That lady ran out of her wedding for a wine cooler. Somebody call Alcoholics Anonymous

[@HoustonMediaHD]

Glad this channel exist as well. Most commercials nowadays are unfunny, lame, and unacceptable. 80's and 90's commercials are funny, exciting, and even epic.

[@kimmykun]

"And Saffola tastes... better." Well, I'm convinced.

[@Jnthncrrll]

The voiceover announcer for Kraft Rancher's Choice Creamy Dressing commercial, is voiced by the late Mel Blanc, who played Bugs Bunny, Daffy Duck, Porky Pig, Sylvester the Cat, Tweety Bird and more.

[@PlaidRocker32]

I’m so thankful for this channel.

No argument, my friend👍

[@rizinggodfist3049]

Mr. "80'sCommercialVault" steadily continues to wow me/us with his brilliance with editing & ability to teleport us back in his very well constructed time machine/capsules👍...take another bow👏👏👏

[@misdirections]

Oh yes.. KTVU again. Love it. I'm completely transported in time!

[@vicious-pi3rd]

9. I remember when this restaurant only serve taco. Now, you see all this new crap that they have! 14. I got the thirsties but not for the 20s! 21. Interesting sponsor for a commercial for PSA! 30. If I use this will I be transported on a sailboat too!? 31. I reckon this got me emotional!

[@Zanaaa50]

It isn't Brian Dennehy someone commented the actor's name already. His name is Peter Jason

[@randylawson3619]

The guy in the Safeway commercial is Peter Jason. He was in some of John Carpenter's movies along with a bunch of other stuff.

[@80sCommercialVault]

Yeah, I'm pretty sure I was recognizing him from "They Live".

[@chrislang9442]

Randy Lawson Good eye!

[@kayandaeddings4803]

Hi, I hope you have some more of those old KTVU Commercials since I grew up here in the San Francisco bay area. These brought back lots of memories when I was just a kid growing up in 86. Well, I still live here in the San Francisco bay area. These were the days before it turned into Fox in 88. Thanks for taking us all down memory lane with your videos.

[@80sCommercialVault]

The recording here was from one of about 50 tapes that were generously donated to me...nearly all of them were recorded in the SF Bay Area, and a majority of them were recorded from KTVU. I will be posting the contents of these tapes for the next few months...it might even take a year to post all of it!

[@kayandaeddings4803]

80sCommercialVault that’s awesome. I really don’t care how long it takes. I just love your commercial videos. I have been subscribed to your channel for the past few years. I have even seen your videos from other states from other channels such as CBS, ABC, and Fox and other channels for mother states. Even some of the cable channels like the USA network, TBS, and TNT Just to name a few. Once again, thank you so much.

[@yusakug]

7:18 - Such an odd and strangely sinister laugh to end an airline commercial on...

[@chrislang9442]

yusakug it’s because they secretly buy your soul if you go on that flight.

[@danielshimoda9246]

@@chrislang9442 they really did haha.

[@Zanaaa50]

@15:35 Michelle Lee star of the long running CBS primetime drama "Knots Landing" (one of the longest running one hour network dramas after "Bonanza" and "Gunsmoke")

[@Lovejazz01]

Wow , black lacquer furniture , so hot, so L.A. , so 80’s !

[@TTrigg]

Taco Bell-nowadays "seasoned ground beef" isnt whats being used People Express-Book a flight..pay with your soul!

[@jordantheconjurer]

6:05 is soo Nostalgic

[@BillSeipel]

@4:57 At first, I thought the little girl was...Britney Spears. But Spears would've only been 5 or 6 at the time this aired. But this girl LOOKS familiar.

[@YodaPagoda]

PG&E...before Enron's "Death Star" scheme. I'm not sure, but I think Taco Bell still hasn't won the promised "Franchise Wars." "Saffola tastes...better" still stuck in my head after 33 years. 33 years later, M*A*S*H still airs on MeTV at 7 and 7:30 PM. Wow, that Stevie Wonder Drunk Driving PSA really stuck in my head all these years. You've got to wonder what that 15 month old baby (now probably 33 years old) is doing now, minus a mother? $399 to Europe...how times have changed! That being said, international travel is a lot nicer with movies and video games on the little seatback screens. MJB...I remember getting some of this coffee when I moved out of my mom's house, and realizing I shouldn't have, because it was weak and repulsive coffee. AirCal was cheap air travel before it was cool.

[@wildsmiley]

Poor Stevie Wonder in the ‘80s How the mighty have fallen.

[@DanZero77]

Peoplexpress - a cheap trip to New York is what they WANT you to think. Hmhmhmhmhm.
