McDonald's ~ *PufnStuf* Commercial

[daved1974]

it looks like a dream someone had after doing too much acid

[MrLazy27]

hamburger patch 0:37,

I always found this disturbing.

[4thtroika]

@MrLazy27 I tell my nieces and nephews about how they had to make sure they picked the eyeballs off the burgers before they served them to anybody. Sometimes they forget an eye and sombody would end up with a cyclops burger.

I don't think they believe me. :-)

[floreseddie11]

last time i eat a mac with shrooms

[freemanstrip]

Some ACLU law-fare twit would eat McD alive today if this advert were to run today. 

[gaijinlaw]

@freemanstrip The ACLU? Law-fare? That makes the kind of sense that... doesn't.

[Philburpalooza]

How times have changed! I'm glad I was a kid when things were sooo much less uptight.

[moonspinner55]

hey man...cool

[Stcs94]

This is harold and kumar go to mcdonalds.

[FlyingPinkUnicorn]

Someone pass me the roach, please.

[123123niftyshiftyaaa]

getting a salad from McDonalds is like paying a prostitute for a hug

[GravesRWFiA]

When I was like 8 years old I had a psoter of mcdonald's land-with the shake spewing volcanos the back ground

[PrivateOperator]

One word: Creepy.

[wbboehm]

Ronald McDonald=capitalist stooge

[HotMaSherry]

Pretty certain that the Kroffts were pufn some kinda stuf back in the '60s and 70s ;-)

[mrdiamondheadTV]

PERFECTION!

[DrMasopic]

who cares, puff n stuff sucked, gimmie a cheezburger!! ....magic flute, bwaaa! ptooee!

[bradybunch63]

Keep on walking into the world of make believe. You'll find Mister Rogers just beyond the trolley.

[animehunter23]

the oddity of 70's pop culture, course guess the same can be said for stuff from the 80's to a person who was born a decade or two later

[themattoto]

Its brilliant how they rhymed french fry patch with hamburger patch

[Naveisme]

I think it was the Pufnstuf-like puppetry and character costumes that got Mickey D's in legal trouble at the time.

[QuiteUnused]

I guess you could look at the animate trees and conclude there's a common thread there between McDonaldland and Living Island, but at least in present day terms, it's thin; nothing even close to grounds for a lawsuit.

[Joeykm1972]

So, this is how kids from long ago used to eat. Everyone used to be thin, too.

[matt605]

I'm less convinced there was copyright infringement in this commercial. The biggest factor against the challenge by the owners of H R Pufnstuff is that, absent knowledge of H R Pufnstuff, it looks like a ripoff of the Wizard of Oz, with apple pie trees (the apple trees), hamburger patches (poppy field), and a yellow brick road. Mayor McCheese in other commercials does look like Pufnstuff though.

[Ilovebubblegummusic]

If you like the HR PufnStuf and the great stuff from 1970, you'll probably like listening to my bubblegum music radio show "Echo Valley". It's online, free and just for fun. I play music from this show and The Bugaloos and such almost every show! Google " echo valley bubblegum " and you'll find it! :)

[Htown75]

WTF!!! Leave drugs alone!

[YoshiYummy]

sure let's take a evil- the clowns hand and walk though an edible, talking tree and hamburger heads whose babies grow on the ground...

[SEXTEE9R]

OH BOY, I CAN LEARN ALOT ABOUT PCP AND TAKING BIG DICKS FROM PEDOPHILE CLOWNS FROM THE 70'S. OH NO....

[visor109]

Where's Freddy the Flute.....in a Happy Meal?

[MrCorporalTunnel]

McDonald's grows on trees.

[elricmb]

I'm gonna throw up...

[markey700]

Big scary clown and trees, burgers growing from the ground, Im sure to have a nightmare tonight

[joshjhutton]

Those two kids are obese now.

[DASSAM71]

@joshjhutton at the time this was filmed, these kids would go outside and play to burn it off. Not sit in front of the computer or tv playing video games I'm guessing

[cliftojo]

@joshjhutton there probably dead by now

[jayce79]

Wow! That's a blast from the past.

[Cool2BCeltic]

Ronald MacDonald is one very sinister character.

[MrCorporalTunnel]

@Cool2BCeltic

Yeah, he's really like trying to convince kids to take their parents to his place. Wait, that's not sinister, that's just marketing.

