Subject: Find an episode of any TV show that aired the day you were born.

Written By: TwilightPrince16 on 03/11/18 at 11:15 am

This episode of "The Price is Right" came out came out the same day I was born. It shows how dated the early 2000s are now.

"Graduation Day (Part 2)" of Buffy the Vampire Slayer aired on the same day I was born (07/13/99). It was the Season 3 finale.

This is the closest thing I could find to the full episode (legally):

These are some commercials that aired during the broadcast:

It's pretty cool that a big show from back then had it's season finale the same day that I was born.

This episode of Family Matters aired the same day I was born, of course it was a Valentine special ;D

And someone on youtube started uploading commercials aired on specific dates of 1997 for some reason, which is great for me. Here's from the date I was born (02/14/1997):

This reeks of the "silly" factor.  I don't actually know how many of you were watching the Monster Squad which aired on NBC on September 11, 1976, but what I just witnessed here is silly.  ::) ::) ::) ::)
What the actual hell was this show supposed to be anyhow?

I was just under 23 years away from being born.

However, my parents were both 13 years old when that aired. I don't think they know of it.

There were NO TV shows on the day I was born, June 5, 1946.  I think TV existed in an experimental form, but it was not commercially available (would you believe it?)

You're the same age as my mother (sorry if I'm making you feel old :-[). However, you're older than her by a month and 28 days (she was born on May 29, 1963) :D.

Wow. :o

I think I remember watching that episode when it first aired. That day was a Friday, and I was at home on most days during the month (on break from my studies at the university).

As for me, I probably cannot find any eps of any TV shows that aired in July of 1980, unless they were reruns.

I'll add another one, skip to 0:20 to see a little boy with a Gameboy Color and a Discman. And the little boy refers to himself in third person as "Timmy" and funny thing, Timothy is actually my first name.

"Timmy" was a "living doll." The woman in the scene was a witch who created him. The actor, Josh Ryan Evans was actually about 17 when he started on the soap-but had achondroplasia, a form of dwarfism. What was really sad was the day they aired Timmy's death scene, Josh Ryan Evans died. So, character & actor died on the same day.  :\'( :\'( :\'( :\'( He was only 20 years old.

FYI: Josh Ryan Evans also played a young Grinch in How the Grinch Stole Christmas.

I didn't find any TV shows but I found a news clip, some commercials and a concert from July 11th, 1980.

These commercials and the news clip are from San Francisco though not Los Angeles (where you're from :P)

Wow, I watched the whole thing, that was very corny. I guess some things don't change ;D

This episode of Roseanne aired the day I was born. Surprisingly, it doesn't look as dated as it should (except Ronnie's hideous fashion). The main standout to me is that they reference the 1960s a lot and make it sound very recent (which it was). 1968 was 25 years ago then, and now it's 50 years ago :o

One of my favorite shows growing up was Frasier, and the Season 3 episode "High Crane Drifter" aired the day I was born 22 years ago 8).

One of the most iconic moments in Frasier occurs in this scene when Niles stands up for his brother against a stereotypical 'shark'. Many years later and I still love this scene ;D.

I do know that there was a band called The Jam, popular primarily in its native UK at the time; they specialized in punk and new wave.

Here's one from the most exciting show of the era, Press Your Luck (2/22/1985) which I couldn't see at the time in my TV market because of pre-emptions, but I did see it when reran on USA in the '90s and GSN in the '00s.
