So it's come to this. It's Friday night, and I'm sitting at home watching a 25 year old Prevue Guide scroll. What the hell happened to me?!?

What happened to television that a 25 year old Prevue Guide scroll is more interesting than anything on the air now?!

Definitely nostalgia. I was 13-15 years old at the time and going through big changes in my life. Watching and definitely listening to these clips bring me back to those days when my mom, my brother and I were picking up the the family pieces after losing my father. Takes me back to those early relationships I had with girls...falling in love, having my heart broken. Also brings me back to those times just hanging with my friends, coming up with night and weekend plans. Some may say this is silly, but it was real...still is real to me. Thanks to you and all those who post these incredible time capsule videos. Enjoy your lives everyone. We won’t be here forever.

@@bbflorida3682 I’m right there with you. I remember this channel vividly and just happen to stop on this channel while makin’ out with the girl next door while her parents were gone for the weekend. Great times, amazing how something so simple as a scrolling guide can have such a positive impact forever.

The year is 1990. You come home from work one Friday night, cook dinner, sit down on your chair, turn on your television set and watch the Prevue Guide. You're then settled in for the weekend.

OK, thank you for this. I had this on in the background and ended up finding out the title of a movie that I only remembered a snippet of from when my Grandma was watching it back in the day on HBO - Richard Pryor as a blind guy driving a car, which ended up being "See No Evil, Hear No Evil". Also, the music brings me right back to the early 90's.
OMG!! I remember this!! Down to the music! I would spend hours watching this channel! Thank you!

This is just how I remembered it, slowly, slowly, waiting for the scroll to reach a certain point. Just a couple of years earlier, TNT had been on channel 35 and MTV was on channel 2. The next channels I remember being added were Prime Sports, the Learning Channel, and Sci-Fi when it debuted.

Dude, the Prevue Guide music, i remember it so well. It really brings back the memories. Can't tell you how many times i was searching for something to watch on Prevue Guide and after having found absolutely nothing of interest, i just left it there...auto scrolling and playing that music while i did other things...read books, played video games, talked on the phone, did house work. It was the official background music of my life in Oklahoma City for about 9 years. I discovered MST3K on it, watched it every Saturday at about 10AM. Thanks a million for uploading this.

I was four years old in 1990 but I remember growing up with The Prevue Guide and TWC. Sometimes it was nice just to watch the channels scroll by, listen to the music and see all the different previews. Very simple times. I miss things like these, so it’s nice to see others upload a full hour, heck, even a few minutes of it.

I don't remember the original scroll, only the blue one that came later on. I'd often watch it in mysterious curiosity. I couldn't read at the time so it was fascinating. Maybe it was the music.

So please, do tell, why do you get channels from Topeka _and_ Kansas City? If I can hear about a possible bomb on Mass St from KSNT, that makes you part of NE KS. But, at the same time, you (and the federal Government, for some reason) consider yourselves a part of the Kansas City Metro in the Census.

Over the air, Kansas City stations were generally more powerful, non-directional, and much easier to receive. Back in the analog days, Topeka stations had directional antennas pointing in the other direction. We lived in northwest Lawrence, and Kansas City stations were picture-perfect without cable.
