Classic Commercials-A Blast From The Past

by

As much as we may complain about commercials today, there are probably very few of us who don’t have a fond memory or two of a commercial from our youth. How many licks does it take to get to the center of a Tootsie Roll Pop? Remember Mr. Whipple? The jingle for the Slinky? How about for McDonalds or Burger King? If you’re as nostalgic as I am, check this out. It’s a collection of classic commercials from the 60’s. If this is before your time, don’t worry-tomorow we’ll take a look at the 70’s!

About Retro TV

Watching Retro TV is many things to many people. Part anthropology, part TWOP of shows past, and part historical perspective with a tv junkie's short attention span. Watching Retro TV is not the site for the faint at snark. We watch sitcoms, dramas, and even those terrible holiday specials that kept former stars eating through the lean times all in a effort to bring some respectibility and self-respect to those of us who were raised on the network teat. Join us...the kool-aid tastes great.
