Does anyone remember this movie?

This movie came out in the late 1970's or early 80's and was a made-for-tv movie. The plot was that a nuclear bomb had hit the U.S. and what came after. What made this movie different was that it was kinda like War of the Worlds back in the 1930's. The movie was made to be happening in real time like everything was real and it was really happening right then. I remember that they ran disclaimers during the movie claiming that it was not real and was only a movie. It seems to me that at the time some people were upset after the fact because they had thought that it was real. Any help remembering the title would be greatly appreciated.

hm i dont think he talks about "the day after"

tda was made like a movie not like its real

ill bet 30 shekels that is the correct movie title.

Nope it's not The Day After. That was done in movie format whereas the one I'm talking about was more like it was really happening right then. Thanks anyway!

How about Threads? Could also be Countdown to Looking Glass.

Special Bulletin

was a decent film for back then

*coughs up 30 shekels*

i think this thread is a conspiracy.

I just looked at the link for Special Bulletin and I think this is it. Thank you so much. This has really been bothering me, trying to figure this out.
