@@JJJBRICE - Her story has always to me sounded similar to, but in specifics were way different from, WNEW Channel 5 (New York) announcer Tom Gregory (a.k.a. "Metromedia Man") who, early in his career, frequently appeared on-camera as well as doing off-camera announcing work - but after a vicious mugging late one night/early morning after his shift ended where he was slashed so much in the face he required 200 stitches, his duties at the station would forever after be confined to the latter (off-camera V/O). But as to that R.I.P. list . . . isn't Paul Bachman also among them, or is it my imagination? And I.I.N.M., it was about 7 - 8 years from that incident of Ms. Dee's that this was on.

I was on it in 1971, we were living in Lagrange. Friends of the family finally got tickets but the kids were teenagers, they said no way. I was in first grade so it was perfect. Great times Ray Rayner, Bozo, Family Classics, Garfield Goose, BJ and the Dirty Dragon...
In May 1975 I attended a live broadcast of Bozo's Circus with my classmates from college . One of the classmates was the son of a WGN VP . I remember how the guys in the control room were cheering the youngsters to do well playing the grand prize game !

I was 11 years ago when this aired and in 6th grade. My school let us go home for lunch, so I likely saw this when first broadcast. Ah, memories.
I was on this show in 1963 and got picked to play the Bozo buckets of which I missed the third one. It was surreal to go WGN studios and be there live. Good memories
I used to run home from school at recess so I could watch Bozo! This is awesome! I had no idea Our Lady of Angels was intentionally started (during the newscast at the end). Thank you for sharing this gem! Jimmy Lee in Chicago
I've lived in Chicago my whole life. I was born 2 years after this aired. I remember making it to a Bozo show when I was a kid. My sister almost got to play the grand prize game.
I watched The Bozo Show all the time since I was a kid. Lot of memories.
We would begin seeing Bozo here in Kentucky when our cable TV began carrying WGN in 1981. What was funny even though it was received via a satellite feed the cable company fed WGN to us on cable channel 9. We only had 12 cable channels at the time so we did not have a set top box. The VHF tuner on the TV itself was all we needed channel 2-13 and there was always something on to watch!

Wow. I didnt discover Bozo until 84 when i was in the 2nd grade. We would watch it before school. They would show a few minutes of Transformers which became my favorite cartoon. By the time the grand prize game would end, we would have to leave for school. Great memories. Thanks for posting!
OMG i watched this show on WGN from Louisville KY! I adore it so much to this very day!
This is such a treat. It saddens me to a level that most people would find laughable, that 99% of these classic episodes are forever post. I just wish I could watch them again. I wasn't even born for the first decade, so I've never seen those, and unfortunately probably never will 😢. And that makes me so sad.
I grew up in Indiana...central area. Loved watching Bozo every day during summer breaks.
In NY we had another Bozo, Mr. Bill Britton. When I saw this vintage video it brought backfond childhood memories. Thank you.

Thank you for this. I was a little child when this aired, probably even saw this broadcast because this was around the time I discovered the Bozo’s Circus. Full old episodes from this era are hard to find. Great transfer here. Two-inch Quad? Anyway, TV Powwww was wretched. Got to enjoy it Downstate on Peoria’s 25 too during my afternoon cartoon. Bob Bell as Bozo was a treasure. The whole show gelled here led by Frazier Thomas, and the Grand Prize Game - which my sister and I played at home with Tupperware. Thanks for the Fuzzy Memories. WGN Channel 9 is among the greatest television stations ever.

New York sister station WPIX' equivalent was TV PIXXX. It was all off-camera, either Ralph Lowenstein or Bill Biery guided children on the phone to say "Pix!" whenever such early video games were being played. This was usually in-between cartoons such as "Tom & Jerry" or "Mighty Mouse" or "Heckle & Jeckle."

That was an odd time though since kids were still in school, my guess is that kids would run home from recess or lunch to watch. Afterschool hours made more sense though.
Bless God allowing me to experiencing this in my youth
My mother somehow got me on a waiting list to attend Bozo Circus live when I was 6. By the time I was 11 (and no longer cared about the show), we received tickets or whatever they were in the mail, so I went. Was surprised at how small the circus area was as compared to how large they made it look on TV. I don't remember much from the experience except shaking Cookie's hand and him calling me "My pal." I am 57yrs old, used to watch this every day during summer break from school, but I have absolutely NO MEMORY of that TV POWWW game.
Another great find! Thanks!

