You're gonna bubble after all... (Bubble Gum Weekend)

This occasional feature usually talks about specific gum commercials. But this is one that apparently never aired.

A few years ago, someone made a spoof of the opening sequence of 'The Mary Tyler Moore Show' - the popular 1970s sitcom. This spoof was designed as an ad for Care-Free gum - one of the most widely ridiculed brands of beegee among gum connoisseurs.

If not sure if Care-Free is still available, so instead of embedding the video and giving free ad space to a product that may still exist, I'll post a link to it Out Of An Abundance Of Caution (tm)...

In that commersh, an actress portraying Mary Tyler Moore chomps a big ol' wad of gee. She even bubbles a couple times - in public, no less! Countless people witnessed these bubs.

No 'Supertrain' or 'Me & Mrs. C' spoofs appear imminent.
