Toys "R" Us. Even though I'm all grown up, I'm still at heart a Toys "R" Us kid. 👦
I loved Chuck E. Cheese, even though everyone makes fun of the animatronics, I want it to return.
None because I don't care
pan am
@@dominictrujillo3323Toys R Us is coming back but as a pop up section inside of many Macy's stores across the country.
I remember when my mom would pick me and my sister up from school every Friday and we head straight to blockbuster's to rent snes games and movies.
One of my happiest childhood memories. RIP block busters.
Honorable mention: Hanna-Barbera
Seriously though. The once legendary animation studio were at a top of their game with their best classic cartoons such as Scooby-Doo, Yogi Bear, Huckleberry Hound, The Flintstones, The Jetsons, Johnny Quest and many more. By the 1990's, there were big changes in the company. Turner Entertainment bought Hanna-Barbera through a joint venture with Apollo Global Management in 1991 (Turner eventually bought Apollo's stake of Hanna-Barbera by 1993 becoming a full owner). By 1996, it merged with Time Warner (now Warner Bros. Discovery). Five years later (2001), following the death of the company's founder William Hanna, Hanna-Barbera closed their doors and folded to Warner Bros. Animation. When it comes to Hanna-Barbera, it's their wacky sound effects you hear in pop culture.
Then, the Warner Bros. Discovery merger happened, and the new CEO removed the majority of the HBO Max library, canceling potential animated shows or movies with tax write-offs, and releasing new movies or shows that no one asked for like Velma.
They also ruined Cartoon Network with that merger too. 😢
Would literally sit and watch Hanna-Barbera cartoons on Cartoon Network all day
@@BashayG7175 Back from the mid to early 2010s I usually stay up late to watch either Boomerang or Adult Swim.
I mainly watched Cartoon Network just for The Clone Wars but missed out on most of the series due to couldn't afford that channel back then.
Then, Disney+ was released, and back in the Summer of 2021, I watched an entire series just to catch up to Season 7.
I tell my cousins all the time, they were Disney lovers but nothing can outdo the wacky Hanna-Barbera duo
Indeed, they created so many memorable cartoon characters. I grew up on their cartoons, and so did my parents.
Yes, Blockbuster was THE place to go to rent a film on a Friday or Saturday night. The sitcom Blockbuster might have thrived better had it been set in the 90's or 00's, during its heyday.
Yeah, that one hurt
Video stores as a whole were The Heydey back then. They couldn’t compete with the internet, but man you know it was the weekend when your parents took you to get a movie, show, or a game for the weekend.
It was the only place and it stay disorganized and they killed themselves by laughing at Netflix owner
Yeah, which is why I'm not a fan of streaming services like Netflix, Disney+, HBO Max, Prime Video, Paramount+, and Hulu. They seem incredibly shallow compared to Blockbuster. Not to mention how unbelievably messy they've gotten lately.
@Aidan Hever At least Netflix will ask you if you are still watching without missing anything. Then gives you the option of them not asking again. I forever miss climatic endings because of Prime and Paramount.
Borders closing still hurts my soul. Funny story I was in college when it shut down and I mentioned it in class the professor said he was going to miss it too.
I also miss "Toys "R" Us" I remember getting their catalogue at Christmas going through it and circleing what we wanted, and going to the store to get gifts for my brothers, good times….good times
I miss Borders so much. It was absolutely my favorite bookstore.
mine too
Yes, I love that bookstore.
Yeah also missed that place too.
I miss Borders too.
I prefer Waterstones
Blockbuster is really missed, but I can think of at least 2 honorable mentions: radio shack and circuit City
Oh yeah those are really good honorable mentions.
I miss Radio Shack. I loved being able to get the things I needed to install electrical devices in my trucks. ( CB, stereos, etc)
@@locomaniacsinc That's is something that nowadays generations can scarcely comprehend.
@@kellychuang8373 Today's generations seems to have lost the pride it takes to actually achieve success in something other than physical activity ( playing around)
We're losing the real craftsmanship that furnished our homes, as well as the homes themselves. Virtually everything that was handcrafted is put in the mechanical hands of robots.
@@locomaniacsinc Yeah you're right on that along with common sense and parts that people should definitely not be messing around in.
