@Gweedo:.About the time these strips were being drawn, the CBC was getting ready to go to color broadcasts. They checked their color equipment by broadcasting in color after mindinght. What they broadcast was soft porn!
GweedoCBC only slightly. However, I remember the Vancouver cable station (which also originated its own programming), carried the Miss Nude Northwest pageant with out blackouts, gnat swarms, building blocks, or any other censorship devices. I don’t know whether it was intentional or not, but it was such a satire on regular beauty pageants, I can’t watch one of the latter without breaking up laughing.
OK Michael, we will see! Just like in Back to the Future:Marty: Drinking and smoking? You might regret it. Lorraine: Don’t be such a square Marty. Everybody’s doing it.Marty: Oh so? Well if everyone was jumping off the bridge does that mean you have to?Lorraine: Man, you sound like my mother. When I have kids I am going to let them do whatever they want.Marty: I would like to see that in writing.

In 1992, Bruce Springsteen did a song called “57 Channels and Nothin’ On”. Today he could rewrite it as “500 Channels and Nothin’ On”.
