      ​@@gigi9301Well when you were a kid, it would start for me anyway a little after 🎃Halloween🎃. Then the Thanksgiving holiday season would start. But one thing that always got kids revved up for 🎄Christmas🎄, the JC Penny's Christmas Catalog and the Sears Wish Book. Those would come out in mid October if I remember correctly. I remember many nights when I'd sit upstairs in my bed, 🔦flashlight🔦 on under my blankets paging through the Penny's Christmas Catalog. Not just toys, but every single page. I used to love looking for stuff for my Mom, Dad, and especially my Grandpa and Grandma. Then the holiday television specials. Charlie Brown's the Great Pumpkin, the Muppets, and all the other specials. The city would start to light up. Trees everywhere illuminated in many colors. We had a city block called Candy Cane Lane where EVERY SINGLE house would decorate their homes in elaborate ways. Now it's so big overhead planes can see it as they come into Milwaukee. Church always was special leading up to Christmas as well. After Thanksgiving and up until Christmas Day it was always one of the best times. I agree that Christmas didn't really kick in until after Thanksgiving. Your right about that. But kids see things a bit differently...lol.

    Is it just me or has 🎄Christmas🎄lost it's special feeling? Not just as a kid either, but overall it seems as though Christmas doesn't have that special feeling that the 70's, 80's, and 90's had. Everything was better, the television shows, the ambience of the stores, the food was much better it seemed, and it just felt a lot more special. Especially for me as a kid. There was the JC Penny's Christmas Catalog and the Sears Wish Book. That stretch between 🎃👻Halloween👻🎃 to 🦃🦃Thanksgiving🦃🦃, then that long stretch until Christmas Day! There were all of the classics, It's a Great 🎃Pumpkin🎃 Charlie Brown. Then of course there was the Grinch from Dr.Suess, ⛄☃️Frosty the⛄Snowman☃️⛄, the legendary Rudolph the Red🔴Nosed🦌Reindeer🦌, a Charlie Brown Christmas 🎄and a few others. Everything was set around that day. Now it just seems to have lost it's luster?

      No, it's definitely not just you. I recently turned 56, so I was a child, growing up in the 70s, and Christmas seemed a lot more special back then. Well, the whole holiday season did (Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Eve and Day).
      Even Black Friday has lost its luster, since a lot of stores start running specials before Thanksgiving, there's no anticipation for BF.

      ​@@kurthanke5788 I absolutely agree!! Online shopping's played a large part in destroying the magic of the Christmas season. It was about being festive and dressing up, now you've got people going to the store in pajamas. Toys are made so cheaply now, and corporate greed's at an all time high. Not only that, just about everything's loaded with social justice or political propaganda in some form. It's just sad. Those days were a lot more wholesome.

  • @jsa6261

    Apologies to all of the other great Christmas commercial mixes on RUclips, but this one has to be the best. Its certainly my favorite. As others have noted, there is just something special and comforting about these commercials. Maybe it's the nostalgia, maybe it was a simpler time for many of us when we had fewer cares/worries. The build-up to Christmas in the80s was just so magical. There was no streaming and therefore TV was SO important. I would read the newspaper tv listings (or tv guide) to find all of the Christmas tv shows/specials, and circle them to be sure not to miss anything. Even though my life rarely resembled the images in many of these commercials (we never had a fireplace!), it was always a special time depicted (family....lots of food...and warmth in the house). As someone stated already, I had no idea that when I was watching these commercials IN the 80s, it would the best time of my life (and I didn't realize it). Even the commercials promoting the Christmas specials were amazing. Positive vibes for all out there who are watching this video and reading this comment. Peace.

    What's really weird is that back in the day Christmas was only celebrated for about 3 weeks or so AFTER Thanksgiving. Today, retailers and corporations are ramming it down our throats for half a year and Hobby Lobby has Christmas stuff out most of the year. They're even doing Christmas and even Halloween sales now in the middle of summer. Too much greed and FOMO has killed the spirit of Christmas that you see in these commercials.

    this past holiday season I had a real rough time getting into Christmas because not just what's going on in the world but there was little to nothing on television to remind me it was Christmas time. No christmas commercials just holiday commercials to hint to us that it's christmas. Little to no christmas shows on television just the same 10 boring movies they air every year because they have to. For me personally it was one of the worst seasons I have ever seen in my life. Christmas back in the 80's and 90's and even in the 2000's was really something. It used to be magical .

    Christmas specials, department store displays, firehouse/storefront train layouts, bonfires at the Christmas tree stand, last minute hustle and bustle on Christmas Eve, catalogs...what happened? I would just say it's nostalgia, I'm just remembering the warmth of my youth. But I argue that a massive change has taken place in the last 20 or so years. I hate to sound this way but it's yet another piece of culture that the last couple generations have inherited and set fire to.

    This collection is great. The video is great quality, but the audio is even better. How were you able to get such good audio from a VHS tape? I have multiple SVHS players, but the tapes are so old there is serious degradation. I clean up the audio in Davinci Resolve, but I can't get it anywhere near this clear. Were these from tapes digitized a long time ago? Either way, amazing job on the collection.
