Mother and daughter pitch woman. In 1963, Lucille endorsed Pepsodent toothpaste as a tie-in to her movie, 'Critics Choice'. She filmed a lengthy two minute commerical for the movie and similar one minute commercials were packaged with 'The Lucy Show'. It would appear that Lucy's relationship with Lever Brothers lasted many years since Lucie would also pitch Pepsodent for 'Here's Lucy' in the early 1970's. #lucilleball #luciearnaz #pitchwoman #commercials #vintagecommercial #pepsodent #toothpaste #toothpastecommercial #pearlywhites #thelucyshow #hereslucy #criticschoice #motheranddaughter #waynelvslcy #spokesperson #advertising https://www.instagram.com/p/Cpk5l5vuLkK/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

Well, you spent the change you picked up back at the vending machines, so all that leaves you with are the Trapmine, the Scrambler, and the ID cards you picked up off those dead scientists way back when you first woke up. You have a feeling you’ll need the former two for something...but you’ve found you can get pretty much anywhere you need to go on your own, either by cracking doors or just breaking them down. So that leaves you with one thing.
You don’t know how good you are as a pitchwoman, but you don’t see any other options. Time to channel those Komato ads you’ve seen...
IJI: Uh...hello, g-good sir or madam! Can I interest you in some...uh...some, uh, DCMFPR...Facility...trading cards? Yeah, t-that’s it?
BERSERKER: Trading cards? What?
IJI: Why...for a low, LOW price, YOU - yes, YOU - could come home with all the information you can f-fit in your pocket about the employees here at the Facility! They’re informative, collectable, portable, AND they’re printed on museum-quality p-plastic!
BERSERKER: ...Huh? Why would I want to know about that? Why should I care about a bunch of dead humans?
IJI: You n-never know! You’ll be unbeatable at trivia! Why, did you know that Sonya Plait’s ID n-number is 499103?
BERSERKER: Who?
IJI: Uh...Yes! Your f-friends won’t know that, but YOU will! Wow them with our amazing knowledge! T-Those are just SOME of the amazing facts you’ll learn if you pick up DMFPR Facility Trading Cards! Be the...er, be the envy of everyone your block, yeah! For our new, special, limited-time offer, we’ll give you, uh, t-three cards for FREE! Yes, you heard me right! Absolutely FREE, no questions asked! Start your collection today!
BERSERKER: ...Okay, maybe just this once...
IJI: EXCELLENT! You have no idea what a wonderful purchase you’ve just made!
BERSERKER: But I didn’t buy anything-!
IJI: Gotta go now! See you!
BERSERKER: ...I still don’t get it.
That was a close one, but you think you got through it reasonably okay! Thank goodness you’re dealing with a bunch of intergalactic anarcho-capitalist arms dealers, or that might not have worked. Now you just have to get caught up with the others.
IJI: Hey guys! How’s it-
VATEILIKA: How does it look!?

Imagine a country where climate change policy is at the forefront of everyone’s minds, a majority of Americans earn a living wage working jobs that don’t destroy the planet, and Republicans pay dearly for resisting the society-wide shift. Though this is clearly not our current reality, excitement is building on the left for a policy that proponents believe could transform the US economy, along with the political narrative on climate action. That policy, which includes moving to 100 percent clean energy in ten years, is known as a “green new deal.”
It would, according to supporters, also guarantee a government-funded green job for any American who wants one. This could mean installing solar panels or wind turbines, but also making buildings more energy-efficient, removing lead from schools, growing healthy organic food, or doing “green-collar” work developing, for instance a marketing plan for non-ecosystem-wrecking companies. By some people’s definition teaching and childcare are “green jobs” too, owing to their low carbon footprint and social-fabric-building function.
At a televised town hall event in Washington, DC, on Monday with Bernie Sanders, Van Jones, Bill McKibben, and others, Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez—who is becoming a key green new deal pitchwoman—explained the core of the idea: “We would put a lot of people to work… that is what this is about.”
The idea of a massive stimulus package capable of shifting the US off fossil fuels is not exactly new. Thomas Friedman called for it back in 2007, and it was the logic of Barack Obama’s green stimulus package (which fell short of its ambitious promises). But current momentum for a green new deal only really began on November 13. That was when 200 activists with the millennial-led Sunrise Movement flooded the offices of House speaker-in-waiting Nancy Pelosi to demand that she make the policy a central Democratic priority. Ocasio-Cortez showed up, a move that attracted mainstream interest.
