Ah, VHS was essential in the nineties. Most of my early childhood was in the eighties but we didn't have a VHS until the nineties. I mostly remember being obsessed with cataloguing my favourite shows on to multiple tapes like Star Trek TNG. My earliest memory of VHS was watching a pirated copy of E.T. at my Godparents house in either '82 or '83 :)
Nice, yeah I would record so much stuff from the TV, thanks for watching :)
Spotted a Moondreamers VHS in your collection. 💜 That's one of my earliest memories - watching the same Moondreamers VHS over and over, and ALWAYS watching the ads/trailers at the start!
I've still not watched the moon dreamers video yet, yeah I love all the ads and stuff
Nice little short video! My family were (and still are!) movie lovers so naturally we had a lot of VHS tapes. They were mostly Disney videos, so I do indeed remember the one you mentioned. So nostalgic! I also liked the later Disney Videos variant.
Another intro I have particular fond memories of is the original Thames Video Collection intro. This one appeared on the Count Duckula, Button Moon and Wind in the Willows tapes. Everyone I see that intro, I get a real blast of nostalgia! I also loved the Video Collection intro that appeared on my Thomas The Tank Engine tape 😊
My brother, like you, also recorded several tapes of Ren & Stimpy. To say that we overplayed those tapes is a bit of an understatement!!! 😂
And on a final note, the BBC intros were real nightmare fuel! The globe one in particular actually used to scare me! 😅
I've kept all my vhs to this day, around 100 tapes
Ooo nice, that's a lot with the amount of room they take up
I have good memories of getting my first Simpsons VHS, bart the general and theres no disgrace like home episodes were on it, Beano all stars, Beavis and Butthead and recording all sorts, police chase programs, sky movies Schwarzenneggar films mostly. Watched them over and over
Had nostalgic goosebumps at the Disney home video intro haha!
Yeah it's super nostalgic to me too that one
Very nostalgic watching this looking forward to the next episode
Thank you, I'm looking forward to doing more episodes in this series
I still have my VHS tapes from when I was a kid.
Nice, keep them safe :) which ones do you have?
Fantastic video Dan! My first memories of anything tv or cartoon related was the intro to Gigglesnort Hotel, it's a very obscure show that aired in the mid to late 70's & very early 80s I even emailed the creator of the show but long since lost the email. VHS has always been, & still is a big part of my life. There's just something satisfying about putting in a tape and hearing the clicks, & whirrs & hums as your movie or show gets ready to start. I think people who grew up with it appreciate it still because it was usually a family or group experience, renting or watching movies & shows. Like going out on a Friday night to rent a movie was always a big deal because "You can only pick one!" and I think the process of watching something on VHS is a calming experience because you had to have patience to watching something on VHS, not just immediate gratification like Netflix or the Internet now. That & the fact there are still some movies, & tv shows you can only find on VHS. I'm old enough to remember Laserdisc too, & man as 10yr old kid growing up in the late 80s seeing those discs blew my mind! I was like WOW the FUTURE is here lol! I'm glad so many people appreciate VHS it's really something that needs to be experienced to appreciate it for what it was.
Nice, had to Google gigglesnort hotel, don't recognise it, looks weird and cool though. Thanks for the comment and for watching :)
Man I still remember when my family first got a VCR... and the thrill of going to the rental store to rent my first movie which I still remember being the original Transformers Cartoon movie back in 1986 :-)
Nice, will be doing a video rental video soon :)
I was a child in the 80s but was a teen in the 90s thanks for the memory bro! B kind rewind!
Thanks, glad you enjoyed it :)
I used to remember a lot of video distributor idents on VHS tapes. The ones that I remember the most are Pickwick Video, the Walt Disney ones, CBS Video, Tempo Video, 4 Front Video, BBC Video and The Video Collection. The funny thing is, The Video Collection ident used to scare me lol.
Yeah some indents had a weird creepy feel to them ha ha and some are just great, thank you for watching, appreciate it :)
We had a whole library of VHS tapes when I was a kid, they're still at my parent's house actually. My aunt and uncle operated a video store as well, and sometimes they would babysit me there and I could sit behind the counter and watch movies all day while I ate snacks and drank soda.
VHS was how I got my friends into anime. I would stay up late on Saturdays to record the Animidnight feature on the Stars Action Channel, and then share my tapes with my friends.
That's great :) first Japanese animated VHS I watched was Akira
That great nostalgia. Used to watch Power rangers the movie on a VHS tape weekly. Remember my mum taping lots of shows and films on VHS. Remember watching Michael Jacksons Moonwalker recorded on a VHS tape so special. Ah the 90's.
I just bought power rangers the movie on VHS :)
90's were so much better than now. >.>
I agree, thank you for watching :)
I had the complete set of Star Trek: Voyager on VHS, as well as the complete Twin Peaks.
I remember our local video store. It was called Video Review, and you could borrow tapes for up to 2 weeks. They had those stickers on the front that told you the purchase price of the movie. I remember that Ghostbusters cost £75! That was before most movies were available to buy, of course.
