After looking over some of the commercial jingles I have I see that I am missing my favorite. Once I find it I will post it, but until then, you'll have to wait to see which one it is.
So today we have three that are kind of related.
First:
Mr. Clean
Next there's:
AlkaSeltzer
And finally, reaching way back, we have:
Brylcream
because a little dab will do ya.
More soon.

Commercial Jingles We Grew Up With Part 2
Some of the commercials were used by others later on even if slightly altered. Case in point:
Slinky
Which was used in the Ren and Stimpy Show and renamed Log.
Other commercial jingles kept running over and over in our heads such as:
The Meow Mix Commercial.
Then there were those that were a bit too long and a tad too bouncy:
Rice Crispies
For example.
Well that's it for today. Stay tuned for more commercial hits tomorrow.

Commercial Jingles We Grew Up With
Many of us grew up hearing certain jingles on the radio and on TV that have stuck with us throughout our lives. Some we hated and some we enjoyed. Some we couldn't get out of our head no matter how we tried. Here are a few that I have enjoyed over the years, that I feel didn't drive me too insane after several hundred listenings.
Sara Lee
Chili's
Dr. Pepper
Ken-L-Ration
Stick around and I'll have some more next time. (They will even be better than these.)

Where did Gene Roddenberry get the idea for the Star Trek Theme?
I was over at IMDB a little while ago and noticed that someone else had figured out why "Daisy" was used as the song that the computer, HAL, sang in 2001: A Space Odyssey. I had been aware of this information for several years but never thought to blog about it before.
Then I remembered a video I put together last year. It explains where I believe that Gene Roddenberry came up with the idea for the opening of his Star Trek Series. It's from the Outer Limits episode that starred William Shatner entitled: "Cold Hands, Warm Heart" (1964)
So I include the mashup here and see if you don't agree.
