All of these actors have now passed away - Ken Osmond being the most recent. That makes me sad :-( . . . but it also tells me these actors surely left their marks on the world.
if all of these characters would have appeared in one program together, it would have been the greatest crossover episode of all time. sadly, however, none of them are with us any longer
Maxwell Smart thinks the Munsters are spies follows them on a boat where the Cleavers just happen to be taking the dream vacation cruise they've saved for years for and when Siegfried attacks the ship and it runs aground on Gilligan's island?
The Beverly Hillbillies, The Munsters, Get Smart, Gilligan's Island and Leave It to Beaver do take place in the same universe. June from Leave It To Beaver and Grandpa from The Munsters appear the episode Make My Bed (June) and Grey Skies (Grandpa) from a short lived sitcom called Hi Honey, I'm Home while June, Wally and Beaver appeared alongside Gilligan and The Skipper from Gilligan's Island and Maxwell from Get Smart in the film Back to the Beach. The Beverly Hillbillies crossover with Green Acres while Lisa from that show also appeared in the Hi Honey, I’m Home episode Honey’s First Job.
I wish they did more commercials like this. This was great they did that. Gilligan's must've been lucky that they took him off the island just so he can eat a French Fry. I hope he brought the food back for the others.
Gee wiz.. all these iconic American television actors have past on !! These are well done McDonald's commercials.. too bad clown Ronald didn't make appearance. !! Nice memories of yesteryears gone bye...thank you for posting. peace be too all
I remember these ads. I thought these were great. Grand Pa Munster Eddie Haskell June Cleaver Jed Clampett Gilligan and Maxwell Smart. Love Eddie's laugh and that high school sweater he's wearing. And Grand Pa and Gilligan being their goofy selves.This was back when ads were fun to watch. Love these ads.
I would have been 3 or 4 years old when this commercial came out. I was born in the 80’s but don’t remember the 80’s. It seemed like a nicer time than now.
Buddy Ebsen (1908 - 2003); Jed Clampett - "The Beverly Hillbillies" Barbara Billingsley (1915 - 2010); June Cleaver - "Leave It To Beaver" Al Lewis (1923 - 2006); Grandpa - "The Munsters" Don Adams (1923 - 2005); Maxwell Smart - "Get Smart" Bob Denver (1935 - 2005); Gilligan - "Gilligan's Island" Ken Osmond (1943 - 2020), Eddie Haskell - "Leave It To Beaver" The Beveryly Hillbillies' truck is still around, though, and is on display at the Ralph Foster Museum on the campus of The College of the Ozarks in Point Lookout, Missouri.
Nice seeing Al Lewis. Would've been nice to see Butch Patrick or Yvonne De Carlo in it. But oh well. I know Al was heavily into portraying his character even this many years later. The character was so much of his personality anyway. Like he said "why not, it pays the bills".
+vintagerosenz He couldn't escape the character, he tried too but lost. He kept getting typecast as a Grandpa-like character. He kept trying to get different roles, but eventually gave in and accepted it.
@@kevinmiller6324 Would have been great, unfortunately Fred Gwynne wanted nothing to do with the series after it ended because he kept getting scripts typecasting as either a monster type character or no one would believe that "Herman Munster" could play the part. He had lots of resentment towards the character.
What makes me sad is that none of these amazing stars of yesteryear are with us anymore. I grew up with each and every one of them, every afternoon. And now I can only see them through TH-cam clips. RIP Al Lewis, Barbara Billingsley, Bob Denver, Buddy Epsen, Don Adams, and Ken Osmond.
@@Frnk_3 Thank you, Brandon. I love leave it to beaver. I watch the show every morning on cable tv. Eddie Haskell was the most two-faced character in television history. Have a great day 😘. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
Buddy Ebsen was a vegetarian too. Guess he was such an acting pro he could hold the burger close enough--that "hoooooo-oooo-weee!" ain't just whistlin' Dixie, folks! lol
If McDonald's ever did one of these retro commercials again, here are the characters I'd love to see reprising their roles: John Walton, George Jefferson, Carol and Greg Brady, Fonzie
Barbara Billingsly died in 2010 at age 94. Ken Osmond is the last survivor of this reunion. . . . unless someone saved that double cheeseburger. It probably looks the same.
Jed Clampett, Maxwell Smart, Gilligan (I believe his first name is Willy, but I'm not 100% sure on that), June Cleaver, Eddie Haskell, and Grandpa Sam Dracula enjoying lunch.
Sad to know that except for Ken Osmond (Eddie), the rest of these celebrities have passed away being no longer with us today. I ate some Double Cheeseburgers at my local McDonald's a few days ago thinking about how sadly they are not around anymore to even eat what I was eating anymore or even visit a McDonald's.
Great ad campaign! I don't remember watching it, lol. I remember when a McDonalds opened up in Greenwich Village NYC in the 70s and they had hamburgers on sale for 15 cents. I would look for loose change in the sofa and eat the hell out of those nasty burgers as a kid. Better then starving! The last time I went to McDs they were running 1 dollar Big Macs, I think that was the 90s.
These actors in these McDonald's spots are no longer with us-Al Lewis ("The Munsters"); Don Adams ("Get Smart"); Bob Denver ("Gilligan's Island"); Barbara Billingsley ("Leave It To Beaver") and Buddy Ebsen ("The Beverly Hillbillies"). Ken Osmond (Eddie Haskell) is the only surviving star left.
Should have had Grandpa Munster say something like "I love sinking my teeth into these!" And maybe update a joke from the show "Shoot me the plasma" then getting passed the ketchup.
@ifoundaskull OMG, I remember these commercials but I scrolled down to your comment and looked up and both are at the same 1:34 mark. I had enough by the time I hit that mark.
Ken Osmond R.I.P.
I'm grateful for an era growing up in.
Thank you for this.

