i grew up in Detroit, and in those days of three local stations, WJBK TV2, WWJ channel 4 (long before WDIV), and WXYZ channel 7, there was CKLW, channel 9 from Windsor. Bill Kennedy among all the personalities of the area was most prominent. My mother and grandmother often ruled out soap operas if Bill had a good movie on. He was the original 4-1-1 for information. If you needed to know something or someone, Kennedy knew it or who it was and what they did. I am delighted to have been able to find him here, and to read commentary of those who were enlightened and informed and entertained by Bill Kennedy. in my mind's eye if can see him waving his arms and hands, as he gave way for "a spot", i.e., commercials. yes, i'm an old-school gentleman who recalls with fondness life in the motor city with Sonny Eliot, Mr. Belvedere, Rita Bell, Mary Morgan's Million-Dollar Movies, Ray Lane, Dave Bing and the Pistons at Cobo Hall, and without a doubt, Bill Kennedy at the Movies.
