And look like a gronk in the process.
Good ol’ Demtel. I remember our family getting the steak knives from them, and they were actually good. Might still be using some today.

No Tim Shaw in that Demtel infomercial, therefore not canon!

Tim Shaw was there between 1992 and 1995, and the company was started in 1985 - like all good things (like me).

Remember that one clearly, probably because ‘Motor City’ is one of my favourite songs from the 90s.

What makes an ad iconic? Vegemite and ‘Not Happy Jan’ top new list
The research was conducted by Cubery, via a panel compiled by Pure Profile. Around 1,000 Australians over 18 were asked to recall the ad they remembered most from childhood, and what made it stick with them.
25% of the respondents cited Vegemite, followed by 19% for the Reading Writing Hotline (1300 655 506), and BBDO’s 2000 ‘Not Happy Jan’ campaign for the Yellow Pages. Brands with prominent jingles, such as Aeroplane Jelly (9% recall) and Cottee’s (7%) rounded out the top five.

It’s a bit odd when the 12 ads are from different generations of childhood. They should have split them up.
