"Hello, I'm Michael Eisner"
Defunctland crashes through the wall like Kool-aid man
With a sponsor from Squarespace!
As a massive Defunctland fan, this made me breathe out of my nose when something’s funny on the internet.
"OH NO"
@@TigirlakaLaserwolf6 OH YEAH
You should really send that clip to Defunctland, Ian. I think he’ll like it :)
"hello, i'm michael eisner""
that Defunctland flashback
I can't think of Eisner without thinking of Defunctland. What a damn good show.
OMG hahah
You can’t have Eisner without Defunctland
Yeah, Defunctland has made Mr. Eisner a genuine PTSD trigger for me.
"Hello, I'm Michael Eisner."

The fact that a bug's land is also gone now (very recently too) is just the cherry on top. Maybe we'll get a defunctland episode on that soon
I love how the politicians responded to the question about mud-slinging with more mud-slinging.

@@robinw.8083 Him and Yesterworld both for me. But yeah, that was every Sunday night for my family and I for years. It was one of the few real small pleasures we had when I was growing up. Seeing the segments set in the parks always killed me because we could never afford it. I went once when I was 5 and then the next time I got to go was almost 30 years later.
I think the two phenomena are related; I don't think I would've cared a great deal about the CEO of the Walt Disney Company without Kevin going into the foibles of his tenure.

Fun story about those musical Clorox ads at the end: Back around that time one rainy day, there was a TV station airing a marathon of James Bond movies and my grandfather was watching it. Being bored I decided to join him. During one commercial break, something, somewhere went wrong and the ENTIRE commercial break was those Clorox ads! Legit about 10-12 in a row of "MAMA'S GOT THE MAGIC..." It became a running joke between my grandfather and me for years! Good times...
Mama really did have the magic that day
I remember the Clorox commercials. The music sounded a bit more calypso than Harry Belafonte did. It keep saying “Mama’s Got the Magic” over and over like a broken record.
If you know Mama got her magic, as the platters would say “You got the Magic Touch”.
Wow! This is better than my version
Watching classic movie or mystery series marathons are the best way to bond with your family members at home...
@@KasumiRINA I see what you did there!
I think that Victor Borge segment was really well presented. I love how we transition from utter confusion to respect and a solemn reminder of the passage of time through this snapshot of a point in time that is this VHS tape.
In Tim Minchin's "3 minute song" he makes a joke about how Victor Borge became such a standard for musical comedy that it not only laid the groundwork for people like him but gave him a constant point of comparison.
Stilgoe and Skellern are the only other musical comedians I've seen come close to Victor Borge and Tim Minchin in terms of piano playing skills AND comedy, the sheer genius of Richard Stilgoe being able to take any 6 or 7 random things the audience shout out and write a funny rhyming song about them in the time it took Peter Skellern to play just 2 piano songs amazes me still.
When I was a kid and the menards commercials came on - I'd get in trouble for singing "SAVE BIG MONEY AT MY NARDS!"
Haha same
My son said the same thing.

It's all fun and games until I show up looking for deadbolts and smoke alarms.

Wow Ian aged fast.
Yeah! I heard he booked himself for his own funeral, and did a hell of a job
I’d honestly kill for a day where the only news is that it’s cold.

But then the news would be "Christopher Valentin killed some random person today. It's also cold."
Be careful. That's what the dinosaurs said.

Thank you so much for dipping into the history of Victor Borge. I got a little teary! My parents were huge fans and I was an avid piano player. They took me to see him on my 12th birthday in 1991. 😌

Hooo boy. I remember. >_>
Lads, this is how I got into anime! I had a Japanese friend in school back in the 90s who got sent vhs tapes from his grandparents. I came over one time and got introduced to ruroni Kenshin, detective Conan, kindaichi, kochikame, and Dragonball gt! From then on I was like "gimme all the tapes!"
Same! I kinda miss how we distributed shows with tapes.
Over here in Poland in the 90s we had an Italian-owned TV shopping channel that ran actual shows in certain narrow timeslots. It had the cheapest old shit they could syndicate, but that ended up largely being twice-redubbed ancient anime, most of which barely if ever made it into the US by the way. The Italians had censored these shows at some point, but there was still a lot of random child beating and violent deaths. One of the shows was "Tiger Mask", an anime from the 60s about a wrestler who donates his winnings to an orphanage. Dude actually kills people a few times lol, still, because of his backstory when people in Japan donate to orphanages they to this day occasionally do it under his name (Naoto Date).
@@GdotWdot tiger mask rules, i still got a vhs of the swedish dub
I was in a Menards the other day. They still use that jingle, and it even plays on the intercom between songs.
I just wonder how the employees have to deal with that jingle all day and or night. I know they can't help it but every time I shop at Menards thats what I end up thinking the whole. Kinda distracting from shopping if you ask me. Just a regular Minnesotan passing through

