Melbourne, Australia TV schedule for Thursday 21 June 1979.
Three commercial stations, one non-commercial station (ABV-2).
Lots of good shows on the schedules. Didn't realise until I started doing these threads that American soaps were being shown on Australian TV in the 1970s. No surprise then that the soap opera parody "Soap" was also shown.
Unfortunately some of the shows, even in 1979, did not have their tapes kept. Don Lane's series for example is heavily missing from the archives.
