Commercials from KETV Omaha, NE June 1989. From the evening news and a Night Court episode.

I love how the commercials are so literal. Here's our stuff. Buy it. We won't entertain you unless it's completely six year old humor. I'd forgotten just how much ads back then stuck to the point.

I know right, it was definitely an overcorrection to the fantastical advertising of the previous decades. Folks got really cynical, and marketers decided to use that cynicism by labelling themselves the "No BS" option amongst many. Then everybody was doing that, every teenager was a "rebel" for drinking Soft Drink B, and were defining a generation by being as unoriginally original as everyone else. Nowadays, modern commercials are kind of absurdist CGI-fests. More fantasy than ever before; selling a 'feeling' than an actual product as Ford trucks are driving on top of mountains, discarded animatronics find a new home in the land of VR, upper middle-class women are finally able to get their whole families to love each other by booking an impromptu vacation at a multimillion-dollar estate for everybody, etc. etc.

3:14 - Jim Flowers. Anyone who lived in Omaha in the 80s, 90s, 2000s and 2010s remembers him. He was at KETV until 1992 when he went to WOWT. He was there until 2012 when he was dropped suddenly. Then in 2013, he went to KMTV. Then in 2016, he retired.

From 1964 to 1990 I lived in New Jersey. 1990 to present I am living in California. The Midwest looks like fun.
