The Broadcast Log: NBC's Night at the Movies, 1960s

NBC Saturday Night at the Movies

The following is a quick hits list of all 493 movie premieres on NBC during the 1960s as part of its Night at the Movies banner. Yes, four hundred-ninety-three movies. Because this is a general overview, this list isn't nearly as detailed as the specific-nightly posts. If you want to know what was black and white or color or the stars or the network runtime, links are provided to those pages. If you want a complete list of original NBC airdates, this is your kinda page.

There were other movies that aired on NBC: productions like Heidi, imports like David Copperfield, Hallmark Hall of Fame movies, and older titles that aired as their own special (The Wizard of Oz). The one title here that blurs the line is Damn Yankees, an original production that aired under the Saturday movie banner.
