I was born in 1977, and I remember all of this. God, it sucks that we have get older. I would give anything to be 6 years old again watching bunnicula, the dukes of Hazzard, hearing the Dallas theme song from my bedroom, the incredible hulk, 3-2-1 contact.
You just described my childhood at that time.
You mentioned some great shows. I remember when JR Ewing was shot.
@@KevinPayton-fq8gd I remember when they had the big deal of the other guy getting shot. I can't remember his name in the show though. I also really like The Greatest American Hero, and I used to watch the Andy Griffith Show, All in the Family, Family Ties, Highway to Heaven, Happy Days, Mr Belvedere, the show with the little black kid that was adopted - I can't remember the name of it, Silver Spoons, Different Strokes, oh and Knight Rider...God I miss the good days.
@@kevinashley478The show that you are talking about with the African American kid that was adopted was called Webster. The character Webster was played by actor Emmanuel Lewis.
@@islandprincess9666 yep! Thats the one! Ugh, getting older also means forgetting a lot of things.
I so wish it was 1985 again. Those of us who were kids then know exactly what that means
Miss all these commercials, PSA's, and of course the ABC Weekend Specials. Children these days have been so deprived of a childhood filled with these things and Saturday morning cartoons as well.
Bill Clinton killed the Saturday Morning Cartoon by requiring new "educational" standards.
@@Asylum1Yes, this was why "E/I" content flooded Saturdays.
I was 11 in '85. Man how I miss papa smurfs special sauce.
Man! that song is just friggin fantastic!!!...Bowser and Captain OG Readmore have great chemistry 😆
ABC owned Saturday mornings & Saturday nights back in the late 70s/early 80s with cartoons, ‘American Bandstand’, ‘ABC Weekend Specials,’ ‘ABC’s Wide World of Sports’, America’s Top Ten’, ‘The Love Boat,’ & ‘Fantasy Island.’ Chad Allen @ 0:03
sure did
I loved when we would get a book reAd to us at school and then it would come on the weekend special. Got more of a connection to the story.
I was born in 1976
I couldn't wait till Saturday morning.for a bowl of captain crunch.to sit down and watch all the cartoon I could.1985 I was 15.here I am middle age.and still love cartoons .it all went so fast
What's wild about the tv time in 1985 is that it was still ANOLOG 3 to 4 networks to choose from now it's networks and on demand . There is nothing like a crackly signal and mono audio with a nice ( WE LL BE RIGHT BACK AFTER THESE MESSAGES.). NOW ITS IN AND OUT OF THE SHOW WITH NO WARNING. props to captn crunch and count chocula.. super golden crisp and fruit loops....follow your nose......
EXCELLENT.
And I never appreciated the Weekend Specials at the time. I'm rediscovering them now though!
Happy Saturday I got my cereal do you have yours? It Saturday morning cartoon time with commercials!! Those were the days!! Thanks again for all this nostalgia!!
I miss watching the Weekend Special. Great memories!
Me too. This and “American Bandstand” with Dick Clark are the two shows that were on Saturday afternoons beginning at 12PM noon during lunch break.
@@Musicradio77Network lol!!! Yep, takes me back to some better times. Miss those days and shows for sure.
Indeed.
I'm glad to know there are so many others out there that grew up with these great memories and still are kids at heart... forever stay that way
What an amazing feeling when you haven’t heard these songs in almost 40 years and they just spill out like they did every every Saturday back in the day !I had no idea that I knew every word to Don’t Drown Your Food!🥹
God I Miss Great Shows Like This one, God I Wish that There was a Reboot of this Awesome show, so that Kids Today Don't know what Great shows are these days.
right
🎉😮8😮
Some of my best childhood memories were watching these weekend specials.
8:47, Now, back to our story. My absolute favorite part in the ABC weekend specials from the 80s!
Don't drown your food! God I miss this era of Saturday morning cartoons, PSA's bumpers. Lord help us all!
I wasn't born back then but these kind of shows is what we need today.
The specials I remember are The Bollo Caper, Miss Switch and The Secret World of Og.
Petition to bring Captain OG Readmore back!!😩 He really encouraged us 80s babies to read more (hence his name). This was the golden age of Saturday morning cartoons and educational programming. Today’s kids will never know. #Nostalgia
The episode with the flying horse was awesome, would like to see that again
I remember these times and shows well. It's a sign of a time that's now a happy memory to those of us fortunate enough to have lived it. Everyone on here sees how this country has deteriorated badly in many ways over the past 5 to 10 years especially. It seems hopeless to ever see it make the un-turn in the road before it's past all hope. There's an answer as to how the soul of this country can be saved......it's as simple as these shows right here that we remember. You'd be surprised at what affect it might have if ABC took a look at it... a long look at it and then did a reboot keeping the intro intact that worked well for 20 years.
