“Sunday Today” 1987 – 1992 Open


In 1987 the Today Show expanded to six days a week: Sunday through Friday. To differentiate the Sunday edition from the weekday edition, a synthesized theme was used in conjunction with the regular open from The Mission. While it played, notable video from the previous week was shown. The theme, which has that unmistakable 80′s sound, was also used as a close. The show was anchored from Washington, DC by Garrick Utley and Maria Shriver and the weather was done by someone who Today audiences would get to know quite well over the years: Al Roker. The program shared a studio with Meet the Press. In 1992 Today expanded to 7 days a week and the magazine-style format that Sunday Today used was dropped.