I wish Showbiz pizza would come back. Especially with Chuck E. Cheese now getting rid of animatronics unless you go to Disney/universal or live near a Rainforest Cafe it would be hard to see animatronics performing.
They sort of mention that CEC and Showbiz merged and they wonder who won the pizza war. Well, Showbiz won as the company remained Showbiz, only the stores all changed to CEC. They did so because CEC had better branding. I know because I worked at a location that went through the rebranding while in college. We changed the store to CEC, but we still had the Showbiz animatronics (which were far superior to CEC). Our paychecks came from corporate - Showbiz Pizzatime, Inc.
I will agree, without the animatronics, it really isn't a CEC or Showbiz. Kids now a days are not interested in them anymore, though.
my first real job ever was working at a blockbuster. man was it fun. i was working there when the movie Elf hit DVD and as a christmas present that year all employees got the movie. i still have it.
I watched it on TV.
@@mojo3318 Its a great movie and one of my fondest memories of working for them. The biggest though was when the horror movie 13 Ghosts came out. I used my employee perk to rent it for free when it first hit shelves and i LOVED IT. I started recommending it to people and all came back asking me to recommend another it was so good. As a kid that felt so great and i thank Blockbuster for that
Let's add Circuit City and in the near future Gamestop. Borders one still trips me out cause Barnes & Noble still surviving, if barely. If Blockbuster had bought Netflix, I always wondered if we'd still have Netflix, or if it would've eventually fallen, since we all pivoted to streaming, and BB wasn't built for that.
Can't stand gamestop
and in the near future Kmart
i don't see gamestop going anywhere. it's still the first place i check when i want to save some money by buying a video game used instead of new.
I miss Borders 😭
Gamestop is still around
Thank you for putting Showbiz Pizza Place on this list. For me, this place was the essence of 80s nostalgia wrapped up in one pleasure filled package. The distinct and most delectable flavor of their pizza, the arcade games I remember the most fondly, and the tantalizing playlist of 80 hits in the background was one experience that summarized the most ecstatic moments of my preteen years!
Let us not forget Sears and Kmart, those two could be a video in and of themselves
I think there is ONE Kmart left in Aspen Hill MD...
I miss the Kmart down the road from me. There was always someone who knew what the hell they were doing. I hate Walmart, with their "Walking Dead" associates.
@L. Salisbury they closed it down. It's a Floor and Decor now.😥
@@locomaniacsinc lmao 🤣
We have lots of kmarts stores in Australia
For someone who was born in 1995 The biggest Losses to me on this list was Toys R Us and Blockbuster man oh man both places made my childhood epic
I was also born in ‘95 so I know how you feel.
I loved Toys R Us, especially when my kids were small. They didn’t have just great toys but great clothes.
I thought Toys R' Us is coming back to U.S? I think Toys R' Us is still on Philippine malls since its franchise(?) is owned by a mall tycoon.
I loved going to Toys R Us many times as a kid. Loosing a childhood toy store is just heart breaking.
Wow.
Blockbuster Video was a staple of my Childhood. I loved renting Video Games Friday's after School.
Shame that Gimbels isn't in existence anymore, it was a great place to shop. Elf even had the primary action take place at a Gimbels, despite it having been defunct 16 years by the time of the film's release.
That's why the exterior shot of Gimbels was actually shot in Canada
Didn't the production team ask Macy's to film in one of their stores, but they said no?
I loved the GULF sign turning back when I was young. It was cool. I also remember SOHIO gas stations. Blockbuster was the place to go on weekends to hopefully pick up one of the newest releases. Borders is one I miss the most. Loved that store. Such great memories. Thank you! 😊
A company I remember a fried chicken chain based in California called Pioneer Chicken. It was competitive with KFC but it filed for bankruptcy in 1988 and being sold to Popeye’s soon after, there’s still 2 locations but it’s gone for the most part with the locations being turned into Popeye’s or being bought by other businesses
I loved Discovery Zone when I was young. It was one of "Blink and you'll miss it" situations. From its first location opening to it's last closure, it was 'a thing' for only 14ish years. Coincidentally enough, at one point in time the majority stockholder for Discovery Zone was Blockbuster, and before it went totally bankrupt, sold several store locations to Chuck E Cheese's owner, CEC Entertainment, inc. I remember one of its big themes before going out of business was Godzilla: the series. I remember they were always showing segments of episodes on the screens, and I vaguely remembered there were hardboard displays of the characters in the series as targets in the laser tag room.
