1970-2 Channel Changing Fantastic Commercials, Restored....

[@monaural2.988]

With alllllll these lost TV shows that were brought to us decades ago, you would think there would be some online or cable outlet created to devote itself entirely to them. Nope….they’d rather rerun I Love Lucy and the Simpsons for the 800 billionth time. So much is backwards in America. So much never makes sense.

[@DreamStarGalaxy]

This is a great idea.

Man I love your style with these latest videos. Just enough of the original programming to give us a feeling of how it would have been to watch it live. Thank you

[@akbarshabazz-jenkins7847]

But why not just upload the entire telecast? It would be way easier and copyright claims wouldn't be an issue.

[@rburley204]

Much more of an entertaining line up wirh only 3 major networks, vs all the streaming options we have today. What made a huge difference back then is that we had alot more in common as to what we watched then, vs today, especially with the Sunday night movies that aired and we would talk about them in school the next day.

[@SMtWalkerS]

That is very true. We were all talking about the movie we had all seen on TV or the latest episode of our favorite TV show. It was a bonding sort of experience.

9:18--The font for "The House on Greenapple Road" was popular in 1970. ABC's "Movie of the Week," "Mary Tyler Moore," and the film "Love Story" used it, too, that year.

Like "M*A*S*H," it could've done without the laugh track, but the network probably insisted on it. Today it would likely be produced with no canned laughter.

No way the first part is 1972. Cigarette commercials were banned starting 1 January 1971 so this clip is likely all 1970 up through 1:00:00. After that it is 1972 - the news item about The Rolling Stones at the Hollywood Palladium would date the last part of this clip along with Tom Snyder mentioning the date as June 8, 1972.

[@unreeled8184]

I agree. Checking the dates of the shows listed, this seems to be from mid-September 1970.

[@tkaye2]

1:04:04 sounds like Ralph Story, which would be AM Los Angeles. That clip would have to be from after February 1971.

Ah yes, The House on Greenapple Road. I love how they dont list Bill Windom in the credits! He played a BIG role in this film. This was filmed in 69 I believe and shelved because of rhe Manson murders. Bill would later work with Jamie Lee Curtis in Grandview USA. In the kirchen scene you can see Bill wearing slippers. He hated wearing shoes.

Higgins is back again at 1:15:52 in another Dodge ad, right after Tom Snyder and the KNBC news. Robbie Rist, aka Cousin Oliver from The Brady Bunch, at 1:18:45 for Jell-O pudding in a can.
