Never Enough Barbie
Oct. 13th, 2012 08:16 amThe very first Barbie commercial from 1959. The way the singer sighs "Baaaaar-bie" still gets to me.
Coming to you from KTVU, now the Fox affiliate for SF/Oakland/San Jose, but originally independent. My family still quotes this one on a regular basis.

Oct. 13th, 2012 08:11 pmNow CTV Atlantic, formerly ATV--never actually uses its callsign on air. Regional news broadcasts are still filmed in the same building as the ones in the clips (I ride by it most days on my way to class), with some of the same news anchors on-board.

Because I lived in the sticks (and still do!) and it was the only channel we got back then, in the days when satellite dishes were too expensive and cable just wasn't available here. This was when it was still a kickass Toronto station and not part of a giant media conglomerate like it is today.