[NitroNorm5688]

Looks like a McDonalds attempt at Willy Wonka #1

[PurtoRicanMuscle]

@NitroNorm5688

this commercial came out before willy wonka

[BigSkippy1263]

And, what's so controversial about this commercial? This is what they were all like in the 70's. 

[muldercat1]

what the hell did i just watch

[n00bt00btv]

i pulled an all nighter thanks to weird arse old commercials. but now because of this one im not sure if im asleep or someone stuck drugs into my bubble gum. halp.

[MrCorporalTunnel]

Those 'kids' are probably about 50 right now.

[MsGeek703]

Yes, I remember this commercial when it aired!!! I guess that dates me.

[TheSV3]

@MsGeek703 don't worry, you're not alone. I remember this commercial as a kid. Unfortunately, after working for McD's (76-83), the only thing I want to do with McDonaldland involves an A-10 and some napalm cannisters. Sorry if I offened anybody.

[sallyblack13]

LOL

[bettydaw1970]

i atched this a few days ago, and i couldnt get the tune out of my head

[wkm92779]

I'll have a Big Mac...extra mushrooms

[tekubus]

Hail Satan.

[ki56g]

The advertising for McDonalds back in the day was amazing. To this day I still have a McDonalds toy store replica with little people and everything, the halloween tapes, and a lot of the old happy meal toys ya know the good ones that were actually toys not the current day shit

[MelAndLayna9998]

Waht am i smokin?

[ChicagoGirlxx]

Ronald creeps me out... xD

[AnaBabyBunny]

this creeped me out, as if something was supposed to pop out at the ebd O.O

[cplenopro455]

WHAT THE FUCKxD

[slmacph]

I'm a child of the 70's. This was how things looked back in the day. Course, my neighbourhood was rough. The trees used to beat me up. And the clowns were always chasing me! As for the McCrappy Meals? All we were given were a burnt piece of ground beef (?) and a stale French fry--without ketchup. To drink we'd be given old coffee. And the "toy" was something dumb like a rubber band or a piece of lint. Ah, the seventies. :-/

[glamourqween94]

i think the commercail then is better then the ones now



[Lfdjake91]

I somewhat recall these psychedelic McDonaldland commercialsw/ all the weird characters from when I was a kid, and very well remember the simpler ones of the '80s. They should bring these back.

[RattyRandnums]

What the fuck did I just watch.

[LuvItachiWeasal]

Like of L. Frank Baum's Oz, Raddly Ann and Andy, and the Theif and the Cobbler to McDonald Land and Ronald McDonald! Amazing in my childhood, my boyhood!

[slmacph]

What copyright infringement? I didn't see anyone in this commercial who even came close to resembling Jack Wild. Nor did I see any talking flutes. And dragons? Nary a won, unless you count Mayor McCheese draggin' his buns.

I loved H.R.P. as a kid. But the producers weren't exactly original with all their characters, either. For example, those talking trees were inspired by the talking trees from "Wizard of Oz". Sid and Marty owed credit for a lot of their creative whimsy to L. Frank Baum.

[kdreamland]

@slmacph They never should have sued Mcdonalds. Then we could still see this type of advert playing today. And I could meet Big Mac and Big Cheese.

[ROCK824AKAFRASH]

めちゃくちゃ怖い

[Iburiedpaul123]

mayor mccheese looks a little like puff n stuff

[Timbrock1000]

McDonald's should bring back this commercial. Course, this was back when a trip to McDonalds was something kids experienced once a week or so at most. Not like today where stupid parents take their kids every other day because they're too lazy to cook dinner! ...and they wonder why kids today are a bunch of fat asses!

[ibeliveification]

Hey, can I smoke what this guy that made this comercial is smokeing. this ad makes you HHHHHHHHHHIIIIIIIIIIIGGGGGGGGH­HHHHHH. LOL

[msrdrummer]

@ibeliveification I am not as think as you stoned I am..........

[JohnJohnisrad]

If you play it backwards, its a clown saving children from an unhealthy prison while they are being attacked by food that is alive in a forest full of strange creatures.

[sweetangel2002u]

far out!



[5u8365w]

I'm sure this is what everyone sees two joints in. Thus why everyone says they have the munchies after a couple.