I had hearing damage at a young age so I knew the tunes of those musical commercials, not so much the words. It's really wild to go back and listen today with my surgery-fixed ears and hear the lyrics clearly for the first time.

That’s Victor Borge, he’s probably playing piano in heaven.
Yes
Sadly he has passed. I got lucky enough to see him live in concert before he died.
That's what I thought. I remember ads for his comedy shows on late night TV back in the 80s.
I was screaming victors name at my phone lol. Glad I’m not the only one who recognizes him.
He’s literally talking about Victor Borge in the video though, even mentioning that he died in 2000
There's a reason everyone from the midwest has the Menards jingle permanently seared into their brain, it's pure nostalgia
Ian aggressively singing and dancing along with the Chef Boyardee ad with his eyes opened up till the breach looking absolutely insane is one of my favourite things now... 29:26
"The only news of the day is that it's going to be cold tonight?... Simpler times, man!"
That one actually cuts deep.
Milkshake I yearn for those days, again. Ironically, the MAGA days have brought us, instead, into the “everything is divisive and you have to think about horrible things at all time” -era. Great time, indeed. I really can’t wait to have a day with no news.
@@rrpostalagain basically the news media has realized that the best way to attract viewers and keep them coming back is to make them scared and/or angry
O That’s nothing new. I don’t agree if you’re trying to say that they are making “fake news” or making up a global infection. What I want is a president who isn’t infatuated with being in the news and being worshipped. I don’t want to think about the president every day. It’s not a good thing.
@@rrpostalagain ah yes it's all trump's fault definitely not the predatory habits of the news media ok
O ok? That’s all you got? Incredulity? At the absolute very least, Trump has failed to unite the country and “lead” with a “plan”. You are somehow convinced that the media expecting something from the president is unfair? Personally, I can’t believe they still give him as much respect as they do.
Just so everyone’s clear, the Menards jingle is played constantly in the store. Every 4-6 minutes each day and more during the holidays. Eventually it would drive you crazy. So there was definitely a bonus for me to have an outside position.
Did they think the shoppers kept forgetting where they were or something?
NON STOP but damn it does make me want to go into a Menard for that lumber and tire rubber smell...
@@LEdHeadW I've never been to one but you just convinced me to go. (Once this pandemic isn't a bother...) I love those types smells.
I remember going to one a few months ago and you weren't kidding about the jingle playing it constantly.
I work in Plumbing. What’s worse is hearing “High Hopes” 5 times every fucking day
That oatmeal ad wasn't very empowering. It just feels patronizing.
Cause it is
when the documentary about the 1900s came up, i thought it was ridiculous that boomers would sit and watch tv just to make themselves feel nostalgia and then i heard "mamas got the magic" and went "ooo i remember that :)"
As soon as the Clorox 2 bottle came up, it all came back for me.
What's strange to me is that the time period seems a little too early. Surely there wouldn't be many people in the 90s who felt nostalgic for the late 1800s.
It would be the Silent Generation or Greatest Generation that was nostalgic for that era. Boomers would be nostalgic about the 60s I guess.
@@ashkitt7719 thanks for the correction :D

Mama's got the magic, and she's gonna get burned for being a witch.
The Cremewiches commercial awakened something primal and eldritch within me that I had forgotten a decade and a half ago.
Not to be confused with Cream witches, my go to porn search.
And yet, I don't even recall any of those products aside from them existing. Makes you wonder how the marketing execs felt when they made great commercials that _failed to sell anything._
@@wellthismachinekills3809 ...
It’s funny how vintage these ads feel, and they’re only from 2002. Which doesn’t seem like that long ago. I love these, it’s like looking through a time capsule.
I was in kindergarten when the creamwich sandwiches were at their peak, I loved them so much. Until one day the kid across from me told me the cream was made specifically from sheep, and I asked my mom not to buy them anymore.
omg lol why did kids come up with oddly specific places where food came from?? I have a similar story where a kid in 1st grade told everyone that mcdonald’s hamburgers were made of “goat brains”, and even though i eventually knew it wasn’t true i didn’t eat them for years after that just because that was what i associated them with lol
My grandma loved Victor Borge, her favourite sketch was where he plays piano so violently he stops to flip up the seat on the piano to pull out a seat belt. I remember her howling with laughter.

