Hubbs Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 For whatever reason, I got into a discussion yesterday about very good commercials from back in the day, and which ones should make a comeback. Figured it would make for an entertaining thread.

dfitzo53 Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 The ESPN "Without Sports" series. This is my favorite: gZ_wBAQSJdM Edit: On a side note, why do embedded YouTube videos so rarely show up for me? Is there something wrong on my end? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Burgold Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 Where's the beef! I always liked those Hebrew National Hot Dog ads with Uncle Sam too. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Forehead Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 I'd bring back the next generation thing that Pepsi did when I was a kid. They had people doing some weird hand gesture and the song "California Sun" by the Rivieras playing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubbs Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 God, a lot of YouTube fail in here already. :pfft: If you want your video to display, click on the "Embed" button below the video on its YT page. Copy that code. Then paste it between (YOUTUBE) (/YOUTUBE), replacing the parentheses with brackets: [ ] People will tell you to use a certain end part of the URL, but that's actually more complicated. Most browsers will automatically highlight the embed code as soon as you click the button. All you have to do is copy and paste. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hubbs Posted June 30, 2010 Author Share Posted June 30, 2010 So dfitz, here's your video: <object width="480" height="385"><param name="movie" value="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZ_wBAQSJdM&hl=en_US&fs=1&"></param><param name="allowFullScreen" value="true"></param><param name="allowscriptaccess" value="always"></param><embed src="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gZ_wBAQSJdM&hl=en_US&fs=1&" type="application/x-shockwave-flash" allowscriptaccess="always" allowfullscreen="true" width="480" height="385"></embed></object> Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Johns Bass Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 God, a lot of YouTube fail in here already. :pfft: I do not know what browser you are using but they have all played for me the way they are. If all else fails, you should be able to post the YouTube link that has the ...watch?v... part in it separately from the video. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JMS Posted June 30, 2010 Share Posted June 30, 2010 How about that apple commercial based in Orwells 1984 book? Or my favorite Joe Jacobi sitting on the airconditioning unit. Oh.... The light beer commercials with bob Uecker, "I must be in the front rooooow." Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embedded YouTube videos on ES almost never show for me. It's weird, because they display just fine on the other forum I visit. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
