Last album I listened to was The Offspring's Americana. Best 90s album, IMO.

It all began with the August 1-7, 1987 issue of TV Guide with Eileen Davidson, Eric Braeden and Melody Thomas Scott of the hit daytime drama The Young and the Restless on the front cover. Fast forward 18 years, thanks to the magic of the internet, I began buying them at a TV guide nostalgia site where I first bought a defunct Chicago Daily News TV guide from the week of September 22-29, 1973 with Rock Hudson on the cover. I also bought a July 22-29, 1972 issue some years later.

My collection contains debuts, finales, Chicago movie umbrellas like the 3:30/3 O'Clock Movie, Monstrous Movie, WGN Presents and Movie 5, elections and more. Since running my own forum for the past 4 years, I post Chicago TV schedules from 1972 to 1992 to show everyone how great television was from way back when because all Chicago lineups are different from other TV lineups depending on where they live. For example, here's a sched from December 21-22, 1974

WMAQ channel 5 TV schedule for Saturday, December 21, 1974

Morning
-----------------------------------------------
7a - Addams Family
7:30a - Wheelie and the Chopper Bunch
8a - Emergency +4
8:30a - Run, Joe, Run
9a - Land of the Lost
9:30a - Sigmund and the Sea Monsters
10a - Pink Panther Show
10:30a - Star Trek
11a - The Jetsons
11:30a - Go

Afternoon
-----------------------------------------------
Noon - This Week in the NFL (1 hour)
1p - Animal World
1:30p - Impacto
2p - City Desk
2:30p - Super Bowls
3p - NBC Sports NFL Football: Miami Dolphins v. Oakland Raiders in the AFC Divisional playoff game from the Oakland-Alameda County Coliseum (3 hours)

Evening
-----------------------------------------------
6p - New Country (1 hour)
7p - Emergency! (1 hour)
8p - NBC Saturday Night at the Movies: Geronimo (2 hours)
10p - NewsFive at 10 with John Bachman
10:30p - NBC Sports College Basketball: Notre Dame Fighting Irish v. UCLA Bruins at the Edwin W. Pauley Pavilion (2 hours)
12:30a - Tilmon Tempo (1 hour)

Early Sunday, December 22, 1974
-----------------------------------------------
1:30a - Movie 5: The Tramplers

Full boxscore - AFC Divisional: https://www.pro-football-reference.com/ ... 210rai.htm
UCLA Bruins def. Notre Dame with the final score of 85-72 in the 14th Notre Dame-UCLA rivalry game.

This sched comes from the Chicago Sun-Times TV Prevue TV guide where Saturday morning programming were a huge staple back in the day. But sadly as of this writing, the Saturday morning genre being replaced by weekend newscasts and E/I programming.
