80's Commercials Vol. 202

[@Zanaaa50]

We had that Whirlpool dishwasher back then!

[@80zdude4]

What a wonderful trip back in time. Thanks for the upload. :) By the way, the Garfield Halloween special should return to TV. I haven't seen it in years.

[@markhernandez5678]

It is rather nostalgic and sad how AIDS made the eighties so scary at that time, if any one remembers.

[@HamptonRoadsTVFan]

+DanZero77 To answer the question about the Garfield specials, the only time I can recall any being aired recently was catching the Garfield's Christmas special on ABC Family around 2009.

[@ratuse]

That lady in the Cheese ad needs ta take it down a notch.

[@SleazeThrobb12345]

Long John Slivers that was the best place in town when i was a kid!

[@LikaLaruku]

The lady in the Max factor commercial sounds just like Kate Mulgrew. The 80s: When LEGOs was limited by imagination rather than predetermined pieces that only built very specific objects.

[@mikehebert6721]

I think that lady is Jaclyn Smith. You're right though, she sounds like Kate Mulgrew.

[@mrcrushin]

I don't know why, but that Apple Cinnamon Squares commercial really speaks to me. Gotta be the side ponytail.

[@UmbrellaAl]

Man, that Cherry Coke ad reminds me a lot of the SNL '86 season opening credits.

[@timothysprengeler4071]

0:00--I was expecting the "Cheese, glorious cheese" jingle (based on "Food, Glorious Food" from the musical Oliver), but I liked this one just as much. 0:30--Back when Long John Silver's used "Seafood Shoppe" as part of its branding. 1:50--I miss seeing the Charlie Brown specials on over-the-air TV! Wish they'd show the Garfield ones again too. 1:58 and 2:55--Wow; KELO! I used to watch that station when visiting my grandparents in southwest Minnesota (they lived in the Sioux Falls TV market area). The call letters are pronounced to rhyme with "yellow." 4:22--One of many great jingles that Coca-Cola has used through the years, and I had pretty much forgotten about that one. 4:51--I am guessing that is the real Orville Redenbacher? I think he was still living back then. 5:52--You can get so many specialty Lego kits nowadays, but do they still make the "Universal Building Set" of my youth? 6:30--What ever happened to those Tyson chicken entrees? 7:01--Ditto for Apple Cinnamon Squares. Wish they'd bring those back. The jingle is pretty darn catchy, too. 7:32--One of many great jingles that Wrigley's has used through the years. 8:03--I loved that Fresno miniseries! It was a spoof of shows like Dallas and Dynasty, which were popular back then.

[@georgikolaroff5574]

6:35 - That's a rude-ass waiter!

[@jwgreek8606]

Yes Mike, they did use big shopping bags back then. Lol

[@mysticx0]

the guy at 2:59 was on family ties, he was mallorys boyfriend. his name is Scott Valentine....google his pics sometime and you will see clearly that mel gibson stole this guys whole look in Lethal Weapon lol. my mom had a huge crush on him in the 80's. (yeah im old lol...)

[@MrBoyYankee]

My Demon Lover and DeadTime Stories Scott Valentine's two I remember.

[@biped19]

You know what you don't see these days on the idiot box? A good douche commercial. I miss that.

[@aadams1006]

It seems that commercials from around 1986 are the ones I remember most vividly. It must be because of the age I was then.

[@ttkjv16112011]

At 7:53 , the double mint girls look a lot like Princess Diana back then

[@rsdaddy141]

Chhhheeeeessseee! Scrumptious!

[@cyrenafame]

The Cherry Coke ad looks exactly the same as the opening credits to Saturday Night Live around this time period. I wonder if the same agency had a role in both.

[@mroy88]

i wanna go back to 1986 :(

[@kettoshii]

5:51 - Can you even say that on tv anymore? XD

[@lakebay972]

percussive sting at 2:25

[@DanZero77]

Since the Peanuts specials moved from CBS to ABC, I don't think the Garfield shows went there either. That Cheese ad -- Wuh? Enough station IDs there KELO-TV? He must have went to the Wendy's at the MALL! Hershey's Kisses kid got beat up shortly after the ad finished. Interesting note about "The Wizard" -- After finding out the series was going to be canceled in its first season, the producers tried starting a letter-writing campaign to its viewers keep the show going. Sadly, it failed.

[@80sEric]

I am all about 80's music, movies and TV and I have never heard of the series "Kay O' Brien" until now. Since these ads aired in October, it must have been part of CBS' 86-87 new fall lineup. Something tells me "Kay-O" got KO'D before the end of '86.

[@blugreen123]

@PatrioticFront I live in northern In., only about 2 1/2-3 hrs. f/ Chicago, and there are several around here

[@Zanaaa50]

I

[@elineff3895]

I always thought the Kellogg's Apple Cinnamon Squares were good

[@madgang201]

That was a weird "cheese" commercial. By the way, what was "The Wizard" because I know it's not the one I'm thinking of.

[@blugreen123]

Regional cheese?!?!?! WOW!!!!!! was this b/f Jaclyn Smith started designing for KMart? blue eyeshadow. So 80's I LOVE Garfield's Halloween. I have it on DVD. Hershey's Kisses kid needs a child psychologist the phrase "post-menstrual douche" was uttered on network TV?! the voiceover for the Lego ad is the same as the one for Smuckers, I think "consummation...and consternation" those apple cinnamon squares look pretty good

[@TheOldstufffan]

Dairy marketing on TV! We used to have good educational PSA type adds.

[@Zanaaa50]

I LIKE the kid in the Hershey's Kisses commercial they need to use REALISTIC kids in commercials today...That kid seemed like a more unique type and less "cool" cookie cutter type of kid.

[@80sCommercialVault]

@madgang201 The Wizard was a show about an inventor/toymaker (Who is also a midget) getting into wacky adventures. It lasted for just under a season. I'll be posting more commercial breaks taken from this show for the next 10 volumes.

[@MrBoyYankee]

Wasn't that David Rappaport.

[@MrBoyYankee]

Lynn Whitfield still fine AF.
