Hahaha, this is actually really clever. I remember PBS being like this in the Mid-90s when I used to watch stuff like Sesame Street when I was only 2 or 3 years old. In fact, you could consider that one of my earliest memories- I used to say "and viewers like you" along with the TV. :P Nice work.
I was loving it when I saw this intro in that last vid. I was hoping you would incorporate it into all your videos pertaining to Atari. It certainly creates the "look and feel" you were shooting for, at least to me.
@JunmaiShu Thanks Junmai! I'm definitely working on it. I loaded this today because I'm just starting to experiment with HD on YouTube and I wanted to see how my graphics would look.. sometimes with YouTube compression, different file types, etc. the text and graphics don't always come out right.
I thought this would be a good clip to share - not only can I tinker with HD graphics but I think it's a clip people would like based on the feedback I've received on the Atari Video System X video
I hate lapsing into "20-something fogey" mode, but it's spoof videos like these that just drive home how much I miss one aspect of TV from the 80s and early 90s------it still used to be possible to find a few seconds of QUIET here and there. PBS especially, of course, since sponsor sequences tended to be very slow and simple, but commercial TV too----there actually used to be a second or two of silent black between show and commercial. Now even THAT's too much to ask...
Your "DBS" parody logo is the most professional PBS 1971 logo parody I've seen yet! What program did you use to draw and animate the graphics?

Where did you get the "Mister Rogers' Neighborhood" footage from?

May I make a request for you to do an animation recreation of the 1971 PBS I.D. itself? I enjoyed this parody immensely.
