one thing that i hate about commercials is they do not show the real thing. for example, brushing your teeth is a foamy task; in the toothpaste commercials their mouths’ are dry. another example, who in the hell can shave their face with one swipe. thing i do like, especially about the 80’s and the early 90’s, is that they were funny and very convincing; still today i buy products based on those commercials
S.W. Graham cereal was very likely named in honor of Sylvester Graham (1794-1851), the Presbyterian minister and health lecturer who invented Graham crackers and believed a high-fiber diet would prevent people from having impure thoughts, and thereby stop masturbation.
“Mom, I spilled grape juice on the carpet!” “That’s OK!” “You have stain-resistant carpet?” “No, I just popped some ‘ludes and I don’t give a sh*t!”…I never did believe that dumb “I called Phoenix, I got Fiji” ad…Talking cereal boxes: creepy!…Singing, dancing toilets still make me laugh, I’m ashamed to say…I would be freaked if Sugar Bear just showed up in my bedroom!…How cool is it that Penny Gill posted here? Your Beau was a wonderful-looking cat, Penny–no wonder you miss him so.
He was so pretty! I know you must miss Bo dearly. Though, trust and believe you will see him again! I remember seeing that commercial too! I was about 19-20! Time flew! God Bless..
That was ME and my dearly departed Tonkinese cat, Beau, in the Whiskas commercial! My friend found this. The Internet did not exist when the commercial was shot at my home in January, 1989. Loved (and miss) the big hair…and sweet Sugar Beau.
I was twelve. TV was much better in the “old days”, from the advent of the medium up til about the early 1990s, when things started to change..more choice, far less quality.

In the mayonaise commercial, close your eyes and Open your earss. That Damn sure sounds like Patti Mayonaise from “Doug”!

Not really, TV has, more or less, always sucked.
If that family in the Extra commercial were any more white, they’d start turning black.
All I did was Google man calls Phoenix getsFiji. It took longer to log on than it did to get exactly what I wanted, life is good every now and then.
damn!
kellogs and cadburys both started off in the UK and are now a global sensation.
These are great! 🙂
Is it weird that I remember every single one of these commercials?
