Yes, the man is gone...Mr Whipple...that weird old man with the strange fetish who was an icon of daytime television during the 1970's and 1980's. By today's standards, the old Charmin commercials were pretty weird...ok...they were weird when they first came out too. But, the television commercials of that era had a special something that the commercials of today are sorely lacking. So, in honor of the late Mr. Whipple here are a few classic commercials in remembrance.
