80's TV: Connect Four Commercials

Who didn't have a Connect Four game in the 70's and 80's? I had one but the legs broke so it was kind of useless after that.

One of the reasons they were so popular was because of their TV commercials.



Even today, you still hear references to "Pretty sneaky, sis" on sitcoms.

While that ad played for years, it was later replaced with this one:



No "pretty sneaky, sis" line, but that song is now stuck in my head again, after not having heard it for 20 years or so.

And in case you were wondering, they still sell Connect Four. Just noticed they were on Amazon.
