Back in the late '70s and early '80s, HBO used to only start movies at the top and bottom of the hour. That meant when a movie ran short, which it almost always did, HBO would run promos and short films to fill until the half hour, usually animated shorts. We somehow had HBO for one year in 1979. I'm not sure how as we really couldn't afford cable back then. Anyway, I used to look in the HBO guide for movie run times. When I saw there'd be 10 or 15 minutes to fill, I'd tune in at movie's end to watch the shorts.
Does anyone know if there is somewhere a list of those shorts? I've tried googling it to no avail. I know they ran 'Hardware Wars', but I'd like to try and track down those shorts.
