Generous George's Cheese Bread Commercial 1997

I produced this 20 year anniversary commercial for Generous George's Positive Pizza & Pasta Place in February 1997, The best part of peoducing commercials for the Generous George's Restaurant was working with their PR representative, Kelly Woodward. Kelly is warm, friendly and extremely creative, and I am happy to say that Kelly and I are still friends in 2024.

Your videos are a fascinating slice onto a very specific time period and a very specific place. Thank you for posting them

“Little did I know 20 years later there would be three Generous George’s Pizza and Pasta places!”
And now I’m guessin there’s none left because this was 27 years ago, just over the day, and time can really change things for better or worse, no matter who you are.

Ok

It looks like the original stayed open until 2009, and a second location closed some time later (there's a yelp review up until 2017). Not a bad run.

Sadly, Generous George's passed away a few months ago.
