Here's a real rarity - a promo for the very short-lived Norman Lear series "All That Glitters", as aired on WFLD Channel 32. (previous to this we found and presented a complete episode of this obscure show which can be viewed here: youtu.be/AD_6TTFVkQs)
Note: This is to replace an earlier, now broken (unplayable) video posting, preserved as an unlisted video here to save the original comments: youtu.be/at4B2LloM1o
This nightly series, which lasted all of 65 episodes (from April 18th to July 15th 1977), and showed a world where the script was flipped and women ruled the roost while the men were the sex objects. Based on those dates, this was a promo for episode #63 - only two more episodes after this one before it was yanked and not seen since.
Voiceover by Bud Kelly.
This promo aired on local Chicago TV on Wednesday, July 13th 1977 during the 10:00pm to 10:30pm timeframe.
