If you’ve got a creepy commercial, you’ve got a brand identity

Here is an old TV ad for the Saionitz & Kirk law firm that used to run all day long in between Lincoln Tech and Jhoon Rhee spots.

I recalled it being even creepier — there may have been a longer, more ominous version.

    WFY, I remember seeing this "commercial" while watching Divorce Court and All In The Family. They also had one that played the music from Field Of Dreams? FREDTERP

    Hmm, I can’t watch clips at work. Tagged to watch later, but boy do I remember that slogan.

    I seem to remember an ad featuring an eerily lit phone booth (perhaps lit by crunched-up headlights?) with smoke or steam or something….was that a Saiontz ad? It played during late-night (usually un-sober) viewings of shows like "Patty Duke" or "Kate & Allie" or some equally horrific syndication, so I may be mentally creating an ad which never existed…

    "Hello, Saiontz & Kirk? Yes, I’d like to sign up for a free injury."

    a) i love the awesome scooby doo music.

    b) how long has it been since you’ve seen something without an area code in the metro area?!
