“We make weekends.”

Since the weekend is fast-approaching, here’s a nice, animated AMF commercial that may give you some recreational ideas. I’m fairly certain the female voice is provided by Judy Graubart of The Electric Company.

The spot aired in January of 1979 and was likely produced in ’78 or earlier.
