I literally live off these the nostalgia takes my anxiety away

[@onetime1828]

I was trying to explain anxiety to my dad. He had no idea what I was talking about. I was so happy for him. Some people know.

Thank God for KZbin. I watch these videos to escape an otherwise shitty reality.

[@miami8089]

Wow. I thought I was the only one that would watch these videos to help with stress. These videos help take my mind of stuff and take me back to a greater time.

And 6 years after that Spider-Man episode originally aired, he had his very first balloon in the 1987 Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade.

OMG! Battlebones! I miss my toys. 😭

[@anthonymacklin4185]

This season on NBC Saturday morning was a great season. I hate that Mr. T is blocked but for me being able to put Pink Panther and Sons on makes up for it. And for those who may or may not remember this was also the season where in some areas they rebroadcast The Jackson 5 cartoon because of Michael Jackson's superstardom at the time. It was the last cartoon they would air on this channel on Saturday Mornings. It was my introduction to The Jackson 5. I knew who Michael Jackson was but I had yet to make the connection since I was only 5 at the time. The cartoon didn't get bumpers because I don't think it was aired through out the U.S. just in some areas. Either way I was happy to see cartoon characters who looked like me aside from The Junkyard Gang (Fat Albert). But once again always look forward to these uploads.

I hear ya! and thanks for watching

About the 1984-85 Saturday Morning season: Captain Kangaroo could be seen at 7:30 on CBS, but only until December when the Captain's 29 year long run on CBS ended. This was a year of TV spin-offs from popular arcade video games - the games themselves were a new phenomenon. NBC had informative 90 second spots called "One To Grow On" scattered during the morning. ON WEEKDAY AFTERNOONS: Seven new 'Afterschool Specials' were broadcast on ABC while CBS had six 'Schoolbreak Specials' that dealt with subjects like teen suicide. Popular in syndication - He Man and the Masters of the Universe.

Cool Mone I see you got some great new video. I'm all about collecting the bumpers from this era, and 1983. That Spidey n friends is crisp. It sucks that you had to wipe the audio from the credits. There are some other great commercials in this collection too. I don't know who reaired Pink Panther and sons, but I'm sure glad it's not lost forever. I just really like the look of that show.
