CBS Network - “Guyana Tragedy: The Story of Jim Jones“ (Complete Broadcast - 2 Parts, 4/1980) 📺
Here’s the complete broadcast of both parts of the TV-movie “Guyana Tragedy: The Story of Jim Jones“ (starring Powers Boothe as the Peoples Temple cult leader) as aired on the CBS Network over KTVH Channel 12 in Wichita-Hutchinson, KS (in Chicago, this was broadcast on WBBM Channel 2).
[Modification Disclosure: The first 7 minutes or so of the broadcast of Part 1 was missing from our recording of the 1980 premiere airing, so we substituted in the missing time from a recording in our archives of the (re)broadcast of the movie on KNXT-TV (now KCBS-TV) that aired 5/27/81. There were no commercial breaks during this time, though I can’t guarantee that there weren’t any changes made to the movie itself in the rebroadcast during the time in question. The rebroadcast from 1981 was cut down to a one-night, 3 hour presentation, as opposed to the original which was a 2-night, 4 hour presentation - so a lot of changes/deletions did occur.]
