Amazing Discoveries - Magic Wand - 1990

Ойын-сауық

“Amazing Discoveries” was a late-night insomniac fueled INFOMERICAL! Before the internet, Before QVC, and Before Billy Maze … Mike Levy (1948 - 2003,) was “America’s Pitch Man” for products “As Seen On TV” you see in today’s retail.
Most of these clips aired between 1989 - 1992 when cable networks signed off the air at midnight!

    Back in the day this was amazing. Now it's just an immersion blender.

    Ian Long was classic. My college buddy and I would stay up late after doing homework to watch Amazing Discoveries and crack up goofing on these guys.

    When I was a kid, these shows would come up after cartoons on Saturdays. I was so innocent back then I didn't even realize that it was a commercial! This one had several competitors, most notably the Daily by Kitchenmate, There was the Fingerhut Wok from Red China, The Snakmaster that made the triangular foods, The salsa maker, and the classic mandoline slicers that went by many names.

    I knew the Mr. Show "Thrilling Miracles" sketch was making fun of infomercials, but I didn't realize just how much direct influence they took from a specific infomercial until seeing this.

    So this amazing discovery is a stick blender with different attachments, now no one has ever made one of them before? (Bamix patented the first one in 1950) Plus the bloke sounds like a market seller. So not an amazing discovery, something that you could discover just by walking into any shop that sells cooking equipment. Still these infomercials are interesting to watch, more to point out the BS than anything else!
