Can't believe 2001 is nostalgic now

[@nouseforaname5378]

It’s tripping me out

[@mrawesome3915]

It's not, its too recent. I feel the last three decades have felt like the same one. Until 2000 every decade had a unique feel to it.

[@dashby07]

@@mrawesome39152000’s definitely have a unique feel. It’s before smart phones and social media really took over. Lots of technology we now consider ancient was still commonplace, like pay phones. There was still an innocence remaining from the 90’s, at least until 9/11 happened.

[@poetrich]

@@mrawesome3915 agreed. each decade of the 20th C had its own sound, look & attitude. all the way into the early 2000s. the 1950s sure looked & sounded different than the 1960s etc etc. but then around 2005-08 fashions in sound, sense, design, look & attitude have remained very similar. of course, there has been some small details that changed, such as the mullet hair style coming back into vogue, but those are minute changes & if you watch a movie circa 2008 up to this year you will be hard pressed to know what year it is in the film. except for technology, e.g. the use of smart phones, which date a movie, but by the way the characters dress & the music on the soundtrack all the years become a blur.

[@poetrich]

@@dashby07 sorry for not reading your reply before i replied to mrawesome3915 because i agree with you too. the early 2000s certainly had its own look & feel etc etc. which was really an extension of the giddy tech optimism of the 1990s. but post 9/11 everything changed. pop culture changed. & the previous century's uniqueness faded away. one can argue that the 20th C ended on 9/11 & the 21 C began somewhere in 2005 or so. these 2001 commercials are an artifact of the end of the old world. & a transition to whatever we are still becoming.

[@CommodoreFan64]

It's kind of insane to realize this was 22 years ago now, and how much the world has changed, like Walmart starting to phase out physical media sales, all the allergy meds shown being OTC now, no more minute plans for the vast majority of cell phone services, how cheap they have gotten, and how fast the data speed have gotten to the point many people like myself now use a cell connection for their home internet service. Thanks for another banger set Dave. 👍

[@jrebecca0195]

That was so very 2001! 😂❤

[@Cyberrat629]

What a difference Pre and post 9-11 commercials, media, and life in general is. Really feels like an “innocence lost” moment.

[@nickm5419]

whats 911?

[@Cyberrat629]

@@nickm5419 September 11, 2001. The terrorist attacks on the US. There was a huge and distinct change in media after it that continues today.

[@poetrich]

i was just going to comment about that very thing. tho these commercials sure tried to keep an upbeat & chipper tone there seemed to be a kind of studied cheerfulness to them. the only commercial that was pre-911, i think, was the ConAir add which had the bright colors, the jump-cut editing, & that giddy tone of a future that will be grand. we really did lose our innocence on 9/11, & after too. it was the end of the old world, & the start of our new one.

[@Kane6676]

Ya that was the plan

[@cdjxman]

@@nickm5419911 is who you call in an emergency. 9-11 is when the US government did an inside job to convince the world that terrorism was the reason the twin towers fell

[@400KrispyKremes]

If George Costanza didn't want me eating McDonald's he shouldn't have made all those McDLT commercials, although maybe he was upset they discontinued it?

[@UrbanNoizeMusic]

😂😂😂😂

[@GLeibniz1716]

Early 2000s are so overlooked because they are a transition period thanks dave be safe!

[@E-LowTay]

I love this one!!! This one hits home! Thanks Dave! 🌽

[@MrWolfSnack]

The wavy signal pattern from the bad cable signal itself is nostalgic.

[@melvinshine9841]

2001 would've been my freshman year of high school. Good grief, I'm old. Holy shit, I *loved* the Discovery Channel store. Speaking of the Discovery Channel networks, I can't remember if the The Learning Channel had begun it's sad devolution into reality schlock, yet. For as long as I can remember, Yoplait has been marketed as a "girl" thing and I've never understood why. It's funny how the more normal stuff on Lifetime became the Oxygen channel, while Lifetime went and made a separate "movies about stalkers" channel. Seriously, that's all the Lifetime Movie Network is.

[@Rain006]

01 was also my freshman year. Crazy how we start a new school and then boom we're at war 9/11 hits

[@Victor-ul4qq]

Dave has done it again 📼🔥Thank you! 👏🙌

[@jakebluethunder]

That was great!👍🏼 Man that 1/2 hour really flew by!🕰 Thanks Dave!

