I'm really looking forward to Vol 1000.

Hooperman! I had forgotten about this John Ritter series.

[@YoursTrulyMrsMoores]

From my homestate! I always love finding seeing these, since they sometimes have old local ads too

[@timeman1966]

Turk 182 is actually one of those movies that is good and overlooked by a lot of people.

I REALLY liked McDonald's salads. The Chef salad was awesome and I haven't tasted anything like it since.

[@diceman74]

Thanks again ❤ Appreciate all you do!

[@Rouglas]

Neither Bruce Weitz or Darren McGavin mentioned in either TV movie special. Sacrilege!!

[@DanZero77]

What a shame the Veryfine ad got cut off! I remember that one and another one with a marathon runner with the same music! I did find both of them in their entirety here after a bit of searching.

[@CLOWNBOT00]

I've been too emotional to watch these videos. I really miss the 1980's. Sorry for my absence, if it meant anything.

[@user-vd8bu3sj2g]

Grand Gourmet "People food for dogs" isn't quite the same as today's dog food ads talking about "human grade ingredients"

[@julianneremley4430]

Love these old ads

[@SynopsisGrim]

The music from the Veryfine commercial was the TRUE inspiration for DooMs E1M1 theme 😂

[@WilfredCthulu]

I was very sad that the veryfine commercial got cut off cause I was kind of digging it but fortunately I found the full commercial albeit different saturation:

Salon Seleeectives! I still sing this one! 😂

[@yusakug]

I hope no one minds if I get personal. I apologize in advance for the length.

[@MisterMoxley]

Closing in on Volume 1,000.... this channel has been my regular go-to since I've been working from home. Appreciate all the nostalgia that is at your disposal.

Funny Farm is an underrated Chevy Chase film. It ranks alongside Christmas Vacation (which came out a year later) as one of his last truly great comedies.