Most people consider the past useless and look at it and the things we left back there as yesterdays news now worthless in today's world, but when we can't see clearly what's lying out ahead of us as a country and have lost our direction, we have to look to the past and get back to come basic principles if there's to be any future worth having. These shows as simple as they are can be the beginning of the answer we've all been looking for.
Just my thoughts.
Amen!
Velveteen Rabbit!!! Awesome. 👏
The ABC Weekend Special theme is arguably the one piece of Saturday morning music that we kids 😉 remember most because it was on consecutively every weekend FOR TWENTY YEARS, from 1977-97. That's why it brings a wistful tear to my eye every time I hear it here on CZcams. The toy and cereal commercials as well. They're glorious times of fun and innocence that we'll NEVER get back. But we can revisit them here any time we want to.
Preferably on Saturday mornings. 🤍
you are correct
I was 19 around this year...but some things you can't outgrow.Miss this time period😢
My main man!! You are killing it with these cartoons.
Yae! Thank you. I love the commercials too. They remind me of when Booftywoof was alive and we were kids and the barbecue was on. She’d ask for the barbecue too, she’d go to the screen door and howl and Dad would go out and feed her her gizzard.
I had an awesome childhood. So innocent.
This takes me right back to my childhood. Thank you!
I want to go back and live it all over again. The 70’s and 80’s were the best years of my life. We had the best TV shows and Specials back then and lived in the last of the best decades in America..it was the party of a life time and we lived it well. We had great shows like, Falcon Crest, Dallas, Knots Landing, Dynasty,The Waltons, Little House on the Prairie, The Six Million dollar man, The Dukes of Harzard, BJ and the Bear, Air Wolf, Battle Star Galactica! Knight Rider and for the first time ever the motion pictures of, Star Wars, Star Trek, Superman, Spider Man, Close Encounters of the third kind, E.T., Poltergeist, Jaws, Friday the 13th, Aliens, (No not the ones being aloud to just walk into our country right now in 2023), Predator and many more… We also celebrated the bicentennial in the 70’s when the entire country celebrated it from Apr 1, 1975 - Jul 4, 1976. It was like the 4th of July every day. It was fantastic!.…it was such a better time to be alive in this county. We never had the problems that are here today. It was unheard of for kids being shot and men walking around dressed as women. It was the last of America and we were lucky to have experienced it.
We have struck gold here now baby!!!
Omg! The way I only wanted Ovaltine because Noah Hathaway was in the commercial 😂❤❤
CZcams wise, this is the best thing to happen to me in a long time!
Wow ! What an Excellent upload! Keep up the great work 😀♥️🤗🎉📼💓🧈🧈🧈🧈🏄🌊
Thank you 🤗
Here’s some lost ABC Weekend Specials that need finding. The Return Of The Bunjee,the Sequel to The Bunjee Venture, The Hex Of Lulu, the ABC Weekend Special with The Land Of The Lost in it, and the full show of The Magic Factory.
I'll look into it
Miss switch, the world of OG, all the money in the world, a pup named scruffy,
Yes Trouble w/ Miss Switch
Sugar Bear!!!!!! Oh golden crisp was the bomb back then!!
They should bring them back there good tv series I remember the winged it colt it's about a horse with wings that was a good Episode.
Abc weekend special scrappy was the best tv show of all time
It was a good one
The only one of these that I remember is The Velveteen Rabbit 🐇
I remember the VHS of the “Velveteen Rabbit”, but this one at 2:41:12 has the FHE “Paintbrush” logo where it plastered the 1984 FHE logo, but it doesn’t fit the “ABC Weekend Special” program. The FHE “Paintbrush” logo is the best one than the previous two logos. The first two FHE logos were utter creepy and unsettling, because the first FHE logo from 1982 was bad, the second one from 1984 was unsettling.
Great upload..Mone Media thanks again for the memories...can you please make more of the chef Crow show. It's my favorite
I'll call Chef crow to see what he's cooking up. and thank you
@@MoneMedia awesome!
The last hour of the video is missing. Was there a problem with copyrights with the program at the end? Thanks for posting this. The first half was awesome and brought me much happiness.
Just an overlooked error on my part, thanks. Ill fix it.
Two in one day!!!! Awesome!!!
Yeah!!
25:20 what a great happy ending
I wish I could find the version of pippi longstocking that aired as one of things. I mostly remember that should could teleport around.
Same here
That's Frank Welker as O.G. Readmore, the guy who played Duke on G.I. Joe as Bollo, and the original story is by Art Buchwald of all people.
"The FRIGHT Zone!!!"
Also known as Wal-Mart after midnight!
I was born in 1972, and I still want a Fright Zone!
Cool!
This video is why I am Patreon! I have things to do and it’s so much easier with awesome videos!
Yes! Thank you!
Memories
21:50 Run Bollo Run!
I love The Bollo Caper almost looks like Disney done this 1
I laughed way to hard at the extinct joke
That was Atreyu in the Ovaltine commercial.
