      The voices of the actual actors were not used. There were voice actors that lent them their voice so there were two jobs in one.
      You wonder why the voice actors didn't do the commercial themselves? Because they looked like Humpty Dumpty and Uncle Fester.

    • @DeltaDanner
      @DeltaDanner 5 лет назад +166

      It has to do with the “transatlantic accent”. When radio was getting bigger it became clear that a new “standard” accent had to be created so that a southerner in America and a Londoner in England could understand each other over the radio. This accent carried on into the world of television. An accent that was (usually) self-taught. It was meant to be clear and without any accent or slang meaning as long as you spoke English you could understand it perfectly.

    One thing about the 50's and 60's I recall is that on television there were more westerns on than there are now, detective shows seemed to abound and the sitcoms all seemed to deal with Dad and his job, or Chip finding a date for the whatever, or Brenda Sue trying to decide which boy to go with to the whatever. Screw the Korean War, race issue, Russia, the bomb, or any world crisis. TV was escapism.

Fun, catchy and to the point without mega "sets" What a novel idea!Life was a bit slower then and families were more in tact.
