Blurb:

This outrageous parody of the prototype 'commercial' family was apparently made as an in-house joke by one of the largest producers of television commercials. Their clients would have never seen this gem, which parodies products as well as the people that buy them.

Review:

Subject: Produced by an actual producer of commercials....
I think it's safe to say that Dark Moon's review of this film is correct, as the company who produced this film (if the metadata is accurate), MPO Productions (aka MPO Television Films, Inc.), was a leading studio for TV commercials and other TV film production in the 1950s & 60s.

I would not be surprised at all if MPO's staff put this together to let off some steam (and to preverve their sanity) after having to deal with the insanity of having to promote endless scads of consumer products for the small screen. I wonder if Roger Price, as featured in this film (and 1/3rd of the publishing company Price Stern Sloan (PSS), publishers of Madlibs and many other books for children and adults), had a hand in the writing of the script, considering he (along with PSS co-founder Leonard Stern) wrote for the Steve Allen-era Tonight Show...

Overall, a quite humorous, well-made, and entertaining film, making fun of the "phoniness" and cliches of TV advertising, then, and today.
