[@illuminatedcrosshairs7865]

I was in the 10th grade, getting high, trying to get lucky?! And loving everything about growing up in the 70's. best music of all time!

[@Johnnyboy792]

I concur Lee :)

[@illuminatedcrosshairs7865]

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks so much Lee... we were a lucky generation :):):)

[@illuminatedcrosshairs7865]

You are very welcome! And thank you for bringing those magical memories back! I love all of your where were you videos, but the 70's ones are my favorite! Now if you could beam me back there?!! I think I would stay!

[@4IAMATITOK]

TV was free! So were people!

[@damianlatimer5753]

Dallas was my favorite program from 1978-1987 and i remember watching Halloween at the drive in in 1979

[@LannieLord]

GREASE DOMINATED 1978 ! Disco and Grease.

[@donniedowner1686]

All are awesome!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks

[@Johnnyboy792]

+Donnie Downer Hey Thanks DD !!! More coming down the road :)

[@GeminieCricket]

I was 26 and hubby was 29 and we had just bought a fixer up house in the small city, then, of Yorba Linda, California. Still fixing it up 41 years later but it is paid for. Wow, we both worked and watched movies and tv and read books and listened to music and went on vacations and danced to disco music and ballgames and our lives were never dull! America Rules !

[@Johnnyboy792]

That sounds awesome. Thanks for the share :)

[@helenperez9828]

My first year of middle school, such an awkward time but boy I am I ever so happy to have the memories of these 1978 days!! Love the music! Thanks for posting!!

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thank you Helen !!!!

[@glennso47]

In 1978 I was right here.

[@KarrasBommer]

Thank you so much for taking the time to compile these histories. I can't help thinking the 60's and 70's were the two best decades of the 20th century.

[@Johnnyboy792]

You're not the only one Karras :):):)

[@lilamydogscruffy8842]

1978. 16 years old and in 11th grade in high school. Met and fell madly in love for the first time. I still think of him to this day. :)

[@GwenWittig]

Oh lordy...in '78 I was 13, couldn't get enough of Grease, horses, and Halloween! Everything was all about the beach here in Florida, and life was good...

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thank you Gwen !!!!!

[@sheldonxwilliams]

When I watch your videos, I love reading the comments from those before me. They seem like a legend to me when they talk about the good Ole days. Oh I was born in 94.

[@Johnnyboy792]

LOL... believe it of not it really was :):):)

[@DMS-pq8]

Kids today have no idea how amazing it was to be able to record a show at home

[@Johnnyboy792]

I thought the VCR was the greatest invention ever :)

[@AlbertaRose94]

Mine does. We sometimes travel and stay in a hotel. No recording of shows, no rewinding, no pausing, no HD channels makes checking the local attractions REAL easy.

[@m1k3again]

Kids now-a-days don't know what it's like not to wan't to be indoors

[@glennso47]

You can still do that if you have blank recordable CDs.

[@josephobrien9008]

Man Johnny, I wish we could go back. I was in 10th grade, growing up in Massapequa, NY. I miss those days but I especially miss the people, so many people gone now.

[@Johnnyboy792]

I hear you Joe. We didn't take time to appreciate it. Thank you :)

[@Kevin-gf5dh]

I was 11 years old Wayne NJ living the good life. Some of the greatest movies and sitcoms. Looking back we really enjoyed life. It seems to me the new generation is never satisfied with anything. Hate to be them.

[@Johnnyboy792]

I couldn't agree more... great era for movies & TV Both !!! :)

[@MirandaDykes]

1978... the year I was born, during a horrible snow storm in February, and the year of the all-time best horror movie EVER made... "Halloween".

[@Johnnyboy792]

I so remember that storm... I was in it :) - JB

[@MirandaDykes]

My parents had quite a hard time getting to the hospital, they say there was 13 inches of snow, and all they had was a Mustang.

