I thought this was so interesting to see Jimmie Walker in an old 70's commercial! Wow have things changed since then. I wasn't around but it was interesting to see that. Was those things by Panasonic very popular??

ok, that is good because I have been doing a lot of research on your show CPO Sharkey and I came to the conclusion I have to see it-lol. I should be up and trading again soon. I have sent applications to a couple of places so I should start working hopefully in a couple of weeks.

I never knew Jimmy Walker starred in commercials, I just remember him being in the movie "Let's do it again" with Bill Cosby, John Amos, and Sidney Poiter which I have a copy of in my Soul 70s movie collection. The commercial is :lol:

It was alright. I just bought the flick to add it to my 70s collection. But everyone has the own opinion about what a good movie is. Check it out anyway. It does has a nice soundtrack featuring the Staple Singers.