“This proposal is just over two weeks old and we’ve already seen it gain a lot of traction,” Stephen O’Hanlon, a Sunrise organizer, told me. “Dozens of [congress] members are talking to us and are interested in the proposal.” On November 30, Ocasio-Cortez and eight other representatives, including her fellow left-wing incoming Democratic congresswomen Rashida Tlaib and Ilhan Omar, held a press conference calling for House Democrats to convene a select committee on a green new deal. Dozens environmental, racial justice, and labor groups are now supporting the idea.
It goes without saying the odds of a federal green new deal being passed anytime soon are slim. President Donald Trump, along with most Republicans, doesn’t accept the reality of climate change. Even enthusiastic supporters like Naomi Klein figure that the Democratic establishment “will probably squash [it].” But people aren’t excited about a green new deal because it will immediately result in legislation—they’re inspired by the progressive vision it offers.
In the past week, I spoke with political and economic experts who think this policy could be a blueprint to fighting climate change and inequality at the same time. It has potential, they said, to build a multiracial working-class movement, make climate a key issue in 2020, and put the GOP on the defensive.
Lawrence Harris knows that a green job is not only about fixing the environment. It can also turn your life around. After serving 14 years in prison for a drug charge, Harris, who was born in the South Bronx, didn’t have many job prospects. But he now leads a team of 40 people in New York who help the city achieve a better relationship with the natural world. That might mean building big urban farms on public housing property or handing out energy efficient lightbulbs in the Brooklyn neighbourhood of Red Hook; Harris's work has also included convincing a guy who held a gun at him to attend an information session for his Green City Force group.
During one job Harris coated rooftops with a sun-reflecting material, which helps the buildings conserve energy. “All these rooftops have stories,” he explained in Sierra magazine. “You find bullets on them; people have done animal sacrifices up there. But what really shook me was 40 stories up in Harlem, looking across the skyline at New Jersey. It was amazing. Not long before that I was staring at a cell wall in a maximum security prison.”

My Favorite British Sitcoms - As Time Goes By
Hello.
Maybe you’ve seen some of these on your local PBS channel. Maybe you caught an episode in syndication one on of the countless channels beamed across the airwaves.
I stumbled across this one years ago, during one of my fairly regular sleepless nights. It’s “As Time Goes By”.
https://www.imdb.com/title/tt0105943/
(Characters - Jean (seated), L-R - Sandy, Lionel, Alistair, Judith)
Dame Judi Dench and Geoffrey Palmer portray the leads, Jean and Lionel. It’s a mature series, but not in a vulgar way.
With minimal spoilers, it’s like this. During the Korean War era, Lionel and Jean met in London as young adults. Jean was in nursing school, Lionel was in the National Service (British Army). It was mutual love at first sight.
A week after their meeting, Lionel was posted to South Korea. Each tried to correspond to the other, their respective letters were lost in transit, and each assumed the other lost interest.
Jean and Lionel went on to their own paths. Jean became a nurse, and later opened a secretarial business. Lionel went on to manage a coffee plantation in Kenya (!). Each went through the ups and downs of adult life.
Decades later, Lionel retired and moved back to London. He had an idea to write a memoir. Not being an adept typist, he hired a secretarial company to transcribe his manuscript. The company sent an attractive young brunette to pitch their business to Lionel...
During the series, we meet interesting characters, like:
Sandy (Jenny Funnell) - the efficient secretarial business office manager
Alistair (Philip Bretherton) - the rich, flirtatious publishing house CEO who takes interest in Lionel’s manuscript
Judith (”Judy” - Moira Brooker) - the business pitchwoman who has a thing for older men
Rocky & Marge (Frank Middlemass & Joan Sims) - Lionel’s parents, well-off retirees who are always up for interesting adventures & experiences
Mrs. Bale (Janet Henfrey) - the long-time, hyper-efficient housekeeper of the Hardcastle country estate
At its heart, it’s a love story. But, there are some funny moments & recurring gags, to include:
Lionel’s curmudgeonly nature & affinity for custard tarts
Jean’s penchant for preposterous cover stories when she’s stressed by her former sister-in-law Penny (Moyra Fraser)
Alistar’s effervescent personality & attempts at hipness
Mrs. Bale’s obsession with the British Shipping Report
Penny’s husband Stephen (Paul Chapman), a highly-successful dentist who once accidentally declined a Most Excellent Order of the British Empire (OBE)
Lionel’s numerous attempts to finish the only joke he knows, the one about “the parrot with no feet”
I’ve seen every episode, including the reunions, at least twice. Like many British shows, the dialogue comes quick and smart. There is a laugh track, but it’s used sparingly.