Another Company that isn't around anymore that I remember is Ames. Although I have been hearing talk of reviving the chain.
Other American companies that are gone:
Studebaker
Cellino & Barnes
Pathmark
Sears
Kmart
Terminal Reality
Sears still exists
Cellino and Barnes is a law firm, not a company.
i would add circuit city, radio shack and some other airlines like delta and twa. i miss blockbuster, even if the movie i wanted wasn't there, i could always find 3 or 4 others. it scares me that streaming, home delivery, carry out-- only restaurants and the like are slowly turning us into a nation of hermits.
Delta is still around
I think Radio Shack got resurrected as a website store.
@@justus4685 got them mixed up with eastern lol
Actually, TWA isn’t as gone/forgotten as you think. If you’re ever traveling to the JFK airport in Long Island, there’s a TWA hotel and museum. There’s areas made to look like the 1960s, and there’s a Connie plane that’s a bar lounge where you can have a drink. A lot of people visit that place (it’s great to see the terminal, the plane, and learn about TWA’s history).
@@mistermattmoose easy mistake 😁
I think the two most missed companies are ToysRus and Blockbuster.
I miss blockbuster and toys r us. They both used to be in the shopping center behind my house.
Toys R Us was actually trying to make a comeback… not sure if that’s still in fruition though
@@nsasupporter7557 I heard about that like a partnership with target or something like that.
I miss Borders. In my childhood, I also had Crown Books
Fuck Borders… I tried to get a job there in the late 2000s to mid 2010s and they rejected me.
Of course that might’ve had to to with the fact that the economy sucked at that time
I worked at Blockbuster and Borders. I had already moved on from Blockbuster when they started closing, but I worked through the last day at Borders. Nothing left but one small shelf with some odds and ends. We all got together in the empty store and had ourselves a going away party. Loved working at both places and I'm sad they're gone.
Miss another movie rental store called Family Video. They survived the streaming wars, but all their physical locations went down when Covid hit. Technically still alive through online only. Another company I remember is flying Northwest Airlines before they merged with Delta. So sad to see some iconic multi billion dollar companies from our childhood that cease to exist.
call me crazy, but I really want Blockbuster back. That was a huge part of my teen years, going and getting several horror movies to binge watch with friends over the weekend as well as loading up on movie theater candy and popcorn.
What about Discovery Zone? It went out of business forever in 1999! And I was about 7 years old then!
Of all the restaurant/playplaces I've ever been to as a kid, only it had those rolling tread thingies (which I would WAY LATER find out to really be a roller slide). It's been said it also had a zipline (never noticed). That just names a few things.
And one more thing: Perfect Swing, down in Norman. It was another such place, and it came with what I didn't know to be punching bags in part of the playplace! Also inside was an arcade! There was also an outdoor part, and it came with two go-kart rides (one being kiddie go karts), mini golf, and a pool of bumper boats! Got hit by a tornado in, I think it was 2010 (at least I was no longer a minor then).
I was 12 in 99, I remember that place but never went there
@@nsasupporter7557 Are you talking about Discovery Zone or Perfect Swing?
@@KBAFourthtime Discovery Zone
@@nsasupporter7557 I see. So no roller slide experience (there), may I infer?
I remember attending a few birthday parties at my local Discovery Zone as a child in the 90s! I also remember the commercial that used to air on TV over 2 decades ago!
I really miss Blockbuster. Who’s with me?
I do.
I miss Blockbuster too. Some of the movies I used to watch when I was a kid came from the store. I just can't believe it's gone.
Loved walking the aisles and reading the video cases. I liked that much more than streaming.
Me
I do
I had a birthday party at Showbiz pizza when i was a kid. That place was awesome! I think i even still have an old cup from there!
How much for the cup? :)
I miss Borders! They had my favorite light novels and manga, of course I get them off Amazon now, but they were my go to place for books.
In Canada we lost 3 of our 4 major department stores (Sears, Woodwards (and their foodfloor) & Eaton's) Only The Bay exists and it is struggling (oldest department store/company ever) They are bringing back Zellers at some locations at it was it's cheaper side-discount store. Fields was their even lower store. I miss A&A music & HMV. Toys R Us still is in Canada. Toys and Wheels was our toy store before Toys R Us.
