Larry's going to save me.
Any minute now.
Television can control public opinion
more effectively...
...than armies of secret police
because television is entirely voluntary.
The American government forces
our children to attend school.
But nobody forces them to watch TV.
Americans of all ages submit
to television.
Television is the American ideal.
Persuasion without coercion.
Nobody makes us watch.
a free people would voluntarily spend...
sitting in front of a box with pictures?
Fifteen years sitting in prison
is punishment.
of a television set is entertainment.
And the average American now spends
more than one and a half years of his life...
...watching television commercials.
Fifty minutes every day of his life
watching commercials.
Now, that's power.
Yet the commercials have been
as crude as snake-oil pitches till now.
Now, Reston Industries
has scientific commercials.
Commercials combining
computer-generated actors...
...in real settings,
in a highly effective way.
The way of the future.
Reston Industries is proud to present...
...its latest visual development.
- Reston Industries is...
- Larry.
Hey, what's with the uniform?
Hi, I'm Candy.
Wherever you find the cutting edge
of high technology and corporate growth...
... that's where you'll find
Reston Industries.

makes the future happen.
In 37 countries
spanning the globe...
... Norway to Nicaragua,
Spain to Singapore...

... for innovation in science and technology
and a better life for all.
Where's that son of a b*tch?
Reston Industries
is a name you can count on.
Reston Industries
makes the future happen.
Reston Industries doesn't just plan
the future, it's shaping it.
Ladies and gentlemen,
Senator Robert Harrison...
... candidate for president
of the United States.
Hello, I'm Senator Harrison...
... sharing with you
some of my private thoughts...
... on the eve of the national election.
Perhaps you feel as I do...
... that our great nation faces
trying times...
... overwhelmed by inflation,
swamped with bureaucracy...
... manipulated by faceless corporations
with their expensive media campaigns.
It truly seems a dark hour for liberty.
But there is something
we can do about it.
We can return to the individual freedom
and values of our pioneer forefathers...
... who forged our country
and made it great.
A vote for me is a vote
for the old American tradition.
They don't know
what's being done to them.
They're fascinated. Look at them.
Against pollution
of our environment and our lives.
There is still time.
I admit it,
I have troubles with bugs and roaches.
- Even in my perfect and spotless kitchen.
- That's me.
What with
everybody coming and going...
... the rush and bustle of a large family,
what is a mother to do?
Well, I found my answer right here,
with new formula Blast.
Fast, painlessly, and odorlessly.
Even roaches...
Damn, how did he get here?
No muss and fuss,
and no unwelcome houseguests.
Get new...
Gotta stop him...
What's the matter, honey?
Oh, these pressures, I can't sleep.
I'm all upset.
Don't worry, darling,
I have just the thing for a sleepless night.
New gentle action Snooze.
But I've tried medicines before
and nothing helps.
Snooze is more than just medicine.
- Oh, I don't know.
- Well, I do. Snooze is a...
New Snooze is more than medicine.
It's trust.
Trust Snooze to give you the restful sleep
you've always wanted.
Other medicines take your money,
you'll save with new Snooze...
... for a restful, refreshing sleep.
New Snooze is more than medicine.
It's trust.
New Snooze.
Feel better the next day, snooze tonight.
Isn't it gorgeous?
Nothing could be more beautiful
after a day in the sun...
... than the economical
new Dodge Omni Deluxe.
This car is so hot,
it will leave you breathless.
But let's look at those interiors.
Gives European access with deep,
Dodge pile carpeting...
... for sporting space you'll love.
Nothing could be better
than the new Omni interior...
... including digital dash clock...
- is standard equipment.
But don't take my word for it.
- See for yourself at your local dealership.
- Hey, that's Reston.
- And remember, seeing is believing.
- What's he trying to prove?
I love Dodge. You will too.
New Dodge Omni.
Makes sense for American families.
Why don't you drive one today?
Remember, seeing is believing.
Oh, Mom, do we have to have
the same old thing again?
Yeah, I'm tired of the same
old breakfast.
They're right, dear.
How about something different?
Jennifer?
New Oaties are the oat cereal...
... that families adore when they're tired
of the same old thing.
New Oaties...
Spurt makes any mouth fresh and alive.
New Spurt makes any mouth come alive.
Get Spurt and feel that fresh, alive taste.
New Spurt toothpaste, feel fresh again.
New Spurt toothpaste,
a product of Reston Industries.
You all right?
Oh, sure.
Hey, that's a nasty cut.
You ought to get that fixed.
You're a doctor.
No, I can't do it.
I don't date my patients.
- I am one of your patients.
- Not anymore.
Why not?
Because I wanna take you out
on a date.
Oh, Larry.
I don't know if I could take
another one of your evenings.
That's where you'll find
Reston Industries.
Thirty-seven countries
spanning the globe...
... from Norway to Nicaragua,
from Spain to Singapore.
Reston Industries stands for growth,
for innovation in science...
... a better life for all of us.
Reston Industries
is a name you can count on.
Because Reston Industries
makes the future happen.
