TV commercials that stick in your mind

I've only seen this one once, new Geico commercial. Scene a campground with outhouse in mid ground, large brown bear comes out of outhouse with a newspaper under his arm, scratches his belly then walks off. Announcers' voice "now we know the answer to that question."
 
I was going to add again to the "Where's the beef" since I don't know if I will ever forget that...

But then someone mentioned the trunk monkey commercials... Those are classics now.... LUV 'EM
 
commericals

Antizyme Listerine Antizyme tooth paste. Late fifties.........I think sung by Bucky Beaver. ????????? Sad I know......
 
The Alka0Seltzer commercials with the two households sharing a medicine cabinet and the guy yelling for Mona. I guess I don't do TV much.
There was another in the late 80's with a blond swinging a necklace saying "And I don't eat meat, 'cause I'm a Veterinarian".

I liked the old "Plop, plop, fizz, fizz" ads. One ad I'm utterly sick of is that stinkin' "Progressive Insurance" spot with the dark haired gal dressed in white. Few TV things please me more than fast forwarding through those ads when I'm watching something on tape. If not a taped show--I just change the channel for a couple minutes, problem solved!
 
I liked the Geico cavemen, especially the one where the one orders the "roast duck with the mango salsa". Not enough material there to sustain a series, however, or even one half-hour show.
 
"Who wears short shorts?"
George Raft in Alka-Seltzer commercial.
When Coca-Cola and Pepsi Cola were being sold in the Soviet Union for the first time, RC Cola ran an ad that said you could only get it if you lived in the free world. That upset somebody, and they only ran it a few times.
 
588-2300 EMPIRE from a Chicago area carpet store. Haven't heard the commercial for years, but the music and words pop into my mind every so often.
