TV Years Ago

- TV as it was years ago...Openings of the popular programs, most from Monday night prime time, with full commercials, including cigarette commercials that were banned in 1971. Shows ran on ABC, CBS, and NBC.
Actually I'm old enough to have been born into the world where many of those shows came from - and, unfortunately, I also live in the world of today. For anyone under 55, the differences are unfathomable.
Watching these old TV clips, it's surprising how many of the actors have passed away.
senorkaboom It's because a LOT of them smoked quite heavily... I recently read about how Chuck Conners ("The Rifleman") used to smoke almost non-stop all day, same with Johnny Carson.
Very true. I read where Edward R. Murrow was never seen without a cigarette, and he died of lung cancer at 56 or 57. A different time.
Most of these ads and shows are from my earliest memories and earlier, but I will say this, at that time the themes and jingles were as much a part of the experience as the programs themselves. TV was still rather young and quite a novelty. These gems are as much a part of our history as any other moments of the era. What a great time to be alive, even with its faults, it was a gentler time.
my dad smoked for fifty year never go cancer but he did have a cough I never smoked I got a cough worse than he did , disease removed out of usa now are back
I cancelled my cable about 7 years ago, and have been using an old set of rabbit ears ever since. I receive the signals for several FREE over-the-air networks, and still see a lot of these vintage programs.
You old fart you. Lol
@@stopbullshitting4484 lmfao😈
I cancelled my husband and kept the dog🐕😈
Mary Aberilla 😎🤣
I'm sittin here baked outta my friggin gourd and watch your vid. I'm a little kid again! Thank you for posting!
Puff,puff, pass.
😳😂🤡😜
Ah, the Frito bandito, I remember that! And I miss the shampoo's we had back then, smelled much better & didn't mess your hair up like this junk today. And I see cakes don't rise as high anymore, as the one in this vid. Born in '58, I miss those days....
I just found this Excellent Channel. I'm almost 65 ( AUGUST 12TH) I'd like to say that this Channel brings back but some Sweet Memories . Thank You so very much. I subscribed!
I wish commercials today had cool catchy jingles like the ones in this video :)
+DarkNaomi I still sing and say the commercials for Rolaids.
Wow these clips sure took me back to when I was a kid....
A load of beer and cigarette commercials though....Amazed at that....
Carling Black Label....don't see that much anymore...but ....PBR...still around....
black label... still in nj a few years ago.
Is this Dinah Shore?
Haven't smoked in years and I wouldn't go back to it.
I still know the jiggles. And actors and TV shows. What a era. I'm glad I grew up in this age.
This was back when the intros to TV shows were longer than the TV commercials.
I miss all of these shows. Much better than what's on today. Even the commercials
this shit is so cool, i remember all of this stuff, i am 62, thanks for all the good memories, makes me hate the shit on tv now. i will watch the internet and get rid of tv.
I got rid of the TV in 2008. Haven't missed it since! UA-cam is thousand times more interesting, plus, I can always watch the occasional TV program on the net anyway.
I especially love all the docs about anything one can think of that can be found on UA-cam. And every now and then, watching these old TV commercials is just too much fun, haha!
Don't get rid of the tv. I'm watching them on my tv right now through playstation 3. You can also log onto youtube through a streaming box like a Roku and log on to UA-cam from there.
Richard Woods T.V is just a brainwashing tool and they have you right in the comfort of your own home.. This is why most people can no longer think for themselves.. If it's on T.V it must be true.. 😂😂😂😂😂😂
I gave up television 10 years ago and I listen to the old radio productions now on audio c.d and find old stuff on UA-cam.. ☺☺
Fritha71 😃😃😃😃
The same era that gave us the ultimate double entendre from Mrs. Cleaver: "Ward, don't you think you were a little hard on the Beaver last night...?"
😅
"As cool and as clean as a breath of fresh air"
LOLOLOL 😁😁😁😁
and your lunges black.
Really I've been smoking all my life not a dam thing wrong with me. Now it's just weed I'm sure you know what that is and don't forget the booze😈
Kool, 3 million negros can't be wrong.
@@maryaberilla9532 Ever since i lost my left lung ive cut my smoking in half!
