Deborah Norville was absolutely stunning. Still looks great.
Only 25 here, what a knockout!
I waited to watch this video on April 29, 2024. What a time capsule moment. 📺
"Shut up Bernie!" 😂
Very cool to see. Two people I enjoyed working with someplace else, and by golly, Deborah Norville is even more lovely now than she was 40 years ago.
Deborah Norville was a hottie
WOW! Young Deborah Norville working in Chicago before going off to greater positions. Jerry Taft who became a legendary WLS-7 (ABC) weatherman had his start at WMAQ similar to Cheryl Scott right now who worked at WMAQ before she moved to WLS.
After watching this newscast from 1984 anchored by the then young girl Norville I was struck by many of these vintage news stories are the same today .
Jerry Taft new haircut before going to Channel 7
Also . . . did anyone notice about the "Channel 5 News" theme, how similar it sounded to Jim McAlister's theme for "News 4 New York" on sister station WNBC Channel 4?
Deborah Norville 65 in 2024 and looks just as good. What happened to the pretty people with the articulate manner?
30:52 SCTV is on the air!!!
Jerry Taft would leave Channel 5 in August of that year to join Channel 7.
He would spend the next 34 + yrs there until his retirement in early 2018.
RIP Jerry.
Rip
Dang, Deborah Norville looks like she just graduated high school in this...
She's barely out of highschool. 26. And is still sporting a "Jessica Savitch" look. Norville would be at NBC News in less than 2 years after this broadcast.
You can still hear a touch of her Georgia accent.
That 92 World’s Fair must have been something else!
Thnx.
Being the Mayor of Chicago has to be the world's most thankless job.
being Mayor in ANY U.s city is.
Chiraq keeps voting for the worst of the worst
@@PRHILL9696 Demographics
It's an endless cycle.@@PRHILL9696
@@PRHILL9696 You definitely live in the burbs
Good ol Jerry Taft and Mark Guangreco
The background music on the Crown Vic ad is the theme from SCTV. Must be a royalty free track or something.
The track is Called Freestyle from DeWolfe Music.
@@stephenzamarin3193 - And used from the second season up to the first for "SCTV Network 90." But glad to know.
Too bad chicago no longer has good Radio stations like WCLR 102FM
She was such a babe! Deborah
The eighties ,best music best movies best TV best President.
that's why I wish I had a time machine.
We all do@@mysticakhenaton1701
40 years ago today. Deborah Norville still looks beautiful 2 this day
I do miss the old NBC logo with the N & the peacock. I like how it's used in the word NEWS. Very creative
2:08 Joe Sirola voices the Emery Worldwide commercial.
21:41 Wish I could figure out the voice of the CarX mechanic, because it sure isn’t the guy we see on screen.
Harold Washington had to be a steller mayor compared to Lightfoot.
The one thing that Chevette in the Amoco ad has in common with those formula-1/Indy car racers: Surprisingly good handling. That's why they were popular for Group-4 Rally Racing in Europe.
Deborah Norville now hosts Inside Edition
Only the second future "Today" co-host (after Jane Pauley) to have toiled at WMAQ aforehand. (And Ms. Pauley today is host of CBS' "Sunday Morning." Talk about the fates . . . )
Dick Kay would frequent on occasion Four Farthings Pub on Lincoln, Cleveland, and Dickens
Who'd knew Deborah would nearly 40 years later be-- Well, *you* fill in the blanks.
Dick Kay's real last name was Snodgrass. Kay was his wife's name.
His role on here sounds similar to what Gabe Pressman would do on occasion after his 1980 return to WNBC after eight years at WNEW-TV.
