These videos hurt sometimes. It’s like the carefree life I had no longer exists. We were poor, but we were happy.
So were we Jeff. So were we. Single mom raising four of us on her own. But she always made sure we had fun. I miss the 70s and 80s so much. So much better than today's depressing reality. Peace.
that part
I agree jeff... let's leave this country.
Absolutely...I so miss those days 😢
Same here
These commercials bring back memories of your childhood when times were good,and your childhood was innocent
I miss these days ❤
Who else is skipping the TH-cam commercials just to get back to the 80's commercials?
Meeee😊
Watching and youtube casually slips a febreeze ad in on me.....
🤦🏻♀️🤦🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🙋🏻♀️🤣🤣
All of us a pain You Tube Ads get a few annoying like lots of pests we have to deal in this short life.Anyways we had it all a Song Key Largo by Bertie Higgins also there's a song by Australian Band Uncanny X-Men they said and sang we would be in 50 Years that was done in 85.Turn Back The Clock a winner by Johnny Hates Jazz was onto something 1987 what does that all say about the 80s and the emotions we all take in as people happy sad u name it
Sounds crazy but those were the best.
I Wish I Had A Time Machine 😫😭😫😭😫 I Miss The 80's
Best part of the 80's was the emergence of so much great heavy metal music
It's amazing how many of these obscure jingles I haven't heard in 35 years, yet I remembered every word.
I was a kid in the 60s, a teenager in the 70s, and a young adult in the 80s & 90s, best years of my life. 🍀
Yes the 80s was a great time 😊
Same here with your timeline. And wouldn't change a thing.
So true. Loved my life. Had a good family too.
@@aruglaempire2518 so true😊good times
80s ladies should be awesome pure fire...
Ohh the nostalgia. Such simpler times. The good ole days. 81 baby here
Better days, better times, better life. 😊 We actually had hope for the future back then
Calm down
Hope? During the Reagan era? Pfft, sure, go back to the 80's inspired tiktok clothing hauls, luv 🤣
@@avamasquerade Get out of here! Was better with Reagan go back to your dream that Biden is not going to get in to War World 3!
The 80s were soooo inexpensive I totally miss the 80s & 90s
You think it was but it wasn't
No it wasn't minimum wage was $3.10 in the 80's it's currently $15.00 in my state so no, it really wasn't!!!
@@mr.anderson6040 finally
@@mr.anderson6040 let me guess, you are like 20 years old and have no clue
OMG!!! THESE BRINGS BACK SO MANY GOOD MEMORIES, I MISS THE 80S THOSE WERE THE BEST TIME. EVERYTHING WAS SO LAID BACK.
I used to sing the Hefty bag jingle to my little sister. I would point at her and say wimpy, wimpy, wimpy and then point at myself and say hefty, hefty, hefty. That is my TED talk.
Man I remember these commercials, 80’s was the best
I’m soo proud to be able to live throughout the 80s
I don't normally watch commercials, but when I do, they are old vintage commercials.
@DavesArchives. Do these scams ever work?🤣
1985 is in my heart and in my soul. 😊
Agreed 💯
I was born
Class of 1985
Same for me only it's 1981. Always will be.
1985 was the most epic year ever. It was the year of Nintendo after all.
Man, best times. Food. Movies. Going out! Now it's all bs. We will never get back that time
Ray Charles, and Robin Leach man 1985 sure was a great time to be alive!!!
An unbelievably great year!
The decade that's cracked swept through American cities , the decade that saw 2 wars , towers.bomb , highest murder rate s ,
I was born in 1953 in San Jose and remember well these 80's commercials on local tv that I actually enjoyed watching compared to the boring ones of today. What a world back then when life was more happier in the Bay Area, California and the entire USA. Yah, it was not perfect but compared to the chaos of today's country, gosh, I wish I could go back to those days in the 50's, 60's, 70's and 80's. 🥰 Thanks for sharing, Dave!
Even though I don't remember these particular commercials, it still feels like deja vu watching them bcuz it takes me back to those carefree and creative days of the 80's. That's how it is with a lot of 80s and 90s footage. I don't care if I don't remember particulars. I still feel so safe and carefree watching them and going back in time. These days were the greatest times of you ask me. 👍😀80's I miss you dearly.☺❤
Young and carefree I miss the 80's as a teen.
I get an overwhelming sense of nostalgia looking at 80s commercials, because it reminds me of such a better time!!!
Man I miss the 80s so much simpler times
Wasn't simple
Man that Wendy's breakfast menu looked delicious! Stevie was getting it for that sparkling water! Still can't believe people were okay with Drinko something with 10% juice. 2 George Burns sightings! This was a good mix!
