I couldn't stand the Cal Worthington commercials, but I'll remember them fondly because a sweet, elderly neighbor with dementia misunderstood the repeated phrase at the end of the song, and would loudly sing along with some rather improper words that were VERY funny to a kid.

In addition to our friends in the diamond business, we also had Jack Roberts Appliance who was less offensive than the others.

For some reason I never minded Jack Roberts. I can't explain it.

But I dearly loved the old Ivar's commercials. That man knew how to advertise. I'd always go out of my way to eat at Ivar's just because. He was always "fresh" :-)

Rainier Beer also knew how to do ads right. I always picked Rainier because of their amusing commercials.
