      @@francishunt562 @Francis Hunt True, the 70s stagflation was the worst economic downturn in the US since the Great Depression and only got beat by the Great Recession of the 2000s-2010s. The UK and other countries had similar downturns as well. Some Asian countries like Japan experienced a boom thanks to rapid deindustrilization in the west that allowed them to take over manufacturing but between numerous wars in the 60s and 70s, a delayed recession after the post WW2 boom, the oil crisis, a crash of several industries, and increased automation of many jobs there was a rather severe economic slump across much of the world. IIRC the 70s was also when the Soviets started to stall and stagnate after mostly keeping pace with the West and they pretty much plateaued into the 80s and 90s.

      Oh l agree.When you look at old footage on the T.V. you think WTF??!!!! I have come to the conclusion that you can't properly remember the seventies unless you were at least born in the early sixties rather than the late sixties like u and I.The punk explosion in the UK I barely remember.Your looking at those years through a child's eyes.There was a BBC documentary featuring Boy George who was about six or seven years older than me and his recollections were completely different from mine because he was a teenager.The various tribes(punks,tedd's, skinhead's) could be incredibly violent towards each other on the street.Football violence was rife.It's not just about remembering children's T.V.

    • @arthas640
      @arthas640 2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      It's because there's too many options now. That's also why news has become so sensationalist and "clickbaity", in the 70s even in a massive economic powerhouse like the US chances are you'd read a local paper and watch a single news station and you'd only have a few to choose from so without having to worry about a ton of competition the news could focus on giving facts to a wide range of people. Today there are social media sources, influencers, TH-cam channels, international news sources, and dozens of news channels to choose from all competing for a country that's only 50% larger, meaning you've got 5000% more news sources competing for 150% of the available watchers. Many "news anchors" have even legally claimed to be entertainers and not journalists because they have to sensationlize everything to such a degree their more actors then reporters.

    • @arthas640

      The hilarious thing is people say the same thing about every generation. My great grandparents hated it when women had hair too far past their shoulders or if men had hair longer then a couple inches, they thought hippies were the scum of the earth, and that pot was ruining the whole world. My grandparents thought that men with hair down to their shoulders or any facial hair beyond a tightly groomed mustache was disgusting and that mustaches were "a little too European", and they thought that rock and roll promoted sex and drugs which were corrupting the morals of the youth and that the whole counter culture movement was weakening the country and opening the door to the communists. My parents thought that heavy metal and grunge promoted devil worship and drugs and were responsible for all the school shootings and that later hip hop and rap caused gang violence. I cant remember people complaining about how Bart Simpson glorified disrespecting your elders way back in the early 90s and people even tried to get the show canceled over it. Watch old movies and you'll see the same thing: people of parenting or grandparenting age complaining about "kids these days and their corrupted morals", doesnt matter if it's a film from the 50s, 70s, 90s, or today.
      This attitude even predates film, there accounts of nobles in the middle ages complaining that all the rules in jousting (which used to be a free for all where knights would even kill each other on purpose, attack random spectators, and focus more on stealing horses or equipment from each other then sport) were making warriors of the day weak and effeminate. A few leaders in the 1800s thought that society needed regular wars because they thought that not joining the military lead to young men becoming weak, effeminate, partying, and not gaining proper values and discipline. in the 1700s people even tried to get couches banned because they thought young people were spending too much time sitting, laying down, or sleeping and that it was leading to them being lazy and would lead to too much sex and erode their morals.

      The 70s did have a ton of crap (serious look at a lot of the animation from the era) but did have plenty of good stuff too. People tend to suffer from "nostalgia filters" since after 20+ years people tend to quiet airing reruns, making copies, or remembering any bad movies/tv shows/music but the good stuff stays around and gets remembered so after a few decades people mostly just remember the best a decade produced.

      And they didn't feel the need to warn us about every little thing before a programme starts, just in case someone gets offended or upset, and that's before 9pm. Grrrr! That's one of my biggest peeves of today.

    Ha! Someone bought me a pair of klackers then, though I've never heard them being called miracle klackers before. Some had plastic one's but mine were glass, like very large green marbles, and the only miracle I can recall about them was that I never sustained a broken arm using them. Plenty of bruises though. Crazy things that probably wouldn't be allowed nowadays and deemed too dangerous.

      True, I've heard stories of the glass ones shattering and spraying kids with broken glass or the string breaking and hitting people. Get a 1 inch giant glass marble going at high speed and the thing is like a weapon, it's essential like a sling and if a sling can kill Goliath it can do a decent amount of damage to a kid. I had a set of them as a kid in the 90s but they later had 2 separate strings (which were more of a high strength plastic like fishing line) for each ball so if 1 broke it wouldnt go flying and they were made with smaller balls that were a more lightweight plastic and by the early 2000s they had rigid plastic arms.

    When did they colorize Spiderman?
    He was on a 19" B/W when I watched it! 😁
    Matter of fact all these shows were black and white!
    Except of course not the British stuff that I never saw in the states.
    Love Boat was followed by Fantasy Island.
    Left out Star Trek the movie, and The Muppet Movie.
    Hawaiian Punch doesn't make many of these compilations either.
    Loved my Big Wheel, and I had the Eagle ship from Space 1999, but my Mom sold it at a yard sale!😢
