    After decades of watching tv I finally got rid of cable, bell, whatever. Now here I am on UA-cam.... watching the same old commercials over again.

    LOL at the Ford Tempo commercial. My grandparents owned a Ford Tempo, I think it was like '82. Every cold Canadian winter morning (I'm talking like -30C and even colder), my grandmother would turn the car on with the gas pedal pinned to the floor. She was convinced that this was the best way to get the car warm quickly. I recall my grandfather yelling at her from the bathroom window (on the toilet) to stop revving a cold engine.
    Got a good two years out of that car.

      😂 your grandfather yelled from the window while sitting on the toilet lol. That's hilarious! That car must be a real piece of dump for it to last only 2 years

    'Pizza Pizza' we never had in Peterborough in the late 70s and early 80s yet it was the destination of choice when we went to Toronto. The same as City-TV, only available on UHF with John Roberts (very long before Fox-News). I remember all of these early 80s commercials, always part of '20 Minute Workout', 'the Alan Thicke Show' and 'SCTV'. Nonetheless they formatted a lifestyle which existed at the time. It rocked without question.

    The Labatts Blue beer commercial brings me back. My first beer was Labatts 50 ale. Beer commercials then had a story line and a catchy jingle. Not anymore. However Dave was the one who made Toronto and his announcement on late great movies.

    I enjoyed the slices at PPizza in the 90s. Had not had it in 27 years until they opened up a PP here on the west coast a mile from my house. I picked up a couple slices after they opened a couple months ago and it was absolutely terrible lol. disgusting cardboard. meanwhile Dominos is exactly the way it was in these still, a guilty junk food pleasure.

    At 2:18, John Roberts, currently of Fox News (J.D. Roberts to Torontonians) at the news desk. We recall J.D. as a CityTV' "New Music" host. Clean cut & already dated looks, he stood out against the rock & rollers he talked to. Proof of his incongruousness came later, when he blasted Punk Rock "as the opposite of music". He was so uncool then & still to this day, as just another Fox stooge. Joe Strummer, in his punk prime,1977, looked like he was about to smack J.D. out for looking so phony in their interview

    Sure you’d save $6000 on a Tempo vs an Accord, but the Accord would have lasted twice as long.
