Sometimes I feel sad my kids will never experience how simple it was in the 90s. It's like technology is a blessing and a curse all at the same time.
Doodle Pop yeah even i get tired of the technology sometimes but at least we can still watch these videos from the past
Very true. As a 90s kid, you could not pay me to grow up as a kid in this current time period. These current kids really pulled the short end of the stick. It sucks.
@@elliem.9652 Facts, I'd literally do anything to grow up during the 70s-90s than now
The generation before us said the same thing about technology...and the generation before that. Imagine growing up in the 60's and dealing with how much technology had taken over by the 90s.
There is an absolutely massive difference between the technology that existed 50-60 years ago and the way that the internet/social media has changed society in the last 20-30 years. If you can't see that, you're blind. This isn't a case of just "every generation says this".
Sitting here watching this I actually felt myself relax on the inside. I haven't felt that way since I was a kid. No bills, no job, no worries.
Somebody please give me a ride back to the 90s... The BEST YEARS EVER
I'm so happy I was able to grow up in the 90s. I wish I could go back. Simpler times. Even the fast food was better back then.
When the Happy Meals were $1.99...those toys are nostalgic, I’m so grateful that I was born in the 80’s and grew up in the 90’s. There was no better time to grow up
When I was a kid in the 90s, I couldn’t wait for the commercials to be over now I come on TH-cam and search 90s commercials. Lol 😆
90s: Best decade hands down! Simple times, bangin' music and there was enough technology to appreciate but not so much that it hindered friendships/relationships.
Cant believe that in 2020, the 90s will have started THIRTY YEARS AGO. That dumbfounds me.
Watching these commercials gives me a warm fuzzy feeling inside. Brings me back to when I was a kid in the 90’s and times were simpler
Ah, the 90s: A time when mom and dad were still together, Nickelodeon and MTV were watchable, Mongoose BMX bikes, playing the Super Nintendo and Sega Genesis stand demos at Service Merchandise and Goosebumps. What the fuck happened, world?
Yea before mongoose was sold at Walmart and all their parts turned into crap. Simpler times not really cell phones the occasional beepers, you could actually be a kid. Makes me sad sometimes that my kids will never experience that
Wow..your comment hit home with me real hard, all the way down to the parents being together. It's also the hard truth and makes me so grateful I got to experience the good life🍻
Makes me want to build a time machine to travel back to the 90s.
ancient arms of magnetic gaming moments you’re half way back in time watching this
I’m right back to being an elementary kid again, sitting on the living room floor in my parents’ apartment. Nothing really beats this nostalgic headrush. No stress. No worries. Just a kid chewing on my drinking straws and watching random television.
I have good memories of sitting in my grandmother’s den watching a lot of these commercials 😊
I swear, most fast food joints had better tasting food back then 😪
I agree. Pizza Hut may as well change its name. These days I don't even recognize it as the same pizza I grew up on.
It drives me nuts how people don’t seem to notice this. Probably in service to cost cutting I feel like everywhere has gotten worse but when I bring it up people think I’m full of it.
Ah yes, the brand new tv series “Friends” premiering this fall on NBC.
I was 10. I played with Barbies. I remember most of these commercials! My dad was still alive during these, so strange to think of him watching these-alive, breathing. I miss these days.
Humanity peaked in the 90s.
Right! I feel the same way
I feel like the world ended in 2000 and we're living in limbo
To think about it I was born in 1990 when I was a kid I felt like time couldn't move fast enough. Now I feel like time is moving too fast! Wow I feel old.
I miss watching TV. Just lying on my bed, and only the remote in my hand. No tabs, no social media, or e-mails, no way to stop things midway to "watch it later".
Cosby commercial made me laugh.
As Andy Bernard would say....
“I wish there was a way to know you're in the good old days before you've actually left them.” 😭
Would give anything to live out the rest of my life in the 80s and 90s
McDonald’s tasted so good in the 90’s
Pretty much the only true tasting burgers at this point are Tommy's, In-N-Out, and Fatburger. Mostly West-coast stuff if you aren't familiar lol.
I sooooo miss the 90’s, good music, good entertainment, just good all the way around.
This reminds me of staying up late on weeknights and flipping through the channels to find something to watch. You had to flip through the channels you liked and if commercials were on you had to wait until after the break to see what was on.
