70's Commercials Vol. 98

Описание: These commercials aired on NBC on May 7th, 1979

1. NBC Monday Night At The Movies Intro: "Rollercoaster" (A 1977 disaster movie starring George Segal)
2. AMC Concord
3. Kentucky Fried Chicken (Amazing to post an ad for KFC that actually has Col. Sanders in it!)
4. Visa
5. Dial Roll-On Antiperspirant (With Kelly Harmon)
6. Ball Park Hot Dogs (3:25 hard to believe, but that's actually what a microwave oven looked like in 1979. More like a MACROwave!)
7. General Electric Food Processor
8. Bufferin (Bufferin ends the sufferin')
9. Vanish Toilet Bowl Cleaner (I wish I had been alive back then to see the iconic Vanish Toilet Bowl Cleaner Van in person, but alas...)
10. NBC Monday Night At The Movies Commercial Bumper
11. NBC News Update
a. Organized crime and Teamster leader Jimmy Hoffa may have been behind Kennedy assassination (Or...Lee Harvey Oswald acted alone, as all of the available evidence points to)
b. Raymond Lee Harvey arraigned for conspiring to kill President Carter (I guess we just need to keep tabs on anyone with the name Lee Harvey)
c. Gasoline Lines (A direct result of the 1978-79 Iranian Revolution, which destabilized world oil markets and caused the price of oil to nearly double)
d. Americans want to see R-rated movies on TV per TV Guide Poll
12. Ritz Crackers (With Andy Griffith)
13. Promo for "Greatest Heroes Of The Bible" (An anthology TV series depicting stories from the Old Testament that ran for one season)
14. Promo for "Hizzonner" (A short-lived sitcom starring David Huddleston, who was also executive producer. He is probably best known for his role as "The Big Lebowski")
15. Aquafresh Toothpaste (This commercial is so low budget that they actually chroma keyed them into a photo of a drugstore instead of building a set)
16. Stanley Garage Door Opener (7:24 This guy won probably every single David Niven lookalike contest that he entered)
17. KNBC News Bumper
18. NBC Monday Night At The Movies Commercial Bumper
19. Aim Toothpaste
20. Signal Mouthwash
21. 1979 Ford Wagons (Given the earlier story about gas lines, it's easy to see why enormous gas-guzzling station wagons like this soon went out of style. American auto manufacturers took several years to adapt, causing consumers to buy smaller, more fuel-efficient foreign cars and captive imports)
22. Lowenbrau
23. Promo for "Real People"
24. Kellogg's Frosted Mini-Wheats (In what world are these "mini"?)
25. Kraft Parkay Margarine
26. Glass Plus
27. Visine Eye Drops
28. Aquafresh Toothpaste (At least they could afford an actual shelf to put behind them for this one)
29. Honda Civic 1200 Sedan (With the voice of Burgess Meredith)
30. Schlitz Light Beer (With George Burns)
31. Best Foods Mayonnaise
32. NBC Monday Night At The Movies Commercial Bumper
33. Promo for "Chevy Chase National Humor Test" (Can be seen here:    • Chevy Chase - National Humor Test 1979 TV ...  )
