    Old Local TV

    I really enjoy watching old local TV clips from the 80s and 90s. I found a few neat ones today:

    Channel 2 News at 6:00, circa 1985:

    Channel 4 Live at Five, circa early 80s:

    Nobody Beats the Wiz Christmas sale with Joe Namath:

    This isn't local, but it's awesome...a commercial for an appetite suppressant called "Ayds" from 1982, before the public became aware of AIDS. "Ayds helped me get back into a size 12.":

    Nice, I remember the Action News, not old enough to remember the others.

    Though this is recent, remember the roller derby of the mid 80's?
    And I, I took the path less traveled by
    and that has made all the difference......yet...
    I have a feeling a handle of people are going to be very interested in what I post in the near future.

    On WPIX-11, does anyone remember "Shocktober"? They always put horror movies and stuff on around Halloween.