Farm fresh eggs, and fish flavored hash browns from the night before yum
Seeing Stevie Wonder in that Hansen's soda ad really made my night. He's one of my favorite musicians of all time. Know he licensed some of his songs to commercials. But never seen him in one before. Great compilation, Dave!
I know, right?!! I never knew that he did a commercial!!! I absolutely love Stevie Wonder and he’s one of my reasons for playing the piano 🎹 and to pursue music since I was a kid!!
Stevie wonder was my favorite as well 😊
What are the odds that I would run across a compilation of commercials from my childhood…FROM MY HOMETOWN!!!! August ‘79 baby, born and raised in Oakland, CA.
I was 8 in 1985. Wish I could go back just to get my Rad bike back
Loved seeing an ad with George Burns, THAT brings back great memories.
I want to thank the creator of this channel. This videos give happiness to many people. Including me.
I miss the atmosphere of the 80s of television so magical! Take me back!
Hefty hefty hefty!! Lolol….aw the good ol days!!! Can we go back? How do we make that happen???
Thanks again, Dave! The golden age of my life was from 1993-2000. In those short 8 years I lived about 6 life times. Beautiful days.
I remember watching these commercials on our B&W 13 inch TV with the wired clothes hanger as the antenna.I miss the 80's,those were the glory days for me as a kid.
Growing up in the Bay Area I remember some of these commercials…. Very nostalgic.
Wheres the Bay Area?
@@maxwellhurlock6285 sf
@@pacodeluciiaa SF? What does that mean?
Northern California
@@baloneyandcheese4062 I can tell that you’re really mature.
Me in 2023 walking into my local Ford Dealership:
I heard y’all had 1986 trucks for $123/month.
The aesthetics in so many of these ads and small attention to details are what really stands out to me. Look at the way today's ads are filmed, the way the people are dressed, and how loud and obnoxious so many of them are. They're just ugly to look at and even worse to listen to.
The calm tone in these ads really makes you feel better
Too true, today's ads are so obnoxious and unsophisticated, like advertisers are just so certain we're all simple-minded tools to be utterly pandered to now...
Once again Dave proves himself the inventor of the time machine! Thank you for another great journey!
I live in the Northeast portion of New York State and grew up in the 80s, most of these commercial seem to be Geared for the West Coast but still quite enjoyable and great to see, I sure do miss those times!
It's weird how genuinely hyped I get for new videos of old ass commercials.
I seriously want to know if anyone who won that Burger King $14,000,000 contest actually did or is still receiving that $1000 a month...
19:47 That guy must've sat down first, then they built the book fortress around him.
14000000= ~ $38888/month if it’s 30 years: $1000/month is only $12000/yr.
@@likesanddislikesetc ok Steven
@APJ's Experience I think most people understand that when a company offers a "$14,000,000 giveaway," that fourteen million represents the total amount of prizes, not that one person is going to receive fourteen million dollars. And you'd have to be a real dolt not to know that a thousand dollars a month for the rest of your life isn't going to add up to fourteen million dollars even if you lived for two hundred years after you win. What a lot of people might not consider or understand is that it's a thousand dollars _before taxes,_ which boils down to a measly seven hundred to eight hundred a month, and that that amount doesn't adjust for inflation. So even the winners might not be getting everything they think they're getting.
$1000 a month back then could get you that lavish life...
Nowadays it's barely gas money. 🤣
@Victor Creed to think...All my stepmom ever wanted for me back then was to grow up and marry a man who made a whole $20 an hour... Alas! Willful child I was I swore I didn't need no man! And I was right because some 30 years later, I'm finally making *my own* $20 whole dollars an hour. Have a lil faith in me, Mom...
Today is indeed the difficult times since the 2010's.
I wish that I can go back to the 1980's or even the 1990's and watch better TV shows, movies, play better video games, etc.
Back then wasn't perfect either but more simpler
Simpler times
Simpler times because you were a child. Snap out of it.
Simpler! You were young that's why ! Everything is better now.
@@gloriaortiz1227 Yes, in some way...but, some things in the past are better than they are today. Nothing is perfect even if things have improved.
I'm so glad I was a kid in those days. I miss them...
