WPIX Commercials - May 15, 1983 (Part 2)

[@scottmcintyre4950]

Oh man this is right when I was watching WPIX almost exclusively as a kid. I remember too many of these ads vividly. Sadly I can't remember what I had for lunch...

16:16 Hostess 1983 ad. I like watching the early 80's Hostess ads , but I have never seen this ad before.

My grandmother was friends with Minnie Pearl and once gave her a ride from Mentone, Alabama to Nashville in the 1970s. They had a flat tire and had to call a tow truck from a pay phone. I'm sure the tow truck driver freaked out when he saw who needed assistance.

Thnx for the memories. It really is cultural history. 💟☮️

13:19 Is that Keisha Knight-Pulliam (Rudy Huxtable from The Cosby Show)?

[@alfonsogreen2722]

I was thinking the same thing. Yes it's her

[@jashary15]

I was engaged to my fiancee' this time of the year. We got married that November. It'll be 41 years this November 26th.

2:08 Could this woman also be the voice of the human in 9 Lives commercials? I could never find out who did them, but she sounds very similar.

[@brentmann2988]

Corinne Orr was the woman's voice on those famous 9 Lives commercials. And John Erwin was the voice of Morris.

That was 11 days, before until I was born on May 26 at that year.

[@brentmann2988]

9:24 You can't have a commercial compilation without the voice of Peter Thomas.

Holy crap: indoctrination via the 700 Club (Battle for the Family, Part 2 sounds like a Christian sci fi thriller).
