Memories of Bob Brandy
Back in the 1960s, we all loved singing cowboys. In the grand tradition of Roy Rogers and Gene Autry, our local singing cowboy had legions of fans. Bob Brandy (shortened from Brandenburg) was one of WTVC Channel 9's first hires. When the station was preparing for its first broadcast from Signal Mountain, the owners knew they would be competing with the already-established WDEF Channel 12 (CBS) and WRGP Channel 3 (NBC). It was February 1958, and the Channel 9 area license had been transferred from Rome, Georgia to Chattanooga. The owners knew Chattanooga would provide more viewers (and thus, more ad dollars) than Rome. WTVC was affiliating with the third-place ABC network, so this new station would need someone to get the city's attention.
Enter Bob Brandy. He had started a kids show in Columbus, Georgia a year earlier, and had developed a strong following. Along with his wife Ingrid, his horse Rebel, and a steady diet of cartoons, Bob welcomed scout troops, school groups and Sunday School classes.
Sponsors furnished prizes to give away, and Bob provided the fun and games. In the early days of live TV, Bob Brandy faced the camera for an hour each afternoon as the kids got home from school.
Bob's show soon found an eager audience. The other channels had also offered kids shows (Channel 12's "Mr. Chickaroonie" and Channel 3's "Alex and Elmer" are well-remembered), but they had faded by the early 1960s.
Sponsors like Chattanooga Bakery (Moon Pie) and McKee Bakery (Little Debbie snacks) quickly saw the benefits of Bob giving away their goodies to kids ...
