Also in 1970, Nanny and the Professor starring Juliet Mills and Richard Long and The Partridge Family starring Shirley Jones and David Cassidy both premiered on ABC.
Those programs were much anticipated each week, the ladies Mills and Joan's were most certainly easy on the eye. 🇳🇿👍
Elsewhere in television, July 31 gave us the final edition of The Huntley-Brinkley Report (with Chet Huntley in New York City & David Brinkley in Washington, DC) on NBC, and on September 21, Monday Night Football debuted in Cleveland on ABC (Cleveland Browns 31, New York Jets 21)
Thanks for mentioning Nanny and the Professor - this little classic is often overlooked, regrettably.
I’m still looking for episodes of Nanny and the Professor somewhere in TV Land .Help anyone?

In September of 1970, "The Flip Wilson Show" premiered on NBC-TV.
Yes. Great show.
I graduated from HS in 1970; we drove around in a '65 Olds, listened to 8 track tapes .. a lot of Led Zeppelin and the Stones. People were free spirited and friendly, still in the Woodstock spirit. The best of times.
I was born in 1970, in Georgia. I'm really enjoying these flashback videos by year. Naturally, I have no recollection of 1970, but, it's pretty cool to see what was going on in the world at the time my parents were unaware they were going to have twins rather than one baby.😬
I was born in 70 and I am a twin too.
And on May 8, 1970, the Beatles released their final studio album Let it Be.
It's AMAZING to consider what The Beatles contributed to rock/pop music in a scant 10 years! 🤯
I always thought it was Abbey Road which I still own.
@@jamesslick4790 more like 7 actually
@@jaldav let it be was last.
@@spol 1960-1970 was ten (or am I too HIGH?!?)
Also in 1970: The Beatles broke up, Diana Ross left the Supremes, and the Doonesbury comic strip by Garry Trudeau debuted in newspapers.
And I started the 1st grade. He didn’t mention THAT.
@@keithwilson6060 And in 1970 was the first airing of the classic Rankin-Bass Christmas special "Santa Claus is Comin' to Town".
@@keithwilson6060 I entered 3rd in '70. Amazing that it is forgotten in the scope of history! Hmmph ,This NIXON guy got all the "press" but I never get mentioned AT ALL for mastering my "times (multiplication) tables" Trust ME, that's been way more useful in my life than the dang 'ol EPA. 😜
@@jamesslick4790 Nixon was a puppet, as were the other people mentioned in this clip. It's the puppet masters behind the scenes -- people like you and Darryl -- who controlled the world and did so without fanfare. Thank you for your service. You'll be recognized in due time.
@@t-bo2734 Me and Darryl STILL control the WORLD. Bhah ha ha hah.
At the 1970 World Gymnastics Championship in Yugoslavia, Kathy Rigby became the very first American girl to win the silver medal in the individual balance beam competition.
I graduated high school in 1970. Good times for me then.
No doubt there was a lot of sadness in the world, but nothing like today.
Nothing like today? We had discrimination in the Deep South, riots in the cities, a war we had no business fighting that Nixon was escalating, deep poverty, Kent State, Jackson State, the economy was depressed.
Exactly...what was bad then is beyond ridiculous today.
@@mikephalen3162 We haven't had a Kent State yet, that is a law enforcement agency firing on a student body for a reason. Hopefully almost something thing like that will never happen again.
@Sunrays2020 51 years later, my condolences.
Nicely put together.
Holy Toledo! I was a junior in high school. Mixed memories. My first girlfriend. My first bass guitar. The music. Wow, seems like a different world. Thanks again for all you do! Love the channel! 😊👍🇺🇸
I was 12 ,A totally different world !!
@@halbud Yes it was!
I was a senior.
The 8-Track Players & Cartridges were very most popular that year.
Thank Mr. Bill Lear (of private business jets fame) for that. The first player was installed in a plane, not a car (the place most likely to find them).
The 8 tracks were a pain & constantly had to fix them.
@@karenmessinger9609 - ask Techmoan and Ben Minotte (The Oddity Archive).
Both YT creators have had to deal with repairing many more 8-track cartridges than they can count (and seen both deal with it on camera).
Graduated from High School in 1970. Tried college but was just tired of school so I joined the Navy in December reporting to boot camp in January 1971. My selective service number was low.
My sister graduated in 1970...i didnt join the Navy until July, 1986. You were in the Navy when you could wear beards(Zumwalt Navy). I wish i could've worn one...the Navy stopped beards on New Years Day, 1985. Did you wear that dress blue suit that came out in the early 70's?
