(all Swedish accents)
"Eric, where are you going, Eric?"
"It's Tuesday, I'm going to call my mother"
"Hello, MOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMM!!!"
This ad most likely was for AT&T since it came out so long ago or possibly even one of the major Bell's after the split-up in 1982. one of my all time favorites.
I have been trying to find this commercial for a long time!!!! It was my father's favorite commercial in the 70s (he died in the late 70s so this had to have aired before then). I now call my Mom every Tuesday BECAUSE of this commercial. I remember it as a Viking walking in front of his wife out of the house where she is following him asking him "Eric? Where are you going, Eric?" and he replies "It's Tuesday, I have to call my mother". He then heads to the edge of a cliff and he uses a horn of some sort to call his Mom; that is, with a blare of the horn followed with "Hello Mooooooooom?" There is then a reply in an elderly woman's voice that asks "is that you (I can't remember the name)?" The Viking then turns to his wife and they both repeat the name quizzically as it is clear that it is not the same person. It may have been part of a series promoting long distance calling (that is, the "Reach Out and Touch Someone" promo).
OMG I LOVED THAT COMMERCIAL!! But I always thought it was a Viking....
(A glimpse into the Viking era...)
"ERRRREKKK!!!! VEARE ARE YOU GOING ERRRREKKK??"
"It's TOOOOSday....I'm going to call my MUM!!!"
(Climbs a high mountain. Pulls out 8-foot long horn -- picture a really, really, really big tusk-like horn)
"Hulllo MUUUUM!!!!"
"Is that you Sheldon???"
If anyone finds it, PLEASE post it!! I agree it must've been in Ohio because I grew up outside of Cleveland.
I was just talking about this to my wife. She had no idea what I was talking about. Wish we could find it somewhere.
I just mentioned this to my daughter today! I wonder if it was strictly an Ohio area commercial? I was living in the Mentor/Painesville area at the time.
It is the mother with the daughter who will not stop talking!
Yes, he passed away last week. He was funerlized on Tuesday in Chicago.
