Favourite Retro Commercials

Oh, you just know (or at least hope) that the guy who came up with this one got a big bonus. I was a teenager when this first came out, and I could smell the pheromones through the TV set!

Ah! One of my all time favourites as a kid -- the thing is, they only played it on CKLW-TV, the station Detroit got from Windsor. Truly a classic!

Sad, isn't it? But remember we also had Mary Tyler Moore turning the world on with her smile.

The most impressionable images were the white carpets and huge white couches in the TV series living rooms. What no mud in the States?
I loved Mary Tyler Moore

Nope. None whatsoever. On the other hand, when I'm at work I come across a lot of grime and disgusting piles of goo...

My oldest sister passed that game down to me when I was five or six years old. Obviously I never learned how to play it right...or something.
