They're not creative for the time. You just aren't used to the culture of the world at the time So you can't see how this first commercial is a rip off To the hippie movement. These videos are trash like Their food
Because they were sued out of existence. Mcdonaldland was basically a carbon copy of a Sid Marty Krofft TV show called HR pufnstuf. The Krofft Brothers sued and won.

those terrifying, terrifying monsters they called and I quote 'happy' that have replaced Ronald are terrifying. and to make it even worse, their canonically friends with the minions. I swear, I'm going to by up the old, retired characters and save them from the legacy of being in the despicable me 'franchise'!
@@BNWOCHUD The Minions definitely overstay their welcome in terms of the marketing, but I don't take the blame on the Despicable Me film franchise for that. The reason why Ronald McDonald got replaced by that "Happy" character is due to the clown sightings trend on the Internet became a huge deal in the US in 2016.
The McDonaldland Ads are definetly for kids eyes, seeing this as an adult is really scary to be fair! 😂 I won't recommend this for people on drugs as well! 😂
What happened to all the creativity? Nowadays it's just fast food companies trying to make as much money as possible with little budget costs from commercials
To be fair Mcdonaldland was not creativity..but rather the result of them copyright infringing the design and character construction inherent in Sid and Marty Krofts H.R Puff N Stuff. After a deal fell through Mcdonalds went through with deeboing the goods and using them to advertise a.k.a 'brainwash' young children.
.....are you joking? They were literally sued, successfully, for ripping off HR Pufnstuf Like did you seriously think this was both original, *and* was done for fun and artistic reason, and not trying to make as much money as possible?
Those marketing campaings had a lot of budget. That is why they aged better than say other companies from the same era that had lower budgets for marketing.
This old country really needs more commercials with apple pie trees, thick shake volcanos French fry trees mr Big Mac and mr big cheese. More great fun Macdonald commercials.
McDonalds 1970= let's make a mini storyline about Ronald McDonald and his mcbuddies going on random adventures to advertise food for kids McDonalds now= let's advertise food by making celebrity meals
I knew about the Sid and Marty Krofft lawsuit, but didn't really understand it until I saw these first commercials; it really does look imitative of HR Pufnstuf.
I’ve came up in the late 1970s when McDonald’s was still advertising these commercials featuring Ronald McDonald because I do not remember these earlier commercials because I was then a baby coming in the world at that time and today none of these characters are no longer in the commercials anymore since they had taken them all out of service because Ronald McDonald and his friends had seen better days now but the business still lives on but the childhood memories will always be remembered.
Remember when Ronald McDonald would come to your local McDonald's, and the restaurant was jam packed with excited kids holding "Hi Ronald" signs? Me neither.
Anyone know who narrated some of those commercials? The "said Ronald" ones. Sounds like a take-off of Pete Smith who narrated all those "Pete Smith Specialty" shorts that MGM used to make in the 1930's and 40's.
It does sound cheap, true, but to be fair, $50 cents was probably a weeks worth of pocket money back then. For context a regular burger back then would have costed roughly 20-25 cents. Nowadays a regular burger costs about at least a dollar or two.
Now you should make a video of all the other McDonald’s commercials including the ones with only Ronald Mcdonald ones, the ones that feature the characters outside of McDonaldland and all of the others
Let me know if you're able to find it - I'm considering putting together an updated version of this compilation (this one is missing many commercials).

I am fascinated by these ads they’re so creative
Not really. Some of them were discovered to be copyrighted from kids show “H.R. Puffenstuf”.

Because they were sued out of existence. Mcdonaldland was basically a carbon copy of a Sid Marty Krofft TV show called HR pufnstuf. The Krofft Brothers sued and won.
Wut
Because unfortunately souless design and pandering is more cost effective :C It's sad honestly
IK!! THE STORY ONES ARE RLY GOOD!!!!
These 70s McDonalds ads are charming and chill nice change of pace from modern ads.
That first one is so hippy like.
I mean it was made in the 70s
It sounds so cool though
😎🎸
It actually slaps though. The perfect song to play while baked as hell on the way to cure the munchies

Cruising for a bad trip lol
This brings back a lot of memories!!! Thanks for posting a clear copy of the soundtrack.
3:45 i died when I saw the grimace glitch
The first incarnations of the Hamburglar really are terrifying.

Over share?
We really need to bring back these throw backs! I bet it would be popular as the shezwan sause
I really remember the early ones from Saturday mornings!!
Back when McDonald's was a happy place
Was that a Mac Tonight remix playing in the intro? Cool
Also, what happened to Hamburglar's face!?!? I'm soooooo glad they redesigned him!!

@@JamesBroxson Donald didn't do that the people who created McDonald land did that
The quality of the old American commercials is impressive, many of them don't even look like they are from the 70's, I would say 90's.

