  • 1981 commercial break for the original Star Trek's second season episode, "The Trouble with Tribbles." According to @cdelano81, this was 5pm PT on Thursday, November 12, 1981. Notice in the second season, DeForest Kelley was now part of the opening theme. Brought to you by San Francisco station KTVU, Channel 2 (appropriate location for Trek!).
    1. 10 O'Clock news promo and KTVU station ID
    2. Lucky supermarket ("Gettin' back to basics!")
    3. Wienerschnitzel (Never been, but intriguing toppings!)
    4. Lionel Playworld (Nice stop motion; and is that Scotty Schwartz?)
    5. RB Furniture (Love this one's music)
    6. Disney Land (Notice the Song of the South characters)
    7. Sears Portrait Studio (I love the graininess of the film and the mellow music)
    8. Certs (I can't see this ending well...)
    9. Hills Bros. (Don't forget the limited edition tin!)
    10. National Wildlife Federation PSA with Robert Redford
    11. Alpha Beta ("The savings don't stop!...")
    12. Quiz Wiz Challenger (Seems like a rather unnecessarily high tech Trivial Pursuit)
    13. Star Wars Turret and Probot Playset ("We got 'em, Chewie! Yay!" Somehow I can't picture Han saying this, lol)
    14. The Television Bureau of Advertising (I wonder what the stats are today...)
    15. Star Trek bumper (I love how it says "our story")
    16. Goliath Awaits promo (with Christopher Lee!)
    17. The Sizzler (I feel like I need a cigarette after this one...)
    18. Stratego (I like the guy playing the spy, lol)
    19. KABL 96AM & 98FM ("Too beautiful for words")
    20. Trident (Peggy shows up in the oddest places...)
    21. Macy's ("Including wireless remote control with Search and Stop action!")
    22. Fry's (But what about Lucky?)
    23. Hills Bros. ("And delicious tingly mint!")
    24. Mateus (We need a commercial like this today...)
    25. Head to Head Electronic Football (I end up feeling bad for the other guy, lol)
    26. KOME 98.5FM (Can you identify each artist?)
    27. GranTree ("Hardwood maple finish trim")
    28. End credits (previewing Hang 'Em High and Goliath Awaits, with a rather amusing swipe at The Poseidon Adventure, lol. Also Laverne & Shirley)
    29. McDonald's (partial)
    30. Not sure what this commercial is for; it mentions Dinky Donuts but they're obviously also featuring TVs and recorders (partial)

    This video was originally taped at 5pm PT on Thursday, November 12, 1981. Clint Eastwood's "Hang 'em High" aired at 7:30pm that night. On a sidenote, I was born just 11 days prior. I was recovering from a partially collapsed lung at the time of this recording and was not released from the hospital until about a week later. Then, in mid-December, at 6 weeks old, my family and I left Ellsworth, Maine to live in the San Jose area. We still live there today, so I practically grew up watching KTVU, KOFY-20 and other networks. THANKS SO MUCH for this rare find.

      That's awesome, thank you for sharing! It's always cool to know what was playing when we were born.
