Sebak's first foray in the nostalgia documentary is the 1984 documentary Shag for South Carolina ETV, about a dance popular in the region. Four years later at WQED, Sebak produced The Mon, The Al & The O, about the Monongahela, Allegheny, and Ohio rivers, which meet to form at Pittsburgh's Golden Triangle; and Kennywood Memories, about Kennywood, a historic local amusement park.
On September 28, 1988, the local PBS station, WQED, aired Kennywood Memories, a one-hour documentary about Kennywood, narrated by Rick Sebak. Although many of the rides featured in the documentary have since been removed, the historic information about the park is still accurate. Kennywood was featured in the 2007 documentary "Welcome Back Riders".
