With a new TV season right around the corner, I thought it would be fun to look back at some fall TV promos from ABC, CBS, Fox and NBC (which you then could read about in TV Guide's annual Fall Preview issue). So let's begin with the 1960s and '70s:
CBS's 1961 Fall Season Preview with hosts Andy Griffith, Garry Moore, Sebastian Cabot, Bob Cummings, Rod Serling, Raymond Burr and Ed Sullivan.
Edie Adams and Jerry Lewis appear in this preview of "The New ABC's" 1963-64 season featuring its new round logo.
Bewitched stars Elizabeth Montgomery and Dick York appear in this promo for ABC's 1965-66 season.

Elizabeth Montgomery (Bewitched), Judy Carne (Love on a Rooftop) and Marlo Thomas (That Girl) appear in this "Ladies' Night" promo for ABC's 1966-67 Thursday night line-up.
Garry Moore hosts this preview of CBS's 1966-67 season (the first clip's quality is better, but the second one is the complete show).
Danny Thomas stars in "Remember Next Year?: A Lighthearted Look at NBC's Coming Season", which takes place in 1987 when a magazine writer from the moon wants to know what television was like in 1967.
Here is a 1968 promo for CBS's Mayberry R.F.D., a spin-off of The Andy Griffith Show that ran for three seasons.
