| Publisher Description: T-Bar-V Ranch went off the air in 1970, but ask any Louisville baby boomer to sing the theme song and you ll instantly hear, Brush your teeth each morning / Get lots of sleep at night / Mind your mom and daddy / Cause they know what is right. Such is the power of homegrown television. This book is a look at Louisville television history over the last 50 years, from T-Bar-V to Tom Wills s retirement. Along the way, you will catch a glimpse of Diane Sawyer (as the WLKY weather girl ) and dozens of images of locally produced musical shows, game shows, talk shows, children s shows, and newscasts not to mention all the lyrics to the T-Bar-V Ranch opening and closing theme song." |