Those AMC Javelin's were wicked cars. Of course, they'd never have anything like that these days. I miss Toys R Us. It made Christmas and birthdays for the kids easy.
Javelin was nice. I miss my AMC Spirit, though. That thing was built solid like a tank. I sold it because it was rear wheel drive and I moved to the snowy hills of upper Michigan. I couldn't get up the hill of my driveway. I wish I would have picked up the Eagle, which was the 4 wheel drive version. I might still have it now if I had.
How ironic. I celebrated Showbiz Pizza Place on my fourth birthday in 1994. It's no wonder why the place seemed abandoned every time I visited outside during my childhood. And then, it was replaced by Italianni's in 2001. However, sometime in the 2010s, it was converted into a casino.
Several record store chains can be on this list: Kemp Mill, Waxie Maxie's, Harmony Hut/Sam Goody, Peaches...
Suncoast definitely needs to make a comeback because I was my destination for everything anime
I would like to see Borders Bookstores come back. Spent many happy hours there!
Man, I miss Toys R Us so much! It was my childhood store, and I bought so many Legos from there when I was a kid! I even frequented the store before it closed in 2017!
How is Sears and Roebuck not on the list?!?!?!?
Don't forget Kmart
The heathens on this channel
are 2 young 2 remember
Sears and Roebuck .
Toys R us
On August 7, 2022, Toys "R" Us opened new locations in nine states: California, Georgia, New Jersey, Illinois, Nevada, Louisiana, New York, Maryland and Missouri. These stores are located inside Macy's stores and range from 1,000 to 10,000 square feet. The company plans to open a store in every Macy's location in the United States by October 15, 2022, just in time for the holiday season.
That is cool. absolutely no other place to buy toys. I don't shop at Walmart.
As soon as I saw Gimbels I immediately thought of that Simpsons scene lol
And I thought of Elf, because Macy's wouldn't let the use their name.
Blockbuster made the mistake of not merging with Netflix
I loved Showbiz, even forgetting Chuck E. Cheese's name earlier today when I was reminded of the chains.
Honorable mentions:
Pier 1 Imports (technically the company still exists, but the brick & mortar stores have all closed)
Mervyn's
Fry's Electronics
Circuit City
CompUSA
Radio Shack
Hollywood Video
Bon Ton
Ames
Kay Bee Toys (ironically acquired by the also-defunct Toys R Us)
Pay 'n Save (and by extension Lamont's, Ernst-Malmo, and Sportswest)
Sears/Kmart (functionally defunct)
Associated Grocers
Woolworth's
Sharper Image (the brand lives on, but in name only)
Pay 'n Pak (no relation to Pay 'n Save; shortly before their folding, their CEO left to found Eagle Hardware & Garden, which was later acquired by Lowe's Home Improvement)
Toys R Us was my childhood 😢
Me too!
@@devingiles6597 Both cries*
It's in Canada now
@@dianaphillips4087 oh ok must travel there
3:36 I still remember going to Showbiz Pizza, specifically the one shown in that commercial on 76th and Good Hope
Milwaukee?
When I saw 2001: A SPACE ODYSSEY the first time in 1976, I was with my father and when he saw that Pan Am ran the space plane, he said "Figures it'll be THEM running it."
Watching the film now, it's an ironic joke.
Kuwait had Showbiz Pizza, so many wonderful memories from the 90s. I Still remember every detail about it, from the place's design to the games that I played
I don't know if these were everywhere in the US, but I miss Service Merchandise. I really like the idea of the showroom of items and then you'd order it either at a checkout or later through the in store computer and then go to the front of the store and watch it come down the conveyor. I thought it was a practical use of store space to keep everything in the warehouse and only have floor models taking up less space. Additionally, when they discontinued selling an item, if only the floor model was left, you could get a huge discount. I remember I bought my stereo there piece by piece when the floor models were discontinued. It took about three months, but I got a Pioneer system (tuner, equalizer, tape deck, and 6 disc CD changer) with Bose speakers for about one third the price. The only issue was you might not get a box and there might be some wear from usage. Mine were cosmetic mainly scratches on the top of each unit. All it took was a black sharpie and you couldn't see them anymore. Miss that store.