£75?! That's insane ha ha
Grew up on Disney and Carry On VHS tapes as a kid in the 90's, earliest animation memory was Sparky's Magic Piano on Betamax.
My brother loves VHS still buys them from the charity shop in town and has a collection of all the other visual devices of laser disc, HDDVD, UMD, Philips Cdi and Vinyl Video Disc.
Nice, I try to pick VHS vids up when I can locally but I very rarely see good ones. Mostly eBay for me, never heard of Sparky's magic piano
@@oddpodshow Sparky's Magic Piano is on RUclips, if you ever get a spare hour to watch it.
great video, all my VHS were trashed as my family assumed they were outdated. I use to tape movies off the TV or just watch the ones I had over and over and over, soon as they finished I'd rewind them. When people go on about movie quality, 4k, blu-ray, it just never appeals to me, yes those do look great, but I grew up with a grainy small TV with VHS so quality was never a big issue to me, as long as I could see the picture.
Yeah, like I said in the video there is something relaxing about the VHS look plus it makes horror movies look more creepy
Used to hate scotch tapes.. Lifetime guarantee bah 😬😬 after 5 recording the quality was terrible
good memories msn. The Walt Disney intro sticks out the most for me.
Yeah that Disney one is very nostalgic, thanks for watching :)
70s Spider-man. I got to see that in the cinema when I was a kid. Great stuff.
Ha ha nice, I'm gonna review them sometime in the future, never knew they had any kind of cinema release
VHS for me was an interesting thing being born in 86 and having access to Beta and VHS I had a mountain of things to watch and I learned how to tune in, set the the clock and set up the timer at the age of 6.
This would become one of my many useful home skills as a kid as I could reclock all the home VCRs when ever a fuse was tripped or the power went out.
The first VHS memory I have was my nana explaining how she had the VHS at home sorted. While most people would write a name on the label she would write A1 and such and had a little yellow phone directory and A1 would be the first page of A and the titles that were on the tape were recorded there.
Then there is the joys of movie rentals my favourite section to look in was horror,they always had the coolest covers. Was never allowed to rent any, well not until I was older.
But the biggest thing VHS did for me was scoring extra money which I would blow on phone credit and movie rentals.
What I used to do was record all the mildly pornographic foreign films off of the tv and sell the tapes to the lads at school for $5
Nice, I actually did a video on VHS rentals too and pretty sure I mention horror covers 😁 I never even tried setting the clock on a VCR, just recorded days of cartoon network and Nickelodeon and watched a lot of random movies including some of uncles more grown up VHS tapes ha ha 😂
What a great vid and fab memories... may do a cheeky 80s VR here ;)
Yeah you should, glad you enjoyed it, thanks for watching :)
I feel.bit bad 🙄 did i just leave you in front of tv all day 😂 bad mummy , but nice looking back on all the vids , because i had to sit watching them with you over and over again , good job i love you so much xx
That's fine, they bring back great memories ha ha :)
brilliant video as usual Dan brought back some awesome memories
Thank you, glad it brought back some memories :)
@@oddpodshow yeah still got my limited edition vhs versions of Jurassic Park, Independence Day and the Original Star Wars Trilogy still watch them.from time to time and do you remember the Video Collection opening on videos
Awesome :)
who else had a vhs player because their parents didnt want to buy a dvd player for you
Well VHS is great, yeah you missed out on special features and stuff but you still got to watch movies and stuff at home. I'm sure you got a dvd player eventually
I think my earliest VHS memory was that Return of the Dinosaurs tape I went on a mad hunt for after one of your streams recently. After finding it that day and seeing it was based on a Tsuburaya Productions series called Dinosaur Expedition Born Free and I suddenly realised that that may be what started my love of Tokusatsu. That show was a combination of puppetry, stop motion and hand animation. Real cool stuff. That an another VHS I had called Starfleet which was another dubbed Japanese import based on a show called X-Bomber which combined Thunderbirds style puppets with a giant robot played by a guy in a suit. I'm sure that led me to Godzilla and the like as a kid too.
Have a similar thing with comics when i realised a load of my favourite writers and artists worked on teh very Judge Dredd books I had as a kid. We are clearly just moulded in our first few years aren't we?
Yeah we are definitely moulded in our first few years, I loooove Godzilla, need to get more Godzilla VHS tapes. Thanks for watching :)
@@oddpodshow It's the only way to get most of the godzilla films in the UK. Well worth collecting up. I tried to get them on dvd a while back and had to import almost all of them.
Laurel and hardy on vhs oh and the files from police squad! Great times😂
Nice, love both of those
That Disney home video intro was incredibly nostalgic. I saw that a lot as a kid.