This was before the internet, or at least what it is today. There was no watching whatever you wanted on TH-cam or a stream service. You couldn't just pop on an online game with friends or randoms. By then you had probably watched the VHS tape you rented and really didn't feel like playing the Nintendo or Sega cartridge you rented.
There is something about the simple look and something in the sound of those commercials that modern day commercials will never have. Commercials had that kind of "deep boom" effect with the sound.
Simpler days.
I am so glad stuff like this is still around. Takes me back to when things were a lot easier and carefree. Ahh memories
I’m from Australia & In the 90’s when I was a kid our family went on a big American vacation - one of the biggest memories that I still have from our time traveling is watching all these unique commercials on the television while staying at different motels/hotels all over America. It was a real window of time, looking back at them now on TH-cam gives me so much nostalgia.
Born in 86. It's like someone went back in time and recorded my television..
God I miss this decade!
Sure do miss the 90s. What a great time
Yep... there was war and politics, but none of it was shoved down anyone's throat. It was mostly live-and-let live.
When life felt magical and exciting because you didn't have everything at your fingertips. The people around you weren't tech zombies, they were happier and more caring. That's how I remember it.
I just jumped into a time machine and went back to my childhood. These were the highlight years. In my opinion the last great decade.
I'd love to grow up again thru the 90s
This makes me sad that tv isn’t like this anymore
@@sheashells I agree 100%. And what's amazing is to think that all of these ads were shot on film. I feel like the time and craftsmanship to put together a 30 second commercial in 1994 is sometimes above what goes into a full length movie today. The commercials are clear, to-the-point, and great to look at.
I stopped watching cable tv over 10 years ago. It’s been 99% trash for a while now, imho
I was 17 when watching these commercials each night, and I swear, it's like I saw them yesterday, like no time has gone on!
It's surreal. My body is aging but my mind is mostly the same. Remember how "bright" it was back then?
Wow after watching this I feel like a kid again, god I miss the 90s
I think a significant part of the nostalgia in these commercials, even for those who weren't teens in the 90s, is that we had a more optimistic vision of the future back then than we do now. We thought the new millennium was going to be a fresh start for humanity, separate from the atrocities that happened in the 20th century and united by the communicational power of the Internet. We were happy and carefree. Everything was going to be ok.
And look where we are today.
I usually do not try to bring politics into these comment sections, but the elections of 2000 and 2016 were probably the most impactful in the history of this country, and dramatically affected the course of where the country was heading. When you wonder how we got to where we are now, look back at those two points.
And the fresh start from the “atrocities of the 20th century” was the 1950s-1990s…where a great deal of social change and upheaval happened, for the betterment of society. This new century seems to be on course to regress the progress of the latter half of the 20th century.
@80sCommercialVault It's fine if you discuss politics. I'm not a huge politics guy, but I do agree that the famous orange man elected in 2016 was a major upset in the history of the US. I can't say much of Bush, given I hadn't yet been born when he was elected, but it's fascinating how much his public approval rate fluctuated.
As for the "fresh start" I talked about, what I mean by that is simply the feeling of entering the 2000s. Maybe there have been historical periods for which "fresh start" is a better description, but for most, the new millennium was simply a much more tangible and fixed point to call something like "the beginning of a new era".
I unfortunately did not have the opportunity to experience this beginning though, so I may be wrong and I'll accept it if I am, but the 2000s certainly seemed like it was going to be a beautiful era for mankind.
The point is, if I had been born in the late 20th century, I would draw the line between 'good' and 'bad' life on September 11, 2001. For me, 9/11 represents that illusion of a prosperous future, a more peaceful world for all nations, the so-called American Dream, all fading away as we watched the towers fall, either with our own eyes or behind a TV screen. It was the day we began to look into the past rather than the future.
Always remember that 9/11 was not an inevitable event; it was an intelligence failure and could have been prevented with the proper people in charge. The Bush admin received intelligence memos during the summer of 2001 that could have been acted upon, but weren't.

@@80sCommercialVault
Have you ever heard about the album "News at 11"? It's a record that includes samples of TV broadcasts on 9/11, but just before they say the date or notify about the attack, it cuts to Weather Channel music, almost as if you traveled back in time and changed channels just as it happened in a weird sort of denial, an inability to accept the loss of innocence after being traumatized by a historical event.