I hate commercials in general, but yet here I am watching a video of nothing but commercials 🤣 was mainly seeing if I remember any of these 😁
What a great flashback! Idk why, but this memory popped into my head. When I was in like 4/5th grade my dad recorded the Superbowl (Pittsburgh Vs Dallas) for me & my buddies because we couldn't stay up for it. The next day all my neighborhood buddies & I couldn't wait to get off the bus and go home to watch it. So all my buddies get over, my mother had left snacks & soda for all of us, we all get settled in...there was no Superbowl! It recorded the wrong channel or something, I don't really remember, but I remember all of us being so disappointed & I of course felt like an idiot. We got lucky though, one of my buddies found out his dad actually knew how to use the VCR correctly & had it recorded, so we did see it, but it wasn't as loose & fun of environment at the other peoples place.
Excellent! I'm a fan of eighties commercials and this comp has many that I've haven't watched since childhood.
Right now we are living in someone's "simpler times". In 30 years they will look back with fond memories.
I remember the 80s. When I really look back on it, via history, I see that things were only "simpler" for people like me - someone in high school who wasn't facing the real world yet. For my parents and grandparents, it wasn't really all that simple.
Fair point but I know a bunch of boomers would wish they could go back because it was, in fact, simpler than it is today.
Life has always been complicated, but our understanding of it was a lot simpler back then...
I’ve never felt so relax watching tv commercials 🤣🤣
3:04 - Ah, the days when your boss could give you a little help with your foot rub at work and not get an HR complaint. 🤣
George Burns stayed on commercials in the 80s. I remember that! 👍🏾💯 STL Cardinals
Love the Safeway and George Burns ads. Thanks Dave!!!!
me too! Safeway is our neighborhood store. also for those of us who live or lived in NorCal back in the '80s La Petit Boulangerie - later dubbed La Bou - was The place to grab a coffee, a croissant, or lunch. sadly i think there is just a very few La Bou's left.
I'd forgotten about Steve Landisberg! Haven't seen him since he was on Barney Miller ( one of my favorite shows).
Pepperidge Farm remembers
Wow....crown books...remember going to them and Walden Books when I was a child when visiting malls...
Malls? What are they? LOL
Hansen’s Soda flavors were so ahead of their time! So good but very difficult to find in stores back in the day. ❤ 1:41
The jingle alone is one of a kind💯 Legendary
Oh the memories! 📺 Thanks for another trip in the way back machine Dave! 👍
Wow! I don't remember Wendy's selling breakfast before the last few years.
Oh I do. Used to get it on the way to school
These commercials bring back amazing memories of the 80s junior high and high school. Riding motorcycles, having fun with all our friends making minimum wage 335 an hour, but still had money to buy the majority of things we wanted. What a simpler life then. I knew how good we had it the best music cool cars, cool motorcycles, great rock concerts , cool, hair and clothes ,and by the mid 90s all the above kind of just stopped and now everything is so expensive. It’s ridiculous ,but watching these commercials. Take you back long live the 80s.
Bring me too tears , so much done happened since these years , just imagine where everyone who died in the challenger disaster or 911 was when some of these commercials was playing
holy guacamole! i had to pause the video when the newscaster mentioned Humphrey the Humpback Whale. i remember it so well. he swam up from the Bay Area to the delta region of the Sacramento River. he was a cause celebre. & that jingle for the CA Fresh Eggs. what an earworm. plus seeing my favorite detective from the sitcom Barney Miller, Steve Landesberg, shilling cough medicine gives me all the right feels! another killer set Dave! thanks!
I miss these days! I watched another video that had many retro commercials... Such a treasure! thank you for this you have no idea how this makes me feel! God bless you!
Regarding the thumbnail: I swear KFC had the best-tasting nuggets I've ever had in my life back in the 80s.
@saboth I literally JUST said the exact same thing. I loved those nuggets, and no other nuggets ever came close. I’m a vegetarian now, but I still don’t understand why the nuggets NEVER ever came back.
I used to love the chicken littles 😅
I was just talking to my daughter about this a week ago. The nuggets were so good I wish they’d bring them back.
My grandmother mat a guy who worked for the KFC plant and had got a ton of the KFC Nuggets for free...They taste even better when you cook themself at home. Bomb
Yes!!! Nuggets were the best!!!
That Stevie Wonder commercial was WORTH it!!!!👍👍👍
Time to watch some wholesome 80's ads. A decade I was never born in😂😁😂😁😁😁😁😁😁😂😁😂😂😂😁😁😁
The good old days
Any 80s food commercial seriously reminds me of simpler times. I loved family dinners from places like KFC, which seemed like a huge treat.
Was I the only one, when I was young, that was confused as to why the "Hefty" name was never on the real bags when you used them at home? You saw the Hefty brand on the bags in the commercial, but never on the real bags.
I didn't grow up in the 80s. I'm a 90s kid and I love the 90s. Both decades of those commercials are so different than the garbage on TV today. Idk why they're so different, they just are and I love it! I wish I grew up in the 80s!
