There are several "Babies in Cellophane" DuPont ads from this time. When I see one, I want to rescue the baby!
Also, that stork is creepy.

Every one of the McCallum ads is delightful, but these two especially.



And one more! I couldn't resist!

Promo for The Mothers-in-Law (1967)

[pikkewyntjie.livejournal.com]

I had never heard of this program until Me TV started running the promo a few weeks ago. I had a chance to watch a few episodes over the weekend. It's certainly not the worst thing I have seen so I don't know why it's been buried all these years. It's a post-Desilu Desi Arnaz production with Bob Carroll and Madelyn Pugh as writers and a pretty good cast with Eve Arden and Kaye Ballard, but it apparently didn't have good ratings. Just shows that just because you have good ingredients, it doesn't mean the recipe will turn out.
