1977 on TV
702 curated clips across 6 categories.
Star Wars redefines cinema, Elvis dies, and Atari 2600 ushers in home gaming.
Pull up the 1977 channel and you get music videos, movies and TV, and commercials, more or less in that order of weight. No recommendation feed is doing the picking. The catalog stops at the edges of 1977 and the player just flips through it, the way a remote used to flip through a cable box at the end of a long day.
