It was in that time period that CBS used the color bloodshot eye logo; my reaction when I saw it back then was that it was both clever and weird!

Pete, I think CBS was getting ready for the inevitable shift to full schedule color broadcasts. Early on they also may have been testing the water to see what kind of jump they got in ratings for color shows.
