Wait, so how did you get hired? Do they put flyers on places and did you go to where they flyers said to go, and they saw how good you are at acting or something like that? Because I want to be in a commercial.
God, I still reference "the colors duke, the colors!" Thanks for uploading this, now all of my younger friends will finally know what the hell I'm talking about. XD
even to this day... as in like 5 minutes ago, any time someone mentions 'the colors' i say 'the colors duke the colors!' which is what led me to finally showing my canadian husband what i have always been talking about and watching your video.
You're the actor in these ads? They used to air them all the time on Cartoon Network, Disney Channel, and Nick back in the day. They always made me LOL. Thanks for being a part of a lot of childhoods..
questions , one what do you look like now, and two.. did you actually enjoy those popsicles as advertized and three a statement of awesomness that you're on youtube now.
Those PopSicles commercials are cool about a boy and his talking dog who probably is way smarter than him. Too bad, they don't make these commercials anymore.
Were you given an actual popsicle, or a resin replica? I can imagine after take after take, the real one would be pretty melted, and shot continunity would be a pain in the ass, as little as one popsicle looks different from another.
Now I can say I commented on the youtube video of a commercial legend from my youth. To this day I still sometimes belt out "The Colors, Duke, the Colors!" at inappropriate moments.
HAHAHAHAHAAHHAHA dude i had to be ten when this came out, im fuckinng oldd noww! the colllourrrs duke hahahahahah. WOW john thats really you?! how old where you how old are you now!
hey man! great job! you have a place in 90's pop culture.. soo awesome... i was wondering, (random) if you know where to find images or commericals perhaps of the popsicle era when they had images on they sticks,, it was a kid surfing i think,, and you had to puzzle it together as you collected the sticks... not a big deal in the least if you cant help,, just curious is all.. great commercials!
Ahh memories...I've had all 3 of these varieties and they were all great! My favorite was the Sherbet Cyclone...I don't think they make these anymore though :(
This is why I love the Internet. I googled a phrase from a Saturday morning commercial that I was sure nobody but me remembered, and I wind up with a video of it AND commentary from the guy who starred in them.
Great job, sir; it's like 14 years later and I still remember THE COLORS DUKE THE COLORS.
hah, these commercials cracked me up back then. never thought I'd run into these again. luckily, I was browsing kotaku today. also, what're the odds that the uploader happens to be the very same guy in the commercials? crazy stuff, man.
These commercials were so weird, they totally blew my mind back then. What are you doing these days? If you were 14 back then, you're right around my age now.
Hell yeah man! I remember those commercials from my childhood. I also remember begging my mom to get me the damned cyclone. Also remember finally getting them and spinning in circles while eating it. Haha good shit.
finding this video just reminded me of my awesome 90's childhood. thanks john! for some reason your commercials were a very memorable part of my childhood hahaha or at least a nice memory trigger.
@johncro13 you are a legend man thank you so much for upload these commercials that I've seen as a child they really remind me of the good old day thank you
wow i remember these! i was little at the time, but it was one of those memorable hyper-speed type commercials that were so popular in the 90s XD never thought i would meet the person who acted in them on youtube! lol
wow. that is SO classic. xD And you were the guy? That is so awesome. I was going to comment on someone's deviantart that I loved the colors, when the memorable line came to me:
"The colors, Duke, the colors!!"
So obviously you did very well if people still remember this commercial however many multiple years later... :)
Holy shit! I didn't realize you were actually involved with the videos! That is SO AWESOME! You were such a weird prominent part of so many people's childhood and adolescence in the 90's! So awesome! Thanks for uploading this video for reliving! <3<3
You sir have been quoted in many childhoods. Including mine. I'm glad to have a name now to attach to "that funny, crazy kid in those Popsicle commercials."
Oh man, I can't believe these are online! Apparently the line "I'm colorblind, kid" is so oft-searched on Google that it shows up in the search bar. Thanks for posting these...definitely takes me back to watching Nickelodeon in the '90s.
The other night after a bit of drinking and debauchery I started imitating Duke. It took everyone a minute or two to get the reference (if they did at all). You should be on celebrity poker.
I thought i was the only one still saying "the colors duke the colors". Now I can finnally show this commerical to people who do not know what i am talking about.
Just wantted you to know that your catch phrase isstill being said (atleast by one other person)
Sweet! I say that all the time "The colors Duke the colors!" and no one ever has any idea wtf I'm talking about. Now they will know They will ALL know. Muahahahaha.a....
I just love the way you said, "THE COLORS!" the last time. I... I think I'll make it my ringtone.
Thank you for uploading these! I love being all nostalgic with other people!
These commercials were so simple, but hilarious. (Even more now that I'm older)
Also, I got those Sherbet Cyclone Popsicle religiously from the ice-cream man.
