Hilarious! I miss living in Chicago during those days. I grew up watching the original Svengoolie on Channel 32 with Jerry G Bishop. That and Creature Features on Saturday nights in the 70s. Damn good childhood memories.
Only now, YEARS after first seeing this, do I get the "Whit Bissell" reference. He's an actor who mainly did technical/professorial/advisor spots in many movies. Check out Whit Bissell on the wiki of pedia. You'll recognize him immediately.
SAS is! THIS is why the show is still on. So Chicago, so fabulous! Enjoy him while we got him folks, because he's currently auditioning for his eventual replacement. He's weaving them into the shows now.
@@YosimetySam The two I've seen so far are a little... theatrical. Nice that they're considering a woman, but not sure how I feel about the character...a little too, bubby? It would be fun to have a dark countess, but everyone has their preferences. No Sven for sure. While I know the show is broadcast nationwide, it would be nice to have another Chicagoland native, but maybe they want the next host to be more ubiquitous? It wouldn't be the same without the Berwyn references. 🎩
Wow, that was great. I have to be honest I loved the commercials of the 60's-70's much better than today. They had that kind of humor that may you watched the commercials instead of getting a snack or whatever! Also love that you could see his pens in his pocket of his shirt awe those were the days. Vampire that needs his pens to write the address down of his next Victim. I am just saying 😂
Thanks, guys for agreeing with me about the old commercials. When I feel low, I watch really old commercials before I go to sleep at night. They make me feel good like a piece of mom's chocolate cake.❤
"555-use your phonebook..."
"I hate you guys."
"...VAMPIRE!"
Gets it every time.
😂😂😂
2300-Empire!
@@big-baby-buddha Today!
@@bradleycotton3237 😆
I watched him then, and I still watch him now. SVEN RULES!
Sven is still using the sound effect of the guy going ow! ow! ow! every Saturday night.
Does anyone remember where it's from originally? Was it like a radio drama?
@@yunerzThose _drop ins_ are from various Stan Freberg sketches. They've been around since before Jerry was doing the show.
Still using Beeerwiiin and my personal favorite Hey hey pooie! 🤣🤣
Must be from one Stan Freberg sketches from Capitol Records, like "The Honey-Earthers."
@@yunerz Either Jackie Gleason himself or Stan Freberg impersonating Jackie Gleason.
"555-use your phonebook..."
"I hate you guys..."
"VAMPIIIIRE!!!!"
Honestly, just classic.
An ALL TIME Classic
Berwyn?!?! I love classic Sven bits like this!!
This was hilarious when I was 6 and im 47 now and its still makes me chuckle uncontrollably!
🤠🖖♨️
555-23...awww get back to us, we'll get it.
555-use your phone book! 🤣🤣🤣
I hate you guys!
A parody of Empire Carpets which, I believe, expanded to Empire Carpets and Flooring.
Couldn't watch WGN without that Empire carpet commercial. Had that in my head for years.
@@YosimetySam Me too.
@@williamcrowe2576 Too bad the spokesman passed away. He was kinda like an old friend
Loved seeing it on this channel years ago
555-USE-YOUR-PHONE-BOOK, VAMPIIIIIIIIIRE!
A joke that can no longer work in an era when phone books are not as common, and payphones even less so.
Kid be like :"What's a phone book?"
"I hate you guys."
Today it'd be "555-GO-ON-GOOGLE, VAMPIIIIIIIRRREEEE!"
There's a YT video joking that the sighting of a pay phone is now rarer than the sighting of a sasquatch.

RIP, Lynn Hauldren.
My dad used to install for Sears and he jokes about this commercial a lot whenever he sees an Empire ad, even now! XD

I lost it at the number 3.
NGL, this is better than when Larry did that vampire themed Empire commercial.
I love this, man. Hits me on so many levels

Oh wow is this still the same guy I watch Saturday nights?

I swear I can watch old commercials for hours, but even 10 seconds of a modern commercial literally makes me angry.
@@mayssmthey weren't pushing agendas then,just trying to sell things.miss those days.

Berwyn !?
Love the spoof! Keep them coming! 😊
That's in response to the Empire Carpet Commercial with Lynn Hauldren working on it.
Can you give us Yu's on First? I got audio of most of the first couple years. I can get you a date on the clip in exchange.
I wish I had that sketch
Empire
Always a Laugh
😂😂 That's great!
BAHAHAHA...🤣💞 Everytime. 🥴
Its 555-3200, Vampire!
On a scale from 1 to 10. I give it a 3. LOL! JK!
