Introducing the TV remote control!

Back when TV really mattered, you had to get up to change channels! Not anymore with this new contraption called a ‘remote control.’ I wonder if this idea will catch on. 1961 promotional movie.

Those old tv’s glowed in the dark when you shut them off after being on for awhile.
Love that guy’s dialect….. “TINT! KULLER! …. AWN-AWFF!”
a friend of mine had one of these. They must have had it for 30 years. The remote didn’t work with IR. It actually had bells in it and the tv detected the bell noise.
Is this JFK? Sounds like him.
why does the video end with a styrofoam star dangling above an oilfield fire??

TV’s of now offer superior resolution, color balance, contrast ratio, enjoyment, but; what happens when it stops working, It’s thrown out. That is the nature of integrated circuits. Yes, without them we would not have nearly the technology we have today, there is something amiss about the ability to replace a small part and have it work again, Usually a bad tube. But why do most new items have to be made of such cheap materials? That’s inexcusable, not the advancement of technology
The narrator has such a bad accent! Luckily, the actress was a babe so people would still watch the movie and buy a fine RCA product!

When was the last time you heard of a television failing from use (and not abuse)?
How many TV-repairmen do you know of today?
No thank you, I will take my LCD any day of the week over that thing.
Where can I get this “ultimate in television”? I will get my husband to move it around since it looks like it weighs a ton!
@StereoMike06 and that’s the reason why most of it still works because it’s quality…
I’m sure most of the stuff people have today will not work or even excist anymore in 30 years
“you can operate every control, all seven functions” - life seems so simple back then …
@LanceHall My flatscreen Coby does that.
@spotikas About as big as a dish network remote.
@StereoMike06 Why did they quit doing that? Where they too heavy and expensive?
My FaltScreen Coby does that to.
its very big remote
“amazing when did this happen all my life i had to get put and use options it must be every hard to find on for any tv and they must cost a furtion”
You’re TV-Free, too? Fantastic!
@megaswenson Agreed.
wait i dont need to get up to change the channels or volume holy crap when does it come out?
great invention,
I can’t wait until this comes out.
It’s just that now you can adjust all of those things on the TV’s menu.
Damn, can you imagine that? What next?
