We all know that Ryan Reynolds (and his writers) have some pretty great ideas when it comes to comedy. This ultimate throwback video, however, kinda tops them all. They recreated iconic 80s commercials for “Live Before a Studio Audience,” and the results are hilariously awesome.
You’ll recognize some folks in the video; Bob Vila of “This Old House,” Kool-Aid Man, and Alfonso Ribeiro!
Check out Maximum 80s, and make sure to watch “Live Before a Studio Audience” on Hulu!

Mary Anne Butler
Mary Anne Butler (Mab) has been part of the fast-paced world of journalism since she was 15, getting her start in album reviews and live concert coverage for a nationally published (print) music magazine. She eventually transitioned to online media, writing for such sites as UGO/IGN, ComicsOnline, Geek Magazine, Ace of Geeks, Aggressive Comix (where she is still Editor-in-Chief), Bleeding Cool (where she was News Editor), and now Nerdbot as Editor-In-Chief. Over the past 10 years, she’s built a reputation at conventions across the globe as a cosplayer (occasionally), photographer (constantly), panelist and moderator (mostly), and reporter (always). Interviews, reviews, observations, breaking news, and objective reporting are the name of the game for the founder of Harkonnen Knife Fight, a Dune-themed band with an international presence. Though she be but little, she is fierce.
