  • I sent out for this two years ago and still haven't gotten my Fun Kit. I didn't get the post card back, so Mr. Belvedere is just a jerk then >:|

  • The Mr.Belvedere fun kit is going for $1,500 on e-Bay, I'd say that's a great deal!

  • All of that for free!??!

  • i got the fun kit back then .but i never sent for it.....?

  • What kind of  boner disliked this?

  • @stinu great comment. I'm guessing the boner who disliked it didn't get the "special surprise" on his birthday from Mr. Belvedere.

  • Oh My God :O you get an ID card? I wish this thing was still around...

  • I want to have Mr. Belvedere come to my party so he can fetch me a beer.

  • The Major Dad fun kit was better.

  • @LTHanzScheisse

    I was more partial to the Empty Nest fun kit.

  • You couldn't get away with fun kits these days. My kingdom for one.

  • I actually enjoyed this show, the 80's had a lot of good ones..

  • I had this fun kit. Came across the stickers and membership card couple of years ago in my parents' basement. The iron-on transfer was a picture of the cast dressed up in 80s punk attire. Always wondered why the mom from this show went for such older men... Bob Uecker in this one and Rodney Dangerfield in "Ladybugs."

  • sounds like a commercial that would have been shown during a Saturday morning cartoon block

  • This made my day.

  • I have a friend who was a member of this fun kit "fan club" and the special surprise he got for his birthday was a computer generated "congratulations on it being your birthday" form letter that was printed up on paper that had been pre printed with the signatures of the cast on it.

    Looking at it today it's actually rather funny because it was such a transparent attempt at drumming up viewership for a show that was long past it's prime in 1989 and by all rights should have died after season 5

  • I sent away for this 3 weeks ago and I still haven't received anything :( I WANT MY FUN KIT!

  • Hahaha, awesome. I own a '63 Plymouth that most everyone around my way knows as "Mr. Belvedere"...

  • LOL,thats funny,I wonder how many kids joined it.

  • MR B funkit!

  • Thanks for posting. Long live Brocktoon!

  • haha I bet making a Mr Belvedere fun kit 2010 edition would make massive money, too bad I renounced to being rich :D

  • john stewart could use this as one of his "moments of zen."

  • listen close the music is a crazy sped up rock version of the TV theme.

  • this is the shit!! 80s rock

  • Oh man, how much would hipsters pay for one of those Belvedere logos?

  • @DejectedPandora

    You've inspired me to buy as many as I can so I can sell them at $60 bucks a pop to said hipsters. Thank you!

  • awesome... I am now going to send this link to everyone and when they click on the link...

    YOU'VE BEEN BELVEDERED! Great stuff awesome commercial... I remember back in the 80s and 90s all the shows had fan clubs and commercials like this. It's not really odd at all.

  • Dear supercruiser72,

    Clearly I also believe that the video is awesome, since i posted it, you blithering jackass. And seeing as how you seem to enjoy it, and wouldn't be able to unless I posted it, perhaps you could refrain from referring to me as a moron,....just a thought. This commercial is, quite literally, strange. However, this fact does not detract from its awesomeness, rather it enhances it. In fact, It's much more awesome than "heck" as you so childishly put it. Now shut up and enjoy.

  • hahahhahahahahahahahahahahaaaa­hhahaahahahahahahhahahahah Earthcircle, you tell him! thanks for posting this. made my day!

  • I think they needed your age because if you were over the age of 7 Mr. Belvedere would send naked pictures of himself on your birthday and if you were older than 10 he would leave you obscene messages on your answering machine

  • lmfao

  • *runs to get a post card*

  • A Mr. Belvedere iron on t-shirt logo!?! And I thought I was the bomb with my Nestle quick shirt. If I only knew!

  • a heavy metal cover for the Mr. Belvedere theme song? oh shit! I gotta have that song!! oh shit oh shit I need it!

  • i want my fun kit

  • Amazing.....how do people find this stuff?

  • I had mentioned this back when i posted it, but there's a shit ton of comments between here and there now - this was buried on a old vhs i had of recorded television from the late 80's. It is quite real, as maddening as that statement may appear. It aired back in 1989 on Boston's Fox 25 during an episode of The Super Mario Brother's Super Show. I'm just glad everyone seems to be enjoying this foolish video as much as i do. It's ridiculousness is beyond measure.

  • I liked this show in the 80's but this commercial creeped me out!!!!!!

  • Holy crap. What do you think the chances are of one of these puppies showing up on eBay?

  • kind of a creepy commerical..........especially since it requests that the child submit his/her age...

  • everyone knows that kids love Mr. Belvedere

  • The "special surprise on your birthday" is that Bob Uecker comes to your house and kills your cat.

  • Yeah, well, it wasn't that much fun...

  • SHOOT ME NOW!!!!

  • OMG

  • probably the most popular Bob Uecker trading card ever

  • I never knew about this and I loved that show.

  • This is brilliant. This is absolutely brilliant.

  • Belvedere looks like a porn star.

  • I wonder if they have the "Dexter" fun kit ?

  • lol

  • to tear the flesh

    to wear the flesh

  • i just came.

  • LMAO!

  • Wouldn't it be awesome if this offer was still valid?

  • has a kid every said "oh boy" in the last 50 years?

  • ... the catholic church?

  • sounds very much like it

  • THE MR. BELVEDERE FUN KIT?!?!

  • Comment removed

  • it's called a saxaphone.

  • yeah, too bad the GUITAR comes in right after the sax.

    nice try at being a witty asshole

  • holy shit O.o

  • There's something creepy about an unmarried, middle-aged man being promoted as a "hero" for kids.

  • Now that you mention it, Mr. Belvedere does look a little bit like John Wayne Gacy....

