A Word From My Sponsors

Saturday, 29. November 2008, 17:12:03

Christmas is near. It will be here before you know.

So, it's time for my sponsors to have their say. Good suggestions if you want to buy presents for the ones you love - and who wouldn't?

I will be back after the commercials. Maybe tomorrow - who knows. Doooon't touch that dial!

These were great! Didn't know John Travolta did any motorcycle commercials.

Cool

Camera that says yes, floating cars and John Travolta, What more can you ask for

I'm glad you noticed Travolta. I saw this commercial by chance and my recognizing him set me off with this.

Old commercials tend to be wonderfully corny. Like a condensed time capsule.

Thanks, both of you.

That's Ali McGraw in the Polaroid Swinger commercial! I didn't know she was in commercials.

Thanks for the nostalgia, Allan.

I remember early television commercials from german television when I was a kid. I actually learned german before I startet in school because of those, and some of what was on between them as well.

We only had one danish television channel back then but three german.

Thanks Allan!

I clearly remember when each of these were on the teli.

Angeliki - don't give it a second thought.

Well, I never knew who Ali McGraw is. Now I've looked it up.

I don't remember any of these commercials; you see back in the days when Denmark had only one TV-channel, as Martin states, commercials weren't allowed on that one channel.

Thanks for dropping by, all.

Good one! Big White comes to rescue.

Aren't commercials unintentionally funny at all times?
