MAYBERRY BLIPVERTS

Nowadays, the commercials are built right in to the program, with all of the product placements. But once upon a time, when shows were completely sponsored by one company, the TV characters appeared in those blipverts to extol their sponsor's goods.

First up.... How about a little Sanka to help you wake up this morning?





And what would a Saturday morning be like without some cereal to go with your television?





BCnU!
