I have that Any Grant show laserdisc.

Sorry don’t remember. That was one of the decades I was stoned.

Christmas back then definitely had a different feel. ❤

Being a kid in the 80s vs raising kids through the 2000s…it is different.

These choke me up.

We love you POM Entertainment.

"If I could turn back time.... to the good old days... when our mommas sang us to sleep but now we're stressed out..." *sigh*

Beautiful! 🎄

Christmas specials, department store displays, firehouse/storefront train layouts, bonfires at the Christmas tree stand, last minute hustle and bustle on Christmas Eve, catalogs...what happened? I would just say it's nostalgia, I'm just remembering the warmth of my youth. But I argue that a massive change has taken place in the last 20 or so years. I hate to sound this way but it's yet another piece of culture that the last couple generations have inherited and set fire to.

The Grinch (Democrat leftwingers and all the anti christian communists) killed Christmas , little by little and by design. First they conditioned the sheeple to say ''X-mas'' and then " happy holidays'' until it became just another ''holiday'' , just as they wanted and never mind the campaing they made to ban commercials, or to make them less and less about chrismtas and they deliverately discouraged business and companies to not make any more commercials about christmas and in many other ways they actively did everything in their power to destroy Christmas and diminish it unitl it is now becoming almost irrelevant with the excuse that it is a celebration that ''offends other religious groups'' as if that was a reason for christians not to celebrate it anymore.

This makes me so happy

It sucked then, and it sucks now even more.

lee titt deserves an oscar

God. It feels like a whole different world.

Life was so much better then, families were closer, there wasn’t as much commercialization of Christmas and life was just simpler. 😢

Haha! I always tried to convince my mom to have Pizza Hut Pizza for a change from the usual Thanksgiving dinner, but she didn’t go for that suggestion. 😀

The Charlie Brown Christmas. 🎅 yasss

I miss this time.

Beautiful

What's really weird is that back in the day Christmas was only celebrated for about 3 weeks or so AFTER Thanksgiving. Today, retailers and corporations are ramming it down our throats for half a year and Hobby Lobby has Christmas stuff out most of the year. They're even doing Christmas and even Halloween sales now in the middle of summer. Too much greed and FOMO has killed the spirit of Christmas that you see in these commercials.

We thought those days would last forever. Getting dressed up to shop at the mall, going out to eat, best music, best television …. Christmas was outstanding ❤

Fuck yes

1:35:08

Who is the woman on the cover? She looks familiar.

I noticed that during Christmas 2023, there were very few Christmas themed commercials on tv. I believe that is why Hallmark network movies are so popular. There used to be a Hallmark movie special on CBS, good movies too. Now it seems we must be quiet and just let Christmas slip pass.

Colonie Center? Too funny, I grew up there…

RIP Martin Mull

0:11 Ernest Saves Christmas!

at 3:32:40 they have a commercial for The First Christmas Snow and the voice of the boy saying "Who is that? I can't see!" Is dubbed by some adult pretending to be a kid, not the voice from the show. Weird.

What a cozy time it was the 80s all was well in the world ❤

What I'd give to be able to go back for just one day; hug my Grandparents, smell my Grandma's kitchen, to wake up Saturday morning and watch Cartoons, to ride my bike all day and return home when the street light came on, to dance with my Mama as a little girl in the living room, I'd hug everyone so tightly. I'd taste and smell everything one more time as a kid.

When blonde aren't really matter 😊

50% of announcements say Christmas and 50% Holidays P.C. in the making back then.

Ernest saves Christmas is probably one of the best Christmas movies they're probably ever was it's right up there with the national Lampoon's Christmas vacation and well I don't know if there's any other movies that good but did you ever see the one with the red Ryder BB gun that's a damn classic too.

Seeing this a day after Martin Mull died.. man I loved him

I wish I would’ve realized it then but my life was basically perfect in the 80’s

Rest well Mr. Mull thanks for all the laughs you gave.😢😊

The country went to hades as of 2016 when trump became elected president of the United States 🇺🇸

Christmas in 2024 lost all its meaning since Christmas 25 years ago in 1999

1986 - Amy Grant

05:11:20 hahahahaha

This literally makes me want to cry.

So cool! I love retro! Ernest was a huge deal back then!!!

The best Christmas commercials are from the 1960s 🙏❤️

KZbin recommends 6 hours of Christmas commercials to me in June? Yes please. 😂❤

It’s funny that back then, we wanted those commercials to end and just get back to the program and now, we’re watching 6hrs of them, bringing us back to the good old days and I love it!! Thanks for posting. No, I didn’t watch it in one sitting obviously, 😆!

The 80's was a time when America still had its feet on the ground, and the Christmas season was a warm, pleasant time of year for the entire nation. By the way, the woman @4:39 is Mrs. Susan Akin. She is a stunning beauty - well-deserving of the title of Miss America 1986.

That $5 mc d gift book is now $50 bucks

Watching in June of '24 with temps in the mid 90s.

I miss the old Ronco Christmas commercials. 😢
