Interactive TV Guides pre-1995: How interactive were they?
Posted: Sat Feb 20, 2021 10:45 pm
Hi all,
I am researching Interactive TV Guides, specifically any available before 1995.
Just wondering if anyone has any recollection or even visual examples of interactive TV guides from this era or earlier. In particular, were any of them customizable like today's online TV guides. ie. Could you enter your ZIP code or filter them by category etc?
Did Prevue offer any of these features at any point, even primitive filtering such as broadcast a specific schedule intro specific cities?
Any insights would be so great!
Cheers,
Glen
