About the curation
The rule for 1972 is simple: every clip has to be a single thing that happened in 1972. A live broadcast, a released movie scene, an aired commercial, a news segment, a charting performance, a game moment. No "best of the 1970s" lists. No retrospectives. No reactions. Suggestions and removals go to hello@timesurf.tv, and the full filter is documented on the About page.