We were able to see these in Michigan when cable tv was first brand new and we could get the Chicago Station. The Chicago Station had all the good kids shows back in the 70's and 80's !
I see the episode date, Sept 10, 1979. I think back to a pic I have (somewhere) of my 7th birthday at our home. My mom baked my favorite chocolate cake, put a big 7 in the middle, and there I am with my lil brother, 1st cousins, all smiles. Just 7 days before this episode, a moment captured. Simpler times, no cell phones, no division in the country. I love and appreciate my life, my 51+ years, and all my countless blessings. But I do recall and miss what was. Thank YOU Father GOD, for everything that is, was and will be the life of a single individual here on YOUR planet, passing through. Help me love my fellow man/woman, and forgive, forget all offences, quickly. In Jesus my savior, amen. David in Kentucky
What an amazingly clean copy! Absolute treasure.
❤ Memories.. so simple, yet perfect! .. This one aired one day before my 11th Birthday 🎉

I'm of a completely different generation, but I love Bozo! it's so cool to see this, thank you for preserving history!
When I was a kid and bozo circus came on I was glued to the TV. I got a chance to visit the studio and sit in the audience once. Those cups for the grand prize game were very very very small. I don't know how they made them look so large on TV but they really were tiny. It was a fun experience and I'm happy I had the experience.
My family moved to Chicago from San Antonio tex.around 1961.i was about 13 .TV shows here were great.all we got in San Antonio was westerns ,Texas this and Texas that.garfield goose was the 1st show we saw .a whole new world opened up for us.

Ahh, local programming. That's something which has been lost in our transition from broadcast TV to cable to streaming. Did every major city have a favorite kid's show, a horror host, an independent UHF station with fun and quirky programming because they had time to fill and not much money?

Most of you who've seen the original "Night of the Living Dead" have seen our local host. Remember the TV reporter and station in the movie? That was Bill Cardille of WIIC (now WPXI), who as one of the "hats" he wore in real life was occasionally news reporter. But he's more famous as Chilly Billy, host of "Chiller Theater" from 1963-1984. Chiller's downfall began when NBC demanded that "Saturday Night Live" be aired at it's broadcast time rather than tape delay after Chiller. Then VHS nailed the coffin closed.
Oh boy I watched this in high school after I graduated I was studying all the time and used to watch it on Sunday .
Oh my god I haven't seen him in 30 years Loved watching his show in the morning before school
I was on this show in fall of 1963 and got picked to play the Grand Prize game but I missed the 3rd bucket. We lived in Fox Lake and It must have been live because my dad said he saw me on the show. Those are good memories of going there and the whole experience was surreal just going to WGN studios.
Made my night!!
I remember Bozo in the early-mid 80s on WGN via cable here in TX, Always wanted in on the Grand Prize Game, even sent in a postcard to win. Alas, I never won that Schwinn!!
I was only able to watch these when we visited Grandma in New York each summer.
I watched this...everyday! Went to school with Roy Brown's kids! They were so cool!
Tis brings back good memories growing up in dekalb, illinois
We used to watch this before we went to school in the morning. I remember eating my cereal and watching the grand prize game!!! I can still remember the one little girl that was crying, saying pow pow pow…lol… because I don’t think she got one.
I remember this show in the early 90s/late 80s playing on the family channel. One of my earliest childhood memories of any tv shows.
And so the long saga comes to a satisfying conclusion. Congrats, Fuzzy.
OMG...cryin...THIS brings back soooooo many GOOD memories❤️❤️❤️❤️😁❤️❤️❤️
Wasn't born yet but I do remember growing up, getting ready for school, sitting down and getting breakfast and watching WGN and Bozo early in the morning. I'm from the middle of nowhere texas but, I was definitely in Chicago for that hour of bozo. Lol
I really liked seeing this show again, but the best part of watching this was seeing Merri Dee again!

A friendlier time when people could still be entertained and not scared by clowns.

I love Bozo the clown! It was a great hit in Brazil when it was aired by TVS, the Brazilian broadcasting TV, along with great cartoons. It was a great childhood.
I was there 2 times in 79 (My cousin got sick so I took his place the 2nd time, tickets were hard to get back then and never wasted lol), the arrow landed on me when they were searching for a Girl but I got a small cameo on TV lol Great times and memories.
This is Lord Wellington. My friend David " The Rock " Nelson was on this programme. Not this particular episode, but an earlier episode. He said they were in studio for it. These days he's a very accomplished maker of "Monster Movies" and has been back to WGN often. For the News. He played one such film with Us on there as well for Larry Potash and all the children called " Dinosaur Woman. "
Oh my God, I used to love this show. And I love. The grand prize game. And I loved the grand prize. It was so exciting. And I was watching in my 30s. So much better than the price is right
