Accessed: July 22, 2013. Film critic Bosley Crowther dismissed suspension of disbelief in his review, "People who picture reporters as dashing young fellows, all named 'Scoop,' whose lives are just rounds of excitement in what such people call the 'newspaper game' will find the ideal of their illusion in the newshawk Alan Ladd plays in Paramount's Chicago Deadline ... But for those other level- headed people whose knowledge of newspaper men—and, indeed, of life in general—is a little more sober and sane, this fancy will surely seem a mish- mosh of two-penny-fiction cliches, recklessly thrown together in an almost unfathomable plot. Flashbacks and narrative descriptions will fascinate them no more than will Mr. Ladd's ridiculous posturing as a brilliant newspaper man-sleuth."Crowther, Bosley.

The series focuses on the production of a news program called Out of Control, which is a show-within-a-show. It is hosted by Dave (Dave Coulier), who is level-headed and tries his best to keep the show from getting "out of control." Dave's fellow crew members are archetypal characters, such as the shrill, plastic-fantastic party-girl Diz Aster (Diz McNally), the clueless reporter Angela "Scoop" Quickly (Jill Wakewood), the caustic newshawk Hern Burford (Marty Schiff), Professor Gravity (who was later re-used in the radio sketch Ask Dr. Science), and Waldo, the bespectacled mad inventor (David Stenstrom). The characters refer to a box-like computer called the HA-HA 3200 as the sketch and joke writer for the show.

From 1979 to 1994, the team of Wendall Anschutz and Anne Peterson – who both served as the main anchors of KCTV's weekday evening newscasts – led the station's newscasts to first place among the Kansas City market's three main local television news outlets of the time period. During the 1980s and early 1990s, KCTV was engaged in very competitive race for first place in news viewership with KMBC and WDAF-TV, frequently trading places with both stations in certain time periods; in total viewership, KCTV battled WDAF for first place during this period. Viewership for the station's newscasts fell to third place following WDAF's switch to Fox in September 1994, as KMBC concurrently underwent a resurgence to overtake both stations to become the most watched television news operation in Kansas City. In 1994, KCTV began leasing a helicopter to provide aerial coverage of breaking news and weather events; branded as "NewsHawk 5", the helicopter was grounded citing budget concerns in 1998. The station would eventually acquire a new helicopter for aerial newsgathering purposes, branded as "Chopper 5", in May 2006.
