- These commercials aired on NBC on September 28th, 1979
1. La-Z-Boy Showcase Shoppe
2. Promo for "Pop Goes The Country"
3. "Midnight Special" Opening (Apologies for the slow text but I thought this intro was cool and worth including. The Cars were really a futuristic sounding band at the time and way ahead of the curve. It's amazing to me that "Moving In Stereo" was recorded in 1978)
4. Pizza Hut Taco Pizza (With P.J. Soles)
5. Dr. Pepper (With David Naughton)
6. Sea Breeze
7. U.S. Navy
8. Pepsi

14. "Midnight Special" Commercial Bumper
15. Promo for "CHiPS", "BJ And The Bear" and "A Man Called Sloane"

17. Railroad Bazaar (What a Bazaar name)
18. Promo for "The Dating Game"
19. Coca Cola
20. Craig Road Rated Receiver

23. Ford (With Ed McMahon)
24. E.P.T.
25. Certs
26. U.S. Army
Man, that first Navy ad rocked. Quite a contrast to their Village People anthem earlier in '79.
Back in the day, I used that stupid sea breeze and it totally dried out my skin and gave me more pimples...
Couldn’t help but notice, the one female soldier in the Army commercial was applying lipstick. 😂 I was nine when these aired, I remember the Dr. Pepper and Irish Spring commercials.
Yeah, ‘sea breeze’ was nothing but straight rubbing alcohol. Burn the hell off my acne 😒
I believe the Pizza Hut Taco Pizza ad also features Jesse D. Goins. who played one of the high school students on The Greatest American Hero in the early '80s.
2 hours for a home pregnancy test?! You may as well have gone to the doctor lol
Love that Dr. Pepper ad! With Tweety and Sylvester! Very cute jingle! Being a Pepper is where it's at! ^-^
2:06--That is a classic jingle! For you Looney Tunes fans out there, if you get Me TV, they will be showing an hour of Looney Tunes on Saturday morning starting in January. Can't wait!
#22 lol! That was some major chest fuzz!
LOL.... Women for some reason thought that hot back then with a big gold chain stuck in it. That same guy appeared in a season 1 episode of Charlie's Angels.
2:03 - Riiiight!!! LOL.
Tony Troiano - working hard at WIPING OUT!
To me that Irish Spring Box design looks cool!
11:02--I vaguely remember that packaging. I'd kind of forgotten that Irish Spring soap was marketed primarily towards men back then, but after all, I was just a kid.
The Midnight Special preview of the 1980’s with the Cars, very cool, and very true! How did they know?
La-Z Boy-must be her audition tape for The Price Is Right showcase model
Midnight Special-that song would later be immortalized as the music for when Phoebe Cates came up out the pool.. :D
Pizza Hut-ugh that Taco Pizza was terrible IMO
Sea Breeze-wouldve been funny if this were to cross over into the Navy ad(loved the music in that commercial by the way)
CHiPs-hopefully neither Ponch or Jon were in that car which flipped over
A Man Called Sloane-who wouldnt want to face "The Seduction Squad"..
The Jacksons/LTD-Arizona wasnt one of the stops on that tour,sadly :(
EPT-Nooo that's Diana..hopefully that test wasnt positive lol
The Cars are headed for the ROck and Roll Fame this weekend.
That Sea Breeze commercial screams late 70's and early 80's yacht/sailing culture that became so popular at the time (remember Christopher Cross hitting big with Sailing giving birth to yacht rock), the dreamy background travelogue music, the girl with her Cheryl Ladd look, and the guy wearing his preppy Lacoste Izod alligator polo shirt that every man and boy had to have in their wardrobe.
"Sailing" didn't give birth to Yacht Rock. It was released in 1980, towards the tail end of that genre's popularity. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Yacht_rock
I stand corrected. I just associate Christopher Cross with that genre of music along with Bertie Higgins Key Largo that was released in 1981 and hit big in 1982. That late 70's/early 80's mostly soft rock sound.
Pizza Hut, back when it was good pizza. Well I don't know about that taco pizza.
The Drewman
go to cece’s, strawhat, godfather’s etc., and try their taco pizza. Now imagine that, but tasting better. And if not, there’s a pitcher of beer to help change your mind...
1:37--I agree that Pizza Hut isn't what it used to be. If I recall correctly, I think they had pretty good taco pizza back then. I love they way they adapted the traditional "Mexican Hat Dance" in this commercial.
3:37 Pepsi and 9:31 Coke both have had a lot of great jingles over the years, and we get one of each here. Ah, the cola wars!
4:07--What ever happened to Agree shampoo? I remember that slogan about stopping "the greasies."
4:37--"Reach out and touch someone" is an iconic slogan/jingle. It was all over TV back then.
12:32--If Certs mints are still around, they've sure become hard to find in my area. They were my favorite breath mints for years, and still would be if I could find them in the stores where I shop.
My local NBC affiliate. I was six years old when these commercials aired.
Jonathan Mitchell Mine too! I was one.
Oh my God...NBC primetime in the 70s....
Man to go back in time to see that Jacksons and LTD concert!
I was four years old.
It is probable the oft-circulated WAFF sign-off from 1979 came from this broadcast.
The volume after this has the sign off: th-cam.com/video/wqv_9VlDBfA/w-d-xo.htmlm26s
I’m pretty sure that’s “Shooter McGavin” (Christopher McDonald) at the end of the Pizza Hut ad 😮
Yep!!
13:05 - jeeps, hueys, steel pots, wood stock m-14s, c-rats- sign me up
I miss taco pizza . Can't find it amongst frozen section of any of the stores in my town so I just assume no one makes it anymore .Totinos used to make it
Godfather's Pizza make a pretty good taco pizza
My Pizza Hut brought it back
2:55 Sea Breeze sounds like straight up alcohol lol. 5:28 They … they … rounded the corners? Wtf did pads look like before that? 😱😱😱
I saw Kevin Spacey in that Coke commercials.
If you're talking about the airline pilot at 9:50, Kevin Spacey was only around 20 years old when these aired.
Thanks that guy sure did look like him lol :) Again, I love your channel!!
So wait, this NBC station was on channel 48...a UHF station?
