“Honey, hands come up soft / just like roses / try Vel and you’ll see!”
And get a load of this!: Carol Channing and the cast of “Hogan’s Heros” for Jell-O, the light dessert with fresh-fruit taste.

February 15, 2008 at 14:06What wets the appetite more for Jell-O than a Nazi Germany POW camp?
RcktMan says:
February 15, 2008 at 18:23These are both the craziest commercials ever. The Merm pushing dish liquid. And what is with the rose in the sink of water? Too crazy. But Carol Channing on the set of Hogan’s Heroes? That’s crazy enough… and then the plugs for Jell-O and Dream Whip? It’s just too much!

February 15, 2008 at 12:27Did I just have an acid flashback or did that really exist? Carol Channing eating Jello on Hogan’s Heros? Okay, I’m never telling anyone about this for fear they’ll put me away. I nearly escaped the last time they tried to put me away. They tried to tell me I wasn’t a dog. Imagine that!
