You'll find nineteen more ads today from the September 13-19, 1997 issue of TV Guide Magazine and from September 13, 16, 17 and 19, 1997 issues of The Blade. There are three additions to the ABC gallery starting with a full-page color TV Guide ad for The Wonderful World of Disney premiere (The Magic Hour is Coming.), followed by another full-page color TV Guide ad for Dharma and Greg (Marriage this fast usually involves a shotgun.). There's also a Thursday, 9/18/97 full-page TV Guide ad for the series premiere of Cracker starring Robert Pastorelli (Disturbing. Haunting. Twisted. Enough about him.). There are two additions (both TV Guide ads) to the CBS gallery starting with a Sunday, 9/14/97 full-page ad and full-page close-up description for The 49th Annual Emmy Awards.

There's one addition to the PBS gallery, a Monday, 9/15/97 TV Guide ad for Full Circle with Michael Palin.

There's one addition to the Buckeye CableSystem gallery, a Friday, 9/19/97 Blade Peach Section ad for Walker, Texas Ranger on USA. There are five additions to the Vintage Cable Ads gallery, three of them Blade Sports Section ads for the new Fox Sports Detroit network. This ads were designed to get viewers to call their cable company to get them to carry FSD, but Buckeye wouldn't come to terms with them to carry it until June of 1998. There's a Saturday, 9/13/97 ad (Your Red Wings are moving.), a Tuesday, 9/16/97 ad (Your home teams are moving.), and a Wednesday, 9/17/97 full-page ad (Double Premiere!

Today's last ad is an addition to the Other Vintage ads gallery, a color TV Guide ad for Pop-Secret (Great moments in TV history... Recliner... Remote... Real Butter, in Pop-Secret premium microwave popcorn). More September 1997 ads, from the September 20-26, 1997 issue of TV Guide Magazine and from the online archives of The Toledo Blade, are on the way...
