The TV Of Tomorrow 1953

[avalanchesuperstar]

Tex Avery invented the Nintendo Wii

[DonkeyStork]

The ending just killed me, man.

[anitacharmine]

The 50s

[coolbro12389]

the TV in the stove is sorta true, they do have them in refrigerators 

[JanusHoW]

I want the model with the commercial disposer.

[malejayepes]

aficionados a la tv



[liveecarbme]

Tv really hasn't changed....600 channels of shit to choose from.

[DropshipMKII]

Man, age of the nuclear families.

[baga836]

for people who drink water?(who doesn't)

[mercenarybdu]

that was then and that is not what happened after 50 years. Computers and handheld devices now dominate the scene. TV is now just a thing of the past aside from the screen being used for other stuff.

6:16... THAT IS A WOMEN!!!!!

Fred Quimby had the best cartoons.. more softer characters and very well drawn.. THE MUSIC flows with the plot and MGM's music/sound library was impressive. Chuck Jones ruined MGM cartoons with hardening the look of the characters and scenery was substandard.. Chuck Jones was great for warner brothers loonie tunes..but MGM cartoons just didnt hit the high standards that Quimby did..

[schranztech]

We have GooGle Mars these days :)

Tex was genius, I like his cartoons very much.

Originally released in June 1953. Paul Frees is the narrator; Dave O'Brien (from MGM's "Pete Smith Specialties") appears briefly at 3:22. John Brown [who was mostly blacklisted from radio, TV and movies at the time] has a line at 5:55...

I love these old cartoons. i miss them so freaking much

[MrMegaFredzeppelin]

This is so GREAT!!! I love this.

[Poofiemus]

And nearly sixty years ago, Avery inadvertently predicts the desertification of television--900 channels, and STILL nothing's on!

[cooldudebailey]

boy, back when cartoon network was still cool and were playing the old and funnny stuff. Im only 13, adn even i think the stuff today is a bunch of bull s*it!

[MrMegaFredzeppelin]

I love this cartoon.

[maiselmartin]

Who woulda ever thought I'd be watching this old episode on my computer screen, via navigation from a keyboard and mouse, over the internet? And then share my comment with a bunch of faceless strangers?

[BurnRoddy]

HEY! I have a face... I'm sure of it

[VintageBeauty1313]

i've actually laughed out loud!! these are so funny...the cartoons today, children under they age of 13 shouldn't watch!!

[Vegnas]

@Chiriwalk

What Price Fleadom

[Chikiriwak]

Doesn't anyone remember the title for a mgm cartoon where a flea and a dog were friends and then the flea leaves the dog for a female flea on another dog??? PLZ I need to see it again

[MrsPoodle78]

@Chikiriwak There is a cartoon by Tex Avery from this period that sound similar to what you are describing. Its called The Flea Circus.

[TheExplodingToast]

Hah, I love this. XD

[fubukifangirl]

Are western movies the only thing kids watched back then?

[astrialkil]

@fubukifangirl Pretty much..both my parents (in their 70's) say they watched a lot of westerns.

[MegaRayland]

@fubukifangirl

There were many western shows in the early days of tv. Much like today every other show is a reality show.

[HardAssEnterprises]

LOL, western rickroll.

[megamanrocks99]

A TV that shoots at airplanes that interrupt the signal?

A working slot machine?

A squint mode?

No thanks.

[ladyfire44]

@ 3:33

I wished we had that today, that way we can get rid of those boring commercials.

[oldtilter]

They should pay us to watch tv instead of the other way around

[theraver2020]

1:59 - thats the ipod click wheel

[8rapid2x]

The 3D TV is the real TV of tomorrow!

-8RaPiD2x-

[GabrielMajere]

lmao It's sad how well they predicted we'd have TVs everywhere and in just about everything. XD

[astrialkil]

@GabrielMajere and they probably just predicted it as a joke !

[DeadlyGrim]

Eight channels and nothing to watch!

[liljoker062000]

very true some fuckin commercials have lasted up to 3 minutes... like the infomercial commercials....

[7flyinghecks]

They had no idea what lengthy commercials were back then.

[wwetitle818]

Westerns: the original RickRoll

[freethoughtmusic]

Neat how the fishing 'game' tv is so much like the VR fishing of today (except for being pulled into the set, at least at this point in time)

[BLANKNOTING]

@SuperCartiel

MGM "The Anything Of Tomorrow" or "The Of Tomorrow" 3D

[lisamaria1972]

[ladyfire44]

[livetolovesome1]