😮😮😮🥲🥲🥲 I haven't seen this since I was six, and I can tell you how this story ends. The opening and everything O.G. Readmore. Hell even the dude from Sha Na Na Na Na!! I remember. Hell the voice actor is Prowl voice from Transformers!!
43:00 Melba Moore! 47:00 Lainie Kazan!
Does anyone remember one of these movies had a kid who collected straws and built things in his room with them?? Like a Ferris wheel. I can’t remember anything else.
Love the 80s. These days can never compare.
If only there was a way to turn back time, and go back to the 80s.
Bash-a-saurus!!Bash-a-saurus!! Bash-a-saurus!!Bash-a-saurus!!
Bash-a-saurus!!Bash-a-saurus!!
lol
Nice. I like the Masters of the Universe.
28:52 ABC should bring back
I miss the abc weekend specials. Good times. Been looking for the winged colt, but can't find it anywhere
good luck finding that one.
Today's children just don't know what real animation was like and great story telling. There is no place for Saturday morning cartoons. It's all about on demand pay tv now. Kids will never know what real tv time was like ...
I build Time machines for real. I’ll tell you how to do it.
Anything you can create in the present time that will live in the future you get to go into the future by surviving like a tree, and I can go back in time by finding what is living that was planted along time ago …
Pyramids crumble overtime, but living always stays fresh through duplication😊
I love these shows so much thank you I talk bout you on my CZcams Live stream #HashInfo
You rock!
Two errors here: the Bunjee cartoon you have here is not Return of Bunjee but the first two-part special The Bunjee Venture from 1984. And while The Velveteen Rabbit cartoon here was produced in 1985, it is not the one that aired on ABC Weekend Special. You have the one that was produced by Atkinson Arts Films for HBO and FHE. The one that aired on the Weekend Special was produced by Hanna-Barbera's Australia studio. The Hanna-Barbera one did get video releases through Kids Klassics and Anchor Bay, both licensed from ABC.
That said, it's still a nice attempt at recreating the Weekend Special experience. The bumpers and commercials are a nice touch.
I guess I did a great attempt.
@@MoneMedia It is a great attempt. It's difficult to find some of this material, especially the live action OG Readmore wraparounds. My taped off the air copy of Velveteen Rabbit (from July 1989) is missing the wraparounds but I do have the preview for Two Minute Werewolf on it. I used to have Return of Bunjee but that tape got stolen along with two boxes of my VHS tapes during a move 23 years ago.
...is that Frank Welker as Capt. OG Readmore?
Now I got the Ovaltine commercial stuck in my head....
imagine if that stuff actually worked like that
Yeah really..the kid in the Ovaltine ad looks like atreyu from neverending story
Nice - 1976 here
🎧🔥
Not feeling compilations,prefer in original format but love the memories, thanks
No worries!
My favorite one is how to eat fried worms
maybe 'The Magic Pearl' too
I checked and no I dont have that
@@MoneMedia Well I found it and uploaded it. Here's the link, please spread the word. czcams.com/video/JXDU4KP_57I/video.html
Oh yeah that 1
👍👍
😁👍
You are a saint doing gods work 😊...and i dont believe in god but sure love yiu man
I wish it was 1980
Anybody remember the one set in China or Japan and it had the angry ghost that wanted her stolen stuff back?
Two brothers stole it, a girl goes to get the stuff back, there's a witch with a haunted house and she turns people into pigs.
that was in cbs story break
@@MoneMedia I found it! It was The Magic Pearl from the ABC weekend special. It's a bit different then I remember, but I will never forget that ghost!
Hey! Is the volume gone? I'm excited for this but don't hear anything 🤔
its coming, they are still checking copyrights.
Ok cool beans.. ill be waiting 🤪🤩🌈
@@chrisichicool4336 been watching these all morning 🌞💯

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
That was a lucky break for Bollo.
Do you happen to have a compilation of ABC Weekend Special 1984 year, because I believe ABC aired The Return of the Bunjee in 1984?
ive been looking for return of bunjee cant find it anywhere. I even tried to purchase it
1:40:55 Hungry evil plant
I wonder if you happen to have 'The Horse That Played Centerfield'
No Sam sorry
Weekend special guest stars Ricky UILMAN
so the kids are old enough to be in school but can't figure out what batteries are?
...So all the criminals in the first one basically just get off scott free?
1:23:40, this is The Bunjee Venture not 'The Return of The Bunjee' , you'll need to change that and look over your sources
🌞🌞👋👋☕☕👍👍😎😎💯💯
Where the hell did you find these????😎
intensive search
@@MoneMedia well you are intensely appreciated 🙂

Bill Clinton killed the Saturday Morning Cartoon by requiring new "educational" standards.
started with Ronald
@@MoneMedia And by the start of the new millennium, Saturday morning TV as we knew it was over.
OMG that’s Chad Allen from Our House and Dr. Quinn Medicine Woman in the He-Man commercial.
