The unofficial Sitcoms Online video thread!!

[Brad Russ]

This is a thread Iv'e been thinking about starting for awhile now, and I really hope it catches on. I, and I'm sure many others here, are really into online video, so I thought, why not share some of your favorite videos that we've either downloaded, or found at some website, and post it here, so others can see it. It can be funny, scary, surprising, sad, emotional, inspirational, shocking, movie trailers, or whatever other kinds of videos you can find. If you do decide to post a link to a video, please make sure that the content, and any website that may be holding the content, is PG-13 or less, because I'd hate for this thread to be closed.

Also, I found a cool site awhile back where you play a video, and rate it on how much you liked it from 1 to 10, so if anyone wants to rate any of the video that's provided, please do. Anyway, I really hope that people will respond to this, because I think it can be an awful lot of fun. There are some really good online vids out there!!

I'll get this thread rolling!!

if you are one of us who believes MTV has gone downhill and is beyond saving today... here is 60 minutes of actual MTV programming recorded in what looks to be around September 1982. In the two videos, you see videos from the likes of Santana, Pat Benatar, The Who, Rick Springfield and Duran Duran (I didn't realize Hungry Like The Wolf was getting airplay this early, considering the song became a hit on the charts in early 1983)

we see vintage Martha Quinn and the late J.J. Jackson here too, along with vintage 1982 commercials, including a plug for Rush's "Signals" album, a definate hoot for fans of the 80's. I only hope this guy loads up even more classic MTV

This is truly some good stuff.

In the Dutch tv-program 'Kopspijkers' (which had over 3 million people watching every week, which is remarkably if you consider there are 'only' 16 million people living in this country) they once imitated George Bush. No, it's not an anti-American program. They have imitated almost everyone, from the Pope to our queen, from Vladimir Putin to our prime-minister.

It's all in English, of course, (but with Dutch subtitles), so you can watch it too if you'd like. It was made and aired almost a year ago, when Bush was just (re-)elected and touring through Europe to brush up his reputation. The imitation is done by the Dutch cabaret artist Thomas van Luyn.

You can watch it here:
http://variatee.vara.nl/kopspijkers/...pijkers.player
You have to scroll down a little and then click on 'George Bush'. It plays in Windows Media Player. You can enlarge the screen.

(The only Dutch thing he says is 'Strafhof', which is the UN International Criminal Court in The Hague. The joke 'Jan Peter what's his name' is a shot at our prime-minister.)

I think many people will already know this site (either from own experience or maybe my sig), but I *have* to mention it. Both Republican- and Democrats-smacking going on in a funny way here:

Those were some cool videos HUNG UP. Thanks for posting the links!! It made me feel like I was in a time warp or something. It was awesome hearing You Gotta Nother Thing Coming, and Land Down Under. I love those songs. I'll check out the Whitney Houston thing, as well as the video Fonzarelli contributed tomorrow. I'll post some more good stuff too. Thanks again for the great links guys. Please keep them coming!!

in a way, it's almost kinda depressing to see how far down the toilet MTV's gone. It's sad that we're now discovering a generation of teenagers who have no recollection of "growing up" with artists and their music videos. Those of us who were kids in the 80's and early 90's grew up with a bunch of icons and remember where we were the first time we saw their videos, yet MTV doesn't give a crap about music anymore and all they show now are a bunch of crappy reality shows that have nothing to do with music (has Newlyweds ever focused on Nick or Jessica's music?) and are mostly loaded with a bunch of 19 year olds who are attractive but have no personality. MTV gets higher ratings now because frankly more people have cable, but MTV actually scored a higher percentage of cable viewers during it's peak, roughly around 1982-1995

I swear, if I inherited MTV, I would axe all the reality shows and bring it back to "music videos 24 hrs long" again so younger generations will have their versions of Michael Jackson, Madonna, Guns N Roses and Nirvana. Even someone who is highly popular these days like Kelly Clarkson has hardly received the video airplay that an artist with four top 10's off one album should be receiving.

I can't check these out until I'm on my home computer. Are these streaming or downloadable video files?

just streamable, it was taped off MTV on some Friday night (since they were talking about a Saturday night concert by the Outlaws the next day) around I'm presuming August or September 1982 given some of the "evidence" on it, there's music videos like Hungry Like The Wolf, Down Under, Pat Benatar's You Better Run, Santana's Hold On, Rick Springfield's Don't Talk To Strangers and some others, along with Martha Quinn and J.J. Jackson talking about Billy Squier (ROFL!!!) and Duran Duran.

I'd like to see some more "classic" MTV circa 1981-1996 on there. It all went to hell when they moved to Times Square

here is a vintage, hard-to-find music video that I'm damn near convinced she is likely pissed off that traces of this video are still in existence and not all burned, since she has never released it on any of her video collections and the video likely hasn't been aired in 25 years (it was made in 1979).

Here's a weird video of Crispin Glover freaking out on The Letterman show. I'm thinking he must have been on drugs or something.

Here's a touching one that was originally posted by Janice, and I thought I'd post it again for anyone who might have missed it. It has to do with losing a pet. Very touching video!!