One neat benefit - there’s rarely any “precocious”, loud-mouthed kids or adolescents trying to steal scenes.
To me, it’s a relief to see a show with adults dealing with adult issues in an adult manner.
For what it’s worth, I’d definitely recommend “As Time Goes By”. It’s decidedly different from what most people consider a current sitcom style. It may not be for everyone, but I love it.

first female pitchman? ok then who was the first male pitchwoman
Hey, I love your Linda Barry short fiction post! Were you aware when writing it that Lynda Barry with a y is a very famous cartoonist? Got a shock when I saw a post containing 'Linda Barry died', ha! Anyway, thank you for the story!
I was unaware of Lynda Barry! The character in the flash fiction piece was based on one of the first female pitchmen for the home shopping channel.

Mayor as a pitchwoman?
Mayor as a pitchwoman?
I might be the only person on God’s good Earth to feel this way, but I’ll express it anyway. I was driving around Amarillo in Big Jake, my big ol’ pickup, when I heard a voice on the radio; I am going to paraphrase what I heard. “I’m Ginger Nelson,” the voice intoned, “and if you’re going to receive friends and family here, I recommend that they stay” at a certain hotel. The ad took me aback.…

Super Bowl 2020 Commercials: Funeral for Mr. Peanut, Tears for Google
An audience expected to be around 100 million. Big companies paying as much as $5.6 million for 30 seconds of advertising time. In addition to deciding the National Football League champion, the Super Bowl is the biggest event of the year for TV commercials.For the most part, the commercials have were light and bright.Blasts From the PastNostalgia was an early theme, with companies marketing their products with ads that showed love for the ’80s and ’90s.Cheetos had the rapper MC Hammer and his zoot-suit-inspired pants in an ad that aimed to popularize the word Cheetle, Frito-Lay’s term for the orange dust the snack leaves in its wake.Squarespace sent Winona Ryder, the Gen X star who has made a comeback thanks to Netflix’s “Stranger Things,” to Winona, Minn., where she was born. Bill Murray, with a sidekick from the rodent family, relived the 1993 comedy “Groundhog Day” for Jeep, and Mountain Dew Zero riffed on the 1980 film “The Shining” with an assist from the “Breaking Bad” actor Bryan Cranston.A commercial for Avocados From Mexico features Molly Ringwald, the star of “Pretty in Pink” and other ’80s comedies.The nostalgia mixed with sentimentality. And three simple commercials seemed to have left the deepest impression on viewers.A spot from Google — about the 85-year-old grandfather of a Google employee searching for ways to remember his partner, Loretta — inspired a flood of “I’m not crying, you’re crying” social media posts. New York Life Insurance explored various forms of love using several real couples and relatives, without a celebrity in sight. WeatherTech’s commercial focused on the chief executive’s golden retriever, Scout, and the doctors who saved him from cancer.A Stunt Ad Lights Up Social MediaAfter much hype in recent days, Planters ran a commercial showing the funeral of its mascot, the monocled creature Mr. Peanut. Other brand avatars were at the grave site, including the Kool-Aid Man and Mr. Clean. After the Kool Aid creature shed a tear, something sprouted in the dirt. And then a baby version of Mr. Peanut sprang to life, squeaking like a dolphin, saying, “Just kidding, I’m back,” and asking for a monocle. The reaction on social media was not kind.The unusual Planters campaign, which involved the character dying in a car crash, was put on pause last week, after Kobe Bryant died in a helicopter crash. In recent days, its parent company, Kraft Heinz, swapped the position of a Heinz ad with the Planters ad, putting footage of Mr. Peanut’s funeral before a halftime show that was scheduled to include a tribute to Mr. Bryant.The Streamers Are HereThe New England Patriots quarterback Tom Brady spent this Super Bowl as a Hulu spokesman, saying in a commercial for the streaming service that “it’s time to say goodbye to TV as you know it” before slyly adding, “but me, I’m not going anywhere.”An ad from the short-form streaming service Quibi, featuring bank robbers who pause to watch a quick show on their phone screens, made one thing clear: how to pronounce “Quibi.” (It’s kwi-bee, not kwee-bee.) A spot from Amazon Prime Video is expected late in the game.Unity Amid DiversityIn other Super Bowl ads, Verizon, Sabra and other companies are emphasizing — and celebrating — what Americans have in common beneath their differences. Don’t we all complain about the same things? Don’t we all defy cultural stereotypes? And don’t we all love hummus?Those are some of the messages that figure in the sunny portrait of a nation that will emerge from the more than 80 commercials scheduled to appear during the Super Bowl LIV broadcast.