@UrkManRocks The lineup I'll remember the most from my childhood! I was in kindergarten, and usually I would change the channel after Ninja Turtles was over, go outside, or play my NES.
It really is weird how they would show a promo for a primetime show during the Saturday morning cartoon block - especially Rescue 911. Not to mention that showing a Rescue 911 promo on Saturday mornings would not be child-friendly and too creepy for kids to see.
if they were going to show a promo for a more older generation program during that block, they should have aired a promo for The Price is Right or Ray Combs' Family Feud, to say the least. At least they were family-friendly promos.
I remember the Fido Dido bumpers from back in the day. He was the short-lived mascot for 7-Up, and he was pretty cool. It surprises me that the 7-Up mascot was seen in the CBS Saturday morning bumpers, yet CBS didn't show any 7-Up commercials back then. And this was during a point in 1991 before Pee-Wee Herman ended up getting in arrested for a sexual crime and was labeled a perv as a result. It wouldn't be long before Pee-Wee's Playhouse was axed by CBS for good.
7 Up' s owner in USA it's different from the world (in USA is Dr. Pepper Snapple Group, globally is Pepsico, for that reason Pepsi uses a replacement like Sierra Mist)
Pepsico paid license to use Fido Dido as mascot for their 7 Up zone (in USA they modified the brand for Slice in the ads) and CBS paid license to use him for bumpers
Fido Dido still acts as the mascot of 7 Up outside USA.
How is it that a kid can become Toucan Sam and therefore be entitled to all the Froot Loops he wants, and yet the Trix Rabbit can't even get a bite of his signature cereal just because he's not a kid? Shenanigans!
Am I the only one who is totally freaked out that these commercials originally aired in 1991? And BTW....for those who have not realized it yet......1991 was.......TWENTY YEARS AGO?????????????????? 20 f*&king years!!!!! I feel ancient!!!!!
I remember this always had to have flinstone push up. I remember the mini chips ahoy! Remember the crayola markers and crayons they were the only ones I would use lol.
I have to say, this commercial block is pretty awesome, even though at the time i was a bit too young to comprehend to these ads. But still, great job!
