    I do still remember this I was just 9 years old then and now I'm 51. I tried to wait just to watch this during those times. I have witnessed the very first time of televising the dance fever on tv with deney terio. My mother keeps asking me what am I waiting for😁 and I said "dance fever". And 8 years after I became a dancer on television with the group. What an ambition😁.

      Me! Saturday nights growing up in South Louisiana during the 1970s, I always watched "The Love Boat" and "Fantasy Island," followed by news and then "Dance Fever," "Sha Na Na" and the late night mystery movie on WBRZ Ch. 2 (either the Sherlock Holmes or Charlie Chan movies). Good times!

    ....this AMAZES me, because, I was THERE...- not REEEALLY 'there', but, Old enough, to remember this time- and, even in DECEMBER of 1979, this style of disco dancing was soooo 'dated'.....This aired on Sundays, at 7:30pm, on WPIX, in NYC, and, it was HUGE! ...I feel soooo bad for Denny Terrio...if "DF" premiered, Jan. 1978, it would've become a CLASSIC kitsch TV Show....not grasping for straws, Sept. of 1979.....

    • @deputay
      @deputay  3 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      For a show "grasping at straws" at the end of the 70s, the fact that it remained on the air until 1987 isn't all bad. Of course, some parts of the show are at the mercy of the contestants & their musical choices...

      Kind of. Yes the Disco Sucks disaster happened months before and the 4 on the floor beats became less common but u don't just 'kill' an entire genre overnight lol. The late 70s Disco sound was still huge in Europe in the early 80s and still to a hit/miss degree on US radio. But up untill around '83 the classic Disco sound lingered. By 84/85 yup...was totally over.

      @@michaelglenn367 in the United States disco was pretty much dead as a genre as far as the radio was concerned by the end of 1980. Dance music never died and many feel the night clubs got better but look at the charts. For example, Chic were huge in 1978 and 1979 and look at them in 1980 struggling to get a hit.
