What scene in TAGS came closest to breaking the proverbial "fourth wall?" Nearly all of the "cast commercials" ended with someone, usually Andy, looking directly into the camera and talking to the audience. Andy would usually sign off with "I appreciate it and good night!" In the well-known Post Grape Nuts commercial where Andy is doing calisthenics while Barney sneaks off to enjoy the cereal, Barney looks into the camera and says "Delicious!" to the audience. There were a few exceptions but the Post/Jell-O/Sanka/Shake and Bake/other General Foods ads just about always broke the fourth wall.
