Nickelodeon Commercials (09/22/1991)

Commercials that aired during a very early Nicktoons block, featuring the premiere airing of the Rugrats episode "Ruthless Tommy / Moose Country" and the first rerun of the Ren & Stimpy episode "Space Madness / The Boy Who Cried Rat!"

Love the virtual reality commercial at the beginning! Incredible to see how far VR has came along since 1991!

[@lowjamz828]

TheVintageTVArchive I agree very cool.

[@julianthatplayz8621]

I think it’s in 64 bits

[@bullmonty764]

Back when the Nicktoons were still brand-new, and when Nick was first experimenting with airing them outside of their Sunday morning block

Who remembers watching Nickelodeon in 1991 and seeing the commercial for the Super Nintendo & Super Mario World?

[@Sandlot1992]

gotta love that Air Pollution PSA with Kermit the Frog that's featured in this! (I could tell this was made in 1987 back when Jim Henson was still alive and long before end up selling the Muppets to the Walt Disney Company 2 years later!)

[@lowjamz828]

Can we bring these times back Please. ☹️

[@cartooncartoons6472]

Yogi bear has been on Nickelodeon until it was removed from its schedule when cartoon network was launched. Even along with Looney tunes.

[@noahscornerofnostalgia5364]

Those Commercials Are Extremely Nostalgic

[@DoctorJazzMan1]

I love the next Bumpers for real.

[@ecoRfan]

Wow this was 28 years ago

[@gabrielvidrio3210]

5:15: Scott Weigner aka Aladdin himself in a Corn Puffs commercial 🧞‍♂️

[@michaelfrazierjr3108]

I met him 4 years ago. No kidding.

[@destinydeja5067]

I had no idea that Vitural Reality was around in the 90s... No wonder its because I was born in 2007!! 8 years after the 90s ended.. #not90skid

[@JT-iw3dp]

I was totally confused when I first saw that headsets were becoming a thing again! A lot of what is considered fashionable recycles every 20 years or so - definitely true in this case!

[@michellerose6302]

Destiny Deja i was born the same year

[@ongakuwotabeta]

Destiny Deja And now, Nintendo Labo has the VR kit.

[@HunterJoyner-q9s]

Holy crap if this is from 1991 then that was around the time Phil Collins and Genesis released We Can’t Dance

[@MilkTheCouch]

I've been looking for a high quality version of the ad at 2:25 for a long time ever since I saw it in an WFLD Afternoon Fun commercial break! Thanks!

[@cnfanldealt3]

Those Camp Nickelodeon kids made use of the Nick jingle. It was given praise in 1993, when they refreshed their bumper package, courtesy of PMcD Design.

[@doncorzone]

3:29 this sounds like doctor mario music

[@DJDoubleCee]

At 8:51 The Day The Earth Threw Up. LOL

[@spindalis79]

Well, it would probably too vulgar to call it "The Day the Earth Had Diarrhea"

[@superspongedude2669]

Could you sell me any of these Nickelodeon tapes? I would really love to own some of these.

[@abelmantor7557]

I think those kids are getting a little too carried away playing that buzzard game (rimshot).

[@Wildcock23]

Cute Sonic commercial

[@jamesbatchelor4772]

These commercials couldn't have been recorded on September 22, 1991 because at 6:19 it says the episode that's airing is Moose Country when this episode didn't air until October 6th.

[@CDCB2]

Wikipedia’s guide is wrong. Amazon lists the episode as airing on September 22.

[@HorrorVet]

Shut up nerd

[@CDCB2]

Hyuk hyuk. Snort. Nahhh, I'm good.

[@CDCB2]

I applaud your originality.

[@sandwichgod692]

@@CDCB2 Are you just gonna let these idiots talk to you like that?

[@ryansilva2621]

LAUNDROMAT sense is my favorite

[@EliteSmorechannel]

i have vivid memories of watching the original nicktoons while eating marshmallow alphabits

[@Anywaythewindblows-gq2hd]

0:23 cool

[@Anaya1791]

Is that steve from full house ?

[@gabrielvidrio3210]

Yes it is ❤ He's also Aladdin himself 🧞‍♂️

[@sandwichgod692]

What was the name of the Doug episode that was playing?

[@john_dillermand]

6:31 Pete & Pete mini-sode

[@CJODell12]

11:04. Top of the Hour bumper with Nickelodeon Studios and the Slime Geyser.

[@averyturner6741]

4:45 Clarence (Cartoon Network Show, 2014) made a reference to that Commerical in the episode "Lil' Buddy" that first aired on (7/20/15)

[@jahziyatheexpediametlifekf7257]

[@dannewnam2701]

Doesn't Stretch Out Sam look like Mario.

[@heidij2839]

My brother-in-law is Ben at 2:55!! OMG 😊

[@itszoe907]

Great was so plain back then,but look at it now!

[@milagromiranda5608]

This was 6 years before I was born

[@nonomanrectoris9412]

Oh nostalgia. Why dis I just watch commercials lol!?

[@MrColeslaw]

Really awesome to see ads this early, thanks! Especially loving the bumpers for the Nicktoons... do you know what time these premieres? I've been told from some it was Saturday mornings, and some have said it was prime time on Saturday... not sure if either are correct, lol.

[@sandwichgod692]

Doug, Rugrats, and The Ren and Stimpy Show premiered on August 11, 1991 on a Sunday morning.

[@joeadams7775]

I remember and love that cabbage patch kids 💏 kids commercial and I'm a 5 yr old boy in the 90s (💓 thrombed and sigh) i was like oh my what a wonderful feeling! I wish I 😘 any girl and I still do as an adult

[@MrRetroCommercials]

15:28 Before Elderbee has her own show "Nick News".

[@birdofprey1266]

Does your dad recording feature the intro for Doug? Rumor has it that when the show premiered it had a longer version of the intro.

[@CDCB2]

Earliest Doug recording I have with the intro intact is from February 1992. No extended footage of Skeeter.

[@birdofprey1266]

Thanks for letting us know!

[@Edward-bm7vw]

15:59 Is that Andy Dick?

[@andrewcolinwilson1]

Could someone please tell me the name of the boy with braces from 3:12 to 3:16 if they know what it is? I just want to know his first name. That's all.

[@CDCB2]

Can’t speak for his real name, but his fake names are usually Phil or Jeffrey. He once assumed the name of Homer, but that got him into legal issues with Fox.

[@HunterJoyner-q9s]

3:16 that’s a new meme outside of Brett Ambler who is the Kazoo Kid

[@MusicMan922]

My 5th birthday!

[@Numbers832]

How can I send you a friend request?

[@chenowethrules9539]

Ruthless Tommy, the Rugrats episode that included a reference to our current president, Donald Trump (addressed as Ronald Thump).