[@Johnnyboy792]

I'm happy you made it Miranda :)

[@MirandaDykes]

Thank you!♡ And thanks for making these videos! I'm going to make my kids watch this one! :)

[@Johnnyboy792]

Hope they enjoy it... this generation needs things to explode every 5 minutes LOL

[@bobdewey6727]

Just like '76, '78 was another great year for Television and Movies.

[@josephobrien9008]

The blizzard was awesome. I skitched during the whole thing. Must have logged 100 hours on the bumper of a UPS truck. Those were the days!

[@Johnnyboy792]

A whole week off at school... so awesome !!!

[@jimmymed1]

thank you so much . I just spent 27 min with a big grin on my face

[@Johnnyboy792]

Many thanks to you, Jimmy…. i’m happy to put a smile to your face. Thanks to watching.😊

[@franceslarsen4037]

I was 16. My mother got me a cassette of Grease soundtrack as one of my Christmas presents:) I also got a small, handheld radio (Norelco?) anyway, I had so much enjoyment from that little thing that I carried with me everywhere! Used to really like the Nancy Drew shows... I remember "Ready to Take a Chance Again" (Barry Manilow) was so pretty, from the movie "Foul Play," Goldie Hawn and Chevy Chase. I had a total crush on Andy Gibb with the Shadow Dancing song, and oh my God, I thought I would die if I couldn't meet Robby Benson (saw him in t.v. version of "Our Town" that June) and they came out with "Ice Castles" movie in December. Loved "Have you Never Been Mellow," "Time Passages" (Al Stewart) and Y.M.C.A. songs.

[@ncisducky4ever]

1978 was pretty cool. Never forget I was 11 years old and my Aunt Jill let me stay up late for the first time ever to watch her favorite show, Midnight Special, with her and was introduced to my future favorite rock singer, Steve Perry in Journey. Also Las Vegas at that time really did look like what people saw on Vega$. I just LOVE all of your videos, they cheer me up when I need a little visual pick me up :)

[@Johnnyboy792]

My job is complete then :) Many thanks for tuning in. All the best to you - JB

[@jobee1]

I was18 and starting college abroad. Great time.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks Karen ! I hope it brought a smile to you :):):)

[@PeterCrombie-cu6bx]

Steve Rubel predicted influencers and reality stars! Who knew! I love your videos! I laugh, I cry, I find who I am.

[@jenhoney9741]

All of ten. First pair of rollerskates. Finally no more stinky skates. Lol. Saw Grease at the drive in. Ended up sitting by myself, thank you. Sometimes me myself and I really were better company...but was hard to take the things going wrong:(

[@tylergann5]

I'd rather be young then than now

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks Tyler :)

[@truthhurts7742]

I want to go back.

[@karlnemo8658]

Thank you for making these videos. What's really weird is watching this and realizing how so many of those you saw on the Tube back then ended up, like Sadat being assassinated, Pete Rose being barred from baseball, etc. Sometimes you get so caught up in where you are right now that you forget where you've been, and how you lived. Like life itself, these are bitter-sweet reminders.

[@ktbon231]

High sophomore. Halloween was so scary. After the movie was over, people ran to their cars.

[@MrTochi35]

My better years of my life tk somuch

[@Dan-uv5lw]

During the storm, Cars were abandoned along Route 128 now 95. for abut a week. No school, snow everywhere in 6 to 10 foot piles after plowing and shoveling, I was 10. Many memories.

[@Kenny-The_Wine_Guy]

Another awesome upload sir!! Thank you for sending us back in time!! Take care.

[@danlivni2097]

Great video of 1978. I was 8 in 78 in Queens NY

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks Danno !!! All the best too you - JB

[@kyokogodai-ir6hy]

These videos are fabulous! So many wonderful memories. Even the ones I didn't remember, lol. I remember Pop and Ma taking us to see Animal House. I was 13, LOL!!! Oh, and thanks for putting in the Thurman Munson Aqua Velva commerical!! So much fun!!!!!

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks Pally ! I always meant for these to be a time machine :)

[@fedupwithfed4047]

Ah the memories!!....I was 8 years old..All I wanted to do was watch Saturday morning cartoons...go fishing....and play football!!

