Commercials - WLVI 56 Boston - 1984 (VHS)

[@AdamJ617]

That Sunday Movie bumper was awesome, and reminds me of my childhood growing up in Boston.

These aired on Sunday, September 9, 1984.

Had me singing the Duncan Hines cookie jingle word for word. My mother used to buy them (at Star Market) - they were as advertised and good too.

A great Station. They added this station to our cable service along with WSBK TV-38 in the early 1980s. Before that I could watch it at night on the UHF dial but I could never get it during the day

Some of the bumpers still have the old Field-era 56, while others have the new one.

The frosted mini-wheats commercials I remember like it was yesterday. Thank you

Great video! Thanks for sharing!

Surprised I don't remember those Diet Pepsi commercials, seems like it must've been a good campaign. Peter Thomas from the Shake and Bake spots was the voice of my youth (also did Forensic Files, " ...and viewers like you...Thank You from Nova", was sampled for Paul Hardcastle's "19", and so much more). For my money, the best there ever was.

When I started watching Forensic Files in the early 00s I was like, "hey I feel like I'd heard that voice before" but couldn't pinpoint it. Of course Nova made it familiar but he did a lot of commercial ad work in the 80s and only realized that a few years into watching FF.

Great collection of classic commercials! Thanks for sharing!

This VCR's playhead desperately needed a cleaning.
