1960s Folgers Coffee TV Commercials

[PoliticalMastermind0]

This is so fucked up in sooo maannny ways, I'm in love with it!

[klarinetta]

Instant coffee better than perked. Both are bad. In a percolator water goes over the coffee grounds over and over bringing out the bad bitter stuff.

[GodZiLRAah]

folgers coffee is nasty! i perfer target brand coffee

[ManzaWoman]

Wow! very long ads!

[nanlisa]

Or how about this: "On an all-new Dr. Phil: Men who cheat on their wives because the coffee at the offices tastes better than the wives'; and the wives who are desperate to save their marriages."

[maconsumner]

Yes, better than the girls at the office make, now, let’s get to work on improving your blowjobs, because the girls at the office defiantly got you beat there!!!

[nanlisa]

Or Steve Wilkos or even Maury: Harvey's wife accuses him of cheating on with the girls at the office because he didn't like her coffee. He also wants a lie detector test to prove that he's not cheating on his wife.

"That's a lie. You cheated over 50 times." (Maury)

"Harvey did not tell the truth." (Steve Wilkos). Harvey's wife then throws the cup of coffee into his face."

[nanlisa]

Ooh! What an insult! If Harvey were my husband, I'd tell my husband, "How dare you insult my coffee!" I'm surprised that Harvey's wife didn't throw a cup of coffee in his face.

[LivingMindfully1975]

"Now what am I going to do?"......well, for starters you could change that hairdo!

[pubear1128]

wow comercials back then were nuts

[xxxXGuNzXxxx]

I would beat his ass.

[WKRPinCINN]

it would be great if the women were like: "Fuck off prick! I'm gonna go see my man in the village and get off with his big thing! Get your own coffee prick!"

[BahamutEternal]

@WKRPinCINN Someones a little racist. ahahah

[HighPriestofLemuria]

Is it any wonder baby boomers are so batshit crazy?

[LivingMindfully1975]

She should have said "Well, Harvey, I will make a better cup of coffee when you grow a bigger penis!!"

[Deeznuwts]

@LivingMindfully1975 LOL

[DitkaStache]

What kind of bitch doesn't have good coffee for her man on his birthday

[tennespeedy]

Nothing worse than a woman who can't even make decent coffee.

[spib65]

Instant Creasote would have been preferable

[savere2006]

Great respect they had for women back in the 60's...

[bluecatky]

0:14 You know the girls down at the office make better coffee on their hotplates, and they give better blow jobs too!

[ChicagoFan32]

Wheeww....this commercial rieks of sexual prejudice lol. 

[TheXand19]

Coffee; the bitter foundation of a stable relationship.

[WhoShatInHere]

Wow the coffee this morning, tastes less like melted feces. What's your secret?? It's "Instant Folgers", tastes as good as fresh perked.

[14up0]

Is this Folger as in abagail (I think thats her first name, the heiress), who was murdered by the Mansons?

[BettinaBalser]

@14up0 Yes. Abigail Anne Folger was the daughter of Peter Folger, the then-president of the coffee company, and the heiress to the Folger fortune.

[TudorRose85]

She should slap Harvey  the ungratful douche.

[calimar28]

Those were the great old days! Men and women knew their place, and white comedy shows on TV. I miss those days :'(  *sniffs*

[ashekist1]

this cofee tastes terrable

[JohnRater]

are you really a gay man?

[jagman31]

Those were the good old days.

[nanlisa]

I'm surprised that she didn't belt him one just because he didn't like her coffee. Why didn't he marry one of the girls at the office if he liked her coffee instead of his wife's.

[flipgood89]

@nanlisa ...no surprise there was a sexual revolution inspired by dope, given the oppressive and simplistic culture of the 50s and early 60s..

[2Foxxy4U]

The first one was one of the worst commercials I've seen in my life. And I've lived through seeing 3 Twilight movies make it to theaters, and then DVD.

[izzysuzo]

are we really talking about coffee here ?

[MattieRydalch]

I'm glad I have more to live for from day to day than making someone "a decent cup of coffee".

[Nantchev]

Funking heck, a 2 minute long advert......

[Effedup]

Missing is the scene in between where he locked her in the bathroom and whipped her with the belt for failing her wifely duties....

[shrivel1]

Blimey, he's easy to please....

[fuhrman66]

now get in there bitch and make me a sandwich...those whores at the office like baloney if you know what I mean

[walleyrt69]

Wheres their Burkas?

[igykalen]

God I wish they still made commercials like this.

"God damn it Woman. WTF is wrong with my coffee!" ;)

[mewhor]

Isn't withholding love a form of spousal abuse?

