Back in 1988, McDonald's created a commercial to promote their Double Cheeseburger Reunion, as the fast food retailer was bringing back its Double Cheeseburger and pairing it again with a large order of french fries.
Terry O'ReillyHOST
The commercial begins with Don Adams from the sitcom Get Smart, Grandpa from The Munsters, Eddie Haskell and Mrs. Cleaver from Leave It to Beaver, Gilligan from Gilligan's Island, and Jed Clampett all pulling up to McDonald's in the Beverly Hillbillies' old jalopy.
Terry O'ReillyHOST
It was a 60s sitcom reunion.

great time shooting that.

That Aurora documentary I did started because all the commercials for those games featured the actor Don Adams.
Amabel HollandGUEST
And like, why is the guy from Get Smart in all these commercials for these junky dexterity games? Well, looking into him, I found out that his childhood best friend was the VP of marketing at Aurora.
Amabel HollandGUEST
And they started an advertising agency together.
