[TheCubeFilms]

His original name was "Wacky Bird"

[TheCubeFilms]

Lol im doing research on jim, and this was the original outcome of big bird. He later changed it once he aired sesame street :)

[Sailorsega]

Is that Big Bird?

[peppermeek]

[Firebrdsuite]

[Madams1977]

[VampireKingDuz]

Hey bird who doesn't like folk singers with messages, be happy you're not in a damn Wilkins coffee commercial. That guitar woulda went up your ass.

[armanth13]

sounds like the same guys behind the wilkins coffee commercials. (probably is). Not bad.

[Gytu]

It's Big Bird!!

[rang3r34]

RC cola is the BEST!! I just bought some Cherry RC the other day!! Taste WAAAAAY better than the other cherry cola out there!

[SimonAlander]

@rang3r34 Don't believe ya.

[H20MichaelMyers]

@moviesare me too

[WiiFolderJosh]

That bird looks a lot like the bird used in an episode of Fraggle Rock.

[kc86er]

@WiiFolderJosh Are you referring to the bird from the episode "Wembley's Egg"?

[WiiFolderJosh]

@kc86er Yep.

[zzzzizzzz1]

Nutty bird sings, '' Royal Crown Cola.'' commercial except the smart and grumpy bird.

[collgoff]

Wow that singing bird sounds like Kermit.

[SO1970S]

The world would be a much better place if everyone drank Royal Crown Cola!

[toby070]

And I won't have teeth like him

(imagine drinking that stuff every day, then you'll see me have partly dissolved teeth)

[Ultrasecond]

Big Bird's child acting days, hahaha.

[zackv1x]

these early henson ads are fantastic

[n3xus100]

they need to run these kind of ads again

[wasjohnny]

I hate folk singers with a message.

[shoguts]

too bad disney owns them now

[Johnny2071]

The only people who can restore the Muppets back to their former glory are the people who watch these youtube videos. Why Disney didn't do anything special for the 50th anniversary. All they care about is Vanessa Hudgens Miley Cyrus, The Jonas Brothers and a bunch of High School Musicals. They suck!

[disneynut06]

That's not true and you know that!

Why do poo-poo heads like you have to ruin everything for everyone else?!

[Johnny2071]

First of all, it is true. Secondly, I'm not ruining a damn thing. And third, come on, "poo-poo head"!? Are you serious? How old are you?

[disneynut06]

That's a good thing!

The Muppets are in the middle of making a huge comeback, thanks to them.

This is a very good time to be a Muppet fan, so be greatful!

[sp45ih]

LOL I like that bird who's dissin out the other bird

[doctorwhoobawooba]

I wish Jim henson couldve sponsered schwepps lemonade when he was still with us. R.I.P mr henson.

[KeijiKG]

This has to be the only product that survived that Henson help promote.

[CaptMARNEY]

Ymean other than LaChoy? ;D

[KeijiKG]

Sure La Choy COMPANY is still around, but do they still have the canned Chow Mein?

I'm not being rhetorical, I'm actually asking...since that was the product being endorsed. :)

[CaptMARNEY]

Hmmmm.

Yknow, I'm not sure.^^;

[hellephant]

Yeah, they still have it in the stores.

Had some a month ago and it wasn't bad.

[Pooleman96]

Actually,this AND Munchos chips are two of the surviving products that were ever endorsed by Muppets

[KeijiKG]

Munchos are still around?! Well my friend, I am SO buying me 5 boxes!

[sp45ih]

Yeah my coworker gave me some munchos not too long ago! They're around.

[annoyingfeatures]

yeah i just got a regular sized bag today at fred meyer 4 2 bucks

[FlyingDuckMan360]

Nutty Bird is None other Than the Nutty Cousin of Big Bird.

[muppetlover16]

@FlyingDuckMan360  Wow I didn't know that

[kristell9]

RC not only tasted better but it was cheaper. And there were prizes under the bottle caps. Money prizes! Now that's a cola!

[HeadNtheClouds]

Royal Crown & Crown Royal, hmmm, no wonder I started drinking when I was 9

[Akira625]

Nice to see that Jim Henson was in such high demand from the sponsors back in the 60's. They must have been banging his door down after Henson made the Wilkins Coffee commercials.

[XANA8446]

i rarly see it in the machiens an more

[agentadvocate]

Golden.

Just the sound of Henson makes me happy :D

[miffleman182]

Great clip.

[acousvnt]

Heheheh, when I look at old commercials like this, it's hard to imagine actually being persuaded to buy the product. But for entertainment & historic value it's fantastic.

[ohnoestehintranet]

Thank you, batman1971, for posting all these. They're fantastic.

[culpit]

It's cool seeing a classic Jim Henson commercial like this.

[raposofan]

I love this. There's nothing more I can say.

[dorourke105]

Whoa it's big bird, I think.

[myscreams]

what would come to be Big Bird.

[swrdgrl]

LOL! Henson was a genius.
