A nice selection of 1984 insanity, recorded off CHCH 11 in February of 1984.
Retrontario’s primary mission is the preservation, research and exhibition of rare videotape recordings (1970s to 1990s) recorded off of any and all Ontario (and surrounding area) TV channels; footage which would likely be lost if not sought out and preserved digitally. We also hope to create an ongoing oral history of this content through comments left below the videos. Please add to this evolving history, if you know more information pertaining to the clips, fondly remember them or have a modern thought all comments are welcome! For more information on how to help in our mission please visit us at: www.retrontario...

Elizabeth Shue, I loved her back in the day.

@McCaler 7 месяцев назад

So that burger king commercial she was in,....is that like an international type of commercial? Was that filmed in Canada or the U.S.? I know she's an American.

@janetprost1487 4 месяца назад

OMG memories of my childhood growing up in Canada. I've been in the States now for 25 years but still feel nostalgic for those days.

19:36 - Lottario - One of a series of commercials featuring Miss Penelope (Carol Robinson), Mr. Hall (Les Rubie), and Niece Vicki (Mag Ruffman).

Mag Ruffman is Aunt Olivia from Road To Avonlea

13:05 - Contac C - with Don Lake (the bald man) and Ben Gordon (the man in the hat). Both are Second City Toronto alumni.

16:36 - Lipton Tea - Teabag voiced by John Stocker. 18:06 - He also did the Superfries voiceover.

@inversion66 7 месяцев назад

Stocker's list of voice credits must be in the 10 thousand range or more. TV commercials, cartoons, and I wouldn't be surprised if he did corporate videos.

I had a “who iiisss that?” moment. And then, oh yeah. That show I watched a lot.

@jcmartin961 7 месяцев назад

All kinds of supporting characters from SCTV and Wayne & Schuster show up. It doesn’t diminish the parody adverts they did on the shows, but I wonder if they had to sign waivers that they wouldn’t parody the products in the future.

@jcmartin961 7 месяцев назад

Also, the Ruffles taste-test ad has the most deceptive and hilarious caveat: “Almost two out of three people agreed. Ruffles is the best!” So kind of 50%?

@biffwellington1782 7 месяцев назад

Yeah. Nothing has changed. Same ol' deceptiveness in marketing today with less satisfaction. Cheers.@@jcmartin961

@biffwellington1782 7 месяцев назад

Yeah, I've seen Martin Short in a few. Michael J Fox as well.@@jcmartin961

5:53 - Wendy's - Voiceover by Don Francks (Cree Summer's dad). 19:05 - VIA Rail - Also voiced by him.

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

17:05 - Canon Copiers - Jayne Eastwood as the secretary.

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

11:05 - Coffee Crisp - Voiceover by Chris Wiggins. I wonder how they got that fountain pen to write legibly on the glossy paper (it was paper, back then) wrapper. Fountain pen ink is water-based, and will bead on non-porous surfaces.

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

13:40 - Wally Michaels as J.M. Schneider. He played the role in many Schneider's commercials.

Is life in the current clown world getting you down?? Just hop in this time machine to when life was great.

20:06 - Crest - A British commercial, re-voiced by Paul Sullivan (of "Hammy Hamster").

@inversion66 7 месяцев назад

Ed Marinaro in the Prego ad.. At the time he was one of the cast of Hill Street Blues as police officer Joe Coffey.

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

7:23 - Taster's Choice - Voiceover by Henry Ramer.

@nathanng 7 месяцев назад

i don't know if i really understand the Anacin commercial... Like, what was under the other 3 boxes?

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

Non-extra-strength painkillers. For me, the bigger question was, why didn't the guy notice what was on the boxes until they were turned AWAY from him? This logical flaw was in many Anacin commercials.

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

14:06 - Provinvial Lottery - Voiceover by Harvey Atkin.

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

21:35 - Secret - with Kathy Lasky.

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

17:36 - Ross Petty for Colgate toothpaste.

Do You Have The NBC Made For TV Movie: Asteroid, That Originally Aired In Canada In 1997!?!!!!!!!!

@OofusTwillip 7 месяцев назад

7:53 - Facettes - This commercial is so dumb, that it was widely mocked at the time. 1) In the real world, everyone calls facial tissues "kleenex". 2) If the guy's so cheap, he should just tell the kid to use toilet paper to blow his nose.
