There was a silly comment made by our kids today. It reminded me of the house hippo.  
Do you remember this?

We bring it up a few times, and even had the kods watch the commercial. The oldest was smart enough to know that the House Hippo wasnt real, but the youngest was all beliving in it  
 
Also remember the "Dont you put it in your mouth" commercial!

I actually don't remember that one. Do you have a link for it?

I always loved the house hippo commercial, just goes to show make something micro sized and its always cuter than real size lol  
 
I always remember this one, just can't remember what preceded it, Sit ubu sit, good dog, I kept thinking it was named obo but just googled it an its ubu.  
 
louie the lightning bug had a major impact on me, I'm super paranoid working around electricity, like I prefer to turn off whole house breaker instead of just the single circuit lol  
 
Doctor, I smell burnt toast

I remember the house hippo but knew it wasn't real (saying with pride). I have to admit I went to the Hats for Cats website because I fell for it. Hey, you never know. Lol.  
 
I think there were a lot of shows with UBU closing out because it's a production company but I can't think of a single one at the moment.  
 
The one that always pops in my head: If a man you've never met before suddenly gives you flowers, that's Impulse.

This is fun.  
 
Thanks everyone for sharing in lighthearted memories that we can all enjoy.  
 
I remember the big, blue dot. I lived that one, but can't find it on youtube. Anyone have any more?
