90's Commercials Vol. 475

These commercials aired on USA on December 9th, 1990

1. Dancing Pretty Ballerina
2. Petite Nate
3. Alpha Bits
4. Magic Nursery Baby
5. Promo for "All American Wrestling"
6. Promo for "MacGyver" (Wha...wha...what's he doing with that thing?)
7. Cocoa Puffs
8. Batman Action Figures (The dioramas they constructed for commercials like this back then were incredible and really helped sell the toys. Like the shot at 3:38...I can tell there were common tricks used for miniature photography like forced perspective and fog, but it still looks absolutely enormous. This was the kind of city environment I always dreamed of owning to display all of my TMNT and Ghostbusters action figures back then)
9. Bill Williams Tire Center
10. First Care Minor Emergency Center (I'd love to see an E/R type drama detailing the lives of these people who treat minor burns and cuts and send anybody with serious injuries to the hospital down the road)
11. "Scooby-Doo" Title Card (I left this in just to show they were showing something Christmassy. The "Nutcracker Scoob" from 1985 was about as close to Scooby-Doo got to having a Christmas special back in the day)
12. Play Doh Make A Meal Diner (For some reason making fake food out of dough was a really popular idea back then, Tyco had a similar snack shop dough set that I owned)
13. USA Network Kids Club
14. Sprinkled Chips Ahoy! (With Ben Stein)
15. Hot Wheels Power Command Racers (The boy at 7:05 is Matthew Lawrence)
16. Promo for "A Smoky Mountain Christmas"
17. Promo for "Prime Time Wrestling"
18. Lady Stetson
19. Michael Jackson's Moonwalker for Sega Genesis (   • Sega Genesis/Mega Drive: Michael Jack...  )
20. Exclamation (With Famke Janssen)
21. Sam Goody (I can't say that I ever bought much there but I always enjoyed browsing through the one at the mall as a kid)
22. Promo for "Silhouette" (It's a bit odd that Faye Dunaway was slumming for a USA original movie, though she was also in "Supergirl" so...)
23. Promo for "Dog-House" (9:31 might be the least convincing kitchen set that I've ever seen)
24. Promo for "Just The Ten Of Us"
25. Milk
26. Iron Cologne
27. Halls
28. Home Shopping Club (11:35 "Guess who's laughing now" she said, thinking of how she would get even with her friends at the PTA for mocking her)
29. MOHRE PSA (Stands for Midland/Odessa Health and Retirement Endeavor, though I'm sure that most people know that)
30. TV Spot for "Kindergarten Cop" (IT'S NOT A TUMAH!)
31. DeVry
32. Preferred Stock by Stetson
33. Tetris for NES
34. Stetson
35. Wendy's Dave's Deluxe (With Dave Thomas)
36. Bar B Q Baron (Nothing gets more Texas than an ad for a local BBQ joint)
37. Planters Nuts (With the voice of Don Pardo)
38. Hooked On Phonics
