The original Good Morning, America

We're taking a few days off for the holidays, but we'll be back with brand new editions of TV Confidential in the new year. In the meantime, please enjoy this Blast from the Past clip from January 2015 in which Tony, Donna, and Ed look back at the premiere of A.M. America, the precursor to Good Morning, America, on Jan. 6, 1975. An offshoot of Ralph Story's A.M., a local program produced by KABC-TV in Los Angeles, A.M. America never found an audience on a national level and was canceled ten months later.