[SENBIE]

The poor bastards who had to live with this memory =/

[GuitarPlaya2000]

I'm getting the munchies just watching it!!

[Memelish]

GROSS. 

[unclejunglebass]

great bassline... but this is genuinely creepy

[crazyblondeone00]

Well the trees are a knock-off from the Wizard of Oz if they want to get technical about it.

[Faustino818]

I feel high just watching it.

[sensrok30]

if you press 1 over and over, it looks like she's fucking a tree

[scrubrat90]

Cocaine's hellva drug

[megashuttlecock]

CRACKWOOD the movie !!!! coming soon...

[sensrok30]

i wanna be a fucking fat kid who constantly goes to sev, mcdonalds and drinks piss off of a pedophiles wiener!! GO FUCK MY DICK, YAAAAAA!

[FuMbL35]

Why is there a vegan even watching this video?

[wearevenom74]

Damn! Ronald's fro was kickin'! He should sport it once again. Click like if you agree.

[RedwoodTheElf]

This was a commercial that McDonalds made after consulting with Sid and Marty Croft about THEM making commercials for them, and then telling the Crofts they weren't interested...McDonalds got sued for stealing the Croft's ideas, and lost.

[TheStanbabe]

I love this"McDonald's"tv plug.

[sarre87]

why would you BUY food at the restaurant when there is all that free food outside!

[JagrrrTV]

Boyce and Hart?

[jenngra505]

The Krofft's did sue McDonald's and eventually win over the blatant copyright infringement in this commercial!

[SteveCarras]

@jenngra505

Therefore, it's PUFNSTUFF - LIKE commercial...and I actually WATCHED the things at the time..

[MCMLXIable]

All I can say is: PASS THAT BONG!

[Charybdys]

@MCMLXIable

A milk-shake bong? Vanilla is just perfect because it cuts out the harshness, but leaves the THC, and gives the smoke a wonderful, sugary-taste!

[sensrok30]

@Charybdys

can i fuck your milk-shake dong?

[Charybdys]

@sensrok30

You don't fuck it, it fucks your hamburgler.

[sensrok30]

@Charybdys

hey, no swearing!

[oliverecords]

funky

[billpage]

cool tim machine history kodac magic poride ilusuion fun

[NVRMNDSHP]

Magic Mushroom Burgers & LSD Shakes!!!!!!!!!!!

[Styxhexenhammer666]

[cdanteg67]

I'd say late 60's early 70's. I was 3 or 4 at that time.

[streetcornerjames]

[SnesMaster17]

You couldnt pay me to hold that freaky clowns hand! lol

[BustinGuns77]

Scarred for life lol

[caseyw1286]

Damn, what the Hell does McDonalds put in their burgers lol.

[cobolsaurus]

@caseyw1286 WORMS!!!

[vaniti06]

They didn't have happy meals in the 60's.

[cobolsaurus]

@vaniti06 I thought it was more from the70's

[nuwavevidspud]

This was when happy meals were still sold in cardboard boxes

[cdanteg67]

Whoa! I vivdly remember that commercial when I was a kid! Man, that song was like 60s groovy, man!

[cobolsaurus]

@cdanteg67 was it from the 60's?

[melojim1]

@0:18 i have a feeling that's not the only thing the kids have to grab of ronalds

JK JK lol

[sarah20xoxo]

[bettydaw1970]

[JessicaRabbit1011]

[SinaiBeach]

Sounds like it says "There's think Sh** volcanoes" bahaha XD

[razvanus39]

ronald the pedophile clown

[supaultrapimp]

[MultiLostFan]

[pinworms70]

@MultiLostFan shadap you nazi.

[hcvang]

@MultiLostFan nah, they're fat because they drive everywhere - idiots think it's uncool, not fancy, to live in the cities so they drive a hundred miles in order to find a place they can live and be all hoyty toyty.

[classicrockmann]

What... the... fuck....

[mrfallout261]

Look at ronald and think, CANT TOUCH THIS!!

[Bageera63]

Dr. Frank-N-Furter(Ronald McDonald) leading Brad & Janet(the 2 kids) into the world of....

[LonesomePine369]

@Bageera63 haha

[mewmaster151]

so thats what stoner heaven is like lol only everything is replaced by burger king

[Bageera63]

I think the idea for Rocky Horror came from watching this commercial. Truth is, I remember this commercial.