51 years ago, but the lives of almost every American have changed so much. I was 16 and something of a high school basketball 🏀 star. All of the events you included were big news for almost everyone. So many of those events that are still important today. Most Americans were on the same page 📄 back then even though we had differences. Most people don’t know that a Republican President signed the Clean Air Act, EPA and Earth Day into law. The future was bright for the U.S.A. and most people had hope in spite of our differences. The Vietnam war was the biggest dividing issue in this country. The war didn’t seem to improve no matter what was done. One of the biggest issues then was the draft. When a male turned 18 you had 30 days to go to the Selective Service office and register to be drafted. Old men in Congress sending young draftees into combat in a foreign country half way around the world caused a lot of protests such as Kent State. When those students were killed by National Guardsmen it started to turn the opinions about the Vietnam war. How could college students protesting the war get killed by fellow Americans? Another issue was desegregation. No more “separate but equal”. Black kids were bussed to white schools and white kids were bussed to black schools. I was bussed to a black school. Their school was newer and nicer than ours. They had a football stadium, we didn’t.
And add.......you could be drafted, but Not vote for them Old men in congress (Gee......that has not changed)
But that changed on June 22, 1970 when Nixon Signed the change to the 1965 voting laws. (had to look up the date)
I registered for the draft in '72 just as the war was winding down. I was classified 1H and still have my draft card.
@@jaldav , Me too
“Most Americans were on the same page” ? Maybe your 16 year old mind saw it that way.
@@marysmith7765 Maybe more correct to have said "many more Americans were on the same page" than today. I don't think I've ever seen as much division in the nation as we face today, sadly enough.
Another great timeline video form Recollection Road.👍👍
As a 16yo I met a girl in the summer of 1970. I remember the song "Spill The Wine" by Eric Burdon and War was playing all the time on the radio. Halter tops were really in and at the local beach all the girls wore them. Anyway, the girl lied to me about her age. She was only 12. But she was 12 going on 16 and I was 16 going on 12. So it worked as a "summer romance" and both our parents were ok with it. I was a smart nerd type but was good in sports and she was sort of the pretty slim girl slacker type (not a good student). We had such a great summer together. She overhauled my wardrobe as my parents would take us to the mall and give me a budget. We lasted for about 4 months but she literally changed my life. Although I went from an A to a D in physics after we broke up because I was depressed about it. Thank you Dianna!!! Hope you had a great life!!!!
Weird as hell... who has bf/gf at 12..
The year I left highschool and started working. I lived thru all of this, 2 years before I went into the Army.I love the trip back in time. Thanks for the memories.
This was a memorable year that flew by for me. That year was a bit hazy because we had some new kids in high school who became a steady source of pot for us kids growing up in a rural town in Texas. Before that the strongest thing we had was a few beers stolen from our dads out of the fridge every once in a while.
1070 ……. Now that’s really old school.
I was born in 1071. LOL
I was only 900 years old, living in what would later be Portland OR.! ;)
Talk about old school!
@@SoapinTrucker 😅😅😅
Sure is haha
I was a junior in High School and remember these events very well. Great time to grow up.
and 1970 was the end of peak horse power in the muscle cars sad year
Actually 1971
@@bobbydavis2299 in 71 they droped the compression ratio hence less ponies lol
@@scrappyjunk8793 Yes but HP was still up there, for instance a a high performance 440 was 375 HP in 70, 370 HP in 71. In 72 things drastically changed.
1970 - I was 8, we moved over the hill to the house I would live in with my family until I moved out of home age 19. Dad extended it to add a big family room in the mid-70s.
Around that time we had a dark metallic green valiant sedan. Eventually in the 80s my youngest brother wrote it off by rear-ending a police car.
59 yrs. you are...congrats..👍..
@@johnarriola9526 Now we're getting plaudits for hitting 59? Thank you, sir, I'll take it.
Nice Video Clip
One Omission- The Beatles Officially Broke Up in 1970.
Walt Disney's Studios released the next animated movie "The Aristocats" featuring the voices of Eva Gabor, Phil Harris, Paul Winchell and others too numerous to mention.
In 1970, a new Motown group by the name of The Jackson 5 went to #1 with their 4 singles on both the Pop and R&B charts! It signaled the arrival of the world's greatest entertainers ever, Michael Jackson!!
Love this entire series!...
Very. Nice. Happens. Steven. Cta. Goodness.
The Mini Dresses & Mini Skirts were in fashion that year.
Hahahaha
I know right
Hope you are having a blessed day there!!!
