Vintage Jim Henson Commercials - Royal Crown Cola

Jim Henson produced commercials for Royal Crown Cola in 1966. The ads featured two Muppets, Nutty Bird and Sour Bird.

[@d-manthecaptain1382]

"People who don't drink Royal Crown Cola just blow up sometimes!" "I disagree." "Well anyway, I like it."

[@BigBroTejano]

Well, at least one of the products Jim made commercials for is still around.

Imagine us finding the last Royal Crown Cola muppet commercial!

[@richardthedwumrhol6070]

The fourth commercial is called, "Swallow".

[@morgansparents1]

Sour Bird: that’s your 4th RC Cola. Don’t you think you’ve had enough? Nutty Bird: I refuse to answer. Sour Bird: why? Nutty Bird: I’m drinking the 5th!!!

[@ОксанаПольсман]

Sour Bird: that's your Purina Dog Chow. Don't you think you've had enough? Suzy: I refuse to answer. Sour Bird: why? Suzy: I'm eating the 5th!!!

[@superleviathan]

This is one of Big Bird's ancestors.

[@MrMegaManFan]

"Hi-ho! Kermit the Frog here for RC Cola!" But seriously the fact they touted it as an "energy drink" ought to tell you that most of the "energy drinks" on the market today are just soda with extra caffeine. They aren't "formulated" for an "extra boost." They're soda. It's all soda.

[@benthomason3307]

soda with kidney-clogging chemicals in it.

[@ThereAreThoseWhoCallMeTim]

Always has been. *points a gun at the back of Mistah’s head*

[@ZeldaTheSwordsman]

No, they also have taurine added to make them taste more bitter and thus medicine-y

[@elizabethingram6375]

“I drink a lot.” You don’t say?

[@parker-boy98]

Yeah

[@hiinternet4542]

[@DiscoverGuy]

Unlike most Jim Henson commercials, this brand's commercials don't contain violence.

[@525Lines]

The open birds mouth is the RC logo. Subtle and clever.

[@NJGuy1973]

0:32-0:33 "Oh, rapture! Sublime!" A few years later on Sesame Street, Big Bird sang a song about how he loved "four, the number sublime."

[@mariajalal6404]

[@RoninCatholic]

I like Royal Crown Cola. Can't have that much sugar anymore with my diet and all, so I'm looking around for some Wilkins Coffee...

[@Noid]
