Amazing Discoveries - Spanek Vertical Roster - 1989

“Amazing Discoveries” was a late-night insomniac fueled INFOMERICAL! Before the internet, Before QVC, and Before Billy Maze … Mike Levy (1948 - 2003,) was “America’s Pitch Man” for products “As Seen On TV” you see in today’s retail.
Most of these clips aired between 1989 - 1992 when cable networks signed off the air at midnight!

[@danielvanr.8681]

Pretty sure you could just use an empty beer/soda can.... 😂😂

OMG I watched this one years ago every time I could (I know, sad right!?). I have been trying very hard to find this one again for years! My favorite exchange is: *** MERLE: "They're BRUTAL Denny! Do you realize...what is this, $59 dollars worth of equip..." *** MIKE (Cuts Merle off): "Merle, Please!" @ 16:08. Thanks so much for posting this!!!

This show also aired in Europe, we got the dutch dubbed version from the Netherlands. This version namely also aired in the Flemish (dutch speaking) region of Belgium where I live. I still remember it well because of the over the top 'to good to be true' ID products and the actually pretty fun and entertaining way guys like host Mike Levey(RIP), Ian Long and John Parkin presented these products.

Another question from the audience: what should i ask for this stuff on my next garage sale?

[@pjimmbojimmbo1990]

A Turkey in the BBQ, unattended, sounds like an Invitation for a visit with Sam and Ella

[@Blyndtyger76]

When something happens at work I usually say "Spanek Magic"

[@wa2k99]

59 cents a pound for a whole chicken, those were the days

The “seals in the juice” myth has long since been busted.

[@jfrey1]

Merle acts coked up, and Denny reminds me of Webster's dad.

[@derekcabanaw1789]

Ironically enough, Denny looks like a combination of Alex Karras and Matt Millen. 😂

[@nextbarker2702]

This is prob. the earlier AD show cause the theme music is diff.

[@christieperry4361]

Mike out of breath by the end of this.

[@pjimmbojimmbo1990]

At least the "Guest" isn't as Annoying as Ian

[@bluepandaman]

It's hilarious they made an entire infomercial for this gadget. Next, let's see an infomercial for a spatula!

[@williedoit3381]

I wonder what Mike would smoke before he would come out on stage

[@smadaf]

"Roster"? Or "Roaster"?

[@CW-dc8ii]

16:10 I remember that f up from 1989

[@Moon_Presence]

What's a vertical roster?

[@SillySongs4Everyone2001]

[@Clutnuckle]

But can I set it and forget it?

[@lloydquezada6164]

[@FranklySpeaking.]

[@pjimmbojimmbo1990]

To the Audience "How many here eat Chicken/Turkey 3, 4, 5, times a week?" Unanimously the crowd raises their hands and says 'Yeahh'. In 1990, I was ROFLMAO at that!!! Nobody eats that much Poultry, cept maybe a Chicken Farmer

[@doriangonzalez1159]

Mmmm maybe if you are Argentinian.... We live with the cows but their meat is so expensive ... So we eat chicken every time 😅😢

[@pjimmbojimmbo1990]

@@doriangonzalez1159 I can eat Chicken as long as it cooked to about 190. Beef I can't Stomach, or stand the Stench of it Cooking
