I ~~had~~ have such a crush on Scott Bakula! This is cheesy as hell, but fun! I had forgotten about this ad until I saw a reference to it in a Star Trek-related post on Twitter. Apparently, they played this ad on the set of Enterprise as a prank. Not sure the year, but certainly before Quantum Leap. Mid-80s? [ETA: According to Dominic Keating in The Captains Close-Up, this was made in the late 70s.]

I noticed another Canada Dry ad was just posted and maybe that's fitting since their men's hockey team won today. Congrats, Canada!

Apparently gender mattered when it came to pens as also noted in this ad.
