* ChannelHop: Starting off as a local show on WFIL-TV, it went national on Creator/{{ABC}} in August 1957. After a three-decade run, it went to syndication in September 1987. Dick Clark left ABC because its affiliates kept pre-empting the show in favor of college football and other specials, and the network had cut down the show to 30 minutes for the 1986-87 season. The syndicated run, which went back to a full hour, ended in June 1988. After a hiatus of nearly a year, the show came back on Creator/USANetwork in April 1989; it was cancelled for good that October.

* KeepCirculatingTheTapes: Don't hold your breath for a DVD set (or even reruns). In fact, most of the online video uploads of clips from the program come from the one time it aired in reruns, on Creator/VH1 during the mid 1990s (and even then it pretty much stuck to 1975-1986, with brief forays into older episodes; the earliest was 1964, with a handful from 1967-1969).

It would obviously be a nightmare to straighten up the music rights, especially for a DVD release, where the two possible scenarios would be "chop up the episodes into mix-and-match musical performances and piss off the purists in the process" or "charge a ridiculous amount per episode".
