[@spindleclown]

There was a series of ads for Jello's "Temptations" line that were... very distasteful and cruel. They involved parents threatening their children with various unpleasant fates if they were to ever take one of their Jello Temptations. The worst one involving a mother reciting a rhyme that ended with "...she took one of mommy's Jello Temptations... now she's shoveling coal." accompanied by the visual of a scared, dirty little girl in a dark coal mine, and a smug "sweet dreams!" by the mother. I saw it several times on tv and was jarred by it. I'm aware there was another involving a child in a pit of snakes. There are complaints online about the ads... but the ads themselves have been completely wiped from the internet, save for the tamest of them all, "Chocobeast", which involves parents spooking their kids with a campfire story.

[@dragontamershadria3058]

[@karaoconnoraliasraidra]

I remember those disgusting things too. I have a friend who was abused by a parent, so that gave me another reason to hate them. My whole family hated those commercials. I wrote a letter (not a nasty, hateful one, just a letter) expressing my disapproval and the company sent me back a nice letter saying they didn't mean any disrespect. I guess enough people expressed disapproval since they stopped the ad campaign and don't have the commercials online. What was even the point of that campaign? "Hey, you can be selfish with the power of Jell-O"? To give credit where it's due, Jell-O had a great commercial sometime later in which this boy pictured himself having as rough a day as his Dad had had at the office (getting the car stuck in traffic, having the boss not care about his project) and gave him his pudding out of sympathy. I sent a nice letter because I enjoyed it and got a nice response back.

There should be a list of lost radio advertisement because I have a fond memory of Taco Bell commercial that I heard back in middle school in 2007.

I'll periodically think about that commercial for seemingly no reason, and my brain has mostly resolved that it made a minor impact on life and no one else's, so it just feels weird seeing even a clip of it turn up here.

True story: While working for the media center department of a major state university library, I spent days reviewing and indexing 8mm film compilations of old TV advertisements.

It starts by saying"All over America, people are being paid to say how much they loved 'Hot Shots" (1991). They then show a boy saying it wasn't very good. They put money, money in his hand, he smiles and says "It was great!" this is followed by a couple with a goat on a leash, saying they liked it so much, they brought their kid.

It was found in like September of last year, and only the cover has been found. The actual contents of the disc remain lost to this day. Originally, A Bug’s Life was the first, but the one for it was released about a year or so later, so Bionicle pushed it back to second place. B:MoL has a regular Disney DVD release in Poland as well, but every other release is just Miramax instead of being primarily Disney through the Disney DVD branding, and the heavily obscure Disney DVD releases have Miramax pushed back to a secondary label instead.

Every time I hear you say ''Oh Hi There'', I always imagine you walking out of the bathroom with a bathrobe on, brushing your teeth while staring at the camera Ferris Bueller style.

Lost Stores: I nominate the rental chain “Video Watch” it was in at least Michigan if not other places too. Another one would be “Curtis Mathis” (probably spelled wrong). It was a video/audio equipment store in the 80’s.

Ive gone to multiple lost media discords and asked about a terrifying lost commercial for Geico but everyone ignores it. So ill try here. Does anyone remember a Thanksgiving commercial around the early 2000s where a family is having a large dinner and all the food gets up an walks away? Then at the end a man reaches for the turkey and it stands up, kicks him in the face and he turns plastic with a creepy big smile on his face?

[@filipfilip1507]

No sadly but I recommend searching for some turkey/meat ads

There's a TV spot for the forgotten 2001 film "Double Take" that I've been trying to find online for years. It's back during that weird period where when a studio knew a film was a piece of crap, they wouldn't actually show any of it in a TV spot, kind of like the Bushwacked TV spots. Anyway, it has these weird paper cut out stop motion versions of Eddie Griffin and Orlando Jones. Every time the film's name was said, it was a loud "Duh-Duh-DOUBLE TAKE!!!" and it featured the line "I'm gonna see it. Gonna see it anyway I can. Gonna see Duh-Duh-DOUBLE TAKE!!!" I used to make fun of that commercial every time it was on, so I remember it vividly.

There was an well made ad type thing on MTV back in 2007ish. There were 2 guys sitting on the park bench looking at people and women passing by. They commented something on their appearance and they always said "Gotta get their numbaz" but they never made an attempt to contact anybody and that was the end of the clip. It was so bizarre, but fit in well with MTV at the time. It was played many times so I was confused when I could not find the clip anywhere...

[@qtipman6485]

dude i have got to say this channel is amazing and i hope you get to be one of the greats in the lost media community.

[@bzboy21]

In 2009, Envirofone, a UK phone service company, made an advert called "Vox-Pop" which a part of it, which featured a middle-aged man on a yellow background saying "wonga", this became a meme, so in 2010 - 2012, Envirofone made him the unofficial mascot, they even made a youtube channel "MrWongaMan", where all the adverts were uploaded to but after the campaign, they deleted the youtube channel which was filled with adverts for the campaign, some of these adverts have been found and can be viewed on KZbin, including a banned advert for the campaign but there's still some of them which are still lost media.

[@starryknight5555]

Just making a comment to help this channel out in the algorithm. I love listening to lost media channels and this one is my favorite.