I was 20 in 1970 and drew the draft lottery #350 allowing me to stay in college. The year 2 movies I still love today being Mash & Patton were released. Also the year my bowling team won the Team Class D Texas Bowling Association title.
Hahahaha

That was my point in asking...
My wife was born in May 1970. That alone made it a great year. We have been married almost 25 years.
I was 14 this year and it was quite the time to be a teenager learning about the world beyond my previously (very) small town life
In 1970 I was 5 years old, but still remember on May 10th watching Bobby Orr score his famous OT goal as he got tripped and went flying though the air to give the Boston Bruins their first cup championship in a long time.
I was 5 that year as well. My world then was all about Apollo, couldn't get enough.
He was tripped up by St. Louis Blues defenseman Noel Picard. Glenn Hall allowed the goal.
I was 5 that year also. I remember my dad taking us kids to the hockey games in St. Louis. I remember Bobby Orr.
I was 10, such simpler times. I remember many of the events mentioned. I lived in WV so the Marshal plane crash was big news. The movie We Are Marshall tells the story. By high school graduation in Ohio, the Kent State shootings were still fresh in everyone's minds. I had friends that did go there for college.
A much simpler times for us children of the time, of course, certainly not for actual fully formed adults who witnessed it all while we were tooling around the neighborhood on our Stingrays, Just for starters, a half-dozen prominent people being assassinated right here in the US.
1970 my older brother took me to my first concert and saw Derrick and the Domino's featuring Eric Clapton on my birthday
Yep the protest sound was fading away, and soft rock came in, groups like Bread Carpenters, and Tony Orlando and Dawn.
And four years later the BeeGee's ushered in the garbage known as "Disco".... to be followed 10 years later by absolutely THE worst form music....if it can even be called that, rap.🎸
On 9/3,We say so long to Alan "Blind Owl" Wilson.Band Member of Canned Heat.
Canned heat was a hard luck band. I saw them at Woodstock. Bob Hite died in a stupid drug OD years later.
Had alan lived he and"sky dog"would have been the best blues guitarist on the planet!🗽👍
What a great band they were. Great songs..... great memories.🎸
Please make these "flashback to" videos longer with more content. Thanks! I've subscribed.
Thank you, for recognizing Black Sabbath for their debut album. A major influence for the heavy rock or heavy metal music scene for years to come.
Heavy Metal and Music are mutually exclusive.
Heavy Metal Rules!!!
A movie called We Are Marshall (with Matthew McConaughey) was made in 2006 about the Nov. 14, 1970 Southern Airways plane crash that killed the entire Marshall University football team. (At 6:40 in video)
The classic comedy TV series "The Odd Couple" premiered Sept 24, 1970.
Oct 22nd 1970.
I was brought into the world..
My Dream Car: 1970 Boss 302 Mustang
My dad had a 1970 white 302 Mustang and he gave it to me when I was in high school. I loved that car. The first of 3 Mustangs that I drove.
@@cdfreester So cool! I had a 1969 plain mustang A 1971 mustang coupe and a 1973 Yellow and black Mach 1 (Like the one in the original Gone in 60 Seconds movie), But I always wanted a 1970... But never got one.
And if you're one of those who think we didn't land on the moon.....if they were still alive, I'd challenge you to go to Lovell, Haise or Swigert and say that to their faces. They almost made the ultimate sacrifice trying to get there.
1070 long before I was born , I can barely recall the sixties 😂
Kennedy, you're living up to your name!
@@PaulTesta 👍👌
On Saturday morning, September the twelfth, 1970, CBS premiered "The Harlem Globetrotters' Show" through the courtesy of Hanna-Barbera Productions.
I was only 3 yrs old that year, I remember watching Flip Wilson and Geraldine! I know that when, Casey Casum eventually had a show, I always thought he had such a soothing voice. We eventually got to see the Harlem Globetrotters when, they came to the Colosseum up in Cincinnati, OH, they had a variety show also on Saturday mornings and, that’s when, they Little Rodney Allen Rippie and, he was my favorite. In fact at one point, my mom found us t-shirts with him on it at, K-Mart, I do believe. I wore that shirt till it was worn out.
Also in 1970,I began my Kindergarten year.
Ditto here
Me too!!
On 8/31 of that year,Singer,Songwriter Debbie Gibson was born.
I forgot about that. Had a big crush on that siren back in the late 80s. 😁🥰
I love Debbie Gibson! Ever since I was a kid! ❤
I was 9 years old..life was good..
I was born in 1957 and in 1970 I only just 13 years old and in Junior High School.
