Dec 31 '75 - Growing up not far from Boston, the Boston Pops always seemed like a local thing. It was when I got older that I learned they were recognized nationwide. Tonight you get the Pops or Guy Lombardo to bring you into 1976 #TVGuide #OTD #1970s TV #1970s

Dec 30 '76 - New shows about to begin include 'Fish,' 'Grizzly Adams, ' & a few special eps of 'Wonder Woman.' And I never realized 'The Brady Bunch Variety Hour' was in a rotation w 'Nancy Drew/Hardy Boys Mysteries' #TVGuide #OTD #1970s TV #1970s

Dec 28 '74 - How is it that every project involving OJ Simpson done before 1994 seems to have a semi-ironic title? I'm sure 'Juice on the Loose' seemed harmless enough at the time... #TVGuide #OTD #1970s TV #1970s

Dec 27 '01 - In its 3rd season, 'Survivor' was still riding high on its novelty. All seasons currently stop airing mid-December, but this season was only at the Final 6. The finale wouldn't air until Jan 10 '02 #TVGuide #OTD #2000s TV #2000s

Dec '74 - A few thoughts on this Columbia House ad. 20th anniversary? They started the record club in '54? And most of us remember the 8 tracks/ tapes/ records, but did you know they sold all of these as reel-to-reels as well? #TVGuide #OTD #1970s TV #1970s

Dec 26 '89 - Now that Christmas is done, it's time to start counting down to the New Year. Tonight we get 2 looks at the entire decade. Both look compelling, and I'd watch either one #TVGuide #OTD #1980s TV #1980s

Dec 25 '89 - Quality TV equates to quality grape juice. When you think Christmas, think Welch's Purple Grape Juice. And when you think retro TV Guides, think of Ponch's Disco-Rama. Merry Christmas, everyone!! #TVGuide #OTD #1980s TV #1980s

Dec 25 '87 - Which would you choose? A Christmas parade from Disney World featuring Alan Thicke & Joan Lunden or the Hollywood parade w Bob Eubanks, Lee Meriwether, Ernest Borgnine & Rosanna Arquette #TVGuide #OTD #1980s TV #1980s

Dec 25 '86 - These World Trade Center ads still get me. Who wouldn't want 'Chuckles with Saint Nick on the Observation Deck'? #TVGuide #OTD #1980s TV #1980s

Dec 25 '80 - VCRs still were a luxury item in many homes, so this ad for MVC was a surprise. Bigger surprise? You could get these in either VHS or Beta II #TVGuide #OTD #1980s TV #1980s

Dec 24 - With all of the great moments to screengrab from 'Rudolph, the Red-Nosed Reindeer,' it seems crazy that CBS has used the same image in their ads since at least the 70s. These listings are from '77, '89, '98 & '99. #TVGuide #OTD #1970sTV #1980sTV #1990sTV #Rudolph

Dec 24 '80 - Usually, I'd say the Mouse King from 'The Nutcracker' was one of the creepiest things related to Christmas. Given what we've learned about Bill Cosby though, anything to do with Fat Albert may take the crown #TVGuide #OTD #1980s TV #1980s

Dec 23 '97 - Technically The Hallmark Channel didn't start until 2001, but you could present the #TVGuide pitch for 'I'll Be Home for Christmas,' and it would fit perfectly on the channel today. Plus Jack Palance! #OTD #1990s TV #1990s
