I miss all of those less-known movies you used to see late at night (although these days I’m seldom up late anyway). Seems as though all the stations started running those horrible “infomercials” instead.
That was what really KILLED local late-night television... the advent of infomercials. It ruined everything, virtually overnight. Infomercials weren’t even allowed up until the late-80s. Sadly, I say since I’m a huge Reagan supporter, I believe it was his FCC that got rid of the prohibition.
