Born in 1959. Watched 1967 through 1977 back to back to back, and it truly was like my life flsahed before my eyes... only better... I'm not dead... heh heh heh.. tnx j

[@Johnnyboy792]

Many thanks for watching James... more coming down the road :)

[@CHaas-bn3xi]

I was 11 year's old in 1972 what an amazing time of life the 70 s was really a really good time to be that age. The TV shows where so much better than.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Hi C.H. It was a much better time then TV wise... even the commercials stood out better. Thanks for watching :)

[@annereilley4892]

There was still a lot of 60's in the early 70's.

[@tominrochester]

Great touch with the Waltons "Good Nights" at the end!

[@Johnnyboy792]

I thought it was appropriate :)

[@vassa1972]

So happy your with us Peter :) Thanks for watching !

[@davidbrown5357]

I was 17 years old and remember setting around with my mom and dad watching all in the family Sanford and son good times. I mess that more than anything because my mom and dad are dead. Lord what I would give to just set around just one more time with my mother and father and watch these old shows again.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thank you David. I lost my Dad 3 years ago.... not a day goes by I don't think of him.... Treasure every moment :)

Johnnyboy792 This is the year I was hatched 8/19/72. You know I like it it's 3:00 am on the Friday night/ Saturday morning and I'm on a 70s marathon. It's funny the older I get how the priorities change. Just 10 years ago, never could I imagine siting home on the weekend and being perfectly çontent with it. Then again 10 years ago I didn't sub to Johnny and his fabulous clips. Makes all the difference. Thanks.

1972 is my favorite year. So many good movies, TV shows, music. I was 12 years old. Good year. The Waltons is still my favorite program. I remember the TV movie "Gargoyles" was the one movie that I've ever seen that really scared me.

I love 1972!! I had so much fun that year even though I was 4.

The year I missed. January 1972 was the time I went to Vietnam. We all knew though that Hanoi Jane betrayed the American vet. My draft number 32. In June of 73 when I came home the Christmas tree was still up and the family celebrated Christmas that I missed.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks for watching Joe... and thank you for your service !!

Yes I do, I remember before that! I was 11 and I had my parents so life was good. Tom Bosley doing the Shasta commercial. Both blacks and whites used to coexist, sit and have a laugh watching All in the family and the Jefferson's, but we de-evolved

[@Johnnyboy792]

Very true Mr B !!!

[@justme_66]

MrBrymstond it sure seems like that. I'm from NYC, I don't think it was like that all over the country. I think parts of the Midwest, where j live now, have not been as progressive and never really mingled like some other places.

[@Littlebigbot]

justme I guess that's a matter of misguided perception.

[@chrissyswiss2799]

THE POSEIDON ADVENTURE was the true MONSTER HIT of 1972 thru 1973 and then again in rerelease in 1975. GREAT MOVIE!

[@jamiemarsh8826]

I was just eleven in 1972. So many things that happened that year or started that year touched me deeply. Music was so important to me. Shows like MASH would be with me all the way through my last year of college and very greatly shaped my world view. The Night Stalker was our Twilight Zone and scared me happily. What a year.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks Jamie... If I remember correctly The Night Stalker was one of the highest rated TV movies of the 70's :)

The Night Stalker was one of the best made for TV movies that was ever made. It's legacy can still be felt today. I think everyone at my school saw it at the time. We were talking about it for weeks.

[@Johnnyboy792]

If memory serves me correct, it was the highest rated TV movie that year :)

[@jackthompson3453]

It was indeed. From Wiki: "The Night Stalker became ABC's highest rated original TV movie, earning a 33.2 rating and 54 share which was unheard of for an original TV movie at the time." It was written by the great Richard Matheson.

[@Johnnyboy792]

... and produced by Dan Curtis... Dark Shadows & Trilogy of Horror fame :)

[@jackthompson3453]

And the Norliss Tapes - which is very close to the Night Stalker in plot & style. Right down to the tape recorder. And if it hadn't been for The Night Stalker there may never have been an X-Files.

Irwin Allen strikes again! Poseidon Adventure, aside from being a brilliantly done disaster film, was also, IMHO, the poignant as well. The Cowboys is one of my most favorite John Wayne flicks and the first time I ever saw Bruce Dern! It also became a tv series and we watched it faithfully! Absolutely loved Paul Lynde! The tv movie Gargoyles! Will never forget it! I was actually on one of the movie channels two months ago and I watched it for the first time in at least 20 years! The Night Stalker...so fantastic! It's not nice to fool Mother Nature!! I love these vids! Thank you!

***** Have you ever seen a film called " Straight Time " with Dustin Hoffman as ex con on probation for armed robbery , gets a real jerk as his probation officer played by M. Emmet Walsh . This film also stars Harry Dean Stanton , and Gary Busey . As you know it He breaks probation and hooks up with some old cons and set up some robberies . Yeah Dustin Hoffman plays this very well . He is casted against type but the film is a typical 70's anti hero film .

72. Continued spending lots of time staying in the White House with President Nixon. When President Nixon went to China, he took me, too. After July and my 9th birthday, my parents moved to Macon county N.C. because they were told it was the best place for child abusers. It was HELL. Spent the next 10 years making Macon county the best place for children to live. 1972 was a very important year to me as the chapter in my life defined me even more.
