I remember, sometime in the spring of 1957, about 6 months or so before 
WHDH-TV went on the air, they were advertising something on channel 4 as 
"New England's only local color show."  It was a filmed syndicated show, 
and unfortunately, I can't remember what it was.  I don't think I 
actually ever watched it.