[Somethingproductable]

Wow... Harvey is is dick.

And don't get me started on harold.

[CBooth007]

Haha...wow...this is awesome.

[CuteMcBeauty]

Wow, what a dick!!!

[jeeziss101]

instant coffee tastes terrible

[idolfan9495]

Instant coffee-ugh!

[SidewalkFrequencies]

Damn I thought he was going to slap her.

[zukazamammee]

gosh i miss these good comercials

[LOVE808s]

if commercials were this funny today than I'd actually watch television.

[oceandawn26]

I wonder how much Folgers this ad moved. I think it would have been just as effective if those wives turned to their husbands with a charming smile and said, 'I think my coffee tastes fine, darling, but if you don't like it try making some your own damn self." Then hubby goes out and buys great tasting Folger's crystals. Oh, wait...wasn't it against FCC rules to use 'damn' in primetime? Must be why they aired this commercial instead ;)

[sashkalitcheski]

lol sounds like he was probably sexin those girls at the office. prick.

[campbellnova]

WOW things were so different back then. I cant believe this commercial WOW They completely disrespected women back then.

[MICKEY4356]

It's all about the coffee? Who knew?

[1400deadwood]

Instant Folger's! The key to a good marriage ... LOL !!

[frednora]

1. Bad coffee seems to make Harold mildly autistic

2. I'd let Harvey "hotplate" me ...mmmm

3. WTF is up with the birthday candle in 0:40? It is 3 feet tall.

4. Why don't the women have names on the first commercial? Is their character known simply as "indentured servant"?

5. I wish bad coffee was the biggest problem I had to worry about.

[brainslow]

stupid woman. put some aphrodisiac on the lame ass coffee that you serve to him

[elc1960]

"Honey, I've been making your coffee like this since I found out just what it is you do with the "girls at the office", you philandering bastard!" (pours entire pot of scalding hot coffee in his lap) "Oh, by the way Dear - I've been having an affair with Dave, your golfing buddy. He doesn't mind my coffee, plus he has a dick like a baseball bat! Have a good day at work, Dear."

[elc1960]

I have a theory about '60s and '70s TV ads - whenever they would compare two types of a particular product, they would use two women: the "brand X" woman would almost always be a brunette, and the one representing the sponsor would be a blonde. If they were both brunettes or both blondes, the woman speaking for the sponsor would be prettier or sexier. These two commercials bear out my theory.

[cluescrollvids]

this young ladies are in there death bed now >.<

[ElectroWaffles]

i'll get some "coffee" from those girls at work.

[jancember]

If a stupid bitch like that can't even make coffee , She needs to be beat with a belt like you would a filthy dog till she learned her lesson. All women need a man to control them . It's for their own good . They are just not smart enough to make it own there own.

[TroyBilt007]

@jancember Hay...what rock are you living under??? You do know you're a total asshole don't you? The kind that 99.9% of women absolutely hate.

[jancember]

@TroyBilt007 What rock are you living under ,, You can't even spell hey . Moron !

[skllpirates12457]

@jancember

Are you some kind of abusive person or some shit?Cause what you are explaining is pretty fucked up for real.You must be rejected by woman alot?

[jancember]

@skllpirates12457 No, I have no problem getting women . Cause once you know how to train them ,The rest is easy. It's like owning a dog or a horse ,No different . They know who the master is and know they are lucky to have you.

[skllpirates12457]

@jancember

So as what you're explaining, you treat your own woman like a slave?

[jancember]

@skllpirates12457 well,, Yeah.

[Swift2001]

OMG. Instant Folger's is undrinkable swill.

[mcr251]

i think theres something wrong with the marrage if its based off of coffe....

[rascal211]

Back then a family could live on one income, the man going to work. So the women did household chores like making the coffee.

[rascal211]

I remember these commercials.

[SirCinnamonBoots]

Nice.

[alexp9999]

people who support this sort of behavior have lots to learn =/

and who would want to marry a robot anyway, that's just scary.

[Drivermatic]

So should the poor guys just lie? Give a guy a break, should he smile when he knows the coffee sucks. Should the guy lie about what he wants.........a good cup of coffee for his birthday? In 1965 these poor slob were slaving away while their wives sat home watching soap operas. All they want is a decent cup of coffee.

[wickedantionette]

@Drivermatic you sound like a real twat

[Drivermatic]

@wickedantionette Pretty much. To be more specific, I am an angry old guy who likes a good cup of coffee every once in a while. So instead of criticizing me, why don't you answer my question. Should the guys just lie and drink the crappy foul tasting swill their wives are passing off as coffee? Don't forget we're talking about coffee.

