Will Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 I had trouble watching it too but found a b&w version of it here I love this commercial. It is so funny. I wonder what other Milton Bradley commercials there were and if they are online. Wasn't this 1973 or 1975? By the way I love seeing Lucy's later commercials. Unlike during ILL/LDCH she didn't do many more I recall besides this one. I think there was just the 1979 Red Cross PSA and the 1986 YWCA PSA.

Brock Posted August 6, 2014 Author Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 There were at least two other Milton Bradley commercials. One features Vanda. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FreddieMertz Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 I'm pretty sure these are the ones they play in the last room of the lucy/desi museum. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted August 6, 2014 Report Share Posted August 6, 2014 There were at least two other Milton Bradley commercials. One features Vanda. Thanks for posting this. I don't know that I've ever seen this one or the one with Vanda. The only one I remember seeing was for Pivot Pool which had the cue ball cradled on a string between two little plastic towers (which looked like they would break easily) and you hit the ball into the pocket that way. Lucy enters a pool hall (through the barely disguised Unique Employment doors) and says something like "I brought my bathing suit. Where's the pool?" Two muscle-headed pool players are there and one says "It ain't that kind of pool lady." She Pivot Pool sharks them in a montaged game.(there must have been some other dialogue during this). And one says "Whadid ya say ya name was?" Lucy: "Lucy. FAST Lucy." Then her voice over. "If it hasn't got a pivot, it isn't Pivot Pool....by Milton Bradley" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Neil Posted May 18, 2019 Report Share Posted May 18, 2019 Love it. Not sure what Mame costume that is. I love that she's so palsy with "Jim" from the Toy Fair. Lucy was certainly an enthusiastic product spokeswoman. I don't know that Pivot Golf took off. Did Pivot Pool actually do as well as Lucy implies? Looks like another cheap-ie that will break soon. Were there only 3 "Lucy Games": this one, Pivot Pool, and Solotaire? Was Body Language considered a Lucy game? I'm assuming Milton Bradley contracted with LBP for these commercials/endorsements. I wonder if this was Gary's effort to widen LBP's scope. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cross-Up and Slam Back were 2 more games I found. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
