Overmyer Network

Anyone remember this?

The Overmyer Network aired for a couple of months in 1967. WBEN -TV in Buffalo carried one of their shows, "The Las Vegas Show."

I have absolutely no memory of the Las Vegas Show, but it ran briefly on Channel 4 in Buffalo as competition to NBC's well established Tonight Show. Needless to say, Johnny Carson had nothing to worry about.

I remember the show and network. CBS and channel 4 tried different shows at 11:30pm until they finally settled on David Letterman and Steven Colbert.
