Commercial breaks taken from a Christmas Eve 1985 "8
O'Clock Movie" presentation of "Holiday Inn" on what was
then-independent station KBVO in Austin, Texas.
At the time, KBVO was owned by Austin Television Company,
primarily controlled by two (legendary) Texas station
owners, Darrold Cannan, Jr., owner of KAMR-TV in
Amarillo, and Mike McKinnon, who owned KBMT-TV in
Beaumont and KIII-TV in Corpus Christi at the time. Less
than a year after this was recorded, KBVO joined the Fox
network as a charter affiliate.
A few years later, McKinnon would sell his stake to the
station's (late) General Manager, Steve Beard. Cannan and
Beard sold the station in late 1994 to Granite
Broadcasting Company, and the following year, KBVO-TV
swapped affiliations with longtime CBS affiliate KTBC
(channel 7) whose ownership at the time had an alliance
with Fox. KBVO then changed their call letters to the
current-day KEYE-TV. The station was later sold directly
to the CBS network in 2000 and spent time as one of two
O&Os in Austin (ironically enough, KTBC would be sold to
Fox in 1997 and is currently the market's only O&O, as
well as Fox's smallest full-service station, but not
their smallest market). Currently, Sinclair Broadcast
Group owns channel 42.
The station was using "Hello News" from Gari
Communications for its imaging music, along with graphics
from the CASCOM library many stations took advantage of
in the pre-CGI era. Apparently, their use of Hello News
wasn't actually licensed, and they were forced to drop it
a couple of years later once Gari got word and issued a
C&D to the station. GM Steve Beard was allegedly known
for being a creative type, but also, if he liked
something, a "do it and ask questions later" type. KBVO
had a full-time staff announcer, Ken Cinco, who was the
voice of most of their promos.
The original KBVO is unrelated to the current-day
MyNetworkTV affiliate KBVO operated by Nexstar Media
Group and a sister station to KXAN.
