I wonder if Geritol contained alcohol too? When he said "It tastes good too!" It reminded me of I Love Lucy and her famouse Vitametavegamin line "It's so tasty too! Just like candy! "
I liked it when Kelly Bundy was making commercials for a drinkable diet aid, and had to say, "It tastes good too," when her face made it clear she wanted to puke.
They keep having to repeat that your tiredness can be cured by Geritol IF you have a vitamin deficiency - and that you should check with your doctor if you feel tired or listless - but eventually, even with these disclaimers, the government cracked down on Geritol implying that it gave you energy.
That's Bob Warren, who usually "pitched" Geritol [a product of Pharmaceuticals, Inc.] on "THE RED SKELTON SHOW", "TO TELL THE TRUTH", "TWENTY ONE" and finally, "THE LAWRENCE WELK SHOW" during the '50s and '60s. Eventually, their slogan became "Feel Stronger Fast!".
...do you feel tired and listless?...are you un-poopular?...do you pop out at parties?...well...the answer to all your problems is in this little bottle....
Dang! Da stuff is strong.

Tastes good, are you kidding me?? You ever taste that shit? Yeah, it tastes good in about the same way that Nyquil tastes good!

I'm sure the fact that Geritol was 12% alcohol made it popular with housewives. Hell, I would have taken a daily nip or two back then...

Is it just me, or does it seem like he's trying to keep from cracking up because he doesn't believe what he's saying?
