Re: Nostalgia Corner
Can't forget about the Ernest P. Worrell character and related movies and specials, corny but usually funny.

The actor passed in 2000, so no more Ernest.
The character was also in a lot of commercials in the time..
Milk
Cars

Re: Nostalgia Corner
These were So. California local commercials in the 80's and early 90's, all the corny local commercials from back then.
1986
1988
1981
Here is Cal Worthington and his dog spot, go see Cal go see Cal... The commercials worked, I still remember them.... No idea if they are still around.
Passed away in 2013 at 92, seems he was doing ads til the end.

Re: Nostalgia Corner
Local again to California mostly, PSA aka Pacific Southwest Airlines, the original low fare airline, and based on my home town of San Diego, in 1988 they were sold to US Air who slowly pulled out of the west coast, which allowed new arrival Southwest Airlines based in Texas to take over the western US air market.
This is the airline I worked for who merged with US Airways who then merged with American Airlines, the CEO of America West is still CEO of the new AA.
The folks in the commercials were actual employees and not paid actors.

Re: Nostalgia Corner
Come on people, nostalgia's not only about old TV.
Where are the toys, games, comics and other things?
