@Jane,
Hahaha, those are great aren't they. That "grandmotherly neighbor" was the Mrs. Olsen character who proclaimed Folgers as using beans that are "mountain grown - it's the richest kind" for many years.

The following one is my favorite; no Mrs. Olsen but this time "Papa Eddie". Hubby is outside and throws the coffee into the garden. Wife says "Honey, you'll kill the petunias!"

Seriously though, these commercials were intended to be funny and play on the natural desire of wives to want to please their husbands. At least, 1960's wives wanted to please their husbands.
