lol, thanks for this. Every time I hear/read someone say, "where did everybody go?", I say "they've gone to Betson's". No one ever knows what I'm talking about. Now I have a link to send them to. :oD

Classic! BTW, I NEED to see Jimmy's auto parts commercial. Does anyone have it. I used to see it air at like 1:00 AM on 48,29 or 17. Loved the junkyard of singing parts!

They recently started showing the Jimmy's Auto Parts commercial again. I saw it a few days ago and it was such a nice reminder of my childhood.

DVR it and post it, PLEASE :D I don't live in the area any more and I'd love to see it again.

I have in fact 2 Betsons commercials I recorded when I used to watch Night Gallery.......in one, Betson is dancing with a belly dancer and the other he playing poker and a full house......

TY, now all I need is Jimmy's Used Auto Parts or Earl Schieb (rriiiiight!)

[snoopygirl68]

Oh wow! I used to love these commercials. Are there any more on the web?

OMG - BETSON'S! All of my life, whenever I have heard anyone say, "Where'd everybody go?" I always say, "They went to Betsons!" and unless they grew up in Philly in the 80's, nobody knows what I'm talking about.
