Same here. Society today is a nightmare and Family Matters was able to just exist without being used as a political tool. Literally half of all my favorite shows were majority black casts and I never had to think, “hey these are black people I’m watching”. They were just PEOPLE.
@@ELH10622 Oh, no, you have to acknowledge that black people exist and that they're black. The horror! Also, claiming that racial politics didn't exist in the 90s is one of the dumbest comments I've seen in a while.
@Rolling Withthepunches You claim it's not an "I don't see color" comment and then follow up with an "I don't see color" comment. It's weird that people like you get so triggered when you're reminded that a black person is black. You have a real problem with it.
In the 90s we didn't know what we didn't have, and we didn't care because we didn't need it. Our biggest enemies were tobacco companies and space aliens. We had no idea how good we had it. These days we have it all and we are more depressed and lonelier than ever. Really sad what has happened to the world, just so that a select few can have a lot of money and power.
It’s probably been that way since the beginning. The elites have been running the world since the world came into creation. Maybe we were just too young to care. But it sure seems like a happier time.
Wow so many different types of American culture in a one hour commercial block. Wish American commercials were like this now, instead of vapid corporate stuff, crappy jingles, and forced emotional ads. Back then, the ads were fun, diverse, and not patronizing. I miss the 80s & 90s.
That "Gillette..The Best a Man Can Get" has to be the most compelling ad campaign in history. Even now, there's really nothing that comes close. We all know our world is a better place when men are strong but also loving and supportive. This commercial ended up speaking not just to men, but to any girl or woman who ever had a father, son or husband. And that song! Just perfection.
I was born in 80 too. We're the last generation to grow up without computers and cell phones. That's like people who were alive before electricity to us.
@@johnwayne3085 not necessarily, I grew up in poverty, which means I had hand-me-down Everything and didn't have luxuries like satellite TV service, internet service, dvds, or the latest digital gaming systems.

I still have vhs tapes and laserdiscs around to this Day because of it. As a result I ended up being one of those "old soul" kids that didn't quite relate to my fellow early 90s babies, and only got to hang out with the degenerate teenager 80s kids. Now I'm 28 years old, I have almost no friends except a few old dudes, and I can't relate to new people my own age because I have the music and entertainment preferences of a 45 year old man.

@@Chudchanning But the social aspect of your generation around you having all those things is the main point. It changes the whole generation and the living style of the one in it.

I feel like I am watching this commercial sitting in front of the old classic, no-remote analog TV or lying on the floor watching it late at night, even though this is my first time watching their commercials, the nostalgia hits me hard.
That gillet commercial was such a dramatic tune, saw this a bunch of times as a kid and always remembered it lol. I'm grateful every day that I lived my teenage years through the 90s. Was a lot of fun.
I remember as a kid watching Irish spring commercial every time my mother would buy the soap I thought you had to cut a piece off so I would get a knife and do the same as the commercial.
@@jamesb5737 I'm sure they did but I think my parents were wondering why I had a real knife in my toys. It does make me want to ask them what they thought about their soap being cut.
Now a days the commercials are like 70% smart phone or smart phone related, 20% auto insurance, and maybe 10% big corporate fast food chains. What we have today is a corporate take over.
That's because people buy from the big corporations instead of financing smaller businesses. Every time you buy something you're voting with your wallet. Stop voting for the bad guys.
To be fair, the News in America was never real. You just have access to information now so you can do your own research. Back then they had an information monopoly.
I really wish I was born in the 90s. I was born in 2001 (close enough, I guess), but some time in 2015 or so, I got this strange obsession with the 90s that's pretty much become one of my defining traits. Like, if I didn't tell you my age, you'd probably believe I WAS born in the 90s. I'm pretty much a 90s kid at heart, but that's not the same as actually being a 90s kid.

Is it sad or cool that we are all watching these out of nostalgia? I would say.. cool. I would say, I'd like to carry the joy and lifestyle that we like from the past and carry it into today, making it today. being wholesome starts with you. Not naive, but with contribution to your fate. I'd rather be a boomer than a doomer.
@ 24:50 REALLY?? Couldn’t find any better stock abbreviation than that???!!! Either that’s a Freudian slip or just a straight up deliberate message. Smh. Damn.
Watching the compilations is fun, but something I keep seeing in comments to videos like these are nostalgic depictions of the 90s as some sort of paradise. As with any era, nostalgia for it only remembers the positive experiences and forgets the negative ones. People actually living in the 90s saw the 90s as a grimy, immoral era full of gory violence, extreme politics, school shootings, terrorism, racism, homophobia, and general paranoia over the impending turn of the century. "Hey, it's the 90s" was an actual joke in some sitcoms and movies.
@@jr2904 No, it wasn't. Conflicts were as big as they always were. Whining about political correctness makes you sound like such a boomer. You're actually offended at the concept of not being a bigot, lol.
No. Life is very different on a social and cultural level compared to back then. Back in the 90's we still had the older christian generations that where healthy, patriotic and protective of country and human innocence. They're all gone now, and the generation that took over for them was the 60's generation. A generation that was inspired by socialism, rebellion and drugs. So in the 90's we had a nice mixture of the Old and Safe and the New and Rebellious. Now everything is just Rebellious.
Back when commercials were funny but not trying extremely hard to the point of cringe. All we see is way too many commercials trying too hard and doing nothing but making me wish I never saw even a quarter of it.
I'm just glad I wasn't of drinking age in the 90s. God the beer they pitch is straight swill. Keystone? Gross, haven't drank that crap since I was 19 and I'm 37 now. Gross. Give me a southern tier or lagunitas, something that doesn't taste like beer water.
