    2. I keep saying that, too. It may be a bit harder to get the older clips (my guess) but I wonder if that's it, or if all things were equal, they are intentionally just focusing on the past 30 years in these videos. Perhaps I'm not the norm, but I would love to see the older and rare clips of scenes from the show's history, even if it's something from before my time.
