That drunk driving add the narrator sounds like Kevin Conroy who did voice acting from Batman the animated series back in the 90s because I remember that drunk driving out which shows a high school kid dressed up in his graduation suit and leader lost his life before he could even graduate and he turns into a skeleton in the picture which scared the crap out of me as a teenager.

The only time you'll hear Sid Dougherty on a station that isn't 17 (on that Macaco ad)

I love seeing the Philly 57 movie intros, outros and bumpers; it brings back fond memories of my childhood in the 1980's! Philly 57 was the station where I first saw BEYOND THE DOOR 1 and 2 (aka Mario Bava's SHOCK) and many martial arts movies!

Theses commercials really brings back memories because I used to watch all of these ads as a teenager because I remember the Popeet containers to the Fist Of The White Lotus Tv Trailer & what scare me as a teenager over 30 years ago is the don’t drink & drive ad which featured a young man in his high school graduation pic which turned into a skeleton & all because it really scared me back then but after 30Something years later WGBS Philly 57’ is now called The CWPHILLY .

Philly 57 is now independent and The CW has moved to WPHL (known as PHL17 CW).