@@ontarioguy4707 Sorry to hear that everyone's body is different my grandfather smoked until he was 97 also drank a half pint of whiskey everyday like i said everyone is different
This is an Amazing time capsule into the past! It jogged my memory on so many things! Thanks for posting this.
it was the innocent yrs no violence no nudity every body got along as it showed on television. bring back shows with stories this is why I watch tcm all stories
joseph siano *No violence? What do you call westerns? Every little boy had a gun pretending to shoot his friends and violence against my people were being shown in large numbers on TV*
What a wonderful compilation. Thank you!
Kent were probably my favorite cig way back when! I switched brand in my 39 years of smoking, but stayed with kent longer, than any other. Probably 20 or more years!!!! And I'm still breathing?????
Jack war Micronite filters had asbestos in them. Really. When I started smoking, KOOL was the cigarette I chose. They made a snap, crackle, pop sound. I wonder how many insects the FDA allows in tobacco? KOOL had their share, that's for sure!
Sometimes at the race track horses that are 40/1 get up and win. You sir are one of those. Many others die under 60yo from smoking.
Thank you for sharing this! What a blast from the past
The Dinah Shore Chevy commercial goes back an additional 10-11 years to about 1951.
Thanks for the videos. I remember every commercial and TV show intro. As a kid I didn't have a care in the world.
LOVED this video! I was just an itty bitty kid when these ads and shows were new, but, I still remember a lot of them. I don't know how, though. It was a lot of fun going way back into the past. Thanks!!! =)
Always with a smile and never any violence. Such a good vibe they put off back then.
The violence probably went on behind the scenes. Alot of lights being punched out. Then, they went to the Bar, and had a 🚬 cigarette and a 🍺 beer.
This makes me cry, because this was when tv made perfect sense, and there should be more like this!!!
This was wonderful thanks so much for posting i loved it
Thriller was a great series that ran on NBC from 1960-62. They sure don't make shows like that anymore.
man I never new cigarettes were so good for you, I found out the other day that getting hit in the head with an ax was refreshing
Gotta love that "Mel Torme" style Rice Crispies commercial, and Mel Blank as Frito Bandito!
I knew every word of the Frito Bandito song!! Brains are truly the strangest things.
Sadly, I can remember it as well.
This was worth looking uo, just to see Dinah Shore sing, "See the USA in Your Chevrolet"! We would sing that on the playground. It shows that a good Madison Avenue jingle, will stay with you a lifetime!
Kissmy Asta "Go, go, go Goodyear!" Six syllables, twelve notes. It will remain in our minds forever. "You can trust you car..." I bet you know the rest of the jingle.
As I understand it now Dinah Shore is a big lesbian gathering, was she a gay woman?
@@neilpower60 Burt Reynolds was hittin' that...
I remember these tv shows from my childhood. The cigarette commercials and corny car commercials.
What fun it was reliving the old TV themes and some of those commercials! Though I never smoked cigarettes, those themes were sure catchy. I remember growing up as a kid in the golden age of TV. Once in a while, I find myself singing one of those old themes!
Yeah, I remember stealing my dad' s 🚬 smokes and 🍺 beer too.Good Times.
That was fun ! Well put together and a great snapshot of the good ol' days.
What? The "good ol' days" were a consumerist nightmare! Didn't you watch the video?
i seen this back then in the 60s i was a kid
Lovely vintage television show openings and their accompanying commercials which are now banned from television viewing.
Michael Friedman people are born with or without a cancer gene i have known people who never smoked die of lung cancer
@@bobbyrupe210 True.And people who never drank got liver cancer too.
- back when it was fun to live in America.
This is one of the very best collections I’ve seen! Really evocative of that time period.
I always thought Kool referred to how hip the smoke would make you! lol
Reminds me of times the good ol times that I watched tv with my mom. I miss my mommy 😭😭😭😭😭
Robert Toe I miss my Mom too.My TV Buddy.Peace.
Anna Paulikonis why can't mom's live for ever?
@@roberttoe4612 we will see them again in heaven.Peace.
@@annapaulikonis2433 I sure hope so 😊
Hang in there buddy, there is a better world awaiting us.
All of the shows on here came out in 1962. The commercials (from their various years) were probably tossed in for the hell of it. I can't believe how many of these shows (much less the commercials) I recognized. Man, I am getting old.
Uhhh....Sorry but almost all, Cheyenne, Father Knows Best, and others, premiered in the 1950’s.
Funny to see these now...
Was a kid watching these programs and commercials on grandparents Black and White T.V.
See, smoking is good for you; It gives you a fresh mouth and clear throat. Doctors know nothing these days.
