Nickelodeon Promo Feed (March 20-27, 1991)

Another gem from my Betamax/VHS archives. In March of 1991, I attempted to tape Nick at Nite's entire Maximum Smart marathon- during which they aired every episode of the series "Get Smart". While going through tapes the other day, I discovered something interesting that recorded early in the morning- at roughly 6AM- at the end of one of those Nick at Nite broadcasts: Instead of playing Lassie, the regularly scheduled show at that time, they aired the current Nickelodeon promo feed, featuring tons of promos, bumpers and shorts.

The late Wendell Craig (1940-2020) and Bill St. James were just two of Nickelodeon’s best-known voiceover announcers!

It is truly incredible to see this. I was born in 1996 so this was a bit before my time but it's cool to see what Nick was like before it got big.

When I was a kid growing up... back when I taped this... Nick was definitely BIG! It was just very... VERY different. I miss the old Nick. But I'm getting old so I miss a lot of things! haha Glad you enjoyed watching this! :-)
