Just me...but commercials were MUCH better back in the day than they are now. I can remember the old Miller Light(Tastes Great...Less Filling) commercials from back in the 80's...they just don't get them like that anymore!
Ads like this were few and far between even back then. It required an agency with the creativity to create it and a client with the courage and sense of humor to ok it.
Did you know Barry Manilow actually wrote this song? Before he became famous, that's what he did. He also wrote for McDonald's, Burger King, Boston Market and Long John Silvers.
Everytime I see these old Dr. Pepper commercials back in the late 70’s, it reminds of the Seattle SuperSonics winning the NBA Championship in 1979! #BringEmBack
Let's see, that ad was filmed in: NYC New England Coast Mid West New Orleans French Quarter Rocky Mountains Texas San Francisco. I visualize this as being quite expensive to make.
So NYC- yes New England Coast- no( California coast)(Eureka) Mid West- no( central California) New Orleans French Quarter - Yes, during Hurricane Rocky Mountains - No, California mountain range. Texas- No, Bakersfield. San Francisco- absolutely I was 21 years old when I worked on these spots and drove up and down the coast of California and to New Orleans and NY. I saw David Naugton at Monsterpaloosa in Burbank California about five years ago and we hung out and talked about those times working on those commercials.
@@milesbrown2 Thanks for this detail! I grew up in Texas and was surprised even as a kid when these commercials hit the air. Dr Pepper was from Waco, after all (no dancing allowed!). That said, the company was based in Dallas by the time this campaign was purchased, shot, and rolled out.
That was sad but I have to say it was his own fault. In London Sherlockian style, he had put the pieces together, knew what his near future was going to be and did nothing to alleviate the situation. And left Jessica 5 a widow and without even so much as a child. What a jerk!
It was this ad that got him the job as a werewolf in London!

Yes it is just you. I don’t think the majority of Americans want to see corporations hocking their cheap products at us with full Broadway singalongs
Everything was better 😂😂
@Randomjackass135 nahh I would love that. I legit sing this tune when I get a dr pepper fr ha
Dang the fashion is amazing for literally eveyone I am loooking at in this commercial!!!
David Naughton also co-starred on the comedy series, "My Sister Sam" in the late 1980's, on CBS.
why can't ads be like this anymore?
peeps looked at it not for buying it but cuz yeah they were good but evne tho it was great they needed to fidn a way to make money

Would be a dude in a dress who has no non-porn related talents dancing around with kids. Thank a Democrat.
Agree

Dr. Pepper could've probably saved David Naughton from becoming a werewolf when he went to London.
Think I'll have me a Coke.
My uncle wrote the jingle.
Dang, he must be rolling in dough
@@RLucas3000He did alright. Died a few years ago, but he had a fairly successful ad agency and wasn't super rich, but as I said, he did OK.
im a pepper! :D
Me too!
@@harlanseago4876 Me three! 🌕
Does anyone know the ad agency that created this campaign?
I do.
This was created by the Dewey Cheatem Andhow Ad Agency in Berwyn, IL.
You're Welcome.
I miss spuds, pretty girls ,parties ,an people having a good time ,😢 good old days
HI
I can't tell if the city is Toronto or New York.
This was right before he went nuts in Piccadilly Circus and the coppers had to gun him down in an alley.
Um.. David Naughton's alive and well.
@@liveandwrite you don't watch movies, do you.

David Kessler sure was peppy before becoming bitten.
Hate Dr. Pepper, love this Dr. Pepper commercial.
Back when they put effort into advertising Soda's
I’m a megaton Dr Pepper 🌶 drinker and proud.
I’m a Pepper. . . just sayin’.
Oh yeah?
Prove that you're a Pepper.
These comments referencing AAWIL are sending me off the rails
Soda taste like crap !
Coca-Cola is more acidic.
I don't drink soda pop, as much as I used to. The fizz bothers me, now that I'm older.
No, it tastes like Dr. Pepper.
If it tasted like crap then it would be called Dr. Crapper...you should've known this already.
@@moonytheloony6516 Thanks for educating us....
LOL. So corny
So is your entire wardrobe but you still need to be you.
Not Woke ads back then!
You don't even know what Woke means....and I got news for ya, there was Woke ads even back then.
Do your research...
