From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Pat McCormick is a retired weatherman who is best remembered as being a versatile local television personality at Oakland, California's KTVU channel 2 in the San Francisco Bay Area.
[edit] Charley and Humphrey
At one time Pat hosted on KGO-TV and KTVU-TV, a children's show with two puppets called Charley Horse, a horse who wore a sea captain's hat and Humphrey Hambone, a bulldog. Another occasionally seen puppet was a piano-playing cat in sunglasses, Pussyfoot.
[edit] Dialing for Dollars
He also hosted a show in the 1970s called Dialing for Dollars where random Bay Area people were called and asked to guess the "Count and the Amount". The calls were made at commercial breaks during the afternoon movie.
