Hmmmm, Nichols and May always seem to hold my attention without making me laugh?!? That's not either a good or a bad thing, maybe it's a strange thing?? Anyhow, enjoy the commercial...
Maybe they hold your attention because they are like many of us in the real world when we might be running on all cylinders during a conversation, but they just keep right on going. I think Elaine is the funniest dry humored woman on the planet, and I do laugh at her comments. A month ago I didn't even know they existed. I found a record of theirs- 'Improvisation with Music'. I thought it was going to be dull, but it was anything but dull. I guess if you don't like Seinfeld you wouldn't like it
I suspect that, as per their custom, MIke and Elaine were given the basic idea for this animated commercial, then improvised their dialogue. They almost never worked from a prepared script...
The 1st time I drank beer was a few large gulps from my daddy's when I was about 4 years old. He thought it was shocking; I enjoyed it, but didn't get drunk.

It's quite possible the same ad agency that represented Jax and Naragansett beer used Mike & Elaine for both breweries' ad campaigns, 'sygo'.

Thanks for posting this. This is the kind of thing that makes me love YouTube, and the people who post on it. I still remember these commercials.

Do you remember the Jax beer commercial with Searchlight, the dog? And the one with the woman who shaved her head? Those were classics too!

Thank you so much for this. My dad drank Jax beer. This has a lot of memories for me. Thanks again.
