It was a song from the Kid Video cartoon, circa 1984/85.

The early 90s just has unique dreamy nostalgia about it. Not going too fast. Still some 80s. Right before the boom of technology in 96-97. Reminds of when I was just going to the library and playing board games. Would've been 7 by then. Also these sets of commercials are from in my city and hometown Miami.. Because the channel 33 and 7 are local TV. Bob Vila also went to my high school. But of course that was like in the 50s or 60s.

Peter Pan's fine, but Jiff will always be my first choice. Also, Krispy Kreme for life, fight me. Those Jordache ads are weird, but kind of charming. Never heard of True Colors, but that has "canceled after one season" written all over it. Neat, if poorly executed concept, though. Whatever happened to Bob Villa? I remember he used be on commercials all the time. Yeah, palmetto bugs are cancer. There's plenty of lizards around here, but the roaches are nearly the same goddamn size. Funny thing about Publix is that I've lived in Pensacola, Florida since I was ten in '97 and I never saw a Publix around here until around 2006. Now they're everywhere. Not gonna lie, that "Video Romeo" is the kind of 80s cheese I'm a sucker for.

I was 20 in 1990. Was just getting exposed to real TV production. The look and tone of these spots is distinctly 1989-1992, give or take. The mix of film and video, CGI being a little more present--still enough to turn your head, but not like five years before--and the schmaltziness are all of that era. So much change happening with computers that was making it into "desktop video"--at least some of these ads must have been posted on Avids.
