The Europeans tend to do ads better I feel. Their television rules to live by are not as tight. This reminds me very much of Monty Python:



Figure I've atoned for the Mikey dup.

Ok, taking a risk here because it 'might' not be an actual commercial.
It is, however, the original classic. There are a few copies in the sidebar, and the comment section is pretty comical as well.
The original "Turbo Encabulator"

I thought she was the Wicked Witch of the West.

You are correct. Plus the alliteration works better.

I thought she was the Wicked Witch of the West.

The Wicked Witch of the East was believed to be more powerful than the Good Witch of the North, but not as powerful as Glinda, the Good Witch of the South. She also appeared to be more powerful than Mombi, the Wicked Witch of the North, as the Good Witch of the North was able to defeat Mombi, but was powerless to overthrow the witch of the east and free the Munchkins.

She was not in any way related to the Wicked Witch of the West (as is made out to be in several adaptions) but was in league together with her, the Wicked Witch of the North, and the Wicked Witch of the South to conquer and divide Oz among themselves in four sections as recounted in Baum's fourth Oz book, Dorothy and the Wizard in Oz (1908). After the fall of Pastoria, the last mortal King of Oz, the old witch conquered the eastern section of Oz and held the native Munchkins in her bondage for a number of decades.

Did the Wicked Witch of the West in The Wizard of Oz have a name? Why is the Wicked Witch of the West evil?

These series of events all reveal the inherent evil and true wickedness of the Witch who craves nothing but power. Greed is her primary motivation. The Witch is unsuccessful at stopping Dorothy from reaching the Wizard, but in a twist of fate the Wizard charges Dorothy with disposing of