[NickFun]

Good coffee is the secret to a happy marriage??? Who knew!

[murderfase82]

Yeah bitch make a decent cup of coffe or I'll black your freakin eye!

[2muchreality4u]

I laugh at how different things are now. It is the women now that are acting like the guy in this commercial and they are proud of it.

[gli7utubeo]

Wonderful acting!

[hebneh]

Don't like the coffee, hunh?

See how you like THIS, you prick!!

[JohannaGotTalent41]

If that happened today they would get smacked

[lolgirly100]

Thumbs up is harold sounds like a little child :P

[oblivion85]

bytch this coffee is cold "slap"

[Sniffeh]

Wow that was sappy as fuck.

[jsilence418]

In the second commercial. the coffee is so good cause jean's lover jerked off in the pot !

[killianaka]

BITCH DON'T JUST SHAKE YOUR HEAD. EXPLAIN WHY IT HAS GOOD TASTE!

c: Made my day~

[Megido]

She's obviously a bad wife, or she would have made him a sandwich to go with that coffee.  Jeez... women...

[Tekena1200]

@Megido

Maybe coffing is new sandvich, yes.

[Megido]

@Tekena1200 You mean OLD sandvich.

[Tekena1200]

@Megido

Freakin' crap, your right. What do you think came before? Tea?

[Megido]

@Tekena1200 Yeah, I would say it was tea.

[beatitkidnow]

1:29 I guess it instantly appears in your hand too, uh???

[MyPersonalVendetta]

Bitch! You better make me a decent cup of coffee, or I'll beat your ass!

[mundotaku]

So, this are the kind of commercials that Don Draper did. XD

[anticorpration]

Now that you made a decent cup of coffee we can have sex! What a tool.

[anticorpration]

Hey the wife is played by EJ Peaker who was in the Odd Couple episode where they run into a girl scout troop while on a vacation in a cabin. and they rained in.

[hpmc9]

'Harold, is the cofeee all right?'

SMACK!!!

FUCKING BITCH, CANT YOU DO ANYTHING RIGHT?!?!

[hpmc9]

it was nice when wonmen werent afraid to show their inner stupid

[hpmc9]

"It'e better cofee than those girls at the office, but i'm still gonn fuck 'em"

[jodybird3]

you guys have no clue. Instant coffee was all the rage then!

[pjz1967]

I bet he knocks her around when theres no coffee at all.

[propatria431]

What a prick....

[eidius1989]

aggreed

[MsLittle1105]

@propatria431 Make your own fuckin coffee, asshole!!

[mangopowerade]

"You know, if I could just make a decent cup of coffee, I could relax.

I know!

I wonder if Harvey takes his cat piss with one lump or two."

[410boy]

hahaha!!!! HARVEY DISRESPECTFUL!!!!! "YEAH SO IS YOUR COFFEE TOO" lol. he got jokes!!

[bombbasticluva]

RIP Gibby Folger

[carlos1424]

I would have loved for Harvey to say it to a woman now...he would have ended up with black eye!

[eckomind]

Women back then looked beautiful and decent. I don't know if I could say the same about them now. :(

[xoxBrittyBoo]

I agree....just not how they were treated xD

[xxkoneko444xx]

that guy's kinda an arse...

[loonmaniac]

Great coffee, babe, now scrub the linoleum while I do you doggy style!

[thehand58]

now let's see if you can suck dick as good as the girls down at the office ,bitch

[Tinymoezzy]

Fresh perked wins but these commercials have me on their side. I LOVE THEM

[thebigtrg]

Is that Pace Picante sauce? Get a rope...

[kuroganeki]

Now, use the kids to make a business of better then fresh tasting coffee.

Child labor laws can suck it.

[mikamoo52]

amazing...

[queensrgt1986]

Abigail Folger was killed with Sharon Tate in 1969 heiress to this coffee,

[goldenrocks11]

rofl! i was waiting for him to beat her

[oblivion85]

wow talk about sexism

[weasalw]

@oblivion85 It's her duty to make good coffee, we all know that!

[THOMASOAKMAN]

I would have thrown the hot coffee at his face, and then smashed the pot over his head! and say" so would you like another cup?"

[carlos1424]

@THOMASOAKMAN i would have pissed on his coffee and then tell him later...lol

[jstudxxx]

lol at lochness

[LochnessMonsterx]

LMFAOO And he didn't even kiss me goodbye! After he spit in my face and told me the coffe HE bought tasted like shit, he didn't even kiss me goodbye! xD

[lebow1]

[NickFun]

My ex-wife made a great cup of coffee. It was everything else about her I couldn't stand.

