Prevue Channel: December 24, 1996 (Christmas Eve):
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=YWuypIM2Ts0
This one features "Prevue's Holiday Spotlight". Basically a holiday version of "Network Spotlight" and "Cable Spotlight" for Christmas movies and specials. Also, notice how the barker palette at the left and right hand corner, which are used for cable name, channel and titles had a Christmas Wreath for previews? Very decorative! And of course, 3D Model Prevue Channel Holiday IDs, Pay-Per-View movies Prevue promo and more!

Prevue Channel (1995): Mr. Positive
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iD16nun9XKc
An alternative version of the "Mr. Positive" commercial that was shown on the Prevue back in May, 1995. After finding this online, I just inserted the Prevue footage intertwined with the video and tweaked the audio. I hope the original version someday will be found along with the "Sneak Prevue" promo with the criminal trying to return the tapes at a local video store.

Thanks for the shout out. This was even uploaded today by Vulprisian Academy of Sciences (which I'm even Subscribed too).woddfellow2 wrote: ↑Wed Oct 18, 2023 7:54 pm From Jones Intercable in Orland Park, IL (Chicago DMA) on 1991-06-25: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nAKBJosrr-8

Also, for those that missed out on the Prevue Discord...
Prevue Guide 1990 Station ID (in High Quality!)
You may have already seen this station ID a couple of times before, but this digital video transfer is in high quality. Not to mention, no Guru Meditation errors!

Then, we got this random channel surfing clip:
Prevue Channel, October 5, 1994
Santa Barbara, CA (Los Angeles DMA), unknown cable system (see 7:11 and 14:12)
Courtesy of: USA & CANADA TV from 90s-00s
This one also was missing the program guide listings data which said: "No Data, call for download." Then later, the listings were restored, but it did not have the Closed Captioning NCI logo. The missing logo instead showed "(CC)" for Closed Captioning before Prevue later changed it to a white "CC" box. Also, this one also still had the Spring 1993 Prevue Guide logo instead of the updated Prevue Channel branding.
Prevue Channel, December 16, 1994
From Comcast of Central New Jersey (both New York City and Philadelphia DMAs)
Courtesy of: Vulprisian Academy of Sciences
Here's a unusual Prevue Channel setup: In this video, this was recorded at the moment when Comcast of Central New Jersey abruptly cut away from the championship bout of the Ultimate Fighting Championship IV, which was interrupted two minutes before 11 PM ET as Comcast did not allow any extra time for the PPV event and automatically switched feeds to the Prevue Channel before when the live coverage was over (Comcast pulled a "Heidi Bowl" moment for the UFC PPV event).
Also, this Prevue Channel Amiga unit still had the Spring 1993 Prevue Guide banner (from the early days of the blue grid update) instead of the updated Prevue Channel banner and Comcast in Central New Jersey tried to replace the Prevue Channel with Sneak Prevue the following month. They would however bring back the Prevue Channel later, but it was channel shared with Sneak Prevue (they would have the Prevue Channel feed on for 25 minutes, then they would automatically switch over the Sneak Prevue feed for 5 minutes before going back to the main Prevue Channel feed). This Comcast system did not have expanded cable at the time, so this must have been inconvenient just to see what was on TV.
Then, some more channel surfing clips:

Then some TV Guide Channel Hollywood clips (some taken from random channel surfing):

Re: New youtube videos
An Electronic Program Guide video recording has recently surfaced.
Comcast in New Jersey (both New York and Philadelphia markets), July 14, 1988
This may have been from either Monmouth, Ocean or Middlesex Counties in New Jersey when this Electronic Program Guide Senior video was taken.
