WPIX MEGA BREAK (THANKSGIVING 1986)

[@DanZero77]

Citrus Hill Select and Broadcast Television Premiere. Watching WPIX in the 80s all over again!

[@lowbridge7070]

In 1986 we were dirt poor. We could hardly afford groceries. Hunger was a constant companion. On thanksgiving day in 1986, i was home (in brooklyn, ny), watching this stuff on the tv. TV commercials for all those food products, restaurants, and supermarkets served only to torture me because more often than not, i was watching with a growling, empty belly. Its a crying shame how after all these years, seeing on youtube tv commercials that aired in my youth brings back awful memories of my poverty and hunger.

My dad I believe have a tape around which has like 6 hours of "The Three Stooges" on WPIX from Thanksgiving, but I'm not sure if it was 1986 or '87.

[@tapthatt2012]

[@a.b.s_productions]

I'm asking because don't know if they showed it on WPIX in' 86 or not.

Not sure but it sounds like Debarge: "Who's Holding Donna Now"👍

I don't know what's wrong. When KZbin forces commercials on me I click them off. But I can watch commercials like this for hours. You know why, because commercials today SUCK !!

[@hoagie1978]

Great ads. I was 8 when these aired.

Doorways To Horror has a classic APM Music cue: House Of Horror used a great deal in SpongeBob Squarepants.
