  • 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.

    Damn, I feel so old.

  • I was feeling nostalgic to watch your old commercials.

  • classic

  • I used to think these would make me see fascinating colors... then I grew up and tried LSD

  • one of the most memorable commercials from my childhood. thanks for uploading it! 

  • Dude I remember this commercial I was like 3 or 4 years old lol

  • 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.

  • @dog6363 nope.

  • I have a question. Besides getting paid, did the studio involved with the company, give you a lifetime supply of Popsicle brands?

  • Down boy! Down!

  • 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

  • Holy crap, the nostalgia! Loved these commercials, good work, man!

  • 0:36

  • whoaaa i rememeber those old cmmershals but didn't know that it was you the sprinal one is intresting its like bite freeze XD

  • shit was good back than. shit was good. )=

  • These are the definition of 90s commercials.

  • I find it funny how the commercials have Good Humor.

  • I miss these commercials, they were great

  • They don't have popsicles in Canada?

  • @johncro13 Well, they did (except Lick-a-Color, I think). We still have the Cyclone, but it has always been quite different.

    I remember these commercials, though. They are definitely memorable and definitely among the better commercials that I've seen during the breaks.

  • @johncro13 Yes they do.

  • @johncro13 yes we have popsicles in canada

  • 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.

  • THE COLOURS DUKE! THE COLOURS!

  • @randomandproudqueen I'm colorblind kid....

  • @dog6363 *SADFACE*

  • 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..

  • lol...im actually colorblind.

  • My favorite was the one with the dog saying "I'm colorblind, kid!"

  • I remember one where juice came out of his ears.

  • 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.

  • omg that i have not seen in years i wish they where back

  • I don't think it was the popsicles that were good....it was obviously some kind of narcotics added the them.

  • @kkcryant02 the narcotics were pure sugar... with a hint of heroin. then dipped in sugar, then coated in a delicious coating of sugar.

  • Fantastic Fruity was one of my favorites.

  • ah man.....I friggin miss these comercials

  • These ran for years. They stopped in 97 or 98. I remember. I was there.

  • 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.

  • I remember there was a pencil Popsicle in these commercials

  • I used to watch these commercials back in the 90s.

  • what kind of drugs are in these popsicles?

  • im colorblind kid

  • These commercials were such a huge part of my childhood. I still remember each of them. Thanks for that. Being a kid in the 90s was fun.

  • Man, I remember these commercials. Brings back memories.

  • Heeyy buddy! I know you from Nick during Legends of the hidden...

    Me and my wife bonded over this and then had to look it up, nice touch with the description.

  • What year was this aired..?? :/

  • @SuperRich1970 1994, I believe.

  • @johncro13 1997 or 1998.

  • POPSICLES WOAHOOOAAAOOO!!! @_@

  • love it! old school!

  • Alright, so I pretty much owe you infinite high-fives. Make a note of that.

  • @CharlesBeefy I'll hold you to it.

  • You, good sir, were a wonderful part of my childhood. Thank you, and thank you for posting this. :D

  • 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.

  • "Hey baldy! BALDY!!!!"

    That was my favourite ending back then!

  • I was waiting for him to say "We can't stop here this is bat country!"

  • ahhhhhhhhhhhhh memories.

  • i was in elementary school when this came out

  • the seizures!  the seizures!

  • memories all day - thanks for posting!

  • Oh man, did you come up with laughing the last syllable of 'popsicle' on your own or was that the director?

  • YES. You are a god among men. These commercials are legendary.

  • 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.

  • THE COLORS, DUKE! THE COLORS!

  • Hey, Baldy! Baldy!

  • 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!

  • Nice to see this again. "The colors, Duke! The Colors!" has been a stock phrase of mine for years...

  • wow this brings back memories. what year was this aired?

  • I always loved the talking dog

  • I don't know why "the colors, Duke, the colors! is so memorable, but I don't think I will ever forget it!

  • For years I thought the dog said "Uncolorfied, kid" because the kid had finished his popsicle. Now I know he's saying "I'm color blind, kid."

    Must have been fun being in those commercials--the first one is my favorite. "The colors, Duke! The colors!"

  • 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 :(

  • These commercials made me who I am today.

  • I have the first commercial on a tape.

  • Thanks for being a staple in my childhood.

  • Whatever happened to the dog in the commercial?

  • Did you know that the laughs and sounds you made are etched into my brain forever?

  • hey baldy! BALDY!!!

  • PAWPSICLE

  • Oh wow, all of my childhood all a once just flew out of the monitor.

  • Lol I was quoting "The colors!" commercial the other day!

    You're a legend man.

  • By the way these commercials play out, I am lead to believe those popsicles are laced with some sort of psychodelics!

  • 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.

  • I was looking for THIS version of the Popsicle commercials (where the announcer says "From Good Humor"), and not the "Popsicle Zone" ones.

  • to this day i still quote this commercial

  • YOU said the colours Duke, THE COLOURS?! You are a living legend.

  • Ahaha, I love this commercial. xD

    I like randomly saying "THE COLORS, DUKE, THE COLORS!!" to see if anyone else says "I'm colorblind, kid."

  • i call bs on this whole operation

  • one of the only commercials i remember perfectly ....ahhh the good ol days

  • i'm color blind, kid.

  • It's really cool that you uploaded these commercials with your own commentary.

    I've got to say, it really brings back a rush of nostalgia seeing these again. I miss childhood.

  • favorite commercials ever!

  • So there was acid in these popsicles?

  • the nostalgia, DUKE!

  • Actually, we aren't completely colorblin- woof woof woof woof!

  • 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.

  • lol! I remember these commercial.

  • Haha these commercial are awesome. They were one of my favorite all time commercials.

  • 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.

  • 0:16 seizure moment! @_@

  • Whoever made this commercial must have been on a serious acid trip.

  • @blodachia if you look harder you would notice, the up-loader is that kid.

  • 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... :)

  • Damn, I just finished a Lick-A-Color!

  • ahaha this was my favourite commercial ever! i used to yell that shit all the time

  • 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.
