From 1984: the annual Fall Kid-Vid plug from CBS, as seen in multiple US comics.
This was clearly a year where video games (and Role Playing games) held sway with SATURDAY SUPERCADE, POLE POSITION and DUNGEONS AND DRAGONS.
Younger kids were catered for by the Emmy-grabbing MUPPET BABIES and THE GET ALONG GANG (Conform. Conform. Conform).
PRYOR'S PLACE, starring Richard Pryor, never crossed the Atlantic. Surely a surprising choice for a Saturday morning TV star, coming only four years after the potty-mouthed multi-award winning comedian and actor had set himself alight whilst freebasing cocaine.
