October 10, 1978 Commercial Breaks – WJZ (ABC, Baltimore)

Commercial breaks taken from an episode of Starsky & Hutch on ABC affiliate (now CBS O&O) WJZ in Baltimore.

WJZ was long one of ABC's strongest local affiliates, but in the midst of the 1994 nationwide network realignment, ABC struck an agreement with Scripps to affiliate most of its stations with the network–WMAR (channel 2) in Baltimore included–in January 1995. This forced WJZ owner Westinghouse/Group W to forge its own corporate deal with CBS, resulting in WJZ moving to that network along with sister stations in Boston (WBZ) and Philadelphia (KYW.) The next year, Westinghouse bought CBS, making WJZ an owned-and-operated station.
