37. "The Dummies" (Also no idea. There were also a few random bits from Stand Up comedians that aired during this block that ran for over 5 minutes. This era of Nick At Nite was kind of weird and experimental)
38. Nick At Nite Station ID

Watching this makes me realize that the new shows I was watching at the time are now as old as these were back then.
Watching this block of “Nick At Nite” commercials from the 80’s, I can really get a good sense of how different and honestly in my opinion, much better “Nick At Nite” was back then compared to how it is nowadays. Care was certainly put into the programming with the variety of shows that were shown and not just reruns of one show shown throughout the night outside of special occasion marathons. It certainly was worth watching back then to see shows that are true classics, stand the test of time and not get old watching the same reruns of again and again.
Good Manners and You reminds me of one of my favorite MST3K quotes from when they were watching a short called A Date with Your Family…”A violent argument erupts over who’s day was more pleasant”.
Looking at these ads/ bumpers, the Nintendo advertising in the 80s/ 90s makes a lot more sense. All the ads I'd see in comics and on TV as a kid looked like these black and white shows. I loved those ads 🙂
When Nick at Nite had Laugh In, SCTV and 70s SNL. A true golden age.
This is gold! I'm going to see if I can find that Olympic shirt next time I go thrifting.
1988 MTV VMAs - Arsenio Hall hosted this award show a year before his talk show debuts
I miss the classic TV nostalgia that used to largely define Nick-at-Nite. That then shifted to TV Land and now both are far beyond that, as I can see from looking at their schedules. At this point, I stepped away from much of the prime-time network TV shows as I got interested in Nick-at-Nite. I remember being saddened to look up Donna Reed in my encyclopedia and learning she had already died in 1986.
OMG... my Mom LOVED Nick at Nite. I used to watch I Love Lucy and the Patty Duke show with her all the time... I haven't really been able to watch either since she passed.
Maaan I miss this age of Nick at Nite commercials.
My best friend growing up actually had those Mysteries of the Unknown books. I don’t know if he was a conspiracy kook. I just know he had every Masters of the Universe toy and Nintendo game, so I hung out there a lot.
the weird local commercials (I mean from the looks of it it's gotta be) and the two bits at the end make me glad youtube channels like this exist!
I watched the SNL marathon I appeared insane by the time it ended!!!!
Yeah by the time they were showing "reruns" from the 80s on Nick at Nite in the late 90s, I was also done with that! The late 80s and early 90s were the best time to watch! When Mr. Ed, Car 54 & Donna Reed cured all of society's ills! Awesome Time-Life book ad. All we need is the one from that series that goes "read the book!" The "High Band" interstitial took place in Victoria, British Columbia, Canada. I did some searching and the Times Colonist is a local newspaper and it's in front of the McGill & Orme Pharmacy on 649 Fort St. (no longer there) I wish I had more information on this!
god i miss this era
That High Band commercial is going to drive me crazy. I’d love to know what it was. I’m guessing it was some kind of local tv or radio show, but it’s weird how little information they give. I love seeing commercials from late at night and seeing them get weirder and cheaper.

The name "High Band" is most likely referring to the high band signal of VHF or UHF so it was very possibly a local TV show on UHF. Hard to know for sure what region this was even recorded in, given that there are no other local ads present. Edit: It could also just be a brief interstitial to introduce the educational film that follows it?
Geez what’s with these bumpers!? “The ice caps are melting!” “The sun is a dying star!” “Your goldfish are dead!” That’s enough TV shows! Think I’ll play a Nintendo game! “You and your friends are dead! Game over!”

They're all dead... Everybody's dead... Everybody's dead, Dave! .... .... Are your tryin' to tell me that everybody's dead?
Nick At Nite Station ID-that 10 score must be for the impact she made on the pavement My Three Sons-what if they want to watch Mr T's new show SCTV-featuring (the very funny) Martin Short High Band-"Crack Is Wack"? 😆
Country roads, take me home! To the decades when I belong! 1980s, 1990s! Take me home, country roads! 😄😐😞😥
I’m pretty sure I have a video tape recorded with the exact same commercials during Nick at Night from 1988. My dad used to record SCTV and the best of SNL.
The segments at the end.. I've watched those recently on another channel. It's like the two subjects I subscribe to combined
The guy playing "Burt Sawyer" at 07:26 10:57 13:00 and 14:00 is actor Geoff Pierson. Well known to all 90s kids and teens as lovable looser Jack Malloy on UnHappily Ever After, the fledgling WB network's wannabe Married... With Children.

Geoff Pierson was on Grace under fire as Jimmy, grace ex husband.
It stated that Frawley resented Demarest for replacing him on the sitcom. It got so bad, apparently Frawley was banned from the set of My Three Sons

Frawley was a drunk and rarely got along with co-stars, but I don't think there is any evidence for that anecdote about him being banned from the set and the original source of it seems to be an unverified post in the trivia section for "My Three Sons" on IMDB. He had to leave the show in 1964 after failing to pass a health insurance physical, making his poor health a liability for the studio.
What the heck was their thing against Mr. T? The tester guy talks about the machine eating him for breakfast, then the line about him having a new show?

Those fools at Nick at Nite just hate being pitied I guess.
Hey @80scommericalvault did you watch tvland in 2000/2001? I saw the comment you made about where you stopped watching Nick at Nite in commercial desc[ptions.

Never had TV Land or any other premium channels growing up so it wasn’t really an option. Probably would have enjoyed it after Nick at Nite went south.
