-
The adult in me is in Awww at Tide being $1.69 😍
-
Man I miss that film look of the 80's-90's. Now everything is shot in digital and looks like the life has been sucked out of it.
-
"Promo for "The Cosby Show", "Alf", "The Golden Girls", "Empty Nest", "Cheers" and "Night Court" (Hard to believe NBC had this many hit shows once)" This must have been sweeps week for the Networks. Usually that's what was going on when they stacked all those shows on a Monday night like that.
-
Kurtwood Smith from That '70s Show in the ad for True Believer. Don't trespass in the area of Witness Protection or he'll put a boot up your a$$.
Also, does anyone know who sings the jingle in that Gillette ad? He did a ton of those in the '80s. -
I don't ever see commercials now, but there sure use to be a lot of loud and annoying characters hawking products. It must be the MTV effect. In the mid-'80s, MTV started getting more brash and goofy VJ's.
-
Don't get the hate, I think Tenuta is kinda cute
-
Holy crap, that Judy Tenuta is something.
-
That Michelob advert campaign ran from '86-'89. They also used "In the Air Tonight" besides the already mentioned Wang Chung "To Live and Die in L.A." and Eric Clapton "After Midnight"
-
Genesis had 15 years of albums prior to Invisible touch. The US started to know them gradually through the 70s and more so through the 80s, thanks in large part to Phil COllins' solo career that started in 1981 was at its peak around the mid 80s when Tonight Tonight Tonight and the Invisible Touch albums were on the charts a couple of years before this block aired. In the AIr Tonight by Collins was also in Michelob ads back then.
-
Totally had those Agassis back in the day. The orange and purple ones. Hilarious.
-
Was Agassi really wearing a toupee back then? he was still fairly young, and when his hair thinned he went with the bald look.
That Maybelline ad girl sat down like a guy (13:04) -
I have the best bra to use. My hands. 😜
-
There's a quadruple helping of "Madam Judy" Tenuta from The Weird Al Show, just as annoying as she was there!
Unsub - The series that chronicles thousands of users from YouTube Gaming channels losing their subscriptions! (true story lately)
The Main Event was AWESOME. Primetime major network wrestling! -
0:23 YIKES!!
-
In the first Nike ad, we see members of the Samburu tribe, with a tribesman saying something in the Samburu language to translate as "Just do it" at the end. Translated in English, the tribesman actually says "I don't want these. Give me bigger shoes!"
-
Full Exposure:The SEX TAPES Scandal-that announcer sold it there lol
Michelob-i also liked the ads with Wang Chung's "To Live & Die in L.A" and Eric Clapton's"After Midnight"
Unsub-..wonder if Paul M.Glaser made a guest star appearance -
Dope. Thank you
-
Today "Unsub" would be a movie about people unsubscribing from Youtube channels.
