It?s time for the Throwback Thursday clip of the week! This week, we have a throwback commercial of Gilbert Gottfried and Brian Orakpo. Gilbert Gottfried is both an actor and comedian that is most notable for his sketches on Saturday Night Live (SNL) and his roles in movies such as Problem Child, Problem Child 2, Aladdin. Beverly Hills Cop II, and Dr. Dolittle. At one point, he was also a regular on the television show Hollywood Squares. In addition, Gilbert has had several voice over roles in cartoons, television, movies, and even video games. The voice of Gilbert Gottfried is truly one of a kind so it?s only right that he come on board to have some fun with Eastern Motors. He was joined by Brian Orakpo who was playing for the Washington Redskins during the time of the shoot. These two had great chemistry on screen and gave the audience the perfect balance of funny and cool. There were nonstop laughs on set even in between filming. The Easterns jingle always allows people to loosen up, have fun, and add their own personal flavor to it.

Over the years, Eastern Motors has been known for their various commercials and collaborations with the players of the Redskins. This particular clip was no different. In this TBT clip, Easterns introduces the now former Washington Redskins players to their audience by giving them each special nicknames. The nicknames were as follows: ?The Transformer? (Antwaan Randel El), ?The Maestro? (Jason Campbell), ?Trouble?(Willis McGahee), ?The Moss Factor ?(Santana Moss), and ?The Chief? (Chief Zee). The commercial shows all of the guys walking up and getting into cars from Eastern Motors. It was great to show that Easterns is a lifestyle and that they have vehicles of all different makes, sizes, and prices to accommodate everyone no matter your financial status. The custom Easterns jerseys worn in this clip by guys are currently framed and hanging in the Easterns Automotive Group corporate office in Sterling, VA. They will forever be a part of the Easterns history. Last year in 2016, Chief Zee passed away so the Easterns decided to post a special message for his fans, friends, and family to let them know how much he was loved, appreciated, and respected by everyone in the Easterns family.
