i have a wildly varying sleep schedule. fortunately for me, that means that i get to catch the occasional infomercial made by time life.

if you haven’t seen a time life informercial, i strongly suggest staying up for one. why? because they’re so funny – without meaning to be. they’re overly scripted, with totally unemphatic “wow” and “woooo” and “check out this classic hit” interludes. i want to make one for the internet. totally tongue in cheek, but for something ridiculous like cooking supplies.

my favorite happens to be the air supply one – 10 discs of unforgettable soft rock (followed closely by the soul story.)... the full commercials totally shatter the unintentional comedy scale. i found an excerpt of one on youtube. it’s totally below this post. check out the guys from air supply, with their giant lemonade, vast knowledge of soft rock, and magical appearing guitar. it’s epic – but you need the whole commercial to get the experience.

i mean, look at the guy who sings pina colada – did you ever expect that?!

over and out, friends and barbarians. have a great weekend!
