Wonderama was a long-running children's television program that appeared on the Metromedia-owned stations before changing its title, and to some extent its format, to Kids Are People Too. It ran from 1955 to 1977, with WNEW-TV in New York City being its originating station. It ran in six other markets nationwide- cities in which Metromedia owned television stations, including Boston, Cincinnati, Minneapolis/St. Paul, Kansas City, Washington D.C. and Los Angeles. The show ran three hours and later two hours on Sunday mornings   The show was a big success and led to an offer from WNEW-TV in New York to host his own program there in 1967. Though the New York version of the show failed, he was brought in as host of the syndicated popular show Wonderama, produced by WNEW-TV, to replace the departing Sonny Fox.   McAllister's version of the show became Metromedia TV's most popular children's series. He also found the time to host a NYC edition of The Bob McAllister Show and a few children's television specials for WNEW-TV during the late 1960s and early 1970s. He hosted a reproduced Wonderama show at Six Flags Great Adventure. In 1975, Monty Hall, impressed by McAllister, flew him out to Los Angeles to host a pilot for a new game show called Carnival.
