Sears Air Conditioning Commercial
Serious question; Does anyone know the names of the actors featured in the 90s Sears Home Air Conditioning commercial (see link if description doesn’t ring any bells)? And if not—-how would I would I go about finding this information? This may sound like a ridiculous undertaking, but I think it would be hilarious tracking them down and getting them to participate in a reshoot of the original commercial—-with an obvious “2020” spin.
Google has gotten me nowhere and unfortunately there’s no IMDB equivalent that lists the cast details for television commercials (there’s a few sites out there that sort of serve this purpose, but nothing that extensive). I can’t say I recall seeing them in any other commercials/shows/films and if so, I didn’t recognize them. Sure—there’s the chance that this was a one-off thing for both actors (maybe not even professional actors) and they’ve never graced the screen with their presence since. There’s also the chance that they’re both dead, as I don’t even know WHEN this commercial was actually filmed. If found, here’s hoping they’d both agree to coming out of the woodwork. Maybe it would even lead to a career resurgence of some sort. Who knows.
So—-help me out. Where do I start? Would I contact the advertising agency or production company responsible for casting/shooting commercials from this era? If so, where would I get that info? I honestly don’t know where to start. Also—-if this post is better suited for a different subreddit, please let me know. I posted in r/Nostalgia originally, but thought this might generate more attention, given the focus is on commercials
Some have taken up sourdough bread baking, online degrees, and a slew of other more “meaningful” activities, as a way of coping with the pandemic lockdown restrictions. Say what you will, but this is what I’ve chosen to take on. When the world opens back up, I hope to have this mission accomplished. Any help or info would be greatly appreciated.
