@@mrawesome3915 I saw an opening with the first commercial which was for diet pepsi free. To make things better there was one with Micheal J Fox, I think it was for diet pepsi.
i remember my dad telling me how simple things were in the 50s i showed this to my daughters and told them how much simpler things were in the 80s lol they still wonder how we lived without the internet and i phones lol
The 80s just a wonderful time to be alive. I feel sorry for the people who were born after that. They will never know the joy, happiness and love we felt growing up in those days.
Wow, two edited Dave's Archives videos in a week! We must be living right! Kinda makes me miss being ten years old, and realize how much the world has changed in the last 35 years.
It's been a really rough ride living through the early years of Taco Bell when it was known for being cheap, and going there now. My kids will never know the old school cheap taco bell
Ah, the 80's. Kids these days could never understand that those were truly a different, better time in many ways. People keep trying to bring the 80's back, but it wasn't just the music or clothes, it was a feeling, an attitude. We have lost that.
the cal worthington ads made this whole tape worth it! (and the audio seems to be clear enough to hear what the slogan is actually supposed to be, haha.)
Oh man, i remembered a lot of these, but the anti-smoking PSA at 2:36 had totally slipped my mind and i didn’t recognize it until it got to the chorus, then suddenly the nostalgia hit me like a brick and i was instantly singing along… Thanks Dave for the bittersweet memories 🥲
Mid 1980s 1984 1985 1986 were probably the BEST years of that decade movies...tv shows...music..pop culture and fast food like taco bell in those days you drive by those fast food and smell the aroma of the food cooking today you don't get that 60s 70s 80s everything was made right and tasted fresh and hot.
These really are awesome. Being a kid who grew up during these times it truly is a walk through the past, and I love it. Recently my tastes have become more Retro than new. I've been watching movies like the Dirty Harry series, the Death Wish I-V series, many classics from the 70's, some 60's Eastwood Westerns, and a lot of the 70's action/adventures, Sci-Fi, comedies, and 80's movies of the same genres. Some older horror classics like Jaws never get old, National Lampoon's Vacation, Stripes, Apocalypse Now, the Godfather, and more. I've loved these movies since I've initially seen them. Now I get to see the commercials from that time too and see all the great stuff we had, saw, watched, and played with. These really are awesome videos.
Go See Cal Go See Cal!!!!!!!! I always thought the song was saying something other than "Go See Call". I cannot type it here what I thought he was saying.
I love watching these commercials that were made in the 80's!!! It takes me back to my childhood!!! I was born in the 70's and then the 80's was my teen years!! And I love it that I had the opportunity to enjoy the awesomeness of the best time to be alive!!!!!!!!? Lol " The 70's and 80's had the best movies!!!!" And music was awesome and Amazing 👏 🙌 😍 ❤!!!!" And for my rocking out years!? Head Bangers Ball!!!" Was what you looked forward to watching!!!!!! Lol " Oh yeah! That's when MTV Had Videos!!!!? And the music that we loved!!!!!" Lol " God bless you all today 🙏 Pace out
Thanks so much for posting these! Not only do the 80s bring back great memories but I was in the Bay Area for college when these commercials were airing. My question is….did you tape all these yourself back then? I also have a collection from the Bay Area back then. I’ll post one of these days.
This brings me back to the days of hurrying up and dial the number off the TV to buy the product posted on the screen lol fantastic! Especially on the convenient landline phone!!! There wasn't no internet if you wanted something it was either shop at the mall or watching info commercial hoping you jot down the number 🤣🤣🤣🤣
OMG! You have a commercial from a part of my childhood I haven't seen in forever. Way back when we had this....SELECT TV. There was also HBO. Select TV was the first "cable" type network or movie type subscription Box. There was a key for parents, because at 10pm, Select TV's Nite🦉Owl🦉Theater came on.😀 If you were interested in "adult" type movies, they had them. Not XXX, or any hard-core porno movies, but enough where if you say 13-17 you were going YAHOOOO!!!! LOL. Wow I haven't seen or even thought about Select TV until I saw your channel. They weren't on 24/7. They came on at 7pm central time and played 2 regular movies, then one Nite🦉Owl🦉Movie, then on weekend maybe another naughty movie and one more mainstream movie. Usually went until 2-3am. During the week after the 10-11pm Nite🦉Owl🦉they'd have one more decent movie. Usually a good R-rated action or something violent or maybe gory. I can't remember 100% specifically their schedules but it was a great experience for a young boy...lol.
These were definitely a great selection of 80s commercials. Very vibrant and exciting. They also felt a bit like the 90s in some parts. My guess some of the aesthetic was slowly fading off them. Nevertheless I can see where the early 90s commercials got it from with the great jingles and adventurous feeling.
19:20 Orson Bean on the voice-over for Lucky supermarkets. 21:34 Jake Holmes sings about chewing gum. 29:46 Dave "Reuben Kincaid" Madden tells us about Flintstones vitamins. Classic jingle, too.
I particularly liked the fact that 80's ads were flaming obvious that they were trying their marketing tactics on you. "real customers" haha. Everything was so contrived, but direct. "Buy this, we said it's good and so do these people" Ads now are insidious & often perceived as ambiguous/innocent, but there is a lot of hidden messaging there.
R U kidding??? How old are you? It was a restaurant with an all you can eat soup and salad bar and man I miss that place in NYC 😢 The closest thing to it is Ruby Tuesdays...
I'm not that person, but there's probably someone in the comments section who knows exactly who won that Best Actor In A Comedy Series Emmy without looking it up. I'm just going to guess Micheal J. Fox got it because he was big in the 80s. 27:32 - 27:38 That's kind of funny because Unisom is still around, while I've never heard of Sleepinal.
Aaah memories.....Many of those older stores, Circuit City was a decent one. But the commercial? A 19" 📺TV📺 not the 70"🖥TV's🖥we know and love now...lol. As I said, some things that have "improved" have improved. It's too bad with all the epic TV's we have that movies coming from Hollywood have not also improved. Some yes, but most have followed the "political agendas" that these movements have been following. This is why I think the "Retro" craze has become so popular. I've started buying 60's & 70's 📺TV📺shows and movies. I've been getting into retro gaming. The Genesis, N64, SNES, NES, Sega Master System, etc. I've enjoyed older Clint Eastwood and Charles Bronson action adventures and westerns. The Dirty Harry series, EPIC! Another great series, Death Wish I-V, 10 to Midnight, the Mechanic, and some others, Walking Tall, and classics like Smokey and the Bandit, Cannonball Run, amazing 📺TV📺shows like M*A*S*H, Emergency, and some corny shows like Dragnet 1967-70. As I've mentioned I grew up in the 70's. A teenager in the 80's, these times for me were EPIC! I have some absolutely incredible memories and adventures. Wonderful experiences, and a more than a few amazing memories. These bring back many great times! Thanks again!

