for his US ventures, there was a different theme for an unsold pilot for a game show called match mates. I just wished he had some shows outside of game shows here in the states. he could’ve had some sitcoms for NBC and CBS, maybe partner up with some toon studios for a few saturday morning shows.
He REALLY was the 'Walt Disney' of TV. I, for one would pay top dollar to get into 'Grundyland'! Mrs Mangle's Garden fork of Doom - a terrifying rollercoaster with church organ music at the end rather than being sprayed with water, Henry Kelly's 'You're playing Ketchup' (could be the eatery) [toilets could be four cubicles so you're always in the four-zone]. BOUNCER - a ride where kids can jump on a bouncing castle and land in Henry's pool, only to be bounced back out by a spinning hexaganol prism. Any injuries, there are trained Young Doctors onsite. In the Covid climate, PPE is always provided and used by Mrs. Ferguson. Always on hand to snap on a glove and help. And there's a bloke out back called Pearson. Has a van full of mantle pieces he no longer wants - they're free if you want them.
0:30 - Just a bit nitpicky, but why is it spelled "Color" instead of "Colour"? I thought Australia spelled it with a "U" like most English-speaking countries other than the US...
the Ten ending at 06:47 sends shivers down my spine with nostalgia, Channel Ten at its best.

Brilliant! I designed and had this logo animated way way back when working with my client Pearson TV / FremantleMedia.

Probably a typo on their behalf. We get quite confused with the spelling
When Australia switched over to colour television in 1975, the three commercial networks (7, 9, and 0-10) all used the American spelling.
