In a concerted effort to keep viewers from changing the channel on Saturday mornings back in the day, CBS would run ads for the next show on the schedule before the closing credits of the show airing at that point in the day.
Case in point is this Wacky Races promo, with Don Messick putting on his hype man voice, in place of race announcer Dave Willock. This would air before the closing of The Bugs Bunny-Road Runner Hour.
I seem to recall seeing spots like this for other shows, such as The Archie Show. Unfortunately CBS dropped this practice a few years later.