The Mid 80's were just a wonderful time to be a live with Michael J. Fox being in pepsi commericals , thanks for the memories Dave!!
loved the "Top-Gun" style pepsi ad at 0:32
@@alexgeorge501 they had a Pepsi ad on the Top Gun VHS tapes back when they came out.
Marty: I'd like a Pepsi Free

i remember my dad telling me how simple things were in the 50s i showed this to my daughters and told them how much simpler things were in the 80s lol they still wonder how we lived without the internet and i phones lol
Because that's all the hell they know...and too stupid to try something else
Yes.
Tell em, We didn't live. We survived ✊
I was totally one of the 10 million Flintstones kids. As always, thanks Dave!
The 80s just a wonderful time to be alive. I feel sorry for the people who were born after that. They will never know the joy, happiness and love we felt growing up in those days.
Yep. Cell phones and the internet are both the best and worst thing to happen to humanity.
What’s so funny is that the commercials don’t exaggerate that much…the 80’s really were that happy, energetic, simple, and fun.
I loved the Dire Straits-looking anti-smoking ad lol
*These commercials instantly transport me back to simpler, happier times.* 💜
"Circuit City's grand opening sale." Wow. That's something else, for sure.
I miss the jingles in almost every commercial back then. It made the ads memorable. I still remember all of them. 🙂

Yeah, they need to move that decimal point over one space to be closer to today's prices: .99¢ to $9.90 😦
@@juneberry1982 🤣🤣🤣😪😪😪
I remember most of these commercials. The Time one, the Pepsi one promoting Top Gun, we are Flintstone kids and so many others..again thanks Dave!
How sad is modern society today that we find more happiness and feelings of normalcy watching 1980s commercials?
Nothing better on a Sunday afternoon than taking a nostalgia trip!
Wow, so Circuit City began and ended in my lifetime...
Ah, the 80's. Kids these days could never understand that those were truly a different, better time in many ways.
People keep trying to bring the 80's back, but it wasn't just the music or clothes, it was a feeling, an attitude. We have lost that.
like being racist?
The 80s.....back when a stick of Wrigley's spearmint gum could change your life and make you happy. Those were good times
Wrigley’s must have sold incredible amounts of gum considering their advertising budget. Their commercials were on all the time.
Holy smokes... the diet Pepsi commercials (especially the fighter pilot one), pop secret, the memories!
I love ❤️ the 80s
the cal worthington ads made this whole tape worth it! (and the audio seems to be clear enough to hear what the slogan is actually supposed to be, haha.)
I vote for Bronson!
We're so happy now we do the dance of joy!!
P.S. Go see cal Go see cal Go see cal🤣
That first Anacin commercial was brutal. I thought they were headed for divorce court. 😂
I like these commercials from 50’s, 60’s,70’s,80’s and 90’s thanks Dave

The "Nancy" of Time-Life actress is one of my great TV commercial crushes (thanks to that and many other ads).
Timely first commercial with the Top Gun sequel being released.
pepsi should re release it and just cut out pepsi free part at the end
Oh man, this brought back memories of my dad and i, at the ballpark watching a game, slurping down our cup o’ noodles. Good times.
In the Nissan ramen noodles commercial K.I.T.T. from Nightrider is doing the voiceover!!! That guy definitely had a distinctive voice.
thats tasters choice Colombian select commercial beat was insane 🔥

HOLY CAL WORTHINGTON! It's like Christmas in June!
Back in the day $15 or $20 could feed a family of four or more and nowadays it’s that per person.
And quickly getting worse.
I was born in 75 so I was 10 or so when these came out. I moved from Clearwater Florida to Bensonhurst Brooklyn in 1984
I was also Born in 1975
Commericals peaked in the mid to late 80s just like the music video. It was a great time to be a teen and we didnt even know it
True. You don't know how good you've got it until it's gone.
Gotta love Tony Todd in the taco bell commercial... wow he was young! Yet another awesome collection!
He sure was dressed fresh too. Glad he found that dollar 😂😂😂
Gotta start somewhere.
When you can remember actually watching these when they aired.

Epic Sizzler jingle 😆
I haven't heard that Flintstone's vitamin jingle in full in prolly 30ish years. Very nostalgic.
Tony Todd is the Tacoman and not the Candyman for once in the Taco Bell ad.

Was Pepsi Free good? I was born the year Crystal Pepsi came out lol
It was ok. Not as good as regular Pepsi.
I was the house in the neighborhood who had “diet” everything so it had to be good.

Acid reflux.
The amber vision commercial with the diagram of the harmful rays NOT going in her eyes but the rest of her body… 🤣