Adam Carter actually they did, just they were paid to lie.
Most doctors smoked then
Theses shows take me back to the good old days
Ah, those classic beer commercials. Hamm's & Pabst Blue Ribbon are still available. Carling's Black Label Beer is only available in Great Britain & Canada.
Not entirely TRUE. Remember seeing it on shelves in Brooklyn, mate.
So glad I grew up in the 50s and 60s.. A great time.
l remember all of these good old day's
Tku 4 Ur Post. Plan on showing this vid at 1/2 time Super Bowl Party. Tks for the memories. Now I know why I stopped smoking and lying about living in Miami Beach! (Tks and smiles)
Boy that surly brings back memories. Thank you!!!!
Yes it was TERRIBLE we had to watch TV without getting educated about every HORRIBLE side effect on the face of the earth.
there still doing it now . what killing you now , there so much going on now than ever before dork
You will need Dr, Ben Casey. When you smoke Cigarettes.
Cigarettes softened with fresh air, LOLOLOLOLOL XD
A look back of when TV was worth watching back in the 60's, despite the abundance of cigarette ads.
Loved the slinky commercial as a kid back then!
I could never get my slinky to walk down stairs that way!
@@andrewwanner6829 Yeah, two- maybe three steps and that was it. :/
Mine got tangled up and that was the end of it!
Slinky. The original let down.
I still have one from back in the day .
Beer Commercials where pretty good made me want to crack a cold one. I remember those ads
I seriously have the Pabst Blue Ribbon jingle in my head. Well, It'll be P.B.R. today 🍺!
I miss the " Fito Bandito". I used to run to the TV if I heard it.
i had to go out for a smoke after this
And a 🍺 beer too !
I do remember most of these shows/commercials. Television was great back then, yes in black n white!The horror pictures used the shadows and shades and made the TV Show/Movie very scary without even showing the deed! Many old time radio shows would use sound effects and the actors tone of voice, that would scare you into next Tuesday, they created an environment ,then let your mind take you away to cringe in fear, or to laugh! Turn the lights off!
Sugar Pops...SHOT WITH SUGAR!! Ahhh, a nice heaping bowl of sugar first thing in the morning, followed with a cigarette. Those were the days, my friend...
Dude, don't forget the 🍺 BEER !
All this does is make me feel old. LOL!!!
Thanks, that was fun!
So here we are 60 years later and the host of TPIR (Drew Carey) looks like Bill Cullen.
The Frito Bandito lol love it...
Ben Casey has a minute-and-a-half opening. It's a drama in itself.
I loved it was great brought back a lot of memories
A relative smoked Kool's and in her 50's her breathing was that of a 105 yr old woman. She died at 63 yrs old.
Kools were brutal; I only smoked them when I was hard up; I stuck with Salems and Newports. I had a friend that got hooked onto smoking UNFILTERED KOOLS. No, you don't even want to know...
My father disparagingly referred to Clint Walker as "Mushmouth" in "Cheyenne", for way he talked. Thus my brother and I would sing "Mushmouth, Mushmouth" to the tune of the show's theme song.
The intro to The Rifleman...............so homoerotic. Very appropriate.
Yep, them good ol’ days when smoking cigarettes was a refreshing and healthy habit. Wish those days would come back once more. 😉
And 🍻 Booze commercials too.
i hope you didnt stop or cut back... you should promote it... two packs a day minimum....
Bubbles LaVerne : ha ha ha
The original metal Slinky made your hands smell bad when you handled it. It would very quickly get tangled and permanently kinked and bent, and then it wouldn't move anymore.
FANTASTIC!! THANKS SO MUCH FOR POSTING THESE!
Even the commercials were good and no reality shows!!!!
Cigarettes and beer....Love it!
The good old days when smoking was healthy.😁
Brian Mcdonald Even thr family Dr smoked!
Brian Mcdonald I miss that time
Brian Mcdonald smoking was never healthy.
@@casper4722 I know, just being sarcastic, woooosh right over your head!
@@casper4722 NO SHIT GENIUS IM SURE HE WAS SERIOUS ASSHOLE
TV is nothing but ads, just like you tube today.
that's for DAMN sure!
It wasn't as bad back then as TV is now.
yep but now days tv has more adds per half hour with Brian washing in them and they over use non-whites .
I read somewhere that "Bud" on Father Knows Best regularly smoked bud.
scott goodman - more than likely since he was friendly with the band NRBQ.