I miss Slice drinks, I loved them, especially apple Slice!
My mom used to call it Apple Splice. LOL. She loved it. Always had a big bottle in the fridge.
Always love these
Welcome back from the holidays, Dave. Onward to Vol. 500!
Speaking of the 1980's, how many of yall had Floor model TV that didn't work, but used it as a stand for the new TV you had to sit on top?
Or the TV knobs had torn off and you had to use pilers to turn the channel
Or slap the side of the TV with a shoe
Didn't have to worry about changing the channel we only got one channel on our TV
@@joeframe8144 One channel?? I thought everybody had three??
I was the remote control. 😂
.....still waiting for that Meatballs movie to start, abc.
I live in the Bay Area, so I’m loving that the commercials are based here, thank you.
ahhhhh 80ssssssss my Elementary & Highschool decade ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh
Yea i was only 2 by 1985 since i was born in 1983. Nevertheless I'll always appreciate the vibes because they did leak into the early 90s. Which is where some of the most comforting times of my life happened. Thank you for always supplying us with the good stuff Dave. & Stevie Wonder singing a catchy jingle is something i thought i'd never see lol
Same here, born in December of 83🙌
Sometimes for minute you forget these commercial are from 40 years ago.
I forgot Robin Leach did Burger King commercials so 80’s
Same, but you gotta wonder who won the contest, and if they are still alive getting their $1K monthly checks lol!
Commercials were much more interesting back than. My favorite was Coke is it with Ray Charles and Juicy Fruit.
I had a great childhood in the 70’s and 80’s. I remember some of these.
KFC was 1000 times better back then. The gravy was on point now it’s nasty. I personally avoid KFC much like I do McDonald’s.
Shiitt ALL the fast food was 1000x better back then 💯
I remember the 80s well as it was my best time ever, but I sure never saw Wendys breakfast until a few years ago. Strange indeed.
They flip flopped on serving breakfast for years.....nor sure why, they were good
Yeah, my wife worked at one of the first Wendy's in Ohio in high school in the 80s, and she hated the breakfast cause she had to get up early on weekends to work.
If you watch these old commercials enough you'll reverse your aging
Damn...I'm old. 🤣 glad to be a live in today's day and age.
4:10 Zenith - we invented TV stereo, but we think you should have to push a button all the time to hear it.
The best time of of my life
I'm from Kansas City & got to attend a World Series game. Unfortunately, it was one we lost, but loved when we went on to win the title.
Was a junior in high school in 1985,some of the best times of my life.
Man I miss KFC Nuggets , I don't know why they stopped offering them.
Because McDonalds made them lol just kidding idk why wished they were still around I was too young to experience them 😢 McDonald’s nuggets are pretty damn good too lol
Just a heads up....KFC is discontinuing "Hot Wings" and & "Popcorn Chicken"
You can’t buy an egg for fucking 99 cents today. FJB
Let’s go Brandon
20:04 This commercial starts actor James "Jamie" Widdoes, who later became a director. Most of his directorial work was for the sitcom "Two and a Half Men."
My body oozes nostalgia
Here's a few more I remember
Harry Hood singing you can feel good. Good about Hood.
Where's the beef?
Burger King's hold the pickle hold the lettuce
James Garner and Mariette Hartley for Polaroid
Bill Cosby for Jello Pudding Pops (little did we know)
Do NE of you remember a Winchell's commercial where it goes "Treat yourself better, treat yourself good, Winchell's treat you like everyone should". Then the commercial closes with the slogan "America's treat shop".
Oh my days!!! I fondly remember watching all of these commercials ✌️✌️✌️✌️👍👍👍👍
I wonder how many people will ultimately have broken laws and built or stolen time machines, just to relocate to this period...
I LOVE THE 80 COMMERCIAL ROCKS TOO MY FRIEND
Safeway... So nostalgic
I wish i can press rewind and go back to 1985 and 1986 when I was small
KFC's Chicken nuggets are THE best tasting EVER! Great Memories!
Goodness isn’t it great to see normal looking people doing normal looking things 😊
Yeah
What do you mean? What’s normal looking? Besides, these people were paid actors. Not a real slice of everyday America. Geesh.

@@Chief_Coco_Choo_Choo not where it’s at…but great point on the disintegration of our culture 👍🏻
nice to see some of these commercials that weren't part of the region i lived in. So they new to me
I love Dave's Archives!!!
Hefty did a real good job advertising- that hefty/wimpy jingle is still imprinted in my mind. 😆