[@camaro69blk]

Love what you're doing here. Never stop!! :)

[@MenardsManiac-tg5nz]

Takes me back to my coveted childhood!

[@tristanwalls6266]

Looks like a cd. Smells like a cd. But guess what??!! It's a DVD. Boom! Son! In your face! B boy pose

[@poetrich]

another great set, Dave! i am struck by the change in tone of these, i'm guessing, ads are post-9/11 commercials vs. the Y2K adverts. the latter had manic editing, hyper cool set designs, goofy humor & a thumping electronica beat. which all was featured to say that in the 21st C technology will guide is into a super fun & cool near future. but the former, these post-9/11 ads, are more subdued, restrained, all the while maintaining a coded cheerfulness. man! has the world changed. & these commercials are a proof of those changes. at any rate, thanks Dave for doing the good work you do! these ads are artifacts of culture as well as retro emblems of my long-faded youth!

[@HoLeeFuk317]

There is just something odd about watching this knowing its on the verge of 911. I cant really put the feeling into words.

[@zerosoma33]

2:20 - for the love of nostalgia bomb!!! my childhood!!!

[@walylama1672]

You can definitely feel the changing tide. It almost like we all subconsciously agreed get way busier and have less time for each other in 2001. Even the products people use at home feature people on the go and in a hurry.

[@catrinag.9262]

Wow there were some good made for TV movies there that I'm gonna have to look up here on KZbin. Just Ask My Kids, Sleeping with the Devil and My Life with Judy Garland. Poor Shannen Dougherty has been fighting breast cancer I believe for a really long time now. Great ads as always Dave!!!

[@WJBSnetworks]

My best times

[@UrbanNoizeMusic]

2000s always reminds me of my high school/teen years, because I was still in school at the time. And TheWB was the network I obsessed over 😂. Until it fused with UPN to become CW. Time flies. Then 911 would happen while I was going from one class to another.

[@ItsDomeno]

Omg 😳 🔥

[@yvonnespringstead3740]

Your dad is awesome! Loved your stories of your childhood home.

[@finsfish]

9.99 for a bucket of chicken!!! 25 bucks now!

[@charliejoson9145]

Finally! I had been clicking on Daves Archives to see if there is a new upload haha. And I was really reminiscing about the year 2000's (even if I don't remember 2001 - 2007...it was a blur to me as a 5th grader). Thank you!

[@pablovillegas6606]

Y2K nostalgic already no way 😮 WOW

[@mattarnett4690]

Vapor Dave in the year 2000 ✌️📼🧈

[@DavesArchives]

😆😆

[@taureanmay1411]

​@@DavesArchives😆😆😆😆😆😆good 💯😊 Dave.

[@Apocalypse_Ninja]

I'm looking for a particular late 90's commercial. It's a cereal commercia, and it starts with "can't get you out of my head!" Haven't seen it since I was a teen. 😢

[@Kane6676]

Thanks Dave !!

[@UrbanNoizeMusic]

Dave and Jason Alexander commercials are like peanut butter and jelly 😂

[@tiffanygrever8092]

It was this year I was expecting my first son he is 21 now and in the Marines my has time flown bye.

[@djdarden689]

I miss being a kid

We had had to call Stanley steamer when pippap clogged the commode 😢

[@tyneishalewis9917]

What a coincidence/timing! I had been thinking about '00s lately and dug out some of my old stuff like my Nintendo DS. Thanks as always for posting these and looking forward to more!

[@alphamike87]

Great video brother, commercials suck now

[@mrawesome3915]

No offense, but 2001 is not retro

[@jrebecca0195]

Yes it is!

[@CommodoreFan64]

It might not feel retro to those of us born in the 70's, & 80's, but it is indeed retro as 2001 is almost 23 years ago, and is just as retro as the 80's where in the early 00's when VH1 did the I love the 80's series of shows.

[@jrebecca0195]

​@@CommodoreFan64today I heard the U2 song Beautiful Day on the oldies station - it's from 2001! 😂

[@HoLeeFuk317]

The denial is real

[@smol-one]

You're old. Kids born in '01 can drink. It's fine.

[@nickm5419]

is that supposed to be a Xenomorph in the bugles commercial?

[@Spawn3X5]

Its called parody
