I watch a lot of Tubi. I ran through most of the original Unsolved Mysteries on there. I like that they still update cases even decades later after each segment if the case was resolved. Tubi, Freevee, Roku, they all have some good, classic stuff.

Yes, their all pretty good. Tubi really is the smoothest running. That was some Drew there.

Here's this St. Louis Metropolitan Police Department Drug Hotline from KPLR-TV Channel 11 IN 1994, 30 years ago this year :shock:

That makes me think of the videos of kids today seeing a rotary phone and having no idea what it was or what to do with it.

Yes, see what I mean...kids today don't even know what a rotary phone is...I thought that was never possible...they gotta learn these things...the future is going to be so bleak if they don't :batsmh: :wwsmh: :smsmh:

Good Medieval there. See, Adam Eats The 80s, yet another retro show especially how that logo is at the climax.

Today is Labor Day so here is this Labor Day Coors Beer Commercial from 1984, 40 years ago this year and this one is super-duper good :)

Adam Eats the 80s is a neat little show if you ever come across it. There's episodes where he goes to companies to have them recreate food and snacks that were popular then but no longer exist.

That was a classic Mr. T video there :)

Okay, today is September the 4th, on this day in the great fun year of 1995, the premiere of WCW Monday Nitro aired on TNT. It is still one of the most remarkable nights ever in wrestling with Mongo McMichael now part of the WCW Commentator team and with the returns of "The Total Package" Lex Luger & VK Wallstreet appearing unannounced whom were just in the WWF among other great moments. AEW Dynamite's debut on TNT was great but it didn't feel like this IMO. Here's the commercial and the awesome intro :)

I missed those years. By the time I got back there was multiple nWo and half the roster seemed to be in one of them, lol.

This was still during the times when wrestling was great family fun. When the nWo truly began the Attitude Era in 96 things just felt different yet however it was still fun. I never seen those Robot Chicken Episodes before, those were pretty good with authentic voices and that they used the Jakks figures to base the characters...really cool :)

Check this, I just found this commercial by WPTT in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania of a double header of WWF & NWA wrestling in 1988 :o The headliners are Sting & Hulk Hogan...now this was one awesome commercial and surly this made at least one fan of both Federations back then 36 years ago this year :)
