I've been doing this project on Instagram for the past few Christmases – seems like a good year to bring it over to Bluesky.

The VHS Ad-vent Calendar. One retro holiday commercial a day, December 1-24.

Why has 7up never brought back the Santa's elves commercials, they would make a killing!

Tbh, I'd rather see the return of the Cool Spot ad at the 5:26 mark of this compilation of past Ad-vent Calendars.

2024 VHS Ad-vent Calendar Day 4: Top of the Pops, "A Very Special Christmas" | 1987, from the debut broadcast of A Garfield Christmas on Chicago's WBBM

Ad-vent Calendar B-side: While the first A Very Special Christmas compilation became a holiday perennial, CBS' attempt to import Top of the Pops to the U.S. petered out by 1988. The full special's on YouTube – would you believe the U2 segment was filmed during the Rattle and Hum sessions?

Exciting things were happening in primetime on December 23, 1987.

"Let's go Krogering" has been stuck in my brain since my college years in the Midwest in the mid 80s.

A truly powerful jingle. It'd been years since I last heard it, but I felt a sense of total recall upon digging up this ad.

Looking forward to this every day!