Sigh! Yes. Grew up with these characters. And yes it would have been an epic crossover episode with all these characters. One can only imagine.

This was just genius advertising.
Actually.. this commercial SUCKED. I could of written something clever than that.
The Beverly Hillbillies, Leave it to Beaver, Gilligan's Island, The Munsters and Get Smart sounds like the weekday lineup for the local UHF station.
UHF? I haven't heard that since cable TV was invented.😮😮😮😮
So many great actors from the past, it's sad that most of them have passed away.
With Eddie Haskell passing away today they are all gone.

They have all passed away
Can we trade some of today's lot for these great people?
@@v-town1980 Definitely not.

That was fun. May they all rest in peace. 🤗
I am so old, i remember them very well.
Greatest commercials ever for someone like me from that Era. Love all of these actors.
The Icons from my Youth .... and Eddie :)
I like French food too so I'm heading to McD's after work.
Wow things were awesome in 1989, glad I was born that year. Wish I'd have been born earlier to experience the awesomeness of the 80's.
Wilson Fisk ...and the 60s and 70s.
Wilson Fisk but at least we experienced the awesomeness of the 90's
The 50s the 60s 70s and 80s were the great decades but when the 90s rolled around it all went to hell and hasn't looked back.
Except for MTM the eighties were highly overrated.

but seems I must’ve got a little peek at it
I do remember the Grandpa/Munsters
Thank you! Thank you! I loved these!
What a wonderful commercial!
They should have race between The Beverly Hillbillies truck and Munster Koach. But make sure the truck has Ganny's Mooshine in the gas tank.
Me and my grandfather used to watch Leave it to Beaver all the time. To see Eddie and Mrs. Cleaver makes me smile. RIP Ken and Barb.

@@harleyray5183 Too bad they didn't have William Perry in this commercial; he made a McDonald's commercial as a Chicago Bears rookie in 1985.
@@runequester6834 Lol. True.
I get the reference. He commenced to eatin’ ever since he was a little boy. :)
I kind of wish they did a skit with all of them interacting. my favorite was Maxwell and grandpa monster together.
When commercials were fun.
Al Lewis always loved to have fun, especially as Grandpa Munster.
Makes you miss the 80s more knowing that all these actors are no longer with us
R.I.P. to these TV legends!
Did they ever replay some of these in the 90’s? I weirdly recall Grandpa in McDonald’s.
Wow this is really cool,I was stationed in the Navy in Japan in 1989, I missed this one.......so its brand new for me now.😆👍🇺🇸
Inspector Gadget is in the commercial!
this came out the year i was born!
The only thing these commercials were missing was Barney Fife.
Barney probably would have shot himself in the foot trying to make a 'citizen's arrest.' Lol.
I'm Deputy Barney Fife! I'm here to make a citizen's arrest and to confiscate all those double cheeseburgers.
Talk about it nostalgia and they were all rocking sitcom
Wow when commercials were good. Now a days all we get are pharmaceutical and other garbage advertising. Great upload.
You played the same commercial twice, but what the hell. Still a better contribution to TH-cam than 99% of the stuff that's on here.
I love French food!
That Double Cheeseburger tasted way better back then than they do now.
The double cheeseburger was much bigger then. From Ms. Harper Stacey.
If McDonald's ever did one of these retro commercials again, here are the characters I'd love to see reprising their roles:

Barbara Billingsly died in 2010 at age 94. Ken Osmond is the last survivor of this reunion. . . . unless someone saved that double cheeseburger. It probably looks the same.
IDK about that but I bet the fries would look the same after 30 years.
The burgers do last over a decade. No joke. A guy found 1 in his jacket pocket over a decade later and even the bun wasnt moldy. Great science.
Ken Osmond died today.
Could probably patch a tire with it. Just saying
UPDATE (six years later): Ken Osmond died on May 18, 2020. All are gone now.
Back when their commercials grabbed your attention and made you want to eat there!

ah the 80's when even the commercials were great. can we just all go back and forget everything after the 90's even happened?
I forgot about that series of commercials.

At 0:10 Jed Clampett says " oooh wee" rather than his signature "Weeell Doggie"
I guess McDonald's didn't want dog associated with their meat.

Probably did

Barbara Billingsley lived the longest, having passed away a decade ago (2010) at the age of 94.
Barbara turns 94 on December 22. :-)
