“Let yourself go to Pizza Hut!”

“The second helping of meat is already in.”
Back to our regularly-scheduled commercials today. First up, a spot I particularly like as it features my hometown team, the Los Angeles Dodgers, for Swanson Hungry-Man TV dinners.
Second, a spot for Brown ‘N Serve Sausage. Both commercials aired in November of 1978.
