1970s slogan No.101: ‘Datsun. We are driven.’ (B-210 GX commercial, 1978)
“Nobody demands more from a Datsun…than Datsun!”
On this fine, lazy Sunday, we step back in time to 1978 and view two commercials you may have caught that year.
First up, one for the Datsun B-210 GX that aired in early January ’78 (produced in 1977). After that, a fun promo for the game show, Match Game PM. In the episode in question, host Gene Rayburn gets help filling in the blanks from; Charles Nelson Reilly, Gary Burghoff, Brett Somers, Loni Anderson, McLean Stevenson and Marcia Wallace.
Previously on 70s Spots: Bernie Kopell & Bob Hope (1976)
More Datsun at Bionic Disco: Rad Ads: Trans-Am Champion Datsun (1972)
Match Game is one of my favorite game shows. I still watch it on GSN.
The interplay between the guests is always fun.
