I was a toddler. No responsibilities whatsoever. It was awesome. This was a year before my family moved back to NY from CT

[@sambradley1968]

Hard to believe this will be 40 years soon. 😂

[@nubicep65]

I graduated high school in 1982. And I saw that stones tour end of 1981.

[@annabelkitten07]

I saw the Stones at the Garden in late ‘81. Actually had to mail in postcards to be considered for tickets. So much easier and cheaper than what one has to go through nowadays. Much as I appreciate some modern-day conveniences, sometimes simplicity was better for other things!

[@drummingdanny84]

PIX ringing in '82!

[@drewski1535]

0:11 Wow WPIX New York I always love seeing things before I was born I'm a 1986 baby

[@DanknDerpyGamer]

You know, I gotta wonder - between 1981 and 1990, did Pocono Action Park (Tannersville, PA) ever advertise? Even Great American Recreation's shorter-lived Action Mountain in Pine Hill NJ had TV spots at one point, so I would be totally shocked if they decided for Pocono Action Park to not have TV spots at all.

[@thefarsidefanthefarsidefan7374]

All commercials and promos from 1981.

[@mitzithompson6585]

I was 12 years old...it was definitely a happy new year for me because I didn't have responsibilities like now at 51 years old 😳

January 1, 1983

[@jopat87]

One of the first ads in this block ties astutely into the New Year, and the resolutions that go with it. A spot for Chinese food, and one the totes how they’re crammed with veggies.

[@melvinjackson7631]

I was only 4 years old I remember these old ad

[@antoniocognato5023]

[@ChrisLawton66]

Not gonna lie, that "Holiday Movie Special" bit went on too long. And then you brought it back! Glad I stuck around for the rest, though. Nice work.

[@leeanncotrone8369]

[@annabelkitten07]

I saw the Stones only two months before this! (Yeah, I'm old.)

[@annabelkitten07]

Ah, the classical music guy (John Williams, the late British actor, not John Williams, the Boston Pops conductor).

[@hogrokcu692]

I was surprised which one to watch because you upload so many videos.

[@fataudra7579]

All commercials from 1981 nonetheless LOL

[@pannoni8449]

Sorry.

[@Qboro66]

The 120 Music Masterpieces commercial ran for years before 1982... That Thrifty Beverage place is still there but probably under different management...

[@leeanncotrone8369]

[@joebotz1243]

The eighties and nineties were perfection
