It's a bit confusing being nostalgic about a late 1980s TV show, that in itself was based on nostalgia for the 1960s.

It makes me think of this:

[Uncle Cr33pin]

One of the all-time greatest live vocal performances of a masterpiece. Such a pity the synths are a bit buried in the mix.

A long time ago, I remember staying up late on a school day to watch this, when the BBC did a late night broadcast.

Twin Image - My Baby Loves Me (1984)

 

[JoeChill]

One of the weirdest, yet most memorable, commercials ever. Hershey's 1989 Whatchamacallit commercial:

 

[God's lonely asperger]

Been listening to a ton of Supertramp these days. Probably my favorite band.

My recent 80s favorite:

 

[Uncle Cr33pin]

 

[JCSteel]

One of the 80's best examples of weird. Michael Jackson's older brother had a few decent records in the 80s; I never realized how bizarre the music video was.

 

[El Dorado]

One of the weirdest, yet most memorable, commercials ever. Hershey's 1989 Whatchamacallit commercial:

Hmmm, yes, I remember seeing ads for this on TV but I never remember seeing these for sale in Canada back in the day...

Yeah, the whole family was weird. I remember reading online years ago that psycho-Dad Joe used to forbid the kids to sleep with their bedroom windows open. If they did, he would put on a scary monster mask, crawl in through their window and terrorize them in the dead of night. Jerk that I am, I love scaring kids as much as the next guy, but that kind of stuff is bound to give any youngster a complex.
