't up-to-...

43 Reports in Your Hour - KCTU Newscast - 2012
มุมมอง 2504 ปีที่แล้ว
I was trying to figure out why I had this DVD, and then I realized it was from the first TV show I directed solo at age 16. Here's newsman RJ Dickens and his bottom-of-the-hour newscast as aired on KCTU-TV in Wichita, Kansas, on July 27, 2012 as part of the daily "Your Hour" magazine program. Keep in mind most of the broadcast equipment was from the 80's and 90' (and some from the 60's and 70's).
Booty Swing - KCTU Dancers
มุมมอง 37K5 ปีที่แล้ว
A few years ago, the generous owners of KCTU-TV in Wichita, KS let some teenagers take over their studio and produce and air basically whatever they wanted. This is the result. Using almost no equipment from the 21st century including TV cameras from 1983 and computers not much newer than that, the Low-Budget Late Show was born during the summer of 2014. Here's "Booty Swing" by Parov Stelar fro...

Tribute to Morgan Faulkner

Remembering my friend Morgan Faulkner, who helped me with many shows, including my first film, "The Glob," to a "A KCTU Halloween," the "Riverfest Report," "A KCTU Christmas," and the "Low-Budget Late Show." Without him, many of my videos would probably never exist. I hope this video will help others remember the caring, funny and personal side of Morgan. If you are struggling with thoughts of ...

Great job, reminds me of better times
Why did the guys wear ties? Ha!
I remember. I was there
White people can’t dance lol
❤I wanna bang Caroline ❤
But no one did the watusi dance 🙁
Flash mob this song.
REALLY THIS SO RACIST NO people of Color DANCING BUT THE SINGERS ARE BLACK I REMEMBER THESE WHITE DAYS where we were not welcomed entitled white people
I’m now officially old and I have to say that life was a lot more fun back then. 🥹
Judging by the camera and clothes and clean,civilized people,this must be 1960’s😊
Innocent America, before it turned... weird. Took its self-celebrated freedom and chose so many of the wrong paths.
Cute
Juventud sana y limpia de aquellos tiempos, nada comparado a lo de hoy 😢
These were all the cool kids back then! *NOT*
😅 did you notice that no one was grabbing their scrotum oh that's right no blacks
I remember this from when I was 3 or 4 years old. I wondered what a Watusi was, {a tribe in africa}.
good vibes, cheers~
cool
Oh, and the guy with the sweater is not from this earth...but, he is here now.
I still think these kids belong to the elite of Hollywood, look how they are following the women out of camera.
Does anyone remember the movie,Troop Beverly Hills? There is a segment in that movie where Shelly Long’s character is teaching her Girl Scout Troop a number of dances from the 1960s. It very funny because when she gets to the Mash Potato she tells the girls,”sorry about showing you this one”. Seems she didn’t like the Mash Potato.
So different from today's teens.
And this is the original song by the Orlons back in the AM days. It ought to have a whole lot more likes than this.
I doubt the "made for romance" part of this dance.
She is gorgeous
I love this song thank you very with all my heart ❤😂
Decent kids
I wonder if any of these dancers are watching this?
The Watusi...the twist...El Dorado.
Dancing it makes me so happy
It's dope
Much more classier then today dances
Wow those dancers are terrific and adorable thanks! Stylish choreography- and they know their moves!
They're all so cute
I love Americana.
They’re not wearing pajamas or ripped clothes, what year is this?
I thought possibly these are today's actors.. But could not be.. They are not obese.
Ounce again.. No performance date Oh no oh no
Nice, but this is dance show dance group doing custom written choreography to the Watusi SONG, not the Watusi dance. Check other videos and see if you can find any two doing the same dance.
❤️ LOVE, LOVE ,LOVE THIS WONDERFUL SONG and DANCE BINGS BACK GREAT MEMORIES OF MY TEENAGE YEARS 🎼🎵🎶😊
❤️❤️❤️!
Great example of whitewashing black music.
Love it!
Come on and take a chance...
instead of fox news, msnbc, abc, cnn, cbs and nbc...try this on for some much better, non hate, subjectivity.
they know how to do the watusi!!!
Where are they now? I wish one would post a comment. Great times, so innocent.
One of the funniest, things I've ever seen, I mean, no one knew where the beat was. They were just all over the place.No Rhythm Whatsoever. I know that they were kids just having fun but I mean, come on. They were dancing, To a classic R&B song of the 60s. Which was a dance. And to my recollection The wautusi People live in Africa.
I live in Australia, I’m 67 yrs America was a much different country then sad to see how different it is today, they are a different teenager today.
Love the third dancer,the thin blondie girl betwen the gacious nerd Kid snd the girl st black dress..is so cutie and really immerse in the rithm and melody.. Wow ! ,is Divine...The total Group Performance , wonderful too !!
