80′s Commercials Vol. 19

These commercials aired on local ABC affiliate KNTV 11 on the afternoon of September 29th, 1987. These are the sort of daytime TV, infomercially ads that usually make me want to slit my wrists, but they’re from the 80′s, so I automatically love all of them. 1. Burger King (With Christine Taylor from “Hey Dude”) 2. The Spirit Of San Jose 3. PG&E (Not a big ad budget, eh PG&E?) 4. Dental Implants (“I feel prettier and that’s worth everything”) 5. Billings Chevrolet (What an intense car salesman!) 6. Mrs. Smith’s Natural Juice Pies (Bursting with fruit) 7. Tilex (With Vincent Price!) 8. 409 9. News Break (Henry Ford II dead at age 70) 10. Bay Valley Tech 11. KNTV Station ID 12. Regina Housekeeper Vacuum Cleaner 13. Comet 14. Poole’s Jewelry (All of this jewelry probably turned green) 15. Wendy’s (Kind of an unconventional commercial spokesman) 16. Time Life Treasury of Christmas (The commercial format for this really hasn’t changed much in 20 years) 17. Promo for “The New Newlywed Game”

    I love the bay-valley tech commercials, our local tech school commercials are pretty much the same just with updated hair

    @laichi16 Movies on laserdisc generally were not advertised on TV…not even in the 90′s.

    99 cents: $1.90 in today’s money. And anyone who was involved with the underrated Edsel deserves as much respect as possible.

    Burger King’s two burgers for a buck. I think that’s the equivalent to the Double cheeseburger which cost a $1 a while back.

    Oh my God, the “14 Karat Gold” just brought me back to 1987. I didn’t have any recollection of this infomercial until I heard it just now. Frightening.
