i use to fix tv's in the late 70's 76 to like 86. even in 86 the cheap tv's were comming in. i had to find another job. remember the NEW VCR's weighted a ton. (top load)
sony had a hi-fi vcr, cost $1200 lol now? $80 if even people still have them? and when i got divorce, i let the X keep the 72 pontiac with the am/fm 8 track indash lolol
Great commercial! I'd never seen that one before. Thanks for posting! I used to have a Zenith Chromacolor back in the early 70's. I remember in the mid-70's Magnavox made TV's with a built-in Pong game. I miss those old sets
@tkaye2 that's true - I had not considered that the commercial looks at 37 years worth of home entertainment but it's been 38 years since the ad itself was broadcast
The voice-over sounds like the actor Herschel Bernardi, who was the original Charlie Tuna.

That Zenith 1949 TV is one of the worst sets of all time in my opinion.

The 1972 Zenith tv is in a scrap heap somewhere or in someone's basement collecting years of dust

Just think... the 1972 Zenith products at the end are now older than the 1935 radio was at the time of the ad.
