Art Carney as TV Land's EDvice Man: - Sitcoms Online Message Boards

This commerical aired on TV Land in 2000. I know Art was retired by this point, but the actor who played a very old Ed Norton looked and sounded like Art Carney back then. Did Art come out of retirement to make this commerical? If he didn't, the resemblence between that actor and a then-82-year-old Art Carney may look frightening.

In this commerical, "Ed Norton" is reading letters from people asking questions and Ed would respond in normal "Ed Norton" fashion.

Here are the images:

I remember these fondly, and that was indeed our own Art Carney!
