Topo Gigio

Ladies and gentlemen, my friend Topo Gigio! This cute little mouse on the Ed Sullivan show in the 60s.

Color-changing Clothes!

Only in the 80s.



My school book covers change color like these shirts.

Pudding Roll-ups?!

Oh, this is brilliant. With all the 80s commercials I watch, I can't believe I never heard about this before. Fruit Roll-ups but pudding? What? What is there to say about that?



Circa 1987. One of those moments when I wish I was born 10 years earlier. 5-year-olds can eat chewable pudding, right?

And of course there's the long-lived joke about how the word pudding makes me laugh.

Where's the Beef?

Iconically 80s. I'll let the video talk for itself.

Resurrecting Oreo Big Stuf

I have to write about Oreo Big Stuf again. My original video from an early 2007 post regarding them is no longer available, so i had to replace it with a similar but not quite the same Oreo Big Stuf commercial. *Sigh.* In happier news, which I was searching for a replacement commercial, I stumbled across another Oreo Big Stuf commercial that I also really like. Silver lining, silver lining.

That kid at 0:04 looks like J.T. from Step By Step.



I <3 Oreos.

Dunkaroos!

I have vague memories these. I remember the name, I remember what they tasted like, and I remember this commercial, but I don't remember any specific instances of actually eating them. Seriously, though. Cookies you dip in frosting?? I want some!!

99 Luftballons

"99 Luftballons" by Nena, circa 1983, in German. Cool song. =]
