Channel 5 Movie for a Saturday Evening & Channel 5 Movie for a Sunday Evening openings and bumpers when KTLA was airing the Time Tunnel compilation movies on two (I think consecutive) weekends as ‘A Time Travelers Weekend’ in 1981 or 82.

KTLA had wonderful promotional spots in the 1980s that lent a genuine thrill to whatever film or program they were presenting. Wish I knew the name of the announcer, I suspect the animated graphics were generic, available to any station(?), but that guy’s voice really provided the magic.
The 4 compilation movies (below) consist of 2 or 3 episodes stitched together and, when the episodes worked, the mashup was quite nice. Each telefilm, to a varying degree of length, featured the first episode setup, ending just before Tony & Doug tumble on to the Titanic:
Aliens from Another Planet: #24 Chase Through Time & #18 Visitors from Beyond the Stars
Kill or Be Killed: #4 The Day the Sky Fell In & #17 Kill Two by Two
Old Legends Never Die: #27 Merlin the Magician & #16 The Revenge of Robin Hood
Raiders from Outer Space: #28 The Kidnappers & #2 One Way to the Moon
Revenge of the Gods: #7 Revenge of the Gods & #20 The Walls of Jericho
