Mason Reese. Post Raisin Brand Commercial.
I just have the funny feeling that when the ad execs cast Mason Reese in this 1975 Post Raisin Bran commercial they knew he was kind of goofy.
They must have. Probably some kind of cruel inside joke.
Stupid, cocky mid 70's ad execs.

Oh no!!! You played the dreaded Mason Reese card! Worse than that whole 2012 Mayan calander thing.
Westchesterdead - it is kind of like torture to watch it isn't it?
And one more thing. Why didn't someone have him blow his nose?
Listen to that nasal voice.
I never really thought of it, but you're right. Something a little "off" about that kid. Wonder where he is now.
He now owns restaurants in NYC.
And he doesn't serve a smorgasbord, go figure.
GAH! That was a face from the past that should have stayed there. WHAT THE FUCK!
I strongly recommend you NOT check out his Wikipedia entry like I did... he did not get better with age!
Gage, your comment came too little too late. I surfed over there, too. NOT a good idea.
I think he was trying to ride the coattails of Danny Bonaduce.
holy shit does mason reese always make me laugh...
what the fuck, was that a kid, a dwarf playing a kid or a primordial dwarf????
Thanks for warning me not to go to Wikipedia but of course I couldn't help myself.
any closer to knowing that the hell that weird thing in your video is...is he even real????? I shall be having nightmares tonight!
How about a stronger warning, like DO NOT WIKEPEDIA THIS GUY UNLESS YOU WANT YOUR EYEBALLS SINGED!!
Omg, seriously, I almost fell out of my chair. Nothing can prepare you for that.
Diane - Wikipedia should have a warning like, "OK..now are you sitting down? Are you SURE you want to see this?..
shouldn't admit this but I remember that kid and those commercials.
Holy cow. Now I really feel old!
Crap!
Fun stuff!

Didn't he play the head Oompa Loompa in Willie Wonka?
Holy hell.
I'm going to Wikipedia.
Jennifer - we are all getting old aren't we?
Animatronics have come on a lot since the days of Jim henson, haven't they?
The Jules - they have indeed.