On Saturday night, September the twelfth, 1970, "The 1970 Miss America Beauty Pageant" had celebrated its golden jubilee since September of 1921. And the late Phyllis George from Denton, Texas was crowned Miss America 1971 by wearing the Miss America golden crown with diamonds on it instead of the traditional silver one.
Phyllis was such a beauty. Later became the First Lady of Kentucky.
1970 the year I met a girl for the first time who would later become my best friend and we are still together today. That was in fourth grade.
Hahahaha
I know right
Hope you are having a blessed day there!!!
The year my wife and I were married 51year s latter we are still married omg. 1 - 24- 1970.
1970 Indianapolis 500 Winner: Al Unser. The first of his four victories at _'Brickyard'._
1970 Le Mans winners: Hans Herrmann and Richard Attwood (Porsche 917)
1970 F1 WDC: Jochen Rindt*
*Won postumously. Killed on September 5th while qualifying for the Italian GP at Monza, Italy.
1970 Daytona 500 winner: Pete Hamilton (only win in this event)
In 1970 I was 16 years old and in high school. It was a long time ago and very far away.
The best years ever !
PBS also began this year, though:
1. Most of it's shows continued airing from NET, which is considered the very first incarnation of PBS and had the same stations
2. The name NET was still alternatively used in broadcasts until around 1972 or so
3. The famous "P-head" logo didn't exist until October 1971.
BTW, I was born in 1995, but my mom's one of Recollection Road's fans and got me interested in this channel, so apologies if I sound a little out of place. I consider this channel very educational history-wise.
I remember the old P-head logo. I was in kindergarten from 77-78, and at my sitter's after school we'd watch "The Electric Company", "Zoom", and "Sesame Street". That logo would come on screen with that (to us then) space age music behind it.
@@jrussellcase Same here; in kindergarten. (Transitional first grade) I miss the old PBS logo; sure brings back memories, including Sesame Street's funky chimes, during the end credits.
@@pamelabacker2420 YES!! Gordon would come on at the end of Sesame Street, and name those who had "contributed to funding", and they played Funky Chimes. I hadn't heard that music in years until I found it on here a few months ago....and all the memories came flooding back. 😊
My oldest brother was born on New Year's Day 1970! It's amazing to see what life was like the year he was born. ❤
Your thumbnail says flashback to 1070! That's really going far back! Thought you might want to know. 😘
I was born on Easter Sunday morning premature on March 29th 1970😀
I remember it all. What a long strange trip it's been to quote the Dead. I think that lyric sums up that time indeed. Glad I was there. 😉
In 1970,my family moved from the neighborhood I lived in all my life into an apartment we were in for about 14 Months
Even though we were in a false war no one wanted, America still had HOPE. Unlike today, where the youth of this country knows not it's history, and has mainly only known uncertainty and no greater direction over time.
In 1970, I was fifteen, learning how to drive and oblivious to most of the events depicted in this video.
Ahhh yes, 1070
I am binge watching this list
Thanks much
00:59 Robert Altman was a ww2 vet bomber pilot who also directed many episodes of the Combat TV series.
Back in 1970 I watched MASH every day. Loved that show.
@Austin Scott Nope. I'm being reckless and careless!!!
@Austin Scott Are you on here trying to pick up women? That's just insane man.
@Austin Scott Where would you like to chat and WHY do you want to chat with me???
Major Professional Sports Champions during 1970 included...
MLB - Baltimore Orioles defeated Cincinnati Reds four games to one (67th World Series)
NBA - New York Knicks defeated Los Angeles Lakers four games to three (NBA Finals)
NFL - Kansas City Chiefs (AFL) defeated Minnesota Vikings (NFL) 23-7 (Super Bowl IV)
CFL - Montreal Alouettes defeated Calgary Stampeders 23-10 (58th Grey Cup)
NHL - Boston Bruins swept St. Louis Blues in four games (Stanley Cup Finals)
Just weeks after Super Bowl IV was played, the Baltimore Colts, the Cleveland Browns and the Pittsburgh Steelers all joined the ten American Football League teams to help form the American Football Conference (AFC), while the remaining 13 NFL teams were left to help with the creation the National Football Conference (NFC), as the NFL-AFL merger went into effect.
I was married for 2 years in 1970
The days I wish we would go back to.
Everyone missed the old time but without the old days there will be know future. So it’s more better we appreciate the old memories
Can't wait to see 1971. The greatest year in rock ever!
1070? I was born in October of 1970..it works
cool video! It was nice seeing what went on in the world in the year I was born
"Flashback to 1070 - A Timeline of Life in America"... Was America around then?
