I always experience these emotions when I watch one of your videos: 1) Excitement when I receive the email alert. 2) Shock in the form of "Wow, I can't believe they used to allow that" 3) Surprise at the discovery of an early appearance of a really famous actor when they were very young. 4) Disappointment when it's over and I realize just how bad I miss my childhood.
7:05 *singing to the tune of "I Need a Hero"* "I need a Big Mac! I'm holding out for a Big Mac till the end of the night! It's gotta be hot, and it's gotta be fatty, and it's gotta leave me feeling guilty till the morning light..."
Shasta-Interesting fact,the vocalist here is none other than Ministry frontman Al Jourgensen Fall Guy-good episode(for a second i actually thought they were going to kill off a main character) Peter Pan-looks like this ad was filmed on the set of the video for Tom Petty's"Don't Come Around Here No More" lol Sylvania-guy being stared down is Frank Ashmore a.k.a "Martin" from V Street Hawk-always wondered who would win in a race between him and KITT Flex-with Nicolette Sheridan Consenting Adult-"Youve GOT to let me be who i am!!"..hopefully they came around at the end McDonalds-how hard is it to forget the fries Macgruder & Loud-nowadays its not a problem for married couples to be police officers..
The WEWS guy looked as if "you want me to talk about a PIG THAT ACTS LIKE A DOG?" *pulls a Kent Brockman* That's it. I cannot work under these conditions. If anybody wants me, I'll be downstairs at McDougal's. Call the weekend guy, I don't care!

I miss the effort that used to go into composing some of these jingles. That Velveeta song was fucking incredible.
Skeletroy that Shasta jingle was pretty cool too.

That commercial was VERY Footloose inspired lol
GTE really brings back a lot of memories as a kid. Shame when they were bought out by Verizon.

that eagle is so handsome and majestic looking
John Goodman with a waist? Who would have thunk it?!
I believe Charlie O'Donnell was the announcer for the American Music Awards back then?

Bud Light must not have been a happy that Michelob light run a commercial on a show that they were sponsoring
Michelob sponsored it too: th-cam.com/video/4MWLLZA5dw4/w-d-xo.html
Also, Anheuser-Busch makes both of those beers
I forgot about Michelob being owned by Anheuser. I love the music playing during the AMA bumpers.
Shasta, the poor mans Faygo/Crush. Miracle Whip is much better than artery destroying mayonnaise.
Make's me feel sad because I was born in the 2000's, because when I was born in the 2000's society was fucked up.
sunny ; you’re not wrong. Society is definitely on the decline.
Every generation has it's good & bad parts. Just focus on the positive parts & ignore the negatives.
So sorry but you're not wrong, the 80s was fantastic as a kid!!