  • I'm too young to remember for sure, but was that even a kids show? I don't think it was a kids show.

  • It was a 1980's "family show", so just for kids no, but partly for kids yes.

  • I just remember my older siblings wanting to watch it, and me thinking it was incredibly boring.

  • I must have this! I hope that address still exists.

  • I have the Who's the Boss fun kit

  • That's funny,

    I have the Homicide: Life On the Streets fun kit.

  • I have the Murder She Wrote Fun Kit.

  • Who was that Tommy wanted for his birthday? G.I. Joe? He-Man? Thundercats? Oh, wait, it was MR. BELVEDERE! Oy vey...

  • hahaha...love that electric guitar version of the theme song

  • Some music major went to an interview and then auditioned to play that riff. His parents are proud that his college education paid off finally!

  • Okay, I should want to send away for the Mr. Belvedere fun kit...I should not want to cut into him, to tear the flesh, to wear the flesh, to be born unto new worlds where his flesh becomes my key.

  • Are you kidding me? I know the 80's was great and cheesy but thank God I was just turning 13 in 1989 and hadn't started doing drugs yet.

  • It had to come with a copy of the theme song! IT JUST HAD TO!!!

  • I totally want one of those!

  • Sorry, it does not come with a self-ejaculating butt plug

  • LOL!!! This is so funny! I can't stop laughing! Why is this so funny? Why?!! XD

  • I'm surprised I never heard about this.

  • I thought the special surprise on my birthday was going to be a phone call or a letter... instead Mr. B showed up at my party. It was great!! Until he all drunk a cupped my father's left pectoral and whispered "let's put some streaks on the china"

  • Fuck, that's just what I wanted.

  • This is so genius! Thanks you, thank you, thank you for posting...

  • When i found it on an old tape, i really had no choice but to post it. It was as though the sky opened up, God came down and compelled me to post this video, saying in a calming tone "this is the exact reason youtube exists...go forth and spread the word". Its very much my pleasure, thank you for enjoying it.

  • Oh man, I mailed away for this! I even found my ID card a few years ago. Never got my birthday gift though...

  • THE MR. BELVEDERE FUN KIT?

  • what?!?!?!

  • Does it come with the lynn belvedere decoder ring?

    There's a change in the status quo, bitches.

  • What kind of articles did that newsletter had?

  • THAT

    IS

    AWESOME!

  • wow u don't see 50's marketing like that anymore in the 80's that stuff ended

  • thats exactly what I was thinking.. actually this marketing strategy was used in the early 20's in comic books, such as in "Tin-Tin" comics.

    But seriously, Mr Belvedere Fun Kit!? thats kinda lame, I never thought kids were all that crazy for Mrs. DoubtFire... errr I mean Mr. Belvedere.

  • That is the most 1980s video I have ever seen.

  • Trying to watch Mr. Belvedere! -Stewie Griffin

  • I'm totally getting the fun kit. All the chicks will want me then.

  • hmm... maybe.

  • And this is why the 80's had to end....And yeah he freaked me out as a kid too.

  • All I remember about this show is the episode where the little kid's buddy with the glasses gets AIDS and the family is afraid he got it from the other kid because they shared mad sodas with each other.

  • TOTALY! I remember that one. The kid won't drink soda after that. He goes through withdrawal, gets the shakes. Then when his friend dies of AIDS the autopsy concludes that he got it from a toilet seat. The kid is like "shhhew!" then cracks open a cold soda

  • Strange...

  • wow, and then what? I cant wait!!!

  • Yea! The 80'S! Bring it!

  • This is the best video on YouTube.

    Totally fucking serious.

  • I came!

  • Me too, you wanna IM?

  • I remember as a kid Mr Belvedere scared the bejeebers out of me.

  • I'm sending a postcard to that address tomorrow.

  • right!!!!

  • I want that fun kit so bad!

  • On my birthday, Mr. Belvedere came over and cooked my family a meal. There were drugs in the beef stroganoff and my parents fell asleep. After that, Mr. Belvedere started showing me naked pictures of himself.

    I'm sorry, I can't go on...

  • That better have been you greatest childhood memory, or I will beat you with my shoe. I swear to god, Timmy, I WILL BEAT YOU.

  • This is the first I've ever seen of this, and I executive produced the friggin' show

  • You just became my greatest american hero.

  • to tear the flesh, to wear the flesh

  • the alf kit was better

  • I was a part of the club. It was cancelled soon after. Damn it.

  • the birthday surprise is a cheese sandwich!

  • No way!

  • What the hell!!! I sent them my information back in August, it was my birthday today. I did not get anything! DAMN YOU MR BELVEDERE!!

  • Mr. Belvedere was supposed to be a family comedy and it looks like to me, they really tried to get the family to watch.

  • ITS A WRAP! IM WRITING 2 DAT ADDY QUICK!

  • F*ck Yeah!

  • Has anyone tried sending a request to that address?

  • i did...in 1987

  • WHOA! That looks KICKASS!

  • Jesus. Who wants pieces of fucking paper and a crappy manufactured card for their birthday? Oh boy!

  • Oh boy! I'm so hungry, I could eat an octorock!

  • You forgot about the iron on's asshole.

  • The girl in the commercial almost looks like Devyn Puett from "Kids Incorporated", don't you think?

  • what kid enjoyed mr. belvedere?! well, i sorta did.

  • The kids in this commercial have to be the worst actors I have ever seen. If I had heard this announcement, I would be hi-fiving anybody with functioning limbs.

  • I don't know if this is real or fake I do know however, that this is hands down, one of the greatest things I've ever seen. I'm definitely writing to that address

  • I assure you - this is definately real. It aired back in 1989 on Boston's Fox 25 during an episode of The Super Mario Brother's Super Show.
