πΊπ Everyone have a wonderful evening. π π§ Friday Night Videos Hall of Fame! with original commercials - 1983 #A1MusicVideo #Music #TVseries https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=lcb8Wyt-aPA&list=RDlcb8Wyt-aPA&start_radio=1 #FridayNightVideos #FridayNightVideos1983 Friday Night Videos is an American music video show that was broadcast on NBC from July 29, 1983, to May 24, 2002. It was the network's attempt to capitalize on the emerging popularity of music videos as seen on MTV. In its early years, MTV was still a phenomenon that only a minority of Americans actually could see in their homes, as there were many areas not yet serviced by cable television (particularly rural areas and inner-city neighborhoods), and not all cable television providers offered MTV at first. Friday Night Videos took advantage of that fact and proved to be the next best thing for many viewers. While it primarily showcased music videos by popular top 40 acts of the day, unlike its cable rival, Friday Night Videos tended to offer more variety. As such, it featured artists from the genres of pop, rock, R&B, and rap. Let's travel back to 1983.
