I bet Zack had to go to the Lego Maniac rehab clinic as an adult. I also remember calling that Santa 900 number. I called it once without my parents permission and it was already halfway through a story when Santa picked up. I was sad to find out it was just a recording.
I so miss the days (really not that long ago) when commercials and TV were actually shot on film. Stuff these days is so damn cheap, plastic and disposable looking. The sad part is I feel like I'm the only person in the world who realizes that film was just so much more evocative and powerful than any footage taken with a cheap modern day digital web cam.
@WastedPo - You might add title card stills to the list. There was something more evocative about the art graphics put together on 35mm slides and run through film chains/slide scanners (whether RCA TK-26/27/28 or General Electric PE-24/240/245).
Theres something strange about that santa number...666? Odd... And Santa just so happens to have the same letters as Satan? Hmm... Interesting...

The ending "Season's Greetings" on WTNH at the end of this clip sounds like Ray Marlin who was also heard pre-1981 on WOR Channel 9 in New York.

We didn't have Roy Rogers but the other commercials took me back though.
