42

These commercials aired during the 1984 Olympics on ABC on August 12th, 1984. These are from a 24 year old beta tape that my Aunt and Uncle recorded, so the quality isn't the best.

1. McDonald's (An EPIC one minute ad, featuring that great 80's jingle)
2. Dean Witter (With Paul Gleason)
3. General Motors (Their feeble robots couldn't hold up to the brutal efficiency of the Japanese variety)
4. Gatorade (I love the pixelated bodies)
5. Symphony Software by Lotus (A word processing suite for DOS)
6. ARCO (Before the Exxon Valdez, obviously)
7. GMC Vans and Trucks
8. Xerox (With Edward Herrmann)
9. Levi's 501 Jeans
10. Ortega Taco Shells (With Cornthenticity! I love how he says "Ortega"!)
11. Sears (They mixed up CD's and Laserdiscs, LOL)
12. Promo for "Call To Glory" (With Craig T. Nelson)
13. Mervyns (I wish I had an older brother like that kid to show me the moves)
14. Western Appliance (Electronics have always been expensive)
15. Aetna Insurance
16. M&M's (Look how huge that bag is!)
17. Converse
18. Promo for "Family Feud Celebrity Special", "Loving" and "Family Feud"
19. ABC News Promo (Uniquely qualified to bring you the world)
