Nice pick for Tampa w/ a rare & memorable sighting of WFTS in their pre-ABC days, not many examples here here on YT. It was also nice to see KIMT finally did in fact, "work harder for us".
Tampa Bay native here. I watched plenty of WFTS-TV back then. WTOG was the clear non-Big 3 leader here at the time, but WFTS-TV held its own, especially when it got the FOX affiliation in '88. The logo shown here is an improvement over what it used before.
Being located in the Dothan AL, market, i remember seeing WMBB channel 13 only twice in my life and that was probably due to E-Skip, or a tropospheric ducting event.
12:03 The Providence market is a bit weird. I mean, Manchester, NH is also near Boston but it doesn't get its own market and only has one actual TV station serving the state!
Brian Hebert Yeah, I know that. WFTS was also Owned by Family Television Stations before being acquired by E.W. Scripps around 1988, when Fox moved over its programming from WTOG.
That was awesome!! Love that old radio jingle style singing from PAMS, et al. It’s fun to see how stations project that they’re much bigger than they really are. I guess I’m spoiled growing up watching NYC TV (with its 7 channels).
@ 15:59 Yup. I still recognize that particular ident from their stint as an American Broadcasting Company affiliate; They're currently under the aegis of the local Catholic Archdiocese under their current callsign WORO-TV/WORO-DT Channel 13. (According to Wikipedia, that one has an interesting backstory spanning from what would've been its botched original inception between 1958 and late 1961, which I'm looking up. #StayTunedIn)

-No one cares if you're first. Also stop saying I'm "back", I never left lol. -PLEASE read the description, what I would usually put here is in there for the most part. Also don't be disappointed if the ID I chose for your area "isn't good enough"...cause too bad :sunglasses:. Edit 10/30/21: Got rid of the "descriptions" for each block of time as I thought they were arbitrary. Hope you guys enjoy!
This video is super great! KEYC is super great! There’s more markets in here then the 90’s version! Although some markets are gone, like: Gainesville, Florida Abilene, Texas and others, this is still great!
You can sure tell by the rankings that this was in the 1980's. Nowadays Grand Rapids, MI (the market serving an area from Hesperia, MI to the Indiana border during the 1980's, Nielsen stupidly moved the boundary up to the Lake/Wexford county line which is well north of Baldwin) is probably in or near the top ten and Detroit is probably well down in the rankings.
I saw a couple of mistakes. For channel 11 in Baltimore, MD, it is WBAL (CBS in the early 80's now NBC since 1/1/1996) not WJZ-13 (ABC now CBS since 1/1/1996). For WDVM (now WUSA since 7/4/1986), it was during the brief "Ours To Share" campaign from 1984 thru to the call letter change in 1986.
i was well aware of the first one (countless comments about it) but the second one is a bit tricky, since it was an approximation in a list of IDs from 1979-1986. i had gotten the idea that in 1984, they were using a CGI logo, so I assumed it was before then.
Speaking of WMTV, In their place to be ident, The logo is shown to be flying as what seems to be crew look in surprise, and in this ident, it's shown to be in the clouds, with your subtitling of: "The ghost of WMTV." WMTV LORE COMFIRMED?! (real)
It is a signoff from 1989 so maybe if I was able to find regular station IDs from WHIZ from the time, it would be more updated, but I wasn't able to. I guess they didn't care to fix the dated signoff

Probably because it's so unusual for an ID it gets your attention. It stands out. IDs are normally all business because they're a legal requirement.
I can’t unhear it without the sudden freeze

3:23 This WTOV-TV ID is actually from 1989, not 1986. The song, by the way, is Twilight World by Swing Out Sister.
9:30 KWKT used the same jingle as its sister station in Shreveport, KMSS. It's on us.
Same as KDNL.

Channel 4 News at 6:00 and 10:00. Apply directly to the forehead.
That Channel 26 ident may have inspired Tim Taylor's "Moar power!" hijnks.
15:17 - Slight mix up there, the ID was for WBAL, not WJZ. WBAL in 1981 was NBC and CBS later in the year when they swapped with WMAR
Also, he put in Minnesota, MN for Market #15, even though it should be Minneapolis
Love the intro. Amazing job!
Yooo It's WETM!
The best station in the tiers!
Thanks for catching this rare sight
That WJAR music sounds so uplifting!
It almost sounds nostalgic to me, like something I heard as a child
FACT: This ident looks incomplete, because of the audio cut from the beginning.
come to my house 10 WFUC
17:01 Oh Hey Look, The area I Live in. WTOG’s ID will probably be used for the 1970’s ID Video.
Brian Hebert Yeah, I know that. WFTS was also Owned by Family Television Stations before being acquired by E.W. Scripps around 1988, when Fox moved over its programming from WTOG.
Fox station calls itself independent.

At 15:06, WKRN was never a CBS affiliate (that went to WTVF 5). They were ALWAYS an ABC station.
