Well, I obviously can't really contribute to this......... your commercials will be completely different to ours in the UK. I did live in Canada as a child though, so I remember programmes like Gilligan's Island, Gentle Ben, Martin & Rowan's Laugh-In, I Love Lucy, Get Smart, The Odd Couple and a few others......... Seem to remember a programme with Ken Berry but can't remember the name of it............. anyone? Sorry, Len, honeybun...!! (still love Columbo!!).
The "Grant Hill drinks Sprite" commercials. My buds and I still call it getting Sprited when a guy gets rejected by the front of the rim on a dunk. Good times
I loved the old Shasta Soda commercials. There was one I remember watching as a kid where the backdrop was Dr. Frankenstein's castle. The mad scientist supposedly Dr. Frankenstein would tell the Frankenstein monster, "Igor.... Get me what I crave."
Then the monster would slowly lumber his way out of the castle and then to a local supermarket where you would see him going into the soda aisle and then you would hear this loud crash in the background. And then both of his arms would be filled with a huge clutch of Shasta sodas as he was slowly making his way to the cash register/check stand.
I don't exactly remember what the cashier says or does, but I do recall the monster leaving the checkstand and out of the market with some kind of smirk on his face as he was returning home.
It's an old commercial for Kix cereal. It was animated. This lady needed milk for her Kix cereal. The cows had quit giving milk because every one was using the milk on their cereal. So this lady walked through the countryside asking all the animals if they were cows. She finally saw a cow and asked the cow for some milk. The cow answered "I'm not a cow, I'm a horse. See, winny, winny, neigh neigh. And then the lady answered back Oh I thought you were a cow.

I also though it was funny that the Mad Butcher ad sang, " and you can't beat the Mad Butchers meat."
I thought Wendy and the Mad Butcher should get together.
