This is a channel I set up years ago for commercials I used in posts on my blog. I kind of let it go for about a decade, but have been building up a collection of commercials in my media center that I thought I would start sharing here.
Commercials can trigger a lot of memories. I hope that I can help you find ones that you have been seeking.
I am also including promos, bumpers, and the occasional intro of a show that might not have been too popular.
Earlier commercials have watermarks on them, which I now regret. New ones will not.

Yet I eat bacon and eggs with my oatmeal every morning. Eggs have more HDL cholesterol than LDL cholesterol so it won’t clog your arteries. Plus the fat and protein in bacon and eggs will slow down the rise in blood sugar from carbohydrates. You know, the stuff in oatmeal?
Sure did, aired on Fox29 WUTV Buffalo here in Canada weekday afternoons @ five until it moved to weekday mornings @ six!!!! CFTO/CTV aired it weekday afternoons @ four-thirty! Global Television (simulcast with the Columbia Broadcasting System) aka CBS aired it Saturday mornings @ ten & ten-thirty. Later I would watch solely the CBS feed & ten-thirty a.m. In addition to watching the final “Red Sky” seasons on CBS @ eleven-thirty on Saturday mornings. YTV also broadcast the series for the first two seasons, which was very highly rated for the network in its timeslot @ nine-thirty weekend mornings. However, due to complaints from parents & teachers, the show was pulled off the schedule. My apologies for rambling on this issue for too long but I’m from Toronto, Canada & grew up with this particular iteration !!! Cowabunga!!!
The Uncle Rule, which Beefsteak Charlie spells out here, wasn't always clarified for customers. I rarely heard the word spoken during my trips to the restaurant. This uncertainty, as well as the lack of translators, probably led to the waste of food. Moreover, who wants to eat seconds if it forces the owner to reduce his relatives' salary?
Somebody referred to Adam Lally who is the prosecutor in the Karen Read trial as the lawyer equivalent to the "Time to make the donuts" guy. I lost my mind, it was so on the nose!
During the covid-19 pandemic all I did was bawl my eyes out when I watch this commercial because I could not see my mom. I was homesick. It was Christmas in my mom lives 150 mi away from where I live. My grandfather took care of me and got me to come down late at night one night and he told me it was okay I will never forget all those nights when I woke him up in the middle of the night crying