I know that it wasn't inevitable, but it makes the attacks even more impactful. The fact that we could have avoided losing 3,000 lives, including my mother's cousin, is what makes their ghosts persist. How can such a developed nation not be able to elect a decent leader? How can such an indecent leader let a developed nation be attacked? You can experience the future, but you will never forget the past. I certainly won't.
This was like stepping in a time machine.. instantly felt calm watching these!😊
So sad things will never be there same again and only memories are left.
I remember those jewelry commercials so well.
Would love to go back in time. 90s were the best.
My grandpa worked at McDonalds in the 90's and brought me toys from their Happy Meals all the time, and I distinctly remember that green HotWheels car. It was my favorite one. Seeing it again in that advertisement at 6:20 just nostalgia bombed me.
1994. Dead end job, no money, 24 years old, great memories.
That Subway commercial brought back memories. I liked the way they used to cut their bread. And I miss the way that their bread used to taste and smell. They changed their bread at some point in the late 90s or early 00s, and it's just not as good anymore.
I was lucky. My local place would still give me the ‘U’ gouge (is what they called it) on request. The side cut just sucked, everything would just fall out the side!
These are so relaxing to watch. I was only 7 in 94, but I remember a few of these.
I hate today and what I wouldn't give to go back.
this is the best use of the internet that i've witnessed
It really is!🤓
Back then life felt so different, so much more excitement, no serious worries about the future….I was able to enjoy life! Damn, I miss that time 😢
God, there was so much effort and art put into commercials back then, today it's just crap!! I was born in 87 and grew up with these awesome commercials.
Now it seems like most commercials are for prescription drugs with a long list of possible side effects. And there's tons of dancing in most other commercials.
Brings tears to my eyes ...as a 37 year old I remember being a kid with my brothers watching TV.... especially TGIF on Fridays
Omg yes!! Boy meets world! Family matters! Jeez what a time to be
I'm a 90's kid and it's great watching these commercials man it does bring me back in time for just a brief moment
Loved the early 90s and miss them dearly.... Tv was better, movies were better and music was better. Just a better time all around...
Not a cell phone in sight, just people living in the moment
There was a cordless phone in the Friends ad...
Cordless landline phones are not cell phones
The shadow jewellery commercial!!!!!!!
I was born sep 84, so I was 10 when these commercials were running and I remember every single one cause TV was my life at that age lol
So was I! September 5th!
Every thing was better back then..
Make it a Blockbuster night.
I was 20 yrs old....45 now, seems like just yesterday but it was a lifetime ago.
Wow commercials were actually bearable. I forgot lol. Now commercials are garbage mostly.
When you can remember Taco Bell was just another 11 to 9 joint and not synonymous with night-owl stoners lol.
Commercials were better back then
It's so weird how commercials have become so watered down with no creativity. 80s and 90s commercials all had so much more substance
5:12 - I found it funny that a cosmetics company was using "I'm Too Sexy..." for their ad campaign, considering it was essentially a novelty parody song poking fun at the kind of models who appeared in these commercials.
The commercial with Grey Poupon. Now that is a classic.
Watching these with my 9 year old. First commercial (Subway), my son goes “Is that what cars looked like back then??” 😒
I wish
Well technically yea but that seems more like a vehicle from 40s or so, definitely not 90s
8:02 I used to love those "The More You Know" ads. The 90s was full of educating us as well as entertaining us in a positive way...smh what the heck happened?!
my dad worked for deBeers, 80s and throughout the 90s. we lived everywhere, south afrika, germany, netherlands, and of course belgium, later on canada and arctic circle. rest in peace dad. i moved to the usa in 1996 :))) thanks for the video
At the dawn of the Information Age... we didn’t know how much we would be divided by Internet.
I remember the 90s clear as day. People were kinder, more intelligent and more connected to each other.
90's were a lot more fun. And far safer than today.
Violent crime statistics hit their peak in the mid 1990’s. They may have been more fun but the U.S. is far safer today than it was back then.
Damn I miss seeing Dave in the Wendy's ads
The two halves of the 90s are like two different centuries: these commercials look the same as those from the 70s and 80s, but late 90s commercials look like current ones.
That's part of the reason why I refuse to post anything from after 1996.