[@yodalayheehoo5447]

Fed up with Fed Same here!!!

[@poodtang1]

Hardy Boys used to give me nightmares when I was small. Used to watch Taxi all the time in re-runs.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks :)

[@gymnast2890]

Ha! Watched Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys....had poster of Shaun Cassidy on my wall, until Nadia won the Olympics in 76, down came Cassidy & up went Nadia. I started watching these because I dreamed I was in the house I grew up in...but other than Dallas, I see TV shows I wasn't allowed to watch & music I had no idea was so old.

[@elizabethleninski4550]

I miss my mother..

[@Johnnyboy792]

Im sure she's watching over you Elizabeth :)

[@robm3074]

This was the year my youngest was born. To see her grow like a flash in the pan, this video seems to take me back where it all began for her. Time is the thief and it moves so quickly.

[@dorothydromgoole8040]

Highschool is where I was in 1978, the last 2 years. I was 17 and enjoying school.

[@Johnnyboy792]

.... and saw Grease 4 times :)

[@DetroitLives313]

I was in Toledo, Ohio and Denver Colorado having the best times of my life! 1978, the best year ever!

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks for the post Detroit !!!

[@DetroitLives313]

***** You are welcome. Thank you for the memories!

[@chuckhayes5919]

I was in Royal Oak, Michigan. 5th Grade I think. The winter was awesome, and that whole year was just as spectacular................at least as I remember it. Thanks again for the work Johnnyboy 792. Great job sir.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thank you Chuck ! Have a wonderful holiday my friend !!!

[@DetroitLives313]

Chuck Hayes the Great Blizzard of '78! I remember it closed schools for us for two weeks!

[@tomloft2000]

oh you can call me Ray,or you can call me Jay...…..haven't heard that in a long time.

[@SusanSusan-uz7jh]

Halloween..The Night HE Came Home!

[@JeffFrmJoisey]

I remember the "Special Report" interruption about Jim Jones aired right after Saturday Night Live and how the people & I who were watching (and partying) with thought it was just another SNL skit at first. Such is life.

[@mkdallas4712]

I was 6 six years old. I remember most of that, but I didn't realize how much of a memorable year that was for both television and movies. Of course, I remembered that being the year for Grease and Animal House, but I forgot about the other movies that year. What young boys could forget The Incredible Hulk and Battle Star Galactica released on television, especially on the heels of the Star Wars popularity. This was also the year that I remember the first Star Wars action figures hitting the market, which changed everything. On a more serious note, I couldn't read very well, but I was certainly fascinated with the Jim Jones tragedy being all over the news and magazines.

[@judyholiday653]

I was 12 in 1978 and I can remember waking up for school and the Jim Jones tragedy was all over the news .At my age I really didn't grasp it all but now I realize it was about ppl that were searching for a happy place where they felt like they belonged only find out later (if they were one of the lucky ones to get out in time) that they were living and being controlled by a psychopath.

[@shaylaknight1123]

+Judy Holiday my mom was only 9 in '78 when she and my grandparents see news of the massacre that night.seeing all those bodies had a traumatic effect on her

[@TheLAGopher]

I turned 11 in November of that year and the biggest thing I remember was the release of Superman The Movie. My sister was into Greese.She had the album and played it over and over all the damn day long.I got to the point I could sing every song from overhearing it in my bedroom next to hers. It was a great time for genre T.V. Man from Atlantis, The Incredible Hulk, Battle Star Galactica and Wonder Woman were all favorites of mine and Quicy MD was a favorite of my mother on Friday nights.

[@TheLAGopher]

Damn, I meant Grease not Greese.

[@melloone611]

I was 12. My friends and I would act out Grease songs in my next door neighbors garage during the summer of ‘78 *GOOD TIMES*😁

[@Johnnyboy792]

I can picture it now :):):)

[@glennso47]

There is a dance sequence in the movie “Airplane “ that parodies “Grease” .

