In the history of sitcoms, there were decades of far better ones than GG, from I Love Lucy to Leave It to Beaver to Bewitched to MASH to Cheers to Seinfeld (50s to 90s), just to name a few.

For those unaware the Pillsbury Bundt commercial makes sense calling it a Bundt brand cake as Bundt pans are a trademark of the Nordic Ware Company of Minnesota. Any Bundt cake pan not made by them is either a fake or licensed from them. Unlike most cake pans Bundts aren't generic and for the most part are still surprisingly made still in the US at same factory they were in the past for generations. Any cake mix can be put into a Bundt cake pan and be called a Bundt cake as the pan it's baked in makes the cake a Bundt not flavor of the cake itself. As for the best mix to use, well that's easy use a Pillsbury mix as the proof is in the pudding.

In the commercials featuring kids, it is interesting to see how kids were dressed in the 80s versus today. Basic sweatshirts and sweatpants in the 80s. Nowadays kids are dressed in expensive designer clothing that they will outgrow in a few months just to make them look like celebrities.
