I know it sounds corny, but thank you for posting these commercials. Many days, this quick trip back in time is the only thing that keeps me sane!! Thank you.

3:41 - Wow, who would have thought that this guy who has no dialogue in this commercial would one day become one of the most successful actors in New York stage history.

I remember this Santa commercial for the TV at Good Guys! And I miss the Good Guys store too!! Also, Builders Emporium and Circuit City!! 🎁 🙋🎄

9:31 "Grab a kid and go see it" What if I don't have a kid? doesn't matter, just grab one and go see it

Thanks for the memories! 👍

Why is Grape Nuts so crunchy even though they’re so small? Easy. That crunching is actually the sound of your teeth breaking.

The Blue Diamond Almond Farmers feel really similar to the Ocean Spray Cranberry Farmers from the 2000's. I seriously wonder if that's a coincidence or if the people who made those commercials used to watch these all the time.

I miss those days

Throw Momma "Off" the Train was pretty edgy for it's time.

Thank you!

California's very own Santa sure gets around! As for Circuit City, I'm sure that Santa has a slightly different name.

How am I supposed to call you Clare, if you don't send me the phone till after I order!

The Good Guys-whomever the sound editor was for this ad should be fired..by the director who said action KTVU News Brief-smh @ the man who shot his stepdaughter..hopefully he's still behind bars.. Life Magazine-loved Ray Charles's version of America the Beautiful UCLA v Cal-WHO'S REALLY PAPA BEAR?? The Nutcracker At Oakland-but what if the kid you grabbed doesn't want to go see it..?
