Yeah, I loved this, not having cable. Then it turned into some awful stand-up comedy showcase somtime in the mid-90s. Did anyone stay up and watch ABC "In Concert" late on Saturday nights (I think) in the early '90s? It's the only way I was seeing my favorite hair bands (Poison, Slaughter, etc.) for free. FOX 5 in the NYC market had a short-lived late night video show hosted by Kelly Ripa and some guy, but I feel like I'm the only person who ever heard of it. I remember they played KMFDM's "Drug Against War" video. Before Letterman, CBS had "Crimetime After Primetime" with a different cheesy syndicated show like "Forever Night" or "Silk Stalkings" after the 11pm news. I think I watched almost every cheesy syndicated show on channels 5,9, and 11 before they became FOX, UPN, and WB/CW due to not having cable.

Silk Stalkings - "It's too hot to sleep"!
Remember the ABC movie of the week (70's?)? I guess it was the kind of stuff done now on Lifetime.
There's was nothing creepier that Night Gallery. I used to sneak up to watch it on a little black and white portable, and it scared the crap outta me.

I can still remember nearly every minute of the Night Gallery episode where the cat turns into a tiger and lion, etc. at the sound of the bell in the cat toy. Damn that show was creepy.

Oh yes, I remember Night Gallery, and of course Alfred Hitchcock Presents.
Yes I do remember this and Silk Stalkings went on to have a life on the USA network.

this thread is bringing back some memories (though I'm not familiar with mot of the nighttime programs you're talking about. Speaking of shows, anyone remember Battle of the Network Stars? God I loved that special..... and of course, Schoolhouse Rock on Saturday mornings.

I loved School House Rock! I know most of the preamble to the Constitution thanks to that show. I have vague memories of Battle of the Network Stars, I remember Circus of the Stars better.

I remember Battle of the Network Stars. I remember being kind of bored by it as a kid. I wasn't much for watching anything even remotely like sports at all.