@Johnny Rep LOL
Lots of Native American tribes.
It was sad that you forgot the sixth member of the original cast of the Mary Tyler Moore show and that was Cloris Leacman😢
Excited for the 1971 vid
You'll get it next Tuesday, September 28th
Actually the parental guidance rating was called GP it was changed to PG in 1972.
@@Terry_Brashier I know this because my dad owned a Jerry Lewis Cinema back in the day.
Yep, I remember the GP rating.
It was mistakenly thought to mean "General Public," so it was changed to PG.
and then you thought they meant "pregnant".

That went fast! We need part 2! 👍
Wow - you’ve got to mean 1970 LOL 😂
Sure would NOT want to see what or was like in 1070 🤣
Every generation likes to think it had the best music. Turns ours really WAS the best…
My Sister was born in 70 & myself in 72😊
Would that make you the baby of the family..? 🤭 I giggle 'cos I'm the baby born in 72, brother in 70 and sister in 68. Cheers to a similarity 🥂
Losing Jimi Hendrix was like a kick in the teeth.
I turned 10 in 1970 and my parents bought me my favorite all-time birthday present, a Schwinn Sting-Ray. Too bad it got stolen about two years later. I loved that bike. It was also the year I attended my first NFL game at Tiger Stadium, watching the hometown Lions beat the Bears. Little did I know it was the beginning of more than 50 years of heartache and futility for me as a fan. Oh well. Being way into space I remember Apollo 13. We all thought they were goners. And Sabbath! I blew the left channel out of my old man's stereo with the Paranoid album. He wasn't impressed. I had to do extra chores like painting the fence and cleaning the gutters for a long time to pay that bill off. Janis was okay but I did love Hendrix. RIP Jimi, you are not forgotten.
I was 12 and went to my first tigers game in june,from kalamazoo . We moved to Charlotte nc in augst of '70 but i'm still a lions ,tigers fan, and now Panthers !! was your sting ray an orange peeler or the Ghost ?!
@@halbud Awesome! Nice to meet a fellow traveler. Perhaps you were one of the young men Ernie Harwell used to refer to when he talked about fans catching foul balls, ("A young man from Kalamazoo caught that one). As far as the bike goes, I'm not sure which model it was. It was blue with a banana seat, was great for pulling wheelies, and I loved it. That's all I remember. Hang in there with the Tigers and Lions, help is on the way. 👍
@@itinerantpatriot1196 i had a huffy when we lived in Kazoo, would love to see the lions in the S.B. just one time!!!,or at least the playoffs !!!lol ! Take care friend...
I also received a Blue Schaumburg Stingray 5 speed banana seat! Loved it dearly and also had it stolen one day and it crushed me! Still 1970 was a very good year for me!
Schwinn
I was born 3/30/70. A child throughout the 70's, a teen throughout the 80's and my 20's throughout the 90's. Then it all went to hell in the 00's, but i'm eternally grateful that the first 3 decades of my life were in those years. Though i'm jealous of those who got to live through the 50's & 60's because I wish I had lived through them too.
I lived through the 50’s and 60’s. Please don’t be jealous. You didn’t miss much.
The PG rating wasn't introduced until esrly 1972. The M rating was changed to GP, which meant the same thing parental guidance suggested. Also in 1970 the R rating's age limit was raised to 17 from 16. The X rating age limit was also raised.
1970 was a a GREAT year for a 6 year old! ME
Me too

I don't know whether my parents took part in the 1970 Census, I was too young to notice.
I went to public school for the first time as a 2nd-grader on Tuesday, September 15, 1970.
Also on Friday, September 18th, the same day that Jimi Hendrix died, the TV show "The Partridge Family" debuted; the day before "The Mary Tyler Moore Show" debuted the next day, on Saturday, September 18th.
Also, on that very same Friday, actress Aisha Tyler ("Criminal Minds") was born.
The Mary Tyler Moore Show had several spin-off programs.
May 4, 1970: 4 students protesting the Vietnam war were killed in cold blood by Ohio National Guardsmen at Kent State University, in Ohio. The innocence of my childhood ended that day. Thank God I woke up to the injustices in this country. Never saw the USA in the same light again! Also, I started freshman year of high school, that fall.
Neil Young with his hit Ohio. Came out shortly after.
And a year later I was drafted. Not a great time for some of us.
That reminds me, of the shootings, in Tianamen Square in China, in May 1989; when the Chinese military opened fire, on innocent students, marching for democracy. Sad day.
On 5/7 of that year,The final Episode of "DANIEL BOONE" airs.
