[@halon7476]

Love to go back to that time and get out of 2021.

Wow, amazing to see that London Life commercial again. The woman featured in it, Christine Marshall, was the wife of my Grade 5 teacher (he is briefly in the spot too, walking with the family)

6:45 - Nice to see that the late great Christopher Plummer, appreciated a good cup of tea. RIP sir.

[@kaybeluv]

My God the memories😭😭! Fun fun fun fun…

[@robertc5200]

Martin Short for Blacks photography. Forgot about those.

[@homewrecker44]

To this day I've never forgotten that AC Delco Jingle.

Leon's Don't pay a cent event! Now you pay up front and might have to wait weeks or months until the products are in stock.

[@retroDave80]

Awesome collection. Thanks for posting!

[@ClintScottFischer]

Burgess Meredith doing the voice over on the Honda Civic.

[@vincevega0]

I would often imitate the Otrivin commercial voice as a kid.

[@retronewfoundland]

If you blink at the wrong moment, you'll miss a couple of frames of the end of a Get Smart intro, which they apparently aired reruns of in the '80s. And as of late 2021, they're airing them again.

[@rburley204]

The split second opening of Hawaii Five-O also appears at the 7:57 mark, which CHCH has also has been airing for the past year. What a time capsule!

[@doccyclopz]

It's funny that the Carlsberg commercial features 'Stubby bottles' which were phased out in 1983 for the 'long necks' if I'm not mistaken.

Thank you for this info. I thought I recognized that face and voice in the Zero ad, Fay Dance of course!

2:46. Blacks Cameras - Martin Short

[@johnziegelbauer4999]

Alex Amini Capistro wine

[@oscargoya]

@@johnziegelbauer4999 I loved her as a small boy. Haven't read that name in ages. Thanks.

[@erikk1820]

@@johnziegelbauer4999Thank you! I remembered the face so well but not the name. A teenage crush of mine.

[@tammydeetz7927]

So much nostalgia

[@maliwan516]

and to this day the body shop is still in limeridge mall.

[@williamf.buckleyjr3227]

3:10 A very young Martin Short??

[@d46512]

The ad for safety was your 5 year old riding shotgun in a thinderstorm with a lap belt.

[@OofusTwillip]

I noticed that too.

[@inversion66]

Probably no airbag in that model.

[@inversion66]

Interesting to see an ad for Toffifee with the alternate spelling, which persists in the US. I wonder when the changeover happened in Canada.

[@steveferguson6809]

Does anyone remember the CHCH weather guy who would draw the weather on glass while standing behind it and using both hands at the same time ? I believe it was during the 70's.

[@vincevega0]

It was Dave Devall for CTV. Not CHCH. He’d often drew umbrella on glass and would pretend to hold it.

[@steveferguson6809]

@@vincevega0 thanks I see it was CFTO

[@christosyal5883]

Looks like they did the Nissan Micra commercial on Forks of the Credit Rd

[@rwcrsarrc]

They did, I remember "FUN" painted on forks of the credit rd and on the old house on the bend before going under the tressel

[@vincevega0]

I never understood why when he sits beside her, he becomes so short in his chair 14:20 Yet when they eat watermelon in photo, they’re the same height.

[@ふなびきまなぶ]

かっこいい

[@rickparks1462]

I don't remember any of these.