They can't they got sued for copyright
Don't forget them hamburger patches
Lot of imagination back then
Good god. I forgot Grimace used to be Evil
That first theme song variation is really swinging and groovy. 🎵
2:44 "Like Ronald said"
That was pretty fun, ya know!
Love them. I’m 60 now, but was 11-12 when they came out!
2:46 but…. Like Ronald says……
*OOON*
Can you believe the work that was done in putting together McDonald land just for a small commercial.That was the set decor for a tv show.
I don't know what to think about this 😭
It's really weird and definitely feels like a strange fever dream but I'm fascinated
A TRIP through McDonald’s land
Like if you want these commercials back 👍
Can we just take a minute here to realize how terrifying ronald was.
Nope
What about other characters like idk....
The Hamburglar
he was thick af though
Nothing terrifying about him at all
0:32 - 0:52
"That sounds awesome! It kill me before I'm twenty, but what an amazing way to go!"
I loved those mcdonalds commercials and willard scott as ronald mcdonald
I'm starting to question my existence and I'm starting to see McDonald's prints inside of my palms.... Is life even real
McDonalds 1970= let's make a mini storyline about Ronald McDonald and his mcbuddies going on random adventures to advertise food for kids
McDonalds now= let's advertise food by making celebrity meals
The hamburger patch should have had a slaughterhouse and a factory farm
BirminghamBoy the cows?
BirminghamBoy I guess so
I can't believe they made a whole commercial about throwing away your trash. It's not even a message about recycling. Just throw your trash away.
Throw your trash away
I remember hearing about these commercials from Yesterworld
Why does Ronald McDonald in the 1971 ad looks like he dropped a large dookie in a diaper- 😭😭😭
thats some nightmare stuff
Nobody:
60-70's hamburgaler: a boopie dee ah eey it HAMBURGER!
17:18 C O O K I E S
I knew about the Sid and Marty Krofft lawsuit, but didn't really understand it until I saw these first commercials; it really does look imitative of HR Pufnstuf.
This is making me hungry!!!!
The first song sounded like country joe and the fish!

I want these ads instead of the ones we have 😭
Pretty sure they stole all of this from Sid and Marty Krofft, but you've got to love how "far out" the 1970s were.
Literally it’s SO sid and marty krofft
McDonaldland: A rip-off of H.R Pufnstuf
These days we’re getting worse food, shittier marketing and higher priced food. Come on man. 🤦♂️
If McDonald still had these ad’s I would always watch Ads if I get these
The McDonald Land Intro song 🔥🔥
I love them! Is sad that they don't make them like before
STRANGER DANGER!!
Anyone know who narrated some of those commercials? The "said Ronald" ones. Sounds like a take-off of Pete Smith who narrated all those "Pete Smith Specialty" shorts that MGM used to make in the 1930's and 40's.
These were the greatest McDonald's commercials ever miss the old times through the 70s 80s and 90s, today's McDonald's Commercials Suck
I wanna go here. RIGHT NOW!!
RIGHT NOW!!
WHOOooooo
The voice of Mayor Big Cheese and the judge sounds like Ed Wynn.
When I was a kid, I longed to go to McDonaldland.
Most of these kids are in there 60s now.
Considering the gift certificates are 50 cents, McDonald's must have been pretty cheap back then
a lot of stuff WAS cheap back then
It does sound cheap, true, but to be fair, $50 cents was probably a weeks worth of pocket money back then. For context a regular burger back then would have costed roughly 20-25 cents. Nowadays a regular burger costs about at least a dollar or two.
i remember this video back in 2019
It was a trippy day in McDonaldland
the original hamburglar looks like a rat and I love him for that :3
Please do the McDonaldland commercial from the 80s
BirminghamBoy can you please make a McDonald’s land ad from the 90s and early 2000s
to be COMPLETELY honest i did do and will really really LOVE mcdonald's
The dislike are from th hamburgerler and people who didnt go to McDonalds land
The thumbnail is scary
Captain crook we can't sleep
Grimace we need some kookies 16:25 and 17:17
0:36 five nights at Fredtree’s
"My nephew was in that bag!"
Young uncle
Hamburglar's original costume kinda looks like something a serial killer would wear (especially the mask worn).
Brings back so memories when we lived in Daly City in the early 1970s. We used to go to the mcDs in San Mateo.
are ready School class is dismissed. but at McDonald's but New Hot Caramel. Warning don't this at lunchbag the Next Time You're gonna get it now.
what language are you using? Because it's not English, well the words are all English but they make no sense.
Now you should make a video of all the other McDonald’s commercials including the ones with only Ronald Mcdonald ones, the ones that feature the characters outside of McDonaldland and all of the others
The McDonaldland jingle is really catchy.
The sundae land commercial was after the pineapple sundaes were discontinued
My nephew is in that bag! 😄 haha
Has anyone ever had those McDonaldland fever dreams?
i had a McDonaldland nightmare
The ads that spawned an entire generation full of obese diabetics--of which I am one
Captain Crook is the only one who can understand the Hamburglar.
He helps Ronald McDonald on what hamburglar is saying
Everything had so much personality back then
I’m lovin it
11:32 Ronald broke character
(Realistic voice crack)
*DUHHHHHH WHERE'S THE COKE?*
16:29 Ronald...you ok buddy?
12:16 the one who loves the idea, *is* a chese burger
First commercial sounds very Beach Boy-ish.
I was hoping I'd find the commercial for the Christmas ruby-red reflector cups, like the ones for Halloween. But I guess my search continues.
Let me know if you're able to find it - I'm considering putting together an updated version of this compilation (this one is missing many commercials).