[coolnerd444]

[hotsickle]

[MelanieLouM]

What the secret to this great tasting coffee, honey? I pissed in it you sexist mudderfugger...HAHAHAHAHA!! >:)

[SFConifer]

Best part of waking up is Folgers in your gut

[willkindrick]

hahaha! what a dick!

[rascal211]

Back then many women did not work so they stayed home cooked(and made the coffee) and cleaned house. it was a different life back then. One income was enough to live on.

[peace2baby]

Make your own damn coffee!!!

[hippiegalfromuncle]

I can just see these couples on Dr. Phil.

"Today on Dr. Phil couples whose marriage is on the rocks becuase of coffee."

[jancember]

These guys didn't know how to control the wives . Throw the shit in her face and tell her she damn well better make it right next time . Now get on your knees where you belong and see if you can blow me right , idiot.

[SandShinobi535]

Damn commercials were long back then

[Kristiniskool]

oh and thanks for posting! =)

[Kristiniskool]

Hey, all the girls in these commercials have short hair! That must have been in in the 60s. =)

[blackshogun77]

they need to put these commercials back on the air.

[cheyenne86]

This is the stupidiest commerical I have seen in a while.

[DPO263]

So true. Many of these old commercials of the 50's and 60's were totally sexist. BTW, remember THIS one? A woman and her husband would be boarding a plane and right in FRONT of EVERYONE, the woman cries out "My girdle! I forgot my 18-hour girdle! Oops! I have it on!"

[TheChristianView]

My gosh, thankfully the role of women has changed since these commercials were made!! The women are staying at home, worried about making coffee for their husbands....and notice the "girls" at the office are the ones who make the coffee.

[ladylike1980]

She should throw of boiling hot cup of shitty coffee in his face for his birthday.

The abusive bastard deserves to get what's coming to him.

[luvebug21]

@ladylike1980 thats right ^_^

[pistache7]

ha ha "Harwold hates moy cwaffy "!ha ha

ha ha ha ha ha ha......

[fcukupayme93]

funny shit  "harsh" lol

[PeaceChick07]

This is funny to watch now that I am in my mid 50's & things sure have changed!

[TheSanityInspector]

What an artifact from another age, thanks for posting.

[1959AverellHarriman]

Today, the sexes are reversed; it's the woman making the sexist remarks, but the men are supposed to maintain this falsehood that women are "victims" while men are being victimized by women. But no matter...sexism is still wrong, even if women didn't mean it when they said it was wrong (that is,when it was the men doing it, but perfectly fine when women do it to men); sexism is still wrong, even if the only reason the word was created, was to use it as a verbal attack weapon against men.

[WOLFNBEAST]

like the famous "grow a pair, will ya"

[Angeld974]

@1959AverellHarriman

1) This isnt the only country in the world...more women are victimized and have been victimized throughout history in men...hence why women are considered 'victims' was it men who didnt have the right to vote? Um no that was women...or were considered property no...I love how men take this attitude...yeah it makes a lot of sense, sexism was created as a word against men. Seriously? Are u an adult or a 15 yr old kid, cause no one can be this stupid.

[okiemama1]

those men would have to be drinking that coffee out of a straw for 6 mos!

[Rickstarbrown]

?? what do you mean? these men ..what do you care?you only dealing with me right?

Better be..

Or it will be you that has to drink thru a straw!;)

a big kus from okiepapa1

[okiemama1]

my husband would have to be seen in the burn unit if he spoke to me this way...thank goodness i have such a wonderful husband...and his fantastic coffeemaker!

[Rickstarbrown]

your coffee is the best wijfie you know it!

i,m missing it...and you of course!(as i dont want to drink my coffee thru a straw)

xxx

[cripplehawk]

He's probably banging those secretaries at the office.

[apachette07]

lmao at alix...I would've kicked him in the nuts...

[nyncompute]

She's lucky she didn't get a fresh one across the puss. Bad coffee..the nerve!

[jose65536]

How could this be happening??!!

[Cettie5360]

I'd break his damn knees. Make your own damn coffee buddy-boy.

[worthyprofile]

Aren't women supposed to be seen and not heard.

[despseekingsusan]

why yes, yes they are

[alix1962]

oh man, I tried to give a five-star rating but I think i clicked on two, i'm so sorry!!!:**(

[alix1962]

Holy Chit, he refused to kiss her as punishment for bad morning coffee! What would he have done if she had screwed up his coffee at his birthday dinner? Smash his cup and slash her face with it?? LOL, great commercial, thank you for posting!:-)
