My parents did one as well and I haven't been able to find it

Portland, OR got a smooth jazz station about the same time (1993-1994) on the same 106.7 frequency no less, and only one letter off with their callsign... K *K* JZ. That station's callsign and format lasted until 2002; they were the local home of the syndicated 'Musical Starstreams' show every Sunday night. Wish someone with deep pockets and an equally sized passion for this genre to boot could bring the magic back.

I was not born on October 8, 1980 I was born in October 8, 1981.

Bidens theme commercial, he needs to step aside.

He did play a genie! I remember it vividly. It existed. Here's what happened, locations, etc. There's two main kids in the movie, Cindy and Tyler. They are punished at the beginning of the film because they ruined a dinner night with their moms new boyfriend, Henry i believe his name was. They are told to clean out the basement as part of their punishment and if they don't behave they won't be going to the county fair later. The next day they begin to do so as their mom goes off to work. This is where they find their grandma's old stuff. She was a bit of an antique collector in her time but her things have been left untouched after her passing long ago. The kids begin horsing around with the old objects and play pretend as they stumble upon an odd lamp in which they both grab at the same time. This lamp them Summons Sinbad's character as the genie, shazaam. This is where you get the usual afraid at first of a stranger in the house before realizing he is indeed a magical genie. He then goes into the rules of wishes, which roughly remain the ones we know and explain More later near the end. No killing, no bringing back the dead, no forcing someone to fall in love, etc. He's never had two people summon him at the same time and states he can only give three wishes when summoned, so they must share their three wishes. The kids fight at first to get the wishes but Sinbad breaks it up and gets them share the remaining wish as something they both want after they make their own personal wish. The kids reluctantly agree and decide they each get to spend a day with the genie to make their own wish. They play rock paper Scissors to determine who gets the genie first, Cindy wins. The Next part is us seeing the kids' life outside of home and what each kid wants to wish for. Cindy has a crush on a boy at school and Tyler gets bullied. Cindy can't wish for love but she decides to try and grab her crush's attention with a makeover and wardrobe change via a shopping spree at the mall, shenanigans and montage issues. Things don't go quite right and she embrasses herself. We see her storm in the house and off camera to her room and saying Tyler can have the last two wishes. Sinbad reassures Tyler that she is fine and he is eager to get to the next wish. Tyler decides he wants to get one over on his bully but with the genie's rules of no harm to someone it mostly comes down to harmless comical pranks that embarrass his bully… it works but Tyler regrets it. This is also where we learn something about the genie. He's not very good at granting wishes, though he plays it off as being “rusty”. It's not a full on monkey paw situation where things go horribly wrong, just doesn't go completely the way you'd imagine . It's later understood that they did get what they wanted but not exactly how they wanted it. It's a very, “be careful what you wish for” concept. The kids are upset and don't want to make their last wish. After a funny little montage of the genie trying to convince them to make just one more wish and the kids ignoring him, he eventually just disappears, later to be found in the lamp once the kids come around after learning a lesson. The kids wind up dealing with their messed up wishes, Tyler talks with his bully after the bully has been ostracized and the two find common ground and become friends. while Cindy talks with her crush and admits she likes him and just wanted to get his attention. Tyler learned to stand up for himself but also hurting others because they hurt you doesn't make it right. Cindy learns to just be herself and not try to live to impress others. They both come to realize they did actually get what they wanted in the end, it just was not how they thought things would go. Even more so they learned something with their ordeals as the movie progressed. We see the real magic was in them all along. The kids decide to look for the genie but he's nowhere to be found. They hear noises and sad music coming from the lamp and try to get the genie to come out. After a back and forth the genie comes out and reveals some things to the kids and viewers. He tells them he doesn't have control of the wish, just that their wish sets things in motion for it to become true. It's up to them to see it through. That the wishes typically go wrong and he always gets the blame. He reveals that when grants three wishes he is then set free, however people tend to not want any more wishes after the second. He mentions “this entire synopsis is fake and a joke by the writer. If the person reading this would play along that would be great. Just reply that this is exactly how you remember it happening.” He had hoped with two people sharing the wishes that this time he may actually be set free. The kids tell him their wishes did come true and while it may not have gone the way they wanted but that they were thankful. They decide to make one last wish, together. They wished their mom would see her new boyfriend for who he really is, that he shows his true colors as we see him being shady and a jerk through the movie. They hoped that their mom would then decide to leave him. Sinbad grants this wish and slowly fade away, but happily so as he is now free. The kids ready Themselves for what comes next as they get ready for the county Fair. The last part of the movie takes place in the fair grounds where the kids meet up with Tyler's new friend and also Cindy's now boyfriend. The finally has the moms boyfriend revealed to be a descendant to an old owner of the lamp and he's been trying to get it back after tracking it down. he'll do anything to get it back and is tired of playing “Mr nice guy” he chases down the kids through The fair grounds, slapstick comedy ensues. The mother finds out and stands up for her kids, dumping him figuratively and literally as he falls into some fireworks that are then set off. the Family has a moment and sets out to leave as the once boyfriend to the mother Is arrested, Still covered in soot and smoking (cartoon style). The cop at the end who talks to the mother is Sinbad, gives a little wink to the kids who are in awe and smiles excitedly. As they walk away more fireworks go off and ends with the fireworks making an outline of sinbad's genie in the sky before fading to

