I also liked David Gray, and I did his workouts alot in the eighties.
I also liked the Jane Fonda Pregnancy Workout. I did that alot when I was expecting, and the breathing exercises really helped me. Now, the Aerobicise workouts on Showtime were porn!

And I have AeroChi and still do it occasionally. I file it with my NIA-type cardio as it's in that general style. She's a bit too artsy cool but I've seen worse and the workout itself and the production are good.
I think it's just hard for people to separate out their personal feelings from the quality of the video itself when they have a really strong reaction to it. Karen N did put together a compilation tape of many of these for some VF get-togethers back in the day. That was pre-DVD. The Sports Illustrated workouts were not on it because people were actually using them at the time. Zack Lee, Greer, the 20 Minute ladies, Maria in her heels, and Zsa Zsa were. This was also back when Collage boasted they carried something like 258 exercise videos and didn't have clips on-line, but could at least be counted on not to carry the worst of the bad 90s stuff. The biggest thing I get from this list is a sense of how far the industry has come from the era in which people paid as much for a Firm VHS as for the TV they played it on because the alternatives were so few and so often truely horrid.

I have the Aerochis and also have always liked them.
Maybe if the TAs had never been seen before and were shown at a VF gathering now, most would have the same negative reaction to them. Barb S whose workout treasures are often other people's trash and vica versa
