Retro Commercials Vol 9 - 1987

[@george.s.8491]

Man these were the best times. I miss them so much. 1987 seemed like the year lasted forever!

[@hoodlow77]

Great year as a 9 year old

[@southernoregoncatmom6519]

I still love the "Mac Tonight" commercial!

[@adamscott7354]

Well if that wasn't enough he is also rotating atop what appears to be literally the biggest Big Mac ever depicted, they have me sold on that alone, Moon Mutant Frankie Valli is just gravy after that

[@j2times2006]

Yup. Classic

[@taureanmay7480]

Yes.

[@btetschner]

Mac Tonight one is very memorable. Tato Skins one is a blast from the past! Always great to see Max Headroom! I remember that Extra gum commerical, it's excellent. WOW, L.A. Gear! Flintstones vitamin commercial is unforgettable, whoever created that is pure genius. Love that Total commercial with Angela Lansbury, always a pleasure to see her!

[@arrowcrusher]

TV even sounded different back then,

[@mackenziechannel6007]

Brings back some great memories!Thanks for posting!

[@suprchickn7745]

Extra flavor, extra fun in Extra sugar free gum! Jingles were so well done in this era.

[@MarjorieEarlDean]

I forgot about the Kool-Aid mom! She was so cute. I think she was voiced by George Costanza's mom on Seinfeld.

[@adamscott7354]

Changing Lime Skittles to Green apple... YOU WILL NOT BE FORGIVEN WRIGLEY

[@rickjames2.0]

I knew damn near all these commercials. I watched a lot of TV in 87

[@MonasticSolace]

I think everybody did. LOL.

[@taureanmay7480]

Bang.

[@GerardChristopherSBFS]

Anne Lockhart for Alpha Beta Supermarket. Always loved her on TV. And Angela Lansbury! Awesome. Jessica Fletcher gets a balanced breakfast with Total before solving murder mysteries.

[@suprchickn7745]

She was on a few Knight Rider episodes, as pretty as her mom (June Lockhart from Lassie)

[@taureanmay7480]

Hmmmm.

[@MonasticSolace]

6:57. I do Lyft part-time and I was dropping someone off at a car rental place recently because her Suzuki broke down from flooding on the street from a storm. I said: "What?!?! You have a Suzuki?" She said: "Yeah. That's what other people say when they find out I have a Suzuki". Suzuki stopped selling cars in North America in 2012.

[@adamscott7354]

Oh yeah Dexatrim, you barf, you get the runs, and you lose weight! Huzza!

[@Doomzdayxx]

Bring back Mac tonight!

[@rayrosini8907]

The Kool-Aid Moms voice sounds just like George Costanzas Mom on Seinfeld.

[@brentmann2988]

9:21 the great David Doyle on the voice-over for Alka-Seltzer. 5:24 The voice of Doug Paul. If you watched WGN (Chicago), WPIX (NYC) or KPIX (SF) in the 80s, you'll know this guy's voice. 4:08 Sometimes Randy Newman sounded like a parody of himself. 😊

[@danielboone3770]

Thank so much for this!! I LOVE LOVE LOVE it!

[@george.s.8491]

I had the mac tonight sunglasses

[@johnmullee9869]

[@adamscott7354]

So weird to see the same actress promo both the sugar free and classic versions its like, well, healthy choice or not? Pick a damn side! stop confusing me!

[@taureanmay7480]

Wow.

What ever happened to Tato Skins and KFC's Chicken Littles ?

[@marthajimenez3421]

KFC brings back Chicken Littles every so often. You still see commercials for it, just modernized.

[@adamscott7354]

What is it you think of first when saying "Chicken Little"? The story about a baby chick clamoring how the sky is falling yes? Not a good marketing angle, especially when you consider all those male chicks being macerated for animal feed even if it wasnt going into nuggets and pink slime

[@adamscott7354]

@@marthajimenez3421 To think that Kfc was ahead of the game with this, and not their Kfc Snacker or whatever, but McDonalds swoops in with the Jr Chicken at the right time, no one of the current main market remembers chicken littles and once McD's establishes something and people are used to it, there's no going back, A&W pitches a 1/3rd lb'r over Md's Quarter Lb'r, that its more meat, sales to McDonalds still increased and people stuck with the QP because they thought it was somehow more sandwich America? Just blame it on the imperial system? I dunno

[@Ovenmitttt]

Tato skins and Krunch Twists! Ahh, and E.L. Fudge. Those were the days.

[@taureanmay7480]

Mac tonight has a pretty interesting backstory- check out his wiki sometime.

When you come down here to nostalgia lane, you know commercials were different, gonna see some weird shit, But nothing, nothing on this Earth could have possibly prepared me for Grandma version of Kool-Aid guy May god forgive us...

Do gum companies even make commercials anymore? This compilation is no exaggeration. We used to be clobbered by advertising for gum and I feel like it doesn't happen in 2021.
