These commercials are kind of history. This is the day that Pennsylvania politician R. Budd Dwyer, shot himself in a press conference.

0:56 -- I'm sorry, lady, but you're not kidding anyone by implying you're 28 years old. Honestly, now.

That's James Kiberd in the American Airlines ad. Ironically he WOULD be cast as a hitman, on All My Children, a few years later.

@ihatestalkers Well the 80's were a pretty rough decade...

@blugreen123 Exactly. :)

@ihatestalkers

she looks to be at least 35, if not older

I miss the golden days of 20/20. I used to watch it every week w/ my mom

if you're stranded in the wilderness, don't you have more to worry about than what brand of pain reliever you have on hand, assuming you're lucky enough to have any?

Lots of home improvement things in this volume. Pledge, Glidden, Minwax etc.

"Our World" looks like an interesting show

@DancingEar08 good eye!

@Warzau1 That was actually Lela Rochon.

Was that Robin Givens in the Sheraton commercial?
