That’s likely more from personal preference and not having looked for it at the grocery store. I was more remembering the old monkey(?) commercials and everyone talking about it because it was from “NASA.”
My crazy friends and I used to mix a tang packet into a 600ml of jolt soda, which was just cola with extra caffeine… We spent a lot of time vibrating with energy after drinking it.
Popeye was one of my favorite shows I remember watching over and over and over again. Singing and acting it out. I also had recordings of the Pink Panther and I think one of, if not the first animated Superman movies or cartoons.
That’s also an old memory you unlocked of a home video of myself maybe 3-4 ish “playing Popeye” singing “Popeye the sailor man, toot toot!” and I would take a drink from my Dad’s cup pretending it was spinach and acting like my biceps popped out and then promptly sneezing in my Dad’s face.
I’m confused by your inclusion of Tang. I mean, in some places it’s still sold and consumed everywhere. Honey Lemon Tang is the bomb, btw.

Never knew Tang still existed. I only knew it during my childhood

And then the #&@)#% sportsball game before your show ran long, so your recording cut off before the end of the show because the tape ran out…
Ugh yesss. I forgot that was even a possibility.
What do you mean? It’s only been googles… 18 years… since… whoa…
When I was 2 or 3 year old our Family had a VCR. I still remember watching Popeye using VCR.

Good times.
I remember VCRs being mind-blowingly cool new tech. Only rich people had them. And colour TV. Who can afford that?
I remember my dad surprising us one night with a pizza and a rented VCR.
I remember hearing about color TVs, even seeing a few in stores but no way we could afford one …
Then my Dad signed up for a remote class through DeVry Institue of Technology (https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bell_%26_Howell) where the final project was to build a color TV!

Bro, Tang actually still exists!
