Do you know the death date for these specials?


I had always assumed "ABC Afterschool Specials (1972)" were the first casualty of the first U.S. war with Iraq. Now I could be wrong. It may have been that the closest ABC station to me, NewsChannel 5 of Cleveland, was tired of postponing "Oprah Winfrey" on a monthly basis. If anything, ABC should have told us the date of death for these specials in May 2003, during ABC's 50th anniversary. If you have assurance that "ABC Afterschool Specials (1972)" died in January 1991, let us know. If you're not sure, you can always write to: ABC Viewer Services, 77 West 66th Street, New York, N.Y.

ABC ran afterschool specials well into the late-1990's. Jessica Alba was in one from '96, known as "Too Soon for Jeff."
