It’s Sunday across America, so…
Let’s lighten things up today. I’ll start out by complaining. 😛
The TV commercials of today are so stupid. They really appeal to a child’s mindset. They insult my intelligence. Who thinks up these juvenile things anyway, and who
exactly do the TV executives think they appeal to?
There are some real doozies out there. I feel a “Whaaa?” is in order here [pulls
up corner of lip].
It takes a lot to impress me. If you want to sell me something, you’d
better appeal to wit, to cleverness, and not to slapstick; granted, that’s just
me, and so-called "wit" is in the eye of the beholder... I guess. [more pulling up of lip].
Some commercials make it and some don’t. The populace-at-large will decide that. I remember liking some of the vintage ones. My favorite of all time was probably the VW Bug commercial; maybe because
I once had a VW.
Yep, you couldn't kill a Bug, no matter how hard you tried. 🤣
So, do you have any favorite TV commercials, vintage or
otherwise? Please post them for our amusement, and in prep for and temporary escape from, next week's upcoming circus. I will also post some of the other ones that were very popular back in the day.
Thanks for recommending!