I had a birthday party at showbiz pizza when I was a kid..i saw the animatronics and even got a record of the songs(which I played a lot for some reason).then it closed down and was replaced by biglots.someone mentioned that biglots has been there for 30 years and it made me feel so old lol
The downfall of Pan Am started with the Lockerbie tragedy, the gulf war was the final nail in the coffin.
Honorable mention: RadioShack?
Sears?!
Also, I REALLY miss Border's...
Kmart, Sears, Circuit City, Venture.....way too many to list and all sadly missed
Borders closing hurt my heart man . They had the coolest stuff
Show biz isn’t really gone but all locations have been replaced with church e cheese
It was gone to me :(
Also, I think the parent company is still called Showbiz Pizzatime, Inc.
Lol you said church :)
I'm surprised Kmart isn't on the list
ShowBiz Pizza actually bought Chuck E. Cheese. The reason they converted the entire chain is because ShowBiz didn't own the rights to the characters in the band, but Chuck E. Cheese did own the mouse. That's why they even kept the same jingle and just changed the words for the commercials.
Don’t Forget about Mattress Giant.
I was kind of expecting Oldsmobile, Mercury, Plymouth, or Pontiac to be on the list.
They really were companies when they faded out of existence, but rather divisions. I know they included AMC, but that was a company that disappeared as a company, not a division.
I remember Limited Too being somewhere to go for certain types of stuff (for me, it was Neopets plushies and merch; RIP the ability to buy them in store, even at Target). Now it's called Justice, and I think they even make outfits for PETS now?
I wasn't into the girly aesthetic and didn't buy anything there except Neopets stuff, but I feel like Limited Too switched the Justice! For Girls or something.
I miss Toys R Us though, and heck, even BlockBuster, since I could rent games there and find out if I liked it before attempting to purchase it for real.
But also lol at how Amazon pretty much brought down multiple businesses in one fell swoop. :P
As an almost 19-year-old who enjoyed the local blockbuster until 7 or 8 years old, I can tell you, none of my 18,19 or 20-year-old friends have ever been to one and they all had to ask me what Blockbuster was. I'm saddened that they will never experience the pure beauty of a blockbuster. Man, those were the good days.
Toys R Us is back and Blockbuster Bella is a thing.
I though so they got it back months later did they?
@LoganG32 Yes, unfortunately we are only seeing them within Macy's at the moment. 😞
@@mygreywolf I saw that
Damn, this has me feeling old! I remember so many of these growing up 🥺
Even though toysrus had many more toys than other stores, the prices were outrageous.
That's true and part of the reason why they went under. That's part of the issue with specialty stores, their prices are generally higher. Borders and Barnes and Nobel were no exception. When you can get them elsewhere for cheaper, why buy it there?
I worked 10 years at Blockbuster Video. Best job ever.
I live in West Virginia and there still is a Show Time Pizza (now called Billy Bobs Wonderland) in a town called Barboursville, About 20 mins east of Huntington and the Ohio Kentucky border. I’ve been there recently and the band is still playing.
I assume it was a franchised store that somehow got to keep the rights to use the characters. I worked for Showbiz during the change over and all corporate stores were forced to change to CEC branding, although the band remained in place for a few more years. The Rick-a-Fire Explosion was a much better band that CECs. Billy Bob, Goonie Bird, Beach Bear, Mitzy, Rolf, and Fats were just superior.
@@honolulublues5548 I believe you are correct that it was franchised because to correct myself it’s always been called Billy Bobs Wonderland and was never a Show Time Pizza. And 100% agree Team Rock-A-Fire Explosion for life. Lol
Netflix Killed the Video Store. The radio star hath been avenged.
There use to be a Borders, Toys R Us, and Blockbuster in my town. Borders was going out of business because people were buying ipods and liked them better than books. Now, a place called DoSpace is standing where Borders was. In another video, I learned about Chuck E Cheese's and Showbiz Pizza Palace mixing. Also, I've been to Chuck E. Cheese's when I was little! That place is still in my town and has changed a little. There use to be an old picture of Chuck E. and I heard that the animatronics there were removed because people found them creepy. I never did. In fact, when my sibling and I were little, we got on stage with them and I acted like an animatronic.