Back then there was no bud, it’s was all leaves, stems and seeds.
@@charlesbaldo Not true- the Columbian, Acapulco Gold and Panama Red consisted of buds, but not as buddy as these modern strains.
back in the day 1960s
I remember The Rifleman was sponsored by Lilt Home Permanent (at least in the late '50's thru '63)
The beginning of Ben Casey always scared the crap out of me when I was a kid.
Me too!!
Absolutely! Scared me too when I was a kid!!!!!
doubledancer Now look what they have on TV to scare kids.. but nowadays, they may not even realize it.. or they've become numb to it
I thought the opening was scary too when I was just a little tyke. Dr. Kildare wasn't bad though.
The outer limits is the one that scared me!
back in the 70s i onlt earned $1.60 an hour after working at the same place for 4 years. Only made a..dime more than the new ones hired in at.
It's still like that today.
I drove my chevy to the levey!
God I was in love with Ben Casey 😃
My sister would have loved to see this. She was 7 years older than I was and she was daft about US cowboy programmes like Cheyenne and Bronco. I had to laugh though at the adverts, especially "Cool Cigarettes" - "as cool and as clean as a breath of fresh air!" Don't know what air they were breathing in - New York smog?
great memories ..😍😍😘😘😘😘😘
Can you IMAGINE a kid imitating a Gun and then the BANG BANG sound effect being aired today?? Also, notice how Drew Carey and Phil Collins look alike?? Both Price is Right hosts!! Glad to be a BOOMER!!
You mean Bill Cullen.Phil Collins was a singer in the 80's
yeah... Drew Carey was definitely channel Bill Cullen...
Kool as a breath of Fresh Air 😜☠️
hmm! my favorite cigarette !the flavour so smooth !it's gotta be good for ya !
Thank you for the feedback. You are correct, the dates were way off. I have since corrected that! Must have had to much coffee that night.
Sky blue waters...beer!...what a paradise for future diseases!
Wow so many memories
back in the day 60s i seen this when i was kid
Now I'm just going to go home drink beer and smoke cigarettes all day while watching black and white TV.
James Murray Cooooooool 😄😄😄😄😄
Sounds like a plan.
This was a much better time! God, how I wish our country was like this now! (I even like the black & white). The Eisenhower/Kennedy years: how wonderful they were!
+retrorex Bullshit. You remember what you want to.
retrorex you can thank Lyndon Johnson and his liberal cronies for giving us the "Great Society " for killing this country
It was the same less the technology & maybe more violent times.
You're right it was great as long you were not a woman, black, hispanic, gay....ShouldI go on?
George Setzer No, you should shut up. It was better for EVERYBODY.
Betty White at 7:46!!!!
Not many have been hot for most of a century!
Weird Brandi that old gal is still kicking .
My mom used to send away for a bunch of the toys on cereal box's they had for a time. My favorite and most memorable was from Frosted Flakes, a space man aprox. 1/6 scale that had a retractable line running through it to mimic space walking. The line tangled and broke in no time and I was left disappointed again. lmao.
John Osborne 😂😂😂😂😂😂
John Osborne I remember getting a little plastic submarine that you put baking soda in it then put in the bathtub or the sink.
Back in the day, I use to drink beer. And when I did it was always a Pabst Blue Ribbon. Best damn beer ever. All my friends who drank Bud and Miller use to laugh, well when they were out and I had beer, they'd sure come crawlin' wanting one of mine........
+CatfishHunter61 Pabst guy here also
We still get it at W/M in Texas, but my fav from the old days was Schlitz.
Still making PBR....What happened to Olympia....Burgermeister?
Actually....Not very good stuff compared to what I enjoy these days...
But...beer...kind of like...Do you prefer blondes, brunettes, or red heads...?
And I always say, 'YES!'
As far as I know, I'm fairly sure they still make Oly, and probably Burgermeister, those names of beer that aren't too common anymore. A couple names you don't hear of anymore because they're now defunct are Falstaff and Fall City. Have you ever heard of Old Frothingslosh (the beer with the foam at the bottom)????
Ya gotta be pullin' my leg now....and I'm pretty gullible....
Classic TV. Little or NO lip syncing. REFRESHING!
This is way before my time but it’s the time I prefer…I was born in the wrong decade
Could not help but notice the predominance of beer and cigarette ads in these old shows...wow!
