NBC FALL CAMPAIGN 2001 

"Ask yourself this: When was the last time you sat completely still, and watched yourself, in someone else?" Wow, I'm floored by this perspective. My mind has been opened!

After 9/11, the nation needed "comfort entertainment" and it was all on NBC. Friends was the #1 show that season and for good reason, it just made everyone feel better.

That was the most fantastically somber promo for NBC's fall lineup in 2001. Especially after what happened on 9/11 that year.

Actually, this aired the following Monday after the attacks.....even though it was terrible I loved this promo. I reflected America as a whole.

I can't believe all of this shows are over... I miss them so much... 1990-2004 were the best television years

I miss NBC in 2001...all those awesome shows...

i watch FRIENDS on DVD every night as i fall asleep. i have the best dreams. :)

Friend is by far one my favorite shows of all time

I like the piano arrangement. Does anyone know the name of it?

does anyone know what song this is playing in the background???

omgsh... i remember when this aired. i LOVED nbc that season... they had a lot of great stuff. my personal obsession was friends.

In the Heart of Alabama on NBC 13 We've Got You Covered.

could you upload FOX FALL CAMPAIGN 2001?

So this promo actually aired BEFORE 9/11. I thought for sure it was going to be the post-9/11 promo with the sad music and all but the 9/17 start date came and went and, I believe, most shows didn't begin until early October.

music by Adam Cohen

Yeah, me too!

If this promo aired prior to the attacks, then the piano music must be representing NBC looking back at it's first 75 years of existence; not on what happened to the Twin Towers and the people in it.

@JaimiMarieLovesMusic And who do you think really was behind those attacks ?

i can't believe ALL those shows (besides law & order) are over now. :/

the trailer is pretty cool! in 2001 when NBC was the Nr. 1 Network.... And now?

@siren7193 This was just after 9/11 happened.

what a great campaign... NBC should hve at least done something on their 80th? anniversary... instead of feeling sorry for themselves of being in 4th...

@0:50 Was that Matthew poking Courteney's chin? awwwwww I miss Friends

Sit completely still and watch ? Is that what the US Governement is expecting from everyone to do ?!

Wow, this didn't even air after 9/11 - the season got pushed back a week or two after that day. Cheestastic!

This was around the period Jeff Zucker assumed control as programmer of NBC's prime-time schedule, bringing with him the expertise he learned as executive producer of "THE TODAY SHOW"....which didn't help anyone at all, as he didn't know HOW to keep NBC "#1" from 2001, on- today, he's in charge of NBC/Universal- and out of day-to-day programming decisions, which promises to be even more of a dismal future for the network....

1993-2001 to be more accurate.

LOL!
