LOST NBC PROMO - "LOOKIN' FOR A PLACE TO LAND"

[fonsa9o]

Remember the time when NBC had the two greatest show of all the time on air?! FRIENDS & THE WEST WING. Does anybody know when it started to suck? Probably it was when they killed Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip, I guess.

[grumpytosnowwhite]

Frasier, West Wing...my old favorites. ER, Friends....those great mainstays. All my memories of NBC's awesomeness. Even though these shows all kept airing after 9/11, they feel like relics from the other side. The delayed premieres and everything was truly jarring. It's such a minor thing, but it's something you take for granted in your day-to-day lives, so it really hammers home the feeling of interruption.

Also, a main producer from Frasier died on one of the planes :(

[GraceJustSharted]

It did air on Sep 10, but then after 9/11 it was pulled and re-tooled to be sort of a, "Let's get back to being Americans" feel-good for the delayed fall premieres after 9/11 happening a month prior. The revised version aired several times.

Such a great promo! Everyone is right, they don't air happy upbeat promos like this anymore! They should! And I <3 this song by Dakota Moon. I have it! Such a good song.

[smileyfan16]

This promo is sad because it aired the day before 9/11

[JaimiMarieLovesMusic]

epecially certain lyrics like looking for a place to land, and surrender, its actually kinda creepy, but i love the song :)

[JaimiMarieLovesMusic]

omg wow i miss adverts like this, it gave me such a warm happy feeling :) and wow FRIENDS (L) plus Will&Grace and Frasier, its so ironic though like with the song and everything who would of thought that just a few hours later ... "/

[Carls59]

OMG. This gave me the happiest warm feeling! I truely miss the way TV used to be back around 2000 (either side) ...Its what I grew up on!

[bdirknoel1077]

Sad. And none of these shows are on anymore, except Law and Order. Just sad.

[luvjoi0817]

@bdirknoel1077 ...and now even L&O is gone... true sad.

[dianastc3]

F.R.I..E.N.D.S!

[berlinosaka]

oh.. they are all great shows.

2001 was when I started to watch all these american good shows from Japan.

and Dakota moon! I love this song but cant find it anymore. someone please?

[Jon13bur]

You never see promos that happy anymore. After 9-11.....huh, I am suddenly saddened.....

[norton2]

When did NBC get screwed up?

[leifzangetsu]

dakota moon ;D ty taylor rocks !

[traveljunkie2007]

Oh my god. Such a lovely promo. What great shows. In the UK new seasons of Friends, Frasier and Will and Grace used to air all on a friday night, It was the best. Nothing has come close since.

[thenicerevolution]

ahhh, back when nbc was good.

[BerlinaLulu]

very beautiful! thank you so much!

please, anybody knows who sings here?

What's so poignant and melancholy about that ad, like any spot from the Tenth is that it makes us think of what might have been. The first Monday after Labor Day sets the stage for the coming fall, yet that day so divorced from all that would follow. We lived in one world before and another the next.

[FrickBSBGirl4]

this is sad for two reasons

1. of course because it aired right before 9-11

2. the west wing and friends arent on the air anymore =[ (luckly er is still on :D )

[tubinal07]

Not anymore :(

[FrickBSBGirl4]

i know right :/

now ER is ending

im gonna cry

:]

[CrimeSceneLovers]

Nice promo but I thought it was sad because almost all those show heve ended.

[friendssfan]

i love this promo :)

[lollipopskull]

OMG! Thank You so much for posting this video! Some of the Friends moments were funny like when Matthew Perry showed the camera that he had a wedding ring on his hand now since his character is now married.

[foxylovesme]

Wonderful! I love the WW stuff. :)

Interesting too is that David Angell, a passenger on Flight 11, was the creator and executive producer of the hit NBC sitcom "Frasier." Angell entered the Army after graduating from college and served at the Pentagon until 1972. He worked in insurance and engineering before selling a script for a TV series in 1977. With co-supervising producers Peter Casey and David Lee he formed a production company, creating and producing "Wings" in 1990 and "Frasier" in 1993.

[willandgracelvr]

[guilty210]

[stalkermuffin]

thanks for posting this

[rossrachelmonicajoey]

that can bring tears to my eyes. i mean really that night NOBODY had no clue what we would face the next day. it's almost like that was the last day the world was a little more peaceful.

[occision]

not true norad had drills going on on 9-11 of planes hitting the pantagon and towers.

[gyfrk5]

what are you talking about?

[emmisonjs17]

and that was a good promo... its understandable why they stopped playing that promo... with the tragic events the following day after it first aired... and this was the season where friends was # 1 among all shows :)

[jadevoyager]

oh My....that sent chills up my spine. And what fun to see promos for all my favorite shows that are now off the air. Thanks so much for posting this.
