1979, my senior year in high school I watched the match game in the afternoons... So many great memories here... In cold blood was an excellent movie and book. Back then they put movies like that on late.. We had a 1980 Chevy Citation my mom and I drove it. I liked it
Alpha Beta- When that man's parrot squawked after the man made the comment about how supermarket contests "ruffle their feathers", I like to think that the parrot laughed in his parrot language at that. - I like how the varying VHS distortion throughout this video makes the experience more and more interesting.
1:00--I agree that the electronic music in the TV Guide commercial is very similar to that used in the "In The News" segments that ran on CBS during Saturday morning cartoons back then. 2:00--As of 2022, this is one of several incarnations of the Match Game that are being rerun on Buzzr, a retro game show network available over the air in many parts of the country. This segment also features the unmistakable voice of Johnny Olson, a popular announcer on many Goodson-Todman game shows right up to his death in the mid-80's. 7:19--The original Battlestar Galactica, which has rerun on-and-off on Me TV's Saturday night sci-fi block in recent years. 10:03--Campbell's still makes some of these soups, but I believe they phased out the Manhandlers brand some time ago.
1:00 - This music in this TV Guide commercial just doesn't really fit. It sounds like it belongs in a Sci-Fi commercial, or one of those books about the unexplained.
TV Guide-"trying to clean up sex on television"..theyre still trying to do that to this day 🙄 Delta House-had this show been made today it wouldve maybe aired on HBO Max..r.i.p Ivan Reitman Alpha Beta-w/ Alan Hamel a.k.a Mr Suzanne Sommers In Cold Blood-TERRIFYING!!! Battlestar Galactica-glad those "space spirits" didnt show up in the reboot The Jericho Mile-poor guy got done wrong ☹ KABC Eyewitness News Bumper-probably not the best way to follow up from a airline commercial Campbell's Manhandlers Soup-soup with fried chicken sounds good @14:12 "Chevy Citaaaa-TION!!!"
While they could ticket you for drinking and operating a boat, I can’t see the police arresting you for having a cooler of unopened beers. The guy in the commercial never even opens the beer or takes a sip.
I wasnt born yet but i thoroughly enjoy these 70' s commercials. I actually watch match game on buzzr 😊

Remembering (and even watching) the Saturday Night Movie on WABC, even KABC had their own memorable Saturday Night Movies with the Len Beardsley V/O!

That is Alan Hamel- Susanne Somers husband.
The tracking on the VHS recording makes the Matchgame host’s mic hand resemble the baddie from Robocop after he gets covered in radioactive waste
He is just holding it weird. The video artifacts here aren't due to "tracking". These were almost certainly recorded with an antenna source.
I believe that’s the same minister at 1:03 who tried also to get ‘Three’s Company’ cancelled.
How eerie ..the Robert Blake clip he being asked why did you kill her? Just for the hell of it!😮
4:14 -"I keep a random parrot in my kitchen just to emphasize how much these things ruffle my feathers!"
🎶 "It's the first Chevy of the 80s!" 🎶 (Very catchy!)
There are so many great moments here.
1:53 - Mark's mustache hangs off so much, it looks like it's going to blow off his face with a gentle breeze.
1979, my High School graduation year!
@5:20 I guess a few years later he only needed a computer (wow all that paperwork)

I was 6 years old.
miss TV Guide
9:21 - Odd choice of music here, playing an instrumental of "Jesus Christ: Superstar" in the background.
1:00 - This music in this TV Guide commercial just doesn't really fit. It sounds like it belongs in a Sci-Fi commercial, or one of those books about the unexplained.
It reminds me of the similarly weird "In The News" music heard on CBS Saturday Mornings.
I was a senior in High School on this date
Why a man has a soccer ball on the boat with him while fishing, I have no clue. lol
TV Guide-"trying to clean up sex on television"..theyre still trying to do that to this day 🙄
Delta House-had this show been made today it wouldve maybe aired on HBO Max..r.i.p Ivan Reitman

8:57 Lol at "Tayna" Tucker.
I had an 81 Citation. Terrible car!!!
Next time you're out solo in your tiny fishing boat, bring a whole cooler of Natural and have fun getting ticketed and arrested!
While they could ticket you for drinking and operating a boat, I can’t see the police arresting you for having a cooler of unopened beers. The guy in the commercial never even opens the beer or takes a sip.
I forgot that small cars were being promoted back then because of the gas shortage. Wouldn't work today cause people are more stubborn.
