So which would you rather have: Sunday night movies or Reality TV Shows

[80sCommercialVault]

@Baltimoreman78 The two don't necessarily have to be mutually exclusive.

Also, I'd argue that scripted television has made a huge comeback in the last few years. Cable is still full of reality trash though.

Good grief thats a long commercial stretch!

[80sCommercialVault]

@jtmjtm2001 Good lord... The commercial breaks are edited together.

[albertwentworth]

I so look forward to your videos, the editing in this one was seamless!! It actually made me feel as if I was watching it again, brings back great memories! I cannot thank you enough for your contributions, simply incredible, just incredible. Great tension relievers!

GODDAMMIT, we need more movies on broadcast television. Screw these reality shows, that's time that could be devoted to airing movies and going back to the good ol' days.

This was a great flashback! Thanks for posting!

Hearing the name "Don Bluth" gives me the odd urge to play "Dragon's Lair" on that questionable 90s (though prototyped in the 80s) entity known as CD-i. Also, " The New Generation of Olds" is one of the best advertising slogans ever. Why, I can't say. It just is.

i wish t.v was still like this. no more good sitcoms. sorry, but, not a fan of all these office comedies that aren't funny. i miss family shows and reality shows are crap.

Perhaps someone at NBC should have sit down with someone from Macy's and explained that the premiere of a hugely popular PG movie with lots of kids appeal was not the appropriate showcase for an ad featuring a woman strutting around in a sheer, see-through dress talking about how inhibited she really isn't?

KFC really did do terrific chicken back then. Today--ugh.

Did the NBC print come with the "To Be Continued" at the end?

[BerkeleyBuilt]

Was that kron 4 back then?!

[busheyrj]

wow, william shatner and his daughter in a car commercial

[keithp]

Gosh I love the land before time, too bad the first version I saw was the first vhs which cut a lot of the scenes.