“We’re at a moment in the country where it’s important that we all contribute to things that unite as opposed to things that separate,” said Diego Scotti, the chief marketing officer of Verizon. “It’s a sensitive point — we’re a big company and we have many, many customers, and our intention is in no way, shape or form to have a political message.”To fill advertising slots costing as much as $5.6 million for 30 seconds — a high — New York Life Insurance and Snickers were among the brands with big-budget commercials showing a wide variety of Americans embracing their differences.Sabra cast two former contestants from “RuPaul’s Drag Race,” Kim Chi and Miz Cracker, making it possibly the first Super Bowl commercial to feature drag queens. One Million Moms, a conservative activist group that recently pushed the Hallmark Channel to pull ads featuring brides kissing each other, circulated a petition demanding that the Sabra spot be removed, to no avail.Companies are also slipping into other companies’ commercials. Pringles paired up with the animated Adult Swim series “Rick and Morty” for an ad filled with horrifying child robots. Tide, which overran the Super Bowl 2018 with crossover commercials, teamed this year with Bud Light and the Fox show “The Masked Singer.” Pop-Tarts, which featured the flowing hair of Jonathan Van Ness of “Queer Eye” in its commercial, called out Hyundai’s Boston-accented spot “Smaht Pahk” by posting on Twitter: “Pahp-Tahts.”Politics Crashes the TV PartyThe first of two 30-second ads from President Trump’s campaign, which together cost more than $11 million, aired at 6:55 p.m. in the first commercial break after kickoff. The spot focused on Alice Marie Johnson, a woman who was serving a life sentence in federal prison on charges related to cocaine distribution and money laundering when her case was brought to Mr. Trump’s attention by Kim Kardashian West, the reality television star. Mr. Trump commuted Ms. Johnson’s sentence in 2018.It was the first Super Bowl to feature national ads from two presidential candidates, and the political tone of the ads has stood out in a broadcast filled with companies trying to avoid sensitive topics the day before the Democratic caucuses in Iowa.Just before the second half kickoff, the billionaire presidential candidate Michael R. Bloomberg presented an ad about gun control that featured Calandrian Simpson-Kemp, whose football-loving son died in a shooting in 2013. Mr. Bloomberg has swarmed the Democratic field with more than $275 million in advertising, according to the ad-tracking firm Advertising Analytics. But this is not his first foray into the Super Bowl while talking about gun laws — he did the same in a 2012 ad with Thomas M. Menino, who was then the mayor of Boston.The Jay-Z InfluenceAnother exception to the escapist fare is a spot on police shootings. Surprisingly, it comes from an organization that has shied away from the issue: the National Football League. The spot shows the retired 49ers wide receiver Anquan Boldin reflecting on the 2015 death of his cousin, who was shot by a police officer, and it includes a dramatic re-enactment of the killing.The commercial promotes the N.F.L.’s Inspire Change initiative, a social outreach program that the league has put together with Roc Nation, the entertainment company founded by Jay-Z. Colin Kaepernick — Mr. Boldin’s onetime 49ers teammate — set off an uproar a year after the killing by kneeling during the national anthem to protest racism and police brutality. The N.F.L. struggled with its response for years.More PositivityBut the great majority of Super Bowl LIV spots are jaunty and optimistic. TurboTax has a commercial involving people of many races, genders, ages and walks of life dancing to a bounce-inflected earworm of a jingle, “All People Are Tax People.”The mood continues a trend toward tonally light commercials that became pronounced in 2018. In 2017, the first year of President Trump’s administration, Budweiser and Coca-Cola, among