Nickelodeon Commercial & Seed of Chucky.

So if you've been watching Nickelodeon, you might've noticed a commercial promoting SpongeBob watches at Burger King -- that's one of the spots I've written. Fun stuff, but they didn't let me keep any of the watches. I'll try to get that and some of the others I've done encoded and online, as soon as I determine if this is the type of behavior that'll get me fired.

Seed of Chucky opens this weekend. I'm definitely considering lending it the opening night treatment. Child's Play 2 still keeps its special place within my stained black soul, and though it took me a lot of time to get around to seeing Bride of Chucky, I was enormously surprised at how well they "hipped up" the star player without ever once annoying me. Can't say I'm too enthusiastic about what I've seen in the trailers, but then, they can't really show the dolls boinking or slicing throats in a mass consumed ad, and that's what I'm really hoping to see. Chucky must A) have sex, B) kill someone, and if they dog it even halfway on either of those scenes, I'm demanding a constituency C) Chucky music video sidebar out of nowhere. Please, God?

Request: Still looking for some more old Christmas/holiday commercials! (80s & 90s) I didn't think I'd have enough fresh (as in, not seen on the site previously) files to put a new one up for every entry on the 2004 Advent Calendar as I did last year, but we're getting real close. If you have any old VHS tapes that happen to contain such wondrous Santafun ads, shoot me an e-mail. Same goes for any other Christmas junk you think I might be able to use.

Trajeal… I got the Sears Wishbook this year… All you have to do is go on-line at http://www.sears.ca and request one to be sent to your house. If you order from them they will send you all the catalogues automatically, including (drool) the Wishbook.

Matt, I have a whole bunch of Beta tapes from late 80′s, mostly original broadcats of Star Trek The Next Generation. There has to be some cool ads in there, but I’m not sure I can copy them to VHS. I will email you about TMNT.

Argh, Mr. Mr. Mr. is the Pop Arena guy and he didn’t even look. I’m gonna have to shoot him an Email instead…

Hey Matt I have something you would probably want. It’s the really belated sequel to the infamous Charlie Brown Christmas special called It’s Christmastime Charlie Brown. This came out in 1992 and was distributed at Shell gas stations in the Cleveland area for a special price when you bought a certain amount of gas or something. To be honest I don’t remember ever watching this so the tape is in mint condition. Interested?

Sucrose–your major is animation?? That’s awesome, because it’s a field I’m interested in entering. I haven’t seen the Incredibles yet, but I’ve been waiting all year for its release. It’s the number one movie on my list to see.

I saw that ad! I’m still pissed at BK for not doing a Simpsons Halloween promotion this year…grrrrr.

Pinwheel! Man, I hated that show when I was a kid. I was more interested in the Great Space Coaster.
Gary Gnu rocked… the rest of the show was kinda gay, in hindsite.
Hmmm. And thank you EMajotwitz, and happy Veterans Day to you, Zombone and everyone else.

I have that special too–the "new" Charlie Brown one. They only aired it once and never again. Of all the specials made from stitched-together strips, it was one of the better ones.

Spin me good morning, spin me good night! Sorry, someone had to finish the song or one of would be struck down by insanity for sure.

Somewhere in my room, I have THE elite X-Entertainment tape EVER:

The "36th" Annual WWF Slammy Awards…loaded with irreverent inanities of awards and Hacksaw Jim Duggan wearing a printed tux shirt, it was luckily taped around Christmastime. I don’t remember what Christmas commercials there are, but I do remember:

-TV spot for "Eddie Murphy Raw"
-Burger King Christmas ad
-Christmas caroling promos
-Other inanities. There’s an X-E worthy part from the special too where Hacksaw and I forget who else started throwing each other around a catering hall. Too funny to describe.

By the way, in addition, I’m writing a feature article about you in journalism class. I’d love to see if I could get a nice quote from you.

AHEM…

"Pinwheel, pinwheel
spinning around
Look at my pinwheel and
see what I’ve found."

"Pinwheel, pinwheel
shiny and bright
Spin me good morning and
spin me goodnight."

Sorry, I just really miss the old Nick shows: Pinwheel, You Can’t Do That on Television, Today’s Special, Welcome Freshman, Fifteen, even Bill Cosby’s Picture Pages. Sigh…

Don’t forget Mr. Wizard, Jillybeann.

Anybody have or know where I can get a copy of Emmett Otter’s Jug Band Christmas. The last time I saw it was 97 and it is definately my favorite Christmas special ever.

Chestnuts roasted by Shonuf1 @ 11/14/2004 1:33 AM

That’s right! Don Herbert IS Mr. Wizard. I always wanted to be on that show. :)

I think the end all of Christmas Commercials, sans the Fruity Pebbles Christmas, is the Honey Nut Cheerios one. Boy did that bee put Scrooge in his place! If only Dickens had given old Ebenezer a bowl of Honey Nut Cheerios, he wouldn’t have been such a mean prick to everybody ever. P.S. If anybody has this commercial, please make sure that it gets posted on here, post haste. Thank you.

i really hope yours is the one where the guy’s all like "what time is it?!" because that made me laugh. burger king needs to keep up the good work in the ad department.

Chestnuts roasted by Ehrik @ 11/15/2004 4:17 PM

I love the old old OLD pinball Nick logo! I like it more than the latest one…

Anyways, I’ve noticed that the movie is underway to premeire friday. But when you see a big ass Spongbob sitting atop your local Burger King "waving" (he was just a big figurine), then the Spongebob trend has gone out of control! I almost drove my car off the road seeing that thing winking and everything.

pulseczar, Marc Summers works for the Food Network now! He hosts Unwrapped, where they tell you how certain "foods" (mostly junk snack food) get made.

The Charlie Brown T-giving review opens up in that tiny frame.

Hey, I just witnessed your commercial. It’s money.

I’ve seen a million Spongebob watch commercials. Which one is it?

Chestnuts roasted by RewolfJ @ 11/22/2004 10:28 PM

I loved The Great Space Coaster! Especially Francine, the very pretty 16 year old brunette singer/guitar player on the show who once made Puppet Goriddle Gorilla into a fake scarecrow as a practical joke in Edison Elephant’s corn garden! The role of 16 year old Francine was played Singer/Actress Emily Bindiger.