[@lindamarie3364]

Thank you for posting.

[@Johnnyboy792]

And thank you for watching Linda :)

[@dillysgirl4ever]

Where was I in 1978? Graduating from high school, that's where!

[@Johnnyboy792]

LOL... how many times did you see Grease that year :) - JB

[@dillysgirl4ever]

Zero. But I did see Superman twice. Still one of the best superhero movies ever made.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Me too...Just got my license... my first driving to the movies on my own date :) Thanks Dillysgirl4ever ...And goodnight Melissa Ann Pelupe .. wherever you are - JB

[@robertabray-enhus3198]

I was 17 ,and I'm from worcester ma, and remember the blizzard of 78 very well...we didn't have school for almost a week

[@Johnnyboy792]

I was a sophomore at the time... a lot of digging for me Roberta :)

[@patabramsabrams4052]

geez I feel old I've watched all these shows

[@Johnnyboy792]

Like a fine wine we're getting better :)

[@kamarco4839]

Schools were closed on my birthday because of that blizzard! I graduated high school and went to college in New York City--saw National Lampoon in a midtown movie theater where there was a smoking section in the balcony. Where I grew up, there was no smoking in movies, and no balconies either! Boy, I didn't know anything! Thanks for the memories.

[@MultiWILLIE]

Jerry Brown makes me sick after all those years..

[@kayumochi]

Poor you. Brown has turned the state around.

[@snowmangsx1100]

1978 was one of the coolest.

[@Johnnyboy792]

I thought so :)

[@darrellmortensen9805]

april 20 i turned 18 asked my wife out on our first date, still very happily married lucky me. In addition I bought a candy apple red chevy red camero. I had to sell the car in 1993. I miss the car but we bought our second home in a nicer area. I miss my camero.

[@franceslarsen4037]

Oh, and my favorite song of that year, "Hold the Line" by Toto!

[@WalkingTallTV]

I was with my dad at the Ford dealer when he took delivery of a brand new Bronco on 4/20/78.

[@roberthawes3093]

I was only five years old in 1978 but still remember some of these things, especially the TV shows. I remember being scared by the Jonestown images on TV, loved the Incredible Hulk and Battlestar Galactica, and had the time of my life during the great Blizzard of '78, when the snow piles were taller than I was! What an era to be a kid.

[@Johnnyboy792]

I'm from CT Robert... and I was right there in it :)

[@roberthawes3093]

Good times!

[@stevestoneman2338]

Really well done! I just watched 1977 and brought back great memories!

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thank you Steve :)

Hey to all the 1978 high school graduates who drop in.. Happy 40th!! :)

Many thanks :)

[@TODD1968ification]

I was 10 in 1978 and it was the best year of my life. Thanks for the memories.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks Todd :):):)

[@sandangels73]

I was 5 years old in 1978 and remember very little of the things from the first half of the video, yet remember most of the things from the second half. It's so weird because the video over 1977, when I was 4, I remembered most of the things in.

[@Johnnyboy792]

We take in a lot more than we think. Thanks so much for watching :)

[@jimmyboy131]

This was memory overload. How time flies! Also, no Van Halen?? They released their first record in February 1978, and changed everything.

[@K2StudioHollywood]

Yes! He definitely needs to do a second edition!

[@wlhardy]

Married that year, Was living overseas (Europe) in the military, didn't come home for 2 years, missed the blizzard (okay by me!), news was late except on the radio (AFRS), got the Stars & Stripes military newspaper, heard about Jonestown, remember seen the pictures of all the bodies in the newspaper around Thanksgiving, also the Moscone/Milk assassinations in SF around that time.

[@xblackcatx1312]

awesome job

[@Leatricaw]

I was 13yrs old.......without a care in the world. Most I worried about was who was on my kick ball team. Miss those days and thank you for allowing us these great lasting memories. I can't lie watching all this makes me a bit teary eyed.

[@56cadd]

Learned how to winter drive that year in a 66 Chevy booming the 8 track.

