Re: "Tom Terrific", you kinda can predict by now what I'm about to say:
Began being shown in Sydney, Australia on Monday 16 February 1959, and was aired five times a week at 6:25PM on TCN-9, preceded by a shortened version of "The Mickey Mouse Club". On Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays it was followed by "Huckleberry Hound", while on Tuesdays and Thursdays it was followed by "The Little Rascals". TCN also aired a local kids show called "Desmond and the Channel 9-Pins" at 5:30PM during the week, which I believe consisted of a mix of live local segments and some imported American content (what this content was, I don't know).
In Melbourne it aired weekly on Wednesdays, aired on HSV-7 as part of "Cartoon Carnival", starting 22 April 1959.
I don't know when it was shown in other Australian cities. In Wollongong, it was being shown by December 1964, aired 5 times a week at 5:55PM on WIN-4. It was preceded by "The Adventures of Robin Hood" and followed by news.
