From Steve N – Mr. Pop – Wasn’t Ed Sullivan resurrected to host a 1990’s special?

Mr. Pop History – A sort of “tales from the crypt” – Sullivan was indeed placed in such a role. Although he was long dead, UPN-TV featured Sullivan “hosting” a prime time special in May of 1998. Through computer technology – his likeness introduced new acts on something called “The New Ed Sullivan Show.”

From Britany L – When did the channel called “CW” debut?

Mr. Pop History – Combining the best of the old UPN and WB networks – “The CW” debuted in 2006. CBS – which was overseeing the conversion, had other names in mind such as “NOW,” “REV” and “JO.” Why CW?

Because the company took a poll and 48% of those between 18 and 34 liked “the sound” of the two-letter combination. Nothing more! CW
