    AS a gift to myself on the 4th of July, I thought I’d watch Episode 1 again. Great to see how it all started. Even back then the episodes were engaging and interesting. Cheers!

    I feel like I’ve been watching WLTV forever but today was the first time I got around to watching your first episode. And what a beaut! A little quieter than the manic garyvee we have today, but the passion shines through so strong. More power to ya!

    Gary,
    Been watching since late Dec 2007, but figured it was time to head back to the beginning. It is amazing to know where WLTV is know and see where it was back when it started. I love that you go into more detail now about the wines as it helps drive what wines I may want to seek out. A great idea and as evident by close to 700 episodes now, this show is a sure thing.

    Like the old style format, even if it is a real drastic difference from the origional one.

    QOTD: Where did all that hair go?

    I too had to see how it all started. So amazing that all the episodes are online. Love watching Gary do his thing, whether on the interwebs or at conferences. Always an inspiration.

    Needed to see where the journey started. Not wine drink…but the excitement in contagious…and I love the police sirens.

    Hey Gary, you’ve come a long way and I’ve learned a lot about web 2.0 by watching you. Incredible to think that your children’s children will one day watch these gems. I’m going to try to watch all of your back episodes and figure out when you first say sniffy sniff and when you start using the Jets bucket. You are an unlikely role model but I’ve been drawn in like a moth to a flame!

    Cheers, Billy Gadol

    Awesome. I like to watch your old vids when there is not a new show and I realized today that I hadn’t seen the first one. I could tell you weren’t as comfortable as you are now. The beginning rumblings of the thunder. Great job!

    Hi Gary,

    Fasinating to see how it all started.

    A real inspiration – 3 years on it is amazing to look back and I know you said on GaryVaynerchuk.com that it took 18 months of “hustle” before anyone took any notice.

    As ever always fun to look back at the first episode.

    Cheers

    ahahahahah! Episode 1 is a classic Gary, deserves better than an old school Quicktime player. You should bring those old episodes into Viddler, they definitely are on the “must see” list, people need to know how this all started! Great inspiring journey so far, thanks for showing us the way to innovation through true passion!

    I am making a DVD for my mom because she doesn’t have Internet. I sent her an autographed copy of 101 Wines, and she loved it. I had to watch the genesis of WLTV. Great job Gary.

    WoW! very interesting to see the first show again after the more recent episodes :) I thought that i would try to post a comment about episodes 1-500. Especially as Gary was going to possibly give a 4th gen wristband to all the commenters on a random episode!

    Also, just for something a little different, I will leave a little 500 word review of WLTV. One. Word. At. A. Time. In the next 500 episode comments. Cheers all! Dan

    First word: “Daring”

    I am not a wine drinking but I enjoy first episode but I don’t think this show will ever get a lot of viewers. O wait we are in 2008 now. Never mind I guess I was wrong. (hehe) Plus I enjoy the sirens in this episode. http://corkd.com/img/btn-addcomment.gif

    Since I started drinking wine, it just hit me that I have been using wine metaphors to describe things. I guess that’s “wine imitating life” or wine philosophy of some sort.

    Anyway, this episode is like a bottle of good bordeaux that just got opened, if that makes sense — The flavors have not exploded yet.

    Just watched your first video, how long do you think it will take me to make it through them all?

    I had to comeback and watch the start. Man, how you and the show have progressed! I can tell you guys have upgraded the camera!! And your style and reviews have come a long way, it’s great to see!

    Thanks for keeping up the old shows, I don’t know why more folks don’t leave more content up on there web-sites! Especially wineries!

    Hi Gar,

    Came back to watch this one as I only know your recent (vibrant exuberance) personality…

    wow, my oh my, how far we’ve come… especially on descriptions… (”great nose, good color, good balance…. ” that was it!!!), thank God for all your adjectives now…

    best from Costa Rica again…

    This episode cracks me up beyond belief.

    Between the video quality, multiple glasses, the lack of energy (well…the GV levels that I’ve gotten to know) and “Vaynerchuk” being a single word, I don’t recognize the show at all. I am looking forward to seeing how the shows evolved.

    (Excellent show, btw :) Great start!)
