Synopsis
A reel of Folgers coffee commercials, most built on one formula: a young suburban wife's coffee disappoints her husband, an outside mentor such as Mrs. Olson or a friendly grocer recommends Folgers, and harmony returns. Spots include "Mrs. Olson Hushes a Husband" and "Crisis at Mamma's Boarding House."

I could watch Folgers Coffee commercials all day. These were great. The husbands here are all sexist pigs. The women here are idiots. Mrs. Olsen seems to never be broke because she's always lugging around free cans of coffee to give to all her neighbors, who never can make good coffee. The Supermarket clerk guy has ventilation problems because of the smoking coffee display, and Mr. Goodcoffee wonders where it all went wrong. A MUST SEE on this site!