[@Yunossbm]

you should low-key do a part two this was a very entertaining watch

[@OfficialCyaned]

Seeing this video actually reminded me of two videos that somewhat fit in the commercial category but I can't seem to find them; one was a tribute? video that showed a compilation of Nickelodeon shows with the song Clocks by Coldplay playing in the background. It was probably fake or an old fan KZbin video but somehow I remembered that. The second was a Poptarts parody commercial where the crazy dude guy shoots down Poptarts with a harpoon and one of them is fed up. When the Poptart asks why he's doing this, the guy says "It's crazy good" so he responds with "Well you're crazy dead!" and shoots him with a gun. They were old deleted videos but somehow I managed to remember them.

[@ryanparrott6866]

Really surprising to hear about that esurance commercial being lost. I distinctly remember seeing it on several channels as a kid, specifically Cartoon Network or Nick. It always struck me as odd because it was a cartoon, so I thought it would be advertising at kids. The first time I thought it was advertising a show I hadn't heard of, not insurance for adults. I'd love to see those commercials again, though.

[@coinsilver3]

What made easy carry failed was the inflated price. I have seen the Pitch Men episode of it where the inventer was complaining about the suggested price.

[@qxtjzz]

love your videos

[@connorbeith3232]

Speaking of Subway, they apparently made kids toys with Cartoon Network characters back in 2002 (even stuff like Sheep in the Big City and Time Squad) that have lost ads as well.

[@avery8767]

I’m sure that this probably isn’t lost, but there’s a McDonald’s commercial that I remember but can’t seem to find anywhere. It was for Happy meals specifically, and focused on a little boy who was eating at McDonald’s, I believe with his mom or grandma. It goes into a daydream sort of sequence, as the boy is playing with his chicken nuggets. He imagines that they’re pirates, and one of them was required to “walk the plank”. When this happened, it goes back to normal as the boy dunks his chicken nugget into some dipping sauce. The slogan “McDonald’s, where it’s okay to play with your food” (or something similar to this) was said in a voiceover towards the end. Probably aired sometime around the mid 2000s-early 2010s, as I remember seeing it when I was a kid and mimicking it with my cousin. The chicken nuggets could have easily been something like fries/apple slices as well, but I know that it was definitely one of the 3. Kind of an odd commercial to describe, but if that rings a bell for anybody, let me know!

[@burmy1774]

here in Brazil back in 2005 there also was an ad from Volkswagen featuring The Incredibles, but I can't find anymore footage of it online, just people also looking for it.

[@oscarotoole1163]

The Subway Commercial has been Found. It was on Instagram The Entire Time and we didn’t even realise

[@Darceyab]

In ireland and maybe the uk theres an ad for promoting dairy products for kids and the jingle is "them bones them bones need calcium" and even tho the ad is easy to find everyone around my age remembers a completely animated version of a bird in a cave singing it but me and my friends cannot find it anywhere, my older brother says I might be mixing it up with another yoghurt ad but everyone I know around my age remembers there being another version

[@mrmook3001]

been looking for a commercial for years that i'd never been able to find. i believe it was for Campells or Chef Boyardee's meatball soup or spaghetti. it involves a giant meatball chasing a kid if i remember correctly against a red background. somewhat reminiscent of Raiders of the lost ark. it aired sometime around 2003-2006 in the US. i've looked and looked and never been able to find it.

[@GrizzlyAdams94]

This ad isn't lost as far as I know, I've just forgotten what it was advertising and it's been bugging me for months. It was an ad for a sauce, I think some kind of teriyaki or BBQ sauce and it had King Henry the 8th singing this really catchy jingle. Ring any bells?

[@mintiistrqwberri5483]

No but interesting

[@filipfilip1507]

No but maybe cramptons carpets since the jingle is catchy

[@EratoTiaTuatha]

Not really related to ads but there's something I've been trying to locate for over a decade that I hope you could help me with. Namely, the second and third seasons of the (original, circa 1993) Biker Mice From Mars cartoon. Only the first season has been released on DVD (13 out of 65 episodes) and there's terrible quality videos of three more season 2 episodes available on youtube. The only place that received a DVD release of the whole series is Finland and those lack the iconic original dub, obviously. Some amount of episodes beyond the first season were released on VHS at the time but none have been digitized. Hopes were high the full second and third season would see a re-release during the 2006 revival but no such thing happened, leaving most of the show essentially lost *despite* the fact that it still airs occasionally. Also, the claim of "no blood is shown" on the series' wikipedia page is only partly true, as in fact blood was present in the first airing of some episodes and was later removed, and some episodes had their runtime noticeably shortened by censorship past the initial release. The show shaped mine and many other people's childhoods, and it is a tragedy to see most of it lost to obscurity.

[@justaspectator9762]

"Super Mario Bros science commerical" I know this was for super mario bros u. I saw It one day in 2012/2013 and it was about scientists not being able to find the secret of "why is super mario bros u so good" or smth. I barely remember. I just can't find any of the commerical online. Odd if it's lost but it might be. If someone can recognize the ad please tell me.

Did you look through Nintendo’s KZbin channel for it?

Here's a list commercial...Hershey's Rally Candy Bar. The commercial featured a king attached to some kind of device that measured some element (don't ask, I can't remember which ones). When he tries the Rally bar, the machine goes haywire, accompanied by a 30 second edit of I SAY, I SAY, I SAY by David Lindup for APM music. My deep dive search has come up zero. I remember liking how the machine lit up, and then started flashing like mad.

[@farmingsim9813]

One can hope that someone has lost Billy Mays commercials in their old vhs recordings.

[@dtxspeaks268]

VHS if it was recorded before 2005. If it was 2005 to 2009, then I'd be cable DVR.
