This intro was the flare shot across the bow of my childhood. We could hear it from anywhere in the house. We knew what it meant. Pepsi cola in the heavy glass bottles. Cracker Jacks, Lemonheads, Charston Chew, and Affy Tapples. We reported to the front room, sat on the area rug in front of the Zenith rabbit ear black and white. Its where I first saw " The Night Stalker" , "Bad Ronald" "Killdozer" " The Girl most likely to..." " A Howling in the Woods" and " One of my wives is missing." Thanks, Barry Diller from ABC for having the idea to make feature films for Television and how movies could be both entertaining and stories well told.

I especially LOVE that 4:30 Movie theme. I hadn’t heard that since I was a young teenager in the 1970s. Most of the time I didn’t care to watch the 90 minute movie but I remember turning to channel 7 (local ABC station in NYC) most weekdays at 4:30pm just to hear that tune. It still sounds great.

When I listen and watch this siniar of the ABC Movie of the Week intro from 1972. It brings it back to the sensation of growing up in another way, while in the seventies dealing with the harsh reality of an reautarded off-the-walled abusive family situations, like I was a alabaster kid in another contemporary setting watching this movie in a more heartwarming seventies styled family and school in my imaginary childhood!

Hearing this is like stepping into a time machine to better days of far away and long ago. Oh the precious memories this intro brings of being in the warmth and safety of family in our little den. We all had our certain places to sit or sprawl out on the couch and rug. So comforting to hear this again!

I was 12 in 1972. The intro to the movie of the week gives me such a warm feeling. It symbolizes family togetherness. When I was at school sometimes we'd talk about what we saw on The Movie of the Week. Back in those days nobody got much more than a few channels on their TV sets..so if there was something good on, chances were everybody saw it. During this time you could pick up a newspaper and find anything you need in the classified column. Jobs places to live you name it. You didnt have to have a password and a username..you didnt have to have an account either..you just picked up the newspaper. This was so much easier..and identity theft wasn't an issue either.

Really special. For the younger folks, before there was ABC Movie of the Week, there was no such thing as a "Made for TV" movie. Every movie shown on network TV was an airing of a theatrical film. This groundbreaking concept also spawned the miniseries, which didn't exist before the made-for-TV concept. I'm with some other commenters here: it was special for the family to gather together and watch a brand new movie every week.

I am 60, and saw all these movie bumpers, and others, on tv, during 1970s and 1980s. The graphic art of them is still cool in 2021. During those two decades, ABC, NBC, and CBS had a movie certain nights, and just before the movie began its starting credits, these bumpers would appear onscreen as an announcement of the movie. Most of the movies had been in theaters, and we eagerly waited 2 or 4 years for them to be on tv, even during the 1980s. Some were movies made for tv. Those movie bumpers bring back cozy memories.