[mewmaster151]

@Bageera63 how so?

[keddy109]

i am so terrified! i dont think i can eat mcdonalds again without getting a mental image of this!

[txvoltaire]

I've heard of people seeing all that on the way to McDonald's, but they were stoned at the time.

[teflonmagnet]

slight buzz from 1st viewing

[1NessQuick1]

wow no wonder all them drugs in the 70's are illegal now. :)

[ronin6401]

meth is a hell of a drug.

[ghostdancer2302]

Would've scared my ass as a little kid. Willy Wonka -esque.

[tamspeci]

@ghostdancer2302 It didn't scare my horse as a little kid. I thought it was (& still do) think it's McGroovy!

[zzzombie888]

Ronald McHendrix

[betonyrose123]

ronald's pants.

[snareslapper]

That wasn't lettuce in the burgers...HOLY SHIT!....talking cheeseburgers.

[AxeNewkill]

All the McDonalds characters were stolen from HR Pufnstuf. McDonalds lost a lawsuit against Sid & Marty Kroft and had to modify their characters a bit. I think they made some deal with S&M later.

[shortywarn]

watching now,,, it looks like a really crazy acid trip

[GoblinXXX]

See, this is what McDonald's was like when I was a kid: A groovy, far out fairyland of cheeseburgers, fries and shakes. Now the poor little bastards today get "Happy Meals" with a fucking apple slices pawned off on them. (Because a sliced raw apple MUST be healthier than a sliced cooked potato... Especially for the same price.)

[1060893]

What did they put in those hamburgersd in the 70's?

[GoblinXXX]

@1060893 Actual meat. Really. A patty that filled the whole bun. Hard to believe, I know.

[SandmanPaul5]

That's too funny ! I remember this when I was a kid ! I was always fascinated by those little hamburgers popping up and down, and by the french fry patch..thanks for putting this up , when being a kid was fun..

[Jellogel]

groovy tune

[Xforeverlove21]

wow scary!

[3mmygirl24]

Mcdonalds version of Willy Wonkas chocolate Factory?

[ZACKnirvana]

what the flying fuck!?

[kickinitonthetube]

ronald is gonna pufNstuf those kids with his big mac and cover them in cheese while in mcdonald land

[nintendo277]

Holy rape fest Batman! We gotta save those kids!

[GoblinXXX]

@nintendo277 You act like there's something creepy about a clown offering kids a taste of his meat!

[Syriusb12]

Faaar Ouuuut! This is what happens when Mickey D's is laced with LSD!

[StitchPoop]

ronald mcdonald reminds me of michael jackson

[scoopster6619]

GROOVY BURGERS - cooked just right !

[mst3kpimp]

sid and marty krofft sued and won a lawsuit against mcdonalds for this ad campaign. Mayor McCheese is a blatent rip-off of H.R. Puffenstuff.

[Quamlen]

I hate McDonalds!

[AzazlRue]

Most Pedophiles have a pocket full of candy.....Ronald has a complete McDonald's land at his disposal

[kaijinu]

@AzazlRue shit...can't argue with that!

[nagzul]

wow lol brainwashing kids to think the road to death is magical.

[Optimalillusion]

I'm diggin' on the groovy music.

[imdagr8st]

wow look at the fro on ronald

[skullbrick]

A MCDONALDS IN MCDONALDS LAND? HOLY SHIT

[TheAdultChild101]

What they don't tell you is about the blood and guts that gets spilled when they have to decapitate all those little screaming hamburger plants to serve the public for the next day.

[NineTailsDemonFox]

@TheAdultChild101 thats just the special sauce

[TheAdultChild101]

@NineTailsDemonFox So that's what it is!

[mvilla34]

So what does Michael Jackson and Ronald Mc Donald have in common?

Little Kids

[SquierClassicVibe35]

0:28 lol

[MrAds213]

this shouldn't be mcdonalds land it should be get obese land

[ColorzBox]

Lol the title says it all Puf n' Stuf

We knew they were Puffing but what were they Stuffing?

[Brenda2OOO]

Junk food and recreational drugs. They just seem right together.

[EspioArtwork]

Margaritaville

[wildstar314]

Best McDonalds commercial ever.
