NBC Network - Today - "The Simple Solution to Rubik's Cube" (Excerpt, 6/30/1981) ▦
Here's an excerpt from the Today show on the NBC Network as aired over WMAQ Channel 5. Here, co-host Tom Brokaw is interviewing James G. Nourse, research associate at Stanford University's Chemistry Department and author of "The Simple Solution to Rubik's Cube" - and Jane Pauley is seen very briefly, along for the ride.
In this segment, we learn that its invention was originally designed to teach 3-dimensional objects and their meaning to architectural students, that there are 43 quintillion moves (!), that the mass possibilities are why it is so difficult, how it's similar to what Mr. Nourse deals with in his regular job, what color he starts with to get the colors back to where they should be, that there's nothing random about it, the possibility of sore wrists and "Rubik thumbs," and how having a mathematical mind helps when playing it (but is not absolutely required); and as he explains all this the camera shows him actually working to get it all back (which he manages to do about 60% of the way into this clip)
Preview of next segment (a Gene Shalit interview with Swoosie Kurtz) is underway when recording ends
Previously we posted a commercial for Rubik's Cube from Ideal that aired in August of the previous year as you can see here: czcams.com/video/_OHcaVc6ehQ/video.html
This aired on local Chicago TV on Tuesday, June 30th 1981 within the 7:00am to 9:00am timeframe.

(The pageant itself was held on May 7th 1982.) This whole thing seems like a weird, corny throwback, even for 1982. And it's a sobering fact that 1982 was closer to 1952 than 1982 is to 2024 (30 years versus 42 years...

Im 56 now. I remember watching all of these shows back when I was a kid. Hard to believe it was that long ago. Lol.
Glorious!
Barbi Benton proves herself to be a highly competent singer here!
Lori Loughlin: Is that legal, knock on wood?
I was 6 month old! man this makes me feel old.
This is Lord Wellington. My friend David " The Rock " Nelson was on this programme. Not this particular episode, but an earlier episode. He said they were in studio for it. These days he's a very accomplished maker of "Monster Movies" and has been back to WGN often. For the News. He played one such film with Us on there as well for Larry Potash and all the children called " Dinosaur Woman. "
Oh this is great.talk about going. back to great times. I was 12 y.o. kid when this came out.big time memories. I remember all the commercials.my folks watched this movie, and I remember it was on a school night and my sister and I were so mad we couldn't stay up to finish it.BEDTIME NOW!!😂😂
Well, why this video aren't processed. Maybe it's failure Codec or something censored by CZcams? I couldn't find this video even after seeking on CZcams downloader. Maybe this video are down or getting censored by CZcams or something else happens ?
Love this. I remember seeing "The Search for Something Else" graphics some years ago when it was first uploaded. Really enjoying learning about the Scanimate technology. Also love the Tangerine Dream "Encore" track at the beginning btw :).

I used to watch the original Sven on Friday nights on channel 32 and Creature Features an Sat night on channel 9. Been watching Son of Sven for years. Never saw this episode, so nice to see the beginning.
Oops.Spelling mistakes below.Sorry.Incidentally,anybody recognize 'Palmer' from the movie The Thing ?
I remember this on TV when it first aired..I recognized some of the actors and thought I'd be seeing some kind of play..little did I known Definitely edge of your seat television.Brilliant.
I really like the commercials 😮 that movie was pretty good too. Probably a true story
You could tell this is a work of fiction because there’s a longshoremen strike in…South Carolina ! No unions down there !
@Fuzzy Memories tv===Thanks fellow commenters for all your VALUABLE TV & MOVIE ACTORS information!!!!! White haired MORGAN WOODWARD seen here in a business suit wearing role and mainly KNOWN for WESTERN BAD GUYS!!!!!
@Fuzzy Memories tv== JOE DON BAKER would have been a BIG BOX OFFICE DRAW as was BURT REYNOLDS but REYNOLDS TOOK OFF!!!! It is simply the way thier MANAGERS promote them with CONSTANT PHOTO OPS and available interviews that possibly PUSH ONE ACTOR slightly """HIGHER IN RECOGNITION""" than the """other"""!!!! And then the PHONE KEEPS RINGING as CHARLTON HESTON would say on TONIGHT SHOW with CARSON!!!! BAKER & REYNOLDS & WILLIAM SMITH together would have been a great action film****
Legend never dies. They always living in heart.
Mmm, that chili sounds real good.
I guarantee I woke Pop and Ma up to tell them about the tornado warning, even though we lived in Wayne County. It was during the summer and I always watched Mary Hartman, Mary Hartman (I was only 12). I think it was because Mary Hartman always wore those short skirts and pantyhose. The show was terrible, but to see a woman's legs in pantyhose was a thrill for me.
Family just cant understand they dont got it
Why kids in Chicago had to enter therapy in the 90s.
Love it! I lived in Hickory Hills from 1965 to 1975 and I see a lot of familiar places. I never thought I'd ever see any vestige of the Cupid Candies that was once in the Hill Creek Shopping Center in Hickory Hills but, if you look closely, it's there in the video. Now I know for sure exactly where it was once located. Thank you so much for posting this!
8:52 started singing "Our primary colors", the LDS children's song, in my head... (sidenote: aired March 12, 1986, per j - archive)
Professional entertainer use mr microphone that's hilarious.
I loved this show when I was a kid! I was a little kid when this show came out, but I thought it was so fun. I also had big crushes on Bowser and Johnny.
You have to remember this was before anything like cable news so this was really the only way people had to get instant information.
One of the shortest special reports I have ever seen.
What a lovely film.. Thank you!
What's a "WIEBOLD's"?
My step uncle, cool guy!! Thanks to him and his designers for the incredible toys that we grew up with in our early years!!!
Loved Bozo growing up...then Baltimore got its own clown, Stu Kerr as Professor Kool's Fun School.
this is much earlier than 82. this is mid 70s
Read the video description.
Back when it was brought forth, I couldn't solve the Rubik's Cube at all except a couple of times when I did but that was fool luck. Three decades later, I decided to go back to trying to solve it and I used the little instruction sheet that came with it and I had the patterns that were illustrated in that sheet memorized. Now I can always solve it.
If they advertised it now with this, the shelves would be empty. Love this
Samurai Sunday!! Excellent!
A gentle, sentimental song to put you in the right mood for bed. I love both themes, and this one is quite wonderful.
If that came out today it would include head gear, safety goggles, knee pads, elbow pads, hormone injections and a number to good psychologist that only agrees with you!
I remember shoveling snow to save up money to get this toy