80sCommercialVault kinda wished you posted after 96, it’s the era of the 90s that I’m more into
@@AxeIRad Then please go watch/support channels that post ads from that era instead of wishing that I post content that I'm not at all interested in.
80sCommercialVault just what happened after 1996?
In 1996, the FCC began enforcing the Children's Television Act: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Regulations_on_children%27s_television_programming_in_the_United_States#Children%27s_Television_Act
This was basically the death knell for Saturday Morning Cartoons, and within five years most of them were gone from the lineup of the major networks. A great deal of my videos are focused on preserving the ads from Saturday Morning blocks.
In 1997 the FTC began allowing Direct To Consumer advertising of prescription drugs. Prior to this, prescription drugs could not be advertised on TV. This essentially opened the floodgates of the advertising hellscape we now live in. Only two countries in the entire world allow this sort of advertising, the United States and New Zealand.
So the answer is basically...changes in Federal regulations made in the last 25 years have completely transformed TV and advertising.
Ernest goes to jail continues.
What do you want on your Tombstone?
Loved that tombstone commercial
Oh man I miss these days.
That Tombstone commercial is way darker than I remember 😆.
I've got my PC hooked up to my giant CRT TV and I like to play this on loop some days. The real authentic 90s experience
I sure miss those days..
i dont know what it is but the commercials back then, they seemed so well done as compared to todays ads, now it seems rushed and no thought or care is put into reaching out to consumers...
As with everything... you had a different generation of people back then putting the cultural products together. Men and women from a different generation who took their time and put absolute care into what they created. Things today are made for cheap laughs or cheap thrills. It's sad, really. At some point America got too self-conscious about being "cheesy" or "corny" and everything had to be "cool", "edgy", simply "didn't care"
What is it about old tv commercials that touch that nostalgia spot so strongly?
because as a kid you were bombarded with them constantly every week. amazing how you can remember a commercial that was 20 seconds shown a few dozen times, from over 20 years ago like you just saw it.
L B right?! I’m watching these and actually feeling a choked up. Remembering so much that was happening during those times. Probably because we would see these commercials so many times a day so it has a bigger imprint on us when it comes to memories.
That phone was the highlight of this video, by far. Well that and Woodstock 94. How many people remember that these days?
i remember all these commercials. grew up with them during the 90's era! brings back so many memories thanks to the uploader and YT to allow all of us to experience this nostilagia!
These are commercials from my city, Philadelphia. I was 8 in 94. This brings back memories, especially the Tombstone and Glad commercial
We need time machines now!
6:17 I actually got all of those Mcdonalds cars! And i still have them today!
My childhood in a whole youtube video
Amazing. Living in California during the 90s, I've seen these same mainstream commercials, then in between our local commercials aired. It's pretty interesting how this ad frequency, and music melodies was engraved in our minds at an early age.
The DeBeers commercial is epic !
15:30 _God_ I miss Blockbuster
A commercial for friends i can't even imagine it
I finally found the miniature Barbies that my grandmother gave me...it's from McDonalds in the 90's! Wow.
The friends commercial announcing that it is coming this fall is amazing. 6:42
Thank you for the nostalgia!
@Nick de windt To be honest I don't remember Catalanos. I've lived in Brooklyn most my life. Google says it was a grocery store in Highland Heights, but we always stuck to good old Marc's!
oh, I remember when they use to cut subway bread like that
Sonia Rena right! Tasted way different too. The bread has changed a lot.
Rip my past
Commercials these days are so incredibly annoying, no creativity, so substance. Not like they used to be
I never got the subway joke "On your choice of rolls", then the camera cuts to the Rolls-Royce. Get it? The car...choice of rolls...Rolls-Royce, oh nevermind.
Pretty sure the internet ruined everything, except for being able to watch these commercials.
The world was absolutely a different place before internet adoption begun en masse starting around 1995-96. Social media is just the logical consequence of having internet access available in a handheld electronic device.
Man I miss these days everything felt so real now days everything feels fake and forced idk it's way way different now I wish I could go back
This is bringing back so many memories. Omg seriously!!
I remember every single one of these commercials. Every single one. I was a latchkey kid.
I wasn't even born around this time but I still wanna know what it's like living in the 80s/90s
Don't use the internet or smartphone for a week and you might get some idea.
@@80sCommercialVault 👍
It was unforgettable in so many ways, for a kid it was a great era
