About this film

OTR Family Night Ten shows programmed to set and forget for about six hours continuous entertainment. The first three hours (say six to nine PM) of sci-fi, adventure, comedy, and music are aimed at the kids and adults who like light programming; the subsequent three hours are given over to more mature fare of horror, wry humor, and mystery. All files have had background noise reduced and volume adjusted. The Benny program was a challenge, originally recorded on separate disks then strung together on tape; Night Beat was plagued with squelches, each one painstakingly removed.
