Yup! One of the few times we actually see him in a commercial too. I was told the same thing on another 80sCommercialVault break just a few days ago! BTW like your Summer Commercials playlist
I LOVED "Perfect Strangers." Not many people realize, or remember that "Family Matters" was a spin-off of "Perfect Strangers." Is it just me, or do Orville Redenbacher & Colonel Sanders look exactly alike? those sandwiches in the mustard ad look like they belong in Little Shop of Horrors.
@NewYorkRetroKing Yep! He also was the voice for Cadbury Creme Eggs commercials. He did the "Nobody knows Easter Better than him!" referring to the Easter Bunny.
Don't see her mentioned yet, but that's Susan Sullivan in the Tylenol ad (2:52), right near the end of her run on "Falcon Crest", currently starring in "Castle" as Martha (Castle's mother). Still a fine looking woman. And I call foul on Avon. 7:08 "In seconds flat..", as if, that's at least 40 minutes, sheesh.
The Weight Watchers fudge bars are soooooo good!! They are big honkin slabs of fudgey ice cream on a stick....bigger than the ones in the commercial...i forget the name of the program then... Think it was exchanges like if you have this...you can't have that...
With a name like Nuprin it has to be good (TM) PETER TOMARKEN on the Raid Fumigator ad! Of "Press Your Luck" and "Wipeout '87" fame (RIP) RIP One Life To Live too
By any chance, is the Weight Watchers girl Michelle Meyrink, from "Valley Girl" and "Real Genius"? I've never seen her as a blonde, but the actress here seems to resemble her. The character she's doing here is also very reminiscent of her hyperactive persona as Jordan in "Real Genius".
The Heaven Sundaes commercial makes me depressed. :< Heh, you know also when I read "Milk-Bone" on the list there I expected it to be like an ice cream popsicle like, say, Mini Milks but then it turned out to be dog biscuits. xD Well hey, to help you feel better, my Mum told me she used to eat dog biscuits one time when she was small. So...don't panic. ;)
Love the Pokémon nod in your description of Nuprin. If only Pokémon came out in the 80s...well, the world couldn’t handle it.
The guy in the Raid Fumigator commercial was the host of Press Your Luck.
I loved "Roxanne". Another great upload

btw that was Mason Adams of "Lou Grant" fame in the Nuprin ad
Same kid is in the Johnson & Johnson Pad and the Oscar Meyer ad..I do not know why that strike me as odd *shrug*

7:57 Applauding fake paws! Milk-Bone dog biscuits made by the *same* company that makes Oreos! :-D

Wes Sarginson went on to become newsman at WXIA in Atlanta.

sure was an aspirin war going on in that break
@StormsongK
That's not her...but I guess I see where you are coming from. I loved her performance in those movies

6:50 - unnecessarily long pause on man with awkward facial expression.
Nothing's worse than diaper commercials and that's still true 25 years later.
@DanZero77 At the time, Peter Tomarken was hosting a TPIR rip-off called Bargain Hunters which he would later call a Piece of Crap.
Elisabeth Shue.....MMMMMMMMMM!
