Overmyer Network
Encyclopedia
The Overmyer Network was a short-lived television network
. It was intended to be a fourth national network
in the United States, competing with the Big Three television networks
. The network was founded by self-made millionaire Daniel H. Overmyer, who built five UHF
stations from 1965-67 (including Toledo's WDHO-TV (now WNWO-TV
), which signed on the air on May 3, 1966). A social conservative ("I'm against smut," he declared), Overmyer began to produce his own programs, and decided to create a nationwide hookup, enticing existing stations with a 50-50 profit split with potential affiliates (something that the established network's affiliates had been trying to get from ABC
, CBS
and NBC
for years). The ON was scheduled to debut in the fall of 1967 with anywhere from 75 to 125 affiliates with an 8 hour broadcasting day.
, would provide each station with news. Cultural and sports programming, including the games of the Continental Football League
, were also planned. By July 1966, 35 stations had agreed to affiliate with the new network.
Before the network even went on the air, Overmyer was forced to sell a majority share to investors, although he remained the largest shareholder. Rechristened The United Network, which used a cartoon speaking balloon with an upper-case U as the network's logo, the net hit the air on May 1, 1967 with The Las Vegas Show
on 106 stations. Hosted by Bill Dana from the Hotel Hacienda
in Las Vegas
, the two-hour late-night show featured regulars Ann Elder
, Pete Barbutti
, Danny Meahan, Joanne Worley, Cully Richards and Jack Sheldon
.
The network itself, except for a few independent stations in the larger markets, was mostly made up of CBS
stations who aired The Las Vegas Show at 11:30 local time, tape delayed from the 11:00 start seen on United-only east coast stations. The network called WPIX
in New York City
and KHJ-TV
in Los Angeles
their flagship stations, even though neither were owned by Overmyer/United. Additionally, the WPIX broadcast was often delayed until the weekend due to their commitment to New York Yankees
baseball. The network also lacked clearance in some large cities, including San Francisco (which was waiting for KEMO to be approved by the FCC) and Cleveland.
, which was the main carrier for television network transmissions at the time, proved to be too expensive. Both show and network disappeared after the June 1 (some sources say June 3 or June 5) broadcast.
A notice was sent to the network's 107 affiliate stations the first week of June. The notice stated:
At the time of the company's bankruptcy declaration, the United Network had accrued a nearly $700,000 debt.
Additional programming announced but never aired included Tales from the Great Book, an animated Bible series, plus regional coverage of the Continental Football League
.
No new national commercial networks would be created until October 9, 1986, when Fox
began transmissions and Channel America
began putting together its slate of low-power television (LPTV) stations the following year