By the way, I enjoyed the video!
Tower Records?
How about a list for movie studios that don't exist anymore?
Technically Blockbuster still exists, but as a single store now.
So it shouldn’t be on this list
@@poke125 ToysRUs are still around too. They was bought out by Macy's and now they are in the Macy's stores.
I used to love Stein Mart!! Really miss it
i definitely wanna see Yogos come back. i don't remember if they're american or not but they were so delicious!
I really miss borders 😫
But.... Tor R Us still exits??? They were starting to open stores in Macy's and online.
Not all Showbiz Pizzas turned into Chucky Cheeses. One in Barboursville WV still exists as Billy Bobs Wonderland.
Yeah, Jason mentioned this, too. I have to venture a guess that this location was a franchise store that somehow got to keep the rights to the branding and characters. All corporate owned stores were forced to switch branding in the late 80s and early 90s. I worked for the company during that time. Showbiz Pizzatime, Inc was then the parent company to CEC.
Tbf Toys R' Us actually never left. They just went to Canada. And didn't Macy's bring them back in their stores recently? 🛍️
Thank you, you truly rock and I enjoyed the crap out of all of this. Just hoping I can get a good backup for the rest of this video. 😁
I wanna see showbiz make a comeback as it’s own relaunched restaurant brand with a modern twist
I can't wait for Zellers to re-open!!
You forgot THE WHERE HOUSE, MUSIC PLUS & SAM GOODY.
I remember we had Showbiz Pizza near where I grew up. I also remember it turning into a Chuck E. Cheese in the early-mid 90s.
It feels like this list is a follow up to the "Top 20 Stores That Don't Exist Anymore" list where a lot of the stores still had open locations outside the US.
ShowBiz Pizza acquired Chuck-E-Cheeseand Showbiz was not able to negotiate with Aaron Fechter who created the animatronics and owned the character rights for the Rock-afire Explosion. After failing to get the rights from Fechter, ShowBiz decided to change brands to their newly acquired Chuck E Cheese and re-dressed their Rock-afire characters to Chuck E Cheese ones. So overall ShowBiz won and the company would have remained named ShowBiz Pizza if it hadn't been for the rights issue over their mascot characters.
I think the parent company may still be Showbiz Pizzatime, Inc. At least it was when I worked for them, but it's been years.
I remember Borders, Toys R Us and Blockbuster
Us Canadians had another option besides Blockbuster with Rogers Video. Good times getting to rent an N64 game for the weekend after a long week of school.
I remembered that Qubo shut down on February 28, 2021 and I grew up watching a ton of stuff on Qubo.
I miss Borders. The one I went to and purchased from had a Seattle’s Best Coffee in a cozy upstairs area. Their version of the Frappuccino was superior to Starbucks’ and Peet’s’. And they had the most amazing Vanilla coffee shake. Ah, nostalgia!
I wish Mall Of America would open a BIG Fun Toys R Us store and 90’s Nickelodeon store!❤️📺🎶👍🏻
This is the same with "Top 20 stores that don't exist anymore" before a month
"Hi Lisa! Hi Super Nintendo Chalmers!"
@12:20 🤔SEARS???? Really It's an empty spot in every mall across the country ...
1:49
“Seven sisters oil companies”?
One thing that made easier for some companies from those to close was the fact that they opened so many freaking stores,and their financial after so many years was harder to hold up because of their big fleets as well! We have a small toy store in greece from 1946 which was from the day i was born in the 79s with us and still running its business smoothly after so many years.I say that if you want a healthy business to grow to make some few stores and not so many to be able to hold on your feet.Especially those days which online stores like amazon are exists is even more harder to compete!
I see Billy Bob! I'm pretty sure the Chuck E. Cheese jingle used to be the one used for Showbiz Pizza, the only difference being the names used. "Showbiz Pizza, where a kid can be a kid."
That is true. I worked for them during the change over. The Rick-A-Fire Explosion was a better, er, band.
Block and Hollywood video were may childhood in the 2000s
Thank You for the List and Video 😀
Toys R Us and Ringling Bros. circus where places that gave me alot of enjoyment growing up.
I want to see blockbuster Make a comeback and also toys r Us make a comeback and if they do voy would that surprise me.
