80's Commercials Vol. 240

[DanZero77]

Michigan couldn't come up with a better one than " U R IT "? I like those 1-620,000 odds too

Seeing evil girls on Saturday morning ads? Preposterous? Almost as far out as PEANUT BUTTER AND JELLY POP TARTS

[gothamknight100]

The Snorks and Smurfs airs Saturday & Sunday mornings on the Boomerang network.

[SuperIllogical]

Every time I see the Happy Pals, I keep thinking of Aqua Teen Hunger force :P

[Tornado1994]

The reason why Snorks NBC bumpers are so rare is pretty simple: In 1985-86, they were on at 7:30 AM in the morning. I know this, because in my phone I actually have a DC comics ad of NBC's 1985 Saturday Morning Lineup uploaded which list the Snorks as on first thing in the morning. BTW, is it okay to fav this?

[junkyturd]

That excitement to wake up early saturday mornings to catch a new episode of your favorite cartoon is now gone thanks to the internet and cartoon network

[Jeff98177]

Among the list of names who voiced The Snorks: Nancy Cartwright (who later voiced Bart Simpson) and Jean Vander Pyl, who voiced Wilma Flintstone in the 1960s. Wow. Just wow.

[holbrooke7]

WOAH, Gospel Girl in that "One To Grow On" is kind of a anti-Semite!

[skystarless]

PB&J Pop Tarts sounds like it might actually be good. I wonder if they still make those. I haven't bought Pop Tarts in years because they taste like sugary sugar with sugar on top now that I'm an adult...

[orion5175]

I completely forgot about slush puppy, we had one in our middle school

it was always more water than ice with a squirt of juice but it was awesome

it might have been the way the old guy made them.

[blugreen123]

My fave Slush Puppy flavor was "Bahama Mama." Mmm, sugar rush...

[blugreen123]

I remember those McDonald's pails well. They were good toys for the sandbox & the beach

that Pop Tarts ad was amazing

I want a Princess Of Power! They looked pretty cool.

[Koide9]

The kid in the cereal commcercial at 2:15 was in an episode of The Golden Girls.

[scalabrine24]

90210 David Silver sighting at 6:34

[WebsterJake]

I remember the summer of 1986 (actually it's the very first one I can remember clearly). Great time to be a kid.

[jmkenned]

Who the hell is Thom Bray?

[80sCommercialVault]

@jmkenned He was on the NBC series "Riptide" when this aired. The "One To Grow On" spots featured NBC personalities, not necessarily well-known or bankable celebrities.

[m3trooper]

4:30 - the Hanna-Barbera bump is symbolic of my childhood during Saturday Mornings!

[zappandroger]

Those mini license plates were the shit.

[usa02]

I remember Slush Puppies, I wish they still had those in the stores. Plus, that's Casey Kasem v/o the bumpers for "The Snorks" and "The Adventures of Gummi Bears"

[BrettFavre107]

@usa02 I thought they still had them. I'm pretty sure they still have them in some Wisconsin Gas Stations.

[y0itzASH]

Aww Brian Austin Green how cute!

[kc86er]

I was born 4 days prior to when this aired!

[BanzaiM50]

Whoa wait, I can't ride Texas Tornado for 9.50, but then they tell me how cool it is. Damn them!

[Chad9976]

I like to google addresses in these old commercials to see if the stores still exist. The boots and jeans stores seems to be gone :(

[violetzebras]

@Chad9976 Google 2225 S. Georgia in Amarillo. Looks like they are still in business selling boots n' jeans after all.

[Jukesette]

I had that Crystal Swift Wing. Oh, the hours of fun I had on my front porch, playing with my She-Ra dolls. 

[MsFarzee]

Brian Green I LOVE him! I also love it when you post mid-80's Saturday morning cartoons...Thanks :-)

[troodon311]

I will confirm the awesomeness of the villainess girl in the Princess of Power commercial.

[GRaffPictures]

put a smile on....cuz i'm not loving it, mcdonalds

[darksilverdreams]

The girl in the 1st McD's Happy Pails commercial looks like Elisabeth Harnois.

Honeycomb sure did those license plates for a long time - I got one in '91.

[feverspell]

June 7, 1986 was my 4th birthday. So thanks for uploading these!
