Seems like I knew this cat.................pp
Hard to believe what this guy did on live TV!

During the late 60's, most television programs and commercials were live. There were no "pre-recorded" programs. There were some obvious problems with this method. No "retakes" and "bloopers" were a regular occurrence. This is no blooper! This guy was just VERY upset with his boss, and told it like he thought it was. What a great job of ad libbing. He never misses a beat while the camera man is just about to lose it. The commercial got on the air... but only once. We have to assume he quit right after the commercial -- one way or another.
