For any fellow SoCalers out there. Adee Do. Link - ( New Window )
The ones I remember from when I lived in SoCal were Sit N Sleep - "You're killing me Larry!" and Larry H. Parker
Larry recently died I think.
I grew up in Southern California and then moved to the Bay Area for school. The SoCal local commercial game is 2nd to none. It was a shock seeing how big the difference was.
I live in the Hudson Valley in NY, it's sad. The commercials up here look like a middle schooler conceived them.
"The best part of walking up" jingle. Also, all of the incarnations of McDonalds jingles going back to the 80s "It's a good time for the great taste of MacDonalds". I still remember the commercial with Jason Alexnader pre Seinfeld. I've neve seen a guy so happy to be singing about McDonalds Mc DLT burgers.
Christmas commercials? They don't run them anymore. I liked it when they would play it in November and December during football season while watching game. Stopped playing that about 10-15 years ago.
Something along the lines of "hey kid, you didnt have your Wheaties, Strike 3, today is not your day". It goes back a ways....a lot of ways actually, like early 70's...usually had some ballplayer in the ad; seem to remember Johnny Bench being one. It worked for me...used to love Wheaties!:)

Yep, especially games done by Madden and Summerall.
Followed by 60 Minutes and Angela Landsbury in Murder she wrote except for the West Coast.
everywhere, but there is a commercial for a diabetes drug called Jardiance that has this massively fat woman dancing around and I laugh every time I see it. I doubt I forget that one any time soon.
And because I have the sense of humor of a 12-year old still the pepto commercial. "When you have nausea, heartburn, indigestion, upset stomach, diarrhea...."

RAZE to make fun of that ad on our game threads...."Oh look, a new fattie on Jardiance commercial!

Yes. I also remember it when Joe Buck and Troy Aikman were calling games. There was no reason to stop showing that commercial. Wish they would bring it back.

Yes, they have several. And suddenly we're being inundated with 'musical' commercials. It ain't Broadway.
"Now the dirt is finished but the finish is fine." Only many years later when I got into bluegrass did I realize it was a famous tune, Turkey in the Straw. Turkey in the Straw - ( New Window )

Just for the sake of understanding the comparison, who else have you ever seen singing about the McDLT burgers?
The absolute worst. I can still remember the jingle coming on at the gym on WMMR.

We've got the beer
