That is awesome! Of course, being a Disney freak please be on the lookout for The Torkelsons, Flash Forward, Ready or Not, or Ocean Girl episodes!!

Sounds very fun, I hope you find a lot of good stuff.

Hi....Please let me know if you have any of the following from that batch of Tapes:

Tonight Show with Johnny Carson

Late Night with David Letterman

Any other Talk Show or Variety series.

GameShowDude · 07-06-2014, 08:53 AM

Are there any game shows on those tapes?

littletydramon · 07-06-2014, 02:13 PM

Most of the tapes if not all are films taped off HBO, network channels, TNT...etc. I do not think any episodes are going to pop up but there are commercials for short-lived television shows, and I'm hoping maybe I am going to get some rare commercials that even have it popped up on YouTube... a lot of these are available on there already. ALF/Hogan Family promo, old Roseanne promo, etc. right now the tape I am watching is of TNT's old monstervision marathons and it's a marathon of the outer limits. pretty neat to see it since my family wouldn't have even had tnt for a few years, but it looks like a lot of this has already been archived and is available on YouTube or general information with a Google search.

this would be so much easier if I just had a big list of all the television shows that are available in the tradeing circuit.

If you come across any TBS stuff, I'd be more than interested.

jade88 · 07-08-2014, 07:38 PM

I'm very interested in that WWF taping, i don't have that Main Event and need it. Does it have commercials?

jade88 · 07-08-2014, 07:42 PM

Anything Nickelodeon or kids in general would peak my interest too!

In my opinion, you should save everything. Anything that is on Youtube can be deleted at any time. (It's good for the rights holders, but bad for others.) I've seen it happen repeatedly. Also, I don't mind having the same airings from different affiliates. It's kind of interesting.

The whole "trading circuit" thing isn't entirely true. I have some specific recordings that were not traded often or even at all.

if there is any sporting events as well LMK

Frank Gannucci · 07-11-2014, 03:49 PM

Please, please, please. If you have some Color Honeymooners episodes, please let me know. Thank you. The ones that I am looking for the short sketches from the 1968-1969 season as well as "The Incredibel World of Ed Norton", that unlike the rest have not seen the light of day since the 60s/70s

BeatleMoe · 07-11-2014, 05:45 PM

Do you have any Rescue 911?

stanwyckfan07 · 07-14-2014, 10:35 AM

I'm interested in program taped off the Nashville Network 1983-99 particularly The Grand Ole Opry and Nashville Now and similiar shows.

tvtimemachine225 · 07-14-2014, 11:41 AM

Sounds like you've stumbled upon something great! If you happen to come across anything taped from Nickelodeon or the Disney Channel, I would be interested!