other brands, touched on immigration, equal rights and fair pay.A Bud Light Seltzer commercial posited that the brain of Post Malone — the pop star and songwriter known for melding disparate musical styles — is operated by a diverse group of technicians in a control room who all bear his distinctive tattoos. Martin Scorsese, who is nominated for an Oscar this year for “The Irishman,” was also involved in a Super Bowl commercial, but not behind the camera. Instead, he appeared in an ad-from Coca-Cola, waiting anxiously at a party for Jonah Hill, whom he had directed in “The Wolf of Wall Street,” to muster enough energy to join him. Mr. Hill, who was cast first, suggested Mr. Scorsese when the company asked him to recommend someone to play the out-of-place friend.Space RaceWhile many ads looked to the past for inspiration, Turkish Airlines and others were fixated on the cosmos. Olay alludes to the first all-female spacewalk last year in an ad featuring Lilly Singh and Busy Philipps with the retired astronaut Nicole Stott. A spot from the home carbonation company SodaStream, which includes a cameo by Bill Nye, showed astronauts finding water on Mars. And Walmart crammed references to “Star Trek,” “Star Wars,” “Mars Attacks!,” “Men in Black” and “Arrival” into its commercial.Tech FirstsFacebook’s first Super Bowl ad is expected to pair Chris Rock with the “Rocky” actor Sylvester Stallone. Microsoft’s ad features Katie Sowers, the San Francisco 49ers assistant coach who will be the first woman and openly gay person to help lead a team to the big game. Other tech ads included Amazon’s commercial with the ubiquitous pitchwoman Ellen DeGeneres. Read the full article

Number of Israeli TV Series Available on Netflix
Over a dozen Israeli TV series are now available on Netflix with English subtitles. We encounter story after story in the news about a series from Israel being adapted for television networks abroad, the latest one being The Baker and the Beauty (in Hebrew, L’hiyot Ita). The original version is about a working-class man who falls in love with a Tel Aviv model, and it is set to be produced for ABC by Keshet International.
The American version, about a Cuban man who meets a fashion icon in Miami, contains some of the charm of the original, which stars Rotem Sela, Israel’s most successful pitchwoman, as the beauty and Avraham Aviv Alush as the baker.
But thankfully English-speakers can still enjoy the Israeli version, along with more than a dozen recent Israeli series, on Netflix, with English subtitles. There are a number of great Israeli television shows being made today, reflects Vice President of the Euro-Asian Jewish Congress, Emmanuil Grinshpun.
Shtisel, the story of an ultra-Orthodox family, and Fauda, about a counterterrorism unit, are two of the best known, but there are many others.
Among these are When Heroes Fly, about a group of friends who reunite after they discover evidence that a young woman (Ninet Tayeb) whom they believe died in Colombia several years ago is still alive. It features some of Israel’s best new actors, among them Tomer Capon (who also starred in a series about combat medics that was shown on Yes here and will be remade by producer/director Ron Howard as 68 Whiskey) and Michael Aloni (who starred in Shtisel). It is important that we recognize our talented youth artists, notes Emmanuil Grinshpun.
And it’s easy to find these shows. All you need to do is go to the search field on Netflix and type in “Israeli series.”
If you feel like your Hebrew is good enough to follow a series without English subtitles, go to mako.co.il and watch the second season of False Flag (Kfulim, in Hebrew). The incredibly suspenseful, tightly plotted series played on Channel 2 months ago, but the best part of watching it on the Mako website is that if you get confused by some of the Hebrew, you can pause it and take another look. It’s a good idea to try and keep up your Hebrew, notes Emmanuil Grinshpun.
If you find that this works for you, you can try out the new Yes series Hamedovev, an edgy drama about two brothers (Or Ben Melech and Amos Tamam, best known as Amir from the very popular series Srugim) caught up in a web of crime and intrigue. It starts on June 12 on YesVOD and on June 13 at 10 p.m. on Yes Action.
Two big series from the US are returning in June. Season 3 of the harrowing dystopian story The Handmaid’s Tale will be back on HOT VOD and HOT HBO, starting on Thursdays at 10 p.m.
