(1980-1981)

Bill appears to have hosted an audience participation show that accompanied a sitcom called The Baxters. Based on the years that the show was in production, combined with the timeline of Bill’s work history, it appears that this gig occurred between 1980 and 1981. The “TV6” logo belonged to WDSU-TV at that time.
