Originally released in December 1986, "Rent-a-Friend" created a media buzz worldwide, appearing on Oprah, David Letterman, CNN, People Magazine and every major newspaper coast to coast. It's the perfect oddball gift, not to mention a piece of American media history.

Spend 42 minutes with your devoted video friend, "Sam," who listens to your every word, asks you all about yourself, even hangs up the phone because he'd rather listen to you!
On this Reagan-era masterpiece of 1986-style “interactivity” you’ll:

*Play “Blockhead” with Sam
*Share your most embarrassing stories
*Cry over Sam’s dysfunctional childhood
*Find out why Oprah declared this amazing tape “Unbelievable!”

RENT-A-FRIEND is the perfect oddball gift, not to mention a piece of American media history.