Great video once again! :)
Yeah I love that Disney one, glad you enjoyed the video :)
cant beat vhs trailers i used to love the wwf colliseum ones.
and when i rented a video loved the trailers.
you have a really good memory to remember first cartoon and adverts y saw mine could be a choice of loads
Yeah I remember a lot of my childhood even very early childhood. Yeah VHS trailers were great 😁
My first kids craze Transformers
First computer spectrum 16k
First cartoon I remember probaly looney tunes
First music video thriller
First film probaly et
First comic dandy or beano
First book probaly magic farway Tree
Some of my earliest memories
@@80s_guy awesome
I hated the coming soon feature when I was a kid as I just wanted the movie to start but love seeing them now as it sort of date stamps the time frame if when the video was released
Also, have just found your channel thanks to Too old too grow up
Yeah I love watching them, sometimes find really fun and weird gems on some VHS tapes, oh they mentioned odd pod? How nice of them :)
The Tempo Video jingle is the most nostalgic for me. Weirdly, I can't find it on RUclips - I can only find the Abbey Home Entertainment version!
Nevermind. Found it! ruclips.net/video/flwEllGnuCA/видео.html
Yeah I was gonna add that one but ran out of time to
I miss the smell of video rental stores
I miss a lot about them
Some great VHS Memories here dude and can't wait to see what else comes in this series. I always remember watching VHS tapes and having trailers for the Star Wars Special Editions coming to VHS. I also remember one of my cousins being so excited that he had a copy of Power Rangers The Movie on VHS that he came round to my house and waved it at the window whilst me and my family were trying to eat dinner.
Ha ha that's great, I should get power rangers movie VHS and do the same to you again ha ha
Remember when VHS also was in the early 2000s when they were still being made?
I do indeed, was slowly on its way out
@@oddpodshow I think DVDs and Blue rays are next as far as on the way out.
@@ryanaveni9059 maybe, I'll be sad when they go. I love extra features and stuff
I used to own plenty of vhs tapes as a kid and I used to collect them as well
Nowadays I mostly collect DVDs and blu rays
Btw have you’ve seen it’s always sunny in Philadelphia it’s a great show
Yeah it's always sunny is great, yeah I have a lot of dvds and blurays too
Nice video
Thank you
First big memory was having a copy of Ghostbusters taped but it had Was Not Was - Walk the dinosaur for some reason originally on the tape so that song is burnt into my mind. Also the on and on and Ariston advert was a big one - in my adult years I found out that the music from it is actually the theme tune to Robocop on the Gameboy! (Which is a top, top tune!)
How did you manage to save most of the VHS tapes you had? Wish I had mine but most of them got thrown out once I was in my teens! I’ve got a few Disney ones but that’s about it. I recorded Batman the animated series when I was a kid but that got thrown out unfortunately!! Miss my childhood days lol..
Oh I didn't save them, I had to track down and rebuy all the videos I had as a kid. Flip the frog was the hardest to fine for some reason, it's great to have them again. Thanks for watching :)
But what about BETA?! Haha yeah man VHS was and still is awesome. Love that TDK commercial you put in there lol
I was gonna mention beta but I forgot, plus I never came across it as a kid. Thanks for watching :)
2 years younger then me...hu....
Yup
The only VHS tapes I had were all The Wiggles VHS tapes
Fruit Salad, Yummy yummy, Fruit Salad, Yummy! Yummy yummy yummy yummy Fruit Salaaaaaad!

You should try to do an review on Madballs!
Oh I definitely want to do a madball video, they are just quite pricey, when I can afford a bunch I definitely will. Joe from retro Cynical did a video on them a while ago
Odd Pod Nice have you ever heard of the madballs cartoon and movie?
@@remixraptor7064 I've heard of a video game and cartoon but not a movie
Odd Pod I think it’s a short movie called escape to orb?
@@remixraptor7064 cool
Lul! VHS
Say oddpod yesterday night I saw the 2019 adams family movie here’s my thoughts
While I’m glad they didn’t try too hard to be like adventure time, regular show, gumball, Sanjay and craig, and uncle grandpa and lose the charm that made these shows work to a point where it became a bad parody of the Adams family
Unfortunately the film lacked the Witt that made the Adams family work to begin with
While some jokes were clever others felt like they were written by a kindergartener
The villain is also pretty weak and the themes and messages the movie tackles feels forced and unsatisfying
The art style is also inconsistent and very bland some character look Cartoony while others have realistic proportions
Overall the Adams family 2019 is a mediocre movie that could’ve been so much better but its not the worst animated film I’ve seen
That’s my peace if you happen to like the film oddpod then I respect your opinion
Hopefully the live action films from the 90s are better
Ive not seen the Addams family CGI film yet, most modern films don't interest me so I don't watch many ha ha 😂
Odd Pod to be fair I can see why
I do have some interest in modern film but most of the time it’s a typical Disney dreamworks cgi film (or even. A try hard one by another studio) (there are standout gems that try to do more interesting ideas). A typical superhero film (marvel peaked with endgame for me and dc went nowhere) or it’s a generic action or horror flick
So yeah I can see why your not interested in modern cinema
@@jamesborlan2850 yeah, I do watch some, I watch most of the superhero ones and a few others but mostly because I work at a cinema so I can see them for free ha ha 😂 only modern thing I do enjoy are games
Odd Pod I like modern games too but there are some video games in the modern era that I’m not too fond of
Personally I like modern cartoons, anime, and comics better than anything else modern in entertainment now, well ok there are plenty of exceptions
(Opinion respected)
@@jamesborlan2850 for modern cartoons I love Gumball, great cartoon