[@judyholiday653]

I remember the "blizzard of "78" we were out of school for the entire month of January due to snow and freezing temps .I believe that winter was the one that whad the most snow and digits like 30 below zero that I can remember even now as an adult I still haven't experienced that type of weather again. Anyway "77-78" were both kick ass winters.

[@DetroitLives313]

I remember the blizzard of '78 also. It was my senior year and we were out for 2 and half weeks there was so much snow. I've been in blizzards since, but the Blizzard of '78 was granddaddy of them all! LOL!!!

[@gunrunner2297]

DetroitLives313 from sw. mi. it was awesome. I made sure I got my gf picked up before roads closed....good thing her parents liked me. ha.

[@gunrunner2297]

[@DetroitLives313]

You were one smart dude. My Dad and my best friend's Dad had to use a snow mobile to go and deliver food and milk to our neighbors it was so bad out.

[@DetroitLives313]

Getting married at age 20. Just in time to miss the Disco craze. We need more studio 54's today! Like the news man said; "a lot of people are having a lot of fun"! I'd like to see Facebook junkies turned back into the dance floor loving fun seekers that young people of all ages have always been in time past. "Smart" phones have cheated the youth out of living life!

[@Johnnyboy792]

So true my friend !!!

[@InformationIsTheEdge]

Ah, 1978. I was in second grade. My friends and I were still reenacting scenes from Star Wars in the neighborhood, and we were all looking forward to the new Superman movie with great anticipation. Mr. Potato Head and Earthquake Tower were the most fun toys in my room and later that year I would begin a never ending love affair with video games when my folks got us an Atari for Christmas. Thanks for the trip down memory lane!

[@Johnnyboy792]

+InformationIsTheEdge I got my license when Superman came out... that was my first take the car out movies moment. Still remember it till this day :) Thanks for tuning in - JB

[@MrLardog25]

I was 12 years old and sneaking into the theaters to see all these movies.......

[@Johnnyboy792]

Was that you ??? :)

[@reneemeston2916]

I was 10 living in Anaheim, California. Things were good back then in comparison to now. The music was the best, nobody was overweight you Notice? I even think that people were better looking. I would love to just take a whole day, get comfortable on the couch and watch old shows. Thanks for your videos. 🤣

[@Johnnyboy792]

No one was overweight because we had a thing called "Outside" LOL. I'll try my best to take you back Renee :) - JB

I was 8 years old in 1978. Looking back I can hardly imagine how we survived without all todays technology. Somehow we did and I wish we could go back to those simpler times. I guess that makes me old. Great memories. I remember crushing on the Hardie Boys.

Thanks Moe :)

[@melaniemills4505]

The year I started High School! :)

And what a party it was Melanie !!! :)

[@ramsoncole4605]

I remember when the head popped out of the boat underwater in Jaws, i got up out of my seat in the theater, and went screaming down the aisle to get the hell out of there. Of course i was 12...but man, embarrassing!

[@brendaleake]

1978 was actually a pretty fun year for me. I turned 13 in June. we lived in a small town 100 miles from Chicago. I was attending a Lutheran school in Rockford IL where we went to church. I went to Branson MO with my aunt and uncle in July, got sick! my aunt said maybe there was something in the water that didn't agree with me. went to vacation bible school with my friend and ran into a kid from my old school and teased him! I called him "batman" because he had worn a batman costume for trick or treat when we were younger! drove my friend crazy because I wouldn't stop talking about it and giggling over it. a lot of good tunes on the radio, always had it on (WLS Chicago). we got new neighbors so I had more kids to hang out with. visited Chicago's field museum and saw the ruins of Pompei in the fall of '78.

[@K2StudioHollywood]

This was great! I turned 10 in 1978 and still regard it as one of the best years of my entire life.

[@Johnnyboy792]

Thanks K2 !

I love your videos! I was 7 yrs old in 1978 and this brings back so many memories ~ sometimes I wish I could go back in time & do it all over again, things were so much simpler back then. Thank you for posting and keep them coming! ❤️
