I still have the original TV Movie Guide Ads I cut out as a kid for the 9:00PM Friday Night showing on Channel 7 (ABC) in Los Angeles. I also have a 1986 VHS recording from a 9:00PM Saturday Night showing on Channel 11 (KTTV) in Los Angeles, that refers to the movie as “The Great Houdini’s” during the commercial breaks. <br />BTW: Joe M.
