None of the kids in the 70's were afraid of these commercials because it was in its time. We loved the commercials and we loved McDonald's. The hamburgers was REAL MEAT unlike today, the fries tasted much better and the shakes were more tastier than today. The chocolate tasted chocolatey! And the food was much cheaper as well as the burgers were bigger and you got more fries. Miss those days.

Their generation never knew McDonald's always changed their slogans and jingles like every other company in existence. Remember when they last did in 2010 and everybody hated it so much they reverted back to I'm Lovin' It and kept it forever?
@ApricotRse5 ай бұрын
Well...no. That's incorrect and a common misconception. While Barry Manilow sang one popular version of the jingle (he was not the only one) and included it in his famous V.S.M. (Very Strange Medley) of jingles he either wrote OR sang OR both, he did not write this particular jingle. That credit goes to jingle singer/songwriter Kenny Karen.

It was sung by the Ron Hicklin Singers. Who were like the sound of the 70s in commercials, and The Partridge Family ( the actors didn't sing, except for David Cassidy). theme songs like Love American Style, That Girl, etc. kzbin.info/www/bejne/ZoG4eYKHZaZ8eqc

I was wondering what Grimace was too In 2012, McDonald's Corp tweeted from their official account that Grimace was "the embodiment of a milkshake, though others still insist he's a taste bud." The account tweeted something similar in 2014, saying "Grimace lore says he is the embodiment of a milkshake or a taste bud."

Kids in the 70s were used to all the weird costume shows on Saturday mornings on TV. Sigmund and the Sea monster etc. So they thought this was cool. No commercial with the McDonald's jingle from then? - Two all beef patties, special sauce, lettuce , cheese , pickles, onions on a sesame seed bun." People all over America were trying to say that right. 1975 Simpler times. They were great.

Another fun evening! I'm old enough to remember when Ronald McDonald had a Sunday morning show when he would read the comics to us. At the time I do not remember him as being creepy, but I agree that after Gacy my view of clowns was forever mangled. Burger King emphasized that they made to order so you could easily make changes. Back then, McDonalds made burgers ahead of time and kept them under warming lights. If you got an old one, it was really awful. IIRC, a regular MD burger in the mid-80s was 55 cents. The Big Mac jingle came out when I was in 7th grade and I've never forgotten it.

In the 70s, we had nuclear war hovering over our heads yet we had all sorts of characters and talking objects that didn't scare us. Grimace is just Grimace. We didn't think so hard into what everything was. They were all just people who lived in McDonaldland.

13:50 There was a collection of videos that McDonald's released in the '80s they were cartoons, and of course they teach lessons and at the end all the kids would get McDonald's food but Sunday was from the cartoon That was Ronald's dog in the cartoon and the fry kids I thought there was the fried guys and then later they came out with smaller ones that were the fried kids but I didn't see that in this Cosmic as I recall was again in the '80s and it was a short-lived character where they were doing space stuff, my guess is that they were bringing out because there was a lot of stuff going on with the space shuttle so they did things like Ronald going to another planet and these were the the guys that were there. It all seemed to shut down when the Challenger blew up was kind of like oh we don't want to talk about space anymore.

6:42 something that you have to remember is back when these commercials were made the Sid and Marty Cross superstars was the Saturday morning cartoons and live action stuff that everybody watched, things like Sigmund the sea monster and leadsville and HR Puff and Stuff, these commercials are very reminiscent of leadsville and HR Puff and Stuff. Even the voices of meramec cheese and the other characters is very much like the characters voices in Puff and stuff. You're scared, you were not a Gen X kid This would never have scared a Gen X kid. I don't remember the nobody doesn't like McDonald's can jingle and I am a jingles person I can remember jingles from just about everything but this one don't remember it at all. 10:11 The very first Ronald McDonald was a scary looking clown and the actor that played him was Willard Scott, looking back on it now he's, it's just ridiculous.

3:52 Well I was trying to hear the old commercial to see if they were charging for that Ronald McDonald doll, I think they charged like a buck for it but of course while the voiceover was talking and saying while supplies last and all that you guys wouldn't shut up. It used to be that the fast food places had really good toys with their kids meals. Like that Ronald McDonald doll that's like 13 in tall might have been just a happy meal toy I know I've got a whole set of Burger King toys that were about like that I don't remember what cartoon they were for it might have been Toy Story but when I found them I was like it's can't be kids meal toys but they're still in the bags and that's what it says on them. Also from the beginning I don't ever remember seeing that pirate captain, they always had the hamburglar and the cheeseburger guy that you don't like He was always around I think his nose got a lot smaller but he was Mayor McCheese, later they added officer Big Mac which was a cop with a Big Mac for his head, both of them were removed from the lineup in 1985 but they made a good run, I don't know exactly when mayor McGee's came into the picture but officer Big Mac started in 1971 and they were there through 1985 so 14 years for officer Big Mac and at least one more for Mayor McGee's. They got old and it was tied and very tired anyway.

I couldn't finish watching this. Too much talking and snide comments over the commercials. Annoying. Anyway, McDonald's had a marketing campaign aimed at kids that included a fictional town called McDonaldland, not unlike the fictional town in Mr. Rogers' Neighborhood. Some of the sets were pretty cool, with bridges, streams, parks, etc. and we dug those "scary" characters, so much so that they were often give away items in the form of some sort of toy. And we also loved getting those gift certificates for Christmas. 50 cents each or a book of ten for $5.

Coming out of the hippie 60's and into the 70's, none of this is surprising. I did recognize a couple of these commercials, but not one made me want anything from McDonald's, to me, this is just bad marketing. It's hard to argue with their scheme as they're the most successful fast food chain ever, but it was their food that was good from my point of view. These commercials would have done like most clowns do, scare the sh!t out of kids, not make them want to visit it. lol
