Halloween 1986 was amazing. I had two pillow cases of candy that year haha.

I've lived in Philly all my life...So glad you uploaded this!! So many 'member berries. I was 12 when this aired. The bumpers and announcer really brought back memories. Thank you!!!

I vividly remember those specific Happy Meal LEGO toys. I lived on the Gulf Coast back then and every time my Grandparents came to see us on weekends, we would always go get a Happy Meal for my sister and I. I also remember winning a costume contest that Halloween. This is why your work on these videos is so important. I appreciate you making these. It’s been 10 years since I first found your channel. Thank you.

I worked in banking for 8 years and never felt thrilled about it enough to reenact The Sound of Music, LOL.

[@misdirections]

“...some scenes that my be inappropriate for ALL audiences...”?! Hahahaha

[@DanZero77]

That Meridian Bank ad sounded like something composed by Frank Gari (Stand up and tell them you're from Detroit, Turn to News, etc....) It's also been a LONG time since I saw the Brylcreem and Kurtis Blow Sprite ads! Bravo volume!

Minute Maid Commercial- That's one very strong pony to carry all three of those girls at once. Burlington Coat Factory Commercial- If they didn't indicate otherwise, I would have thought this was a commercial for a special severe weather report on the news.

[@hrtvfan2870]

Regarding the WTAF Oilers vs. Dolphins promos, that game apparently was supposed to air on KYW (the then-NBC affiliate in Philly); but KYW didn't want the early game to go up against the Eagles-Cardinals game on then-CBS O&O WCAU. (From research on a primarily sports broadcasting history themed site I'm part of, KYW had done this on a handful of occasions) Worth noting is that KYW, much like its Westinghouse-owned sister stations, were notorious for preempting network broadcasting for mostly Group W-produced series even though NBC was the least tolerant of the networks when it came to preemptions (and KYW was in the midst of a nearly quarter-century period where they were a ratings also-ran)

"Enhanced" is doing a lot of work in that introduction.

[@george.s.8491]

The good good GREAT ole days!

[@analogidc1394]

Thanks for the upload!

[@ellemjay]

0:10 must be where the South Park disclaimer came from.

[@yusakug]

0:45 - "Enhanced by Colorization!"...I'm sorry, but no classic movie has ever been "enhanced" by Colorization. That's one 80s fad I'm glad went away.

[@80sCommercialVault]

Especially NOTLD. The atmosphere it has completely goes away when you colorize it. Unfortunately a lot of awful revisionist things have been done to that movie due to it's public domain status.

[@RandomAccessDreams]

@@80sCommercialVault Thankfully the Museum of Modern Art, The Criterion Collection and The George Lucas(!) Foundation funded a beautiful new 4k restoration of it overseen by George Romero shortly before he passed away.

NOLTD-colorizing this was sacrilege Minute Maid-John-Boy's favorite OJ Meridian Bank-The Musical! Coming soon to Broadway Sprite-nowadays both 7up and Sprite taste the same Quiet Cool-remember the tagline"It can get you rich,get you high..or get you dead."

[@RathouseFilmworks]

Trust me, a colorized Citizen Kane aired on TV here once.