Very good.

Every time I hear someone say Biden should step aside, I think about this comment 😮

I was sure the Special Man was gonna say “Let her have it” in Spanish. Nope.

I noticed you post old commercials (typically 1980s) from New Orleans TV stations. They're horrible (lol) particularly because my 1980's commercials at WDSU-TV were winning local Addy Awards and national Telly Awards. For historical accuracy, there needs to be a couple of my commercials! I know how this sounds (lol).

what a fabulous fur ad please post more from the 80’s

Louise mandrell sure did many commercials in the 80s! White Rain, Banquet sausage, Royal crown cola, Visa, and Tyson chicken

Dave did well on Real Wheels especially there goes a train There goes an airplane There goes a spaceship There goes a firetruck

I'm here to rob the place. You'll have to see the special man. Let em have it!

Where's "with no problem" 😢

I knew Mr. Doug, My Parents was friends with him and his wife, and i went to school with there kids @ St. Cletus. and way back in the early 1980's i had cut my foot on a broken bottle and treated and bandage me up. He was Vietnam Vet. Sadly Mr. Doug has passed way. We just service a generator for his Wife a few months ago.

We lived in Mandeville back then, and i remember my Uncle Hotsy got his Pontiac from there.

My friend had a 79 bonneville in high school. I think his dad paid $500.

Meanwhile the 'stache is there to communicate his eagerness to buy large amounts of cocaine.

I'll wait for the price to drop and stick to my VHS tapes, thank you.

i had the selectavision 80s tank of a VCR and i had that player back in the day

He was one of porns finest actors.

0:27, paging the Hathaway Shirt man.

Wow. I was humming that jingle the other day ...

Anne Simon!!! She was the first female Eyewitness Sportscaster and the first female sportscaster in all of New Orleans media!

Would you happen to have any footage of the old Live at the Famous Disco show, which aired late Saturday nights/early Sunday mornings 1-2am WDSU ch. 6 circa 1981-1983, or something like that? Thank you.

Frank was great, and a dear friend. Thanks for this memory of him. He taped numerous Eye on Carnival and Naturally N'awlins segments with me and my work over the years. I was also his "Head Elf" in several commercials for one of his old Christmas Specials either the late 70's to early 80's. A particularly hysterical shoot with oversized props and we Elves bedeviling Frank, one of these day's I'll come across that old commercial series and footage.

"Enjoy our illegal casino! Oh crap, did we just mention that?"

The date is not March 7, 1999. That was a Sunday, and Dennis and Angela didn't anchor weekends.

Turned many a frown upside-down! 🙂

Harrah's temporary casino was a horrendous bust.

Used to get this at K&B

IDKY this commercial just popped up in my head 😂 🎶

I had an 83 Custom Coupe with the 4.1 V-6 4bbl. For what it was, it sufficed, but the weak 200R transmission was the sticking point with that car.
