80's Commercials Vol. 884

These commercials aired on KPDX on December 11th, 1988

1. KPDX Smith's Family Theater Intro
2. Kenner Commercial Bumper
3. "Yogi and the Invasion of the Space Bears" Commercial Bumper (Notable for featuring the last vocal performance of Daws Butler, who voiced many Hanna-Barbera characters including Yogi Bear)
4. Croochy Stars (With free recipe card game)
5. The Real Ghostbusters Action Figures and Vehicles (I had everything in this ad. In retrospect it's a bit weird that the monster inside of a Volkswagen Beetle is a...praying mantis thing?)
6. Tom Peterson's
7. NyQuil
8. Promo for "Double Dare" and "Finders Keepers"
9. Instant Quaker Oatmeal
10. Starting Lineup (Not a bad concept for an action figure line, but these unfortunately had poor articulation and were little more than plastic statues that were permanently stuck in the same pose. They make for excellent BB gun targets though)
11. Regina Homespa
12. Cub Foods
13. Dole Pine-Orange Banana Juice (With Kenny Rogers)
14. "Yogi and the Invasion of the Space Bears" Commercial Bumper
15. Dress 'N Dazzle
16. Nintendo Entertainment System (After a string of incidents involving toy guns that were mistaken for real ones, a federal law was put in place that mandated that all toy guns only be sold in bright colors. In 1989 Nintendo changed the zapper to be a bright red-orange color, and that was the version we had)
17. Bonanza Homes
18. Tide With Bleach
19. The Real Ghostbusters Firehouse Playset
20. The Real Ghostbusters Action Figures and Vehicles (Wow, don't think I've posted this one before. I have Granny Gross still, though the eyeball sticker under her hat has long since peeled off. I also had the Ecto 2)
21. Little Boppers (This was one of my favorite commercials back then and "Keep On Dancing" by the Gentrys is still a catchy little song)
22. Haagen Chiropractic (Amazing)
23. West Bend
24. Promo for "Rock-N-Roll Christmas"
25. Fruity Pebbles
26. Perfume Pretty Barbie
27. Bonanza Homes West Angel Haven
28. Tom Peterson's
29. Sega Master System (The main kid here is Stephen Dorff)
30. Cocoa Pebbles (With free erasers)
31. Timberline Dodge (Quite a meal his hat would make!)
32. NyQuil (I've posted this before and that noise she makes at 14:03 is still terrifying. Is she part Red-Tailed Hawk?)
33. Regina Steemer Carpet Cleaner
34. Alpha Bits
35. Super Mario Bros 2 for NES (This was the number one must-have game that Christmas, but proved to be very difficult to find in stores. This is mostly to blame because of a chip shortage that year: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chip_sh...)
36. Tom Peterson's
37. Croochy Stars
38. Lego (That monorail set will set you back over 2 grand today if you want it MIB)
