About me:
Like its longtime competitors CBS Sports and NBC Sports, ABC Sports
was originally just the sports division of a major American network,
ABC. The seeds of its eventual integration with ESPN occurred when
the cable network's majority owner Capital Cities Communications
bought ABC in 1985. Although some ESPN sportscasters such as John
Saunders and Dick Vitale began to also appear on ABC Sports
telecasts, ESPN and ABC Sports continued to operate seperately. After
the The Walt Disney Company bought Capital Cities/ABC in 1996, Disney
started to slowly integrate ESPN and ABC Sports. ESPN personalities
like Chris Berman, Mike Tirico, and Brad Nessler worked on ABC Sports
programs. In 1998, ESPN adopted ABC Sports' Monday Night Football
graphics and music for its Sunday Night Football broadcasts. During
that same year, ESPN signed a five year deal to televise National
Hockey League games, also letting the cable network to essentially
buy time on ABC to air selected NHL games. This was noted in
copyright beds at the conclusion of the telecasts, i.e. "The
Preceding Program has been paid for by ESPN, Inc." ESPN then signed a
similar television rights contract in 2002 so it could produce and
broadcast National Basketball Association games on ABC. Meanwhile,
Disney continued to consolidate the corporate structure of ESPN and
ABC Sports. Steve Bornstein was given the title as president of both
ESPN and ABC Sports in 1996. The sales, marketing, and production
departments of both divisions were eventually merged. It was
announced in 2006 that ABC Sports would be totally integrated into
ESPN, using ESPN graphics, music, and production. The brand
integration does not directly affect whether ESPN (the cable channel)
or ABC carries a particular event, as in most cases this is governed
by contracts with the applicable league or organization.
Does anyone have a copy of the 1983 ABC Saturday Morning Preview Special TV Guide ad featuring Dick Clark surrounded by past and present ABC Saturday Morning cartoon stars?

By far, in terms of animation and graphics, the ABC promos I like best are those
from the
1984-85 season (the fall promo was "We're With You").
The Saturday promos shown in the Photos section, I've noticed, all come from
late in the
season. Early in the season, as the day-of-week graphic emerged at the
beginning, the
upper (yellow) layer of lettering was a hollow outline. Anyone have promos from
that era?
Another thing I've long wondered: For the animated "We're With You" graphic,
which
showed a "construction" of the ABC circle logo, did Harry Marks have a hand in
its design?
To me, it bears all the hallmarks of a Marks graphic; namely, cameras flying
through
lettering and changing angles.
