Gosh, so much nostalgia in this – I can’t believe what managed to get on television back then
So 69 minutes was a music video block hosted by Claire Westfield – had a huge crush on her back in the day because she was hot and she liked all the weird and underground music that was out there – a lot of the videos they played didn’t get normal airplay. She went through a few different hair colors and styles, but generally she was wearing the bare minimum she could get away with on TV
Jerry Summer is so surreal looking back on it – former mayor of Cincinatti turned trash TV talk show host – I will probably remember the Nude Nuns Who Love Guns until the day I die
Prisoner of the Ghouls was one of those movies that was a fever dream to me. I remember catching the very end of it once at like 2:00 AM and the visuals just stuck with me. When they showed it again on Terrorvision it blew my mind – it’s a crazy plot about an accountant who gets kidnapped by an organized crime syndicate and then falls in love with one of her masked captors – could never get made today and honestly I don’t even know how they got it made in the 1980s.
GCW: Monday Night Meltdown was one of the two big pro wrestling programs- yeah, the other was NCW: War Zone. They both really pushed the envelope a lot and it’s hard to appreciate pro wrestling now if you grew up watching this. The wrestler in the clips is Summer Hayes, who at that time was wrestling under the name “American Summer.” It was an all American gimmick with an edge to it, because after they built her up as a superhero they turned her heels and she started coming out in a black thong and stockings under the name “Hollywood Haze.”