What is this? A crossover episode?
Same here
"Does a woman need her own oatmeal?" Translation: "Let's us sell you the exact same product for more money."
It's expensive making things pink. They might even throw in a few objects that vaguely taste like strawberries.
I find these sorts of products insulting. How dare they assume I want pink oatmeal! I want my oatmeal brown and boring like everyone elses!
Because pandering is empowering of course
I don't get the point of complaining about the "pink tax." If it's the exact same product then just buy the cheaper version?
They added soy to it...that's it. At the time, the phyto-estrogen research for soy made it seem more effective than it actually was for treating symptoms of menopause. That said...just buy regular cheap oatmeal and make it with soymilk.
Over a year later, I just woke up from a dream with the chips ahoy jingle stuck in my head. I genuinely couldn't go back to sleep as I was hunting around to find where i heard that tune before.
Vaporwave: The Series
Victor Borge was wonderful. My grandparents made me watch him when I was like seven or eight and I still laugh now at 36.
Man, I'm glad I'm not the only one who knows who this is.
We're the same age and I watched him with my grandparents also. I still think he's great too.
I really miss him
I never heard of him before now, but he seems like a musical version of Tommy Cooper, who was similar but with magic tricks.
Bill Bailey is a modern music based comedy act that is good.
This is something I had not thought about in 30 years.
its so fascinating how much pop culture and entertainment is pretty much lost from the public consciousness entirely, in just 30 or 40 years. It makes you wonder what we think is a big deal today but nobody will remember 30 years from now, except for in bizarre snippets like these.
I'm glad youtube exists, because a lot of that stuff would be lost to time.
Watching Ian's passion and love for things makes me so happy. Sometimes I feel life is kind of devoid of anything to care about except maybe a few close people, but then i see Ian talking about how much he enjoys this kind of stuff and it warms my jaded heart ❤
We need an hour long mystery tape episode please!
I still have vivid memories of Chef Boyardee commercials, with the cans rolling down the road into a kid's house.
YES!! Oh my God, I always used to turn on the NC channel 46 Saturday morning cartoons- Yu-Gi-Oh was my favorite- and I remember that commercial clearly. I'd basically forgotten about it until I read this
I just tried that stuff, it’s ass.
BASF had a ton of commercials in the 90s. They all followed a format of "At BASF we don't make (thing). We make it (adjective)."
For example, "We don't make the plane. We make it lighter" or "We don't make the jeans. We make them bluer." Then they would close with "At BASF we don't make a lot of the products you buy every day. We make a lot of the products you buy ever day better."
How do you know, that you love a RUclipsr? You watch each and every commercial through without skipping it.
Oh, and love the fact you discovered Børge Rosenbaum aka Victor Borge. Not many remember him nowadays. Fun fact, he ended up buying an old castle here in Denmark.
The second I heard “Mama’s got the magic!” I was just waiting for Ian to repeat it over and over lol

I'm glad you brought that contradiction up! It adds further weight to my theory of why "Ian" (as he would like us to believe) is different in so many ways from how he was years ago.
Avid watchers of Mr. Moose's channel, including his Brutal Foods spinoff series, may recall a particular episode revolving around reviewing a variety of *Hungry-Man™* brand frozen TV dinners, back in 2017. _"But where are you going with this?"_ you might ask, and with good reason. Perhaps your mind went to the friendly and lovable Tiny Ian from certain Brutal Foods episodes, having discovered a way to enlarge himself to successfully impersonate (Big) Ian?
Maybe, but unlikely. We've never been given reason to be suspicious of Tiny Ian. No, the real culprit is none other than *Hungry-Man™* himself! Who was it that supposedly came to the rescue by flying to Ian's apartment, when a not-hungry Ian was assaulted with frozen dinners, pleading for help? *_Hungry-Man™!_* And who was nowhere to be found for the remainder of the video as soon as that muscled, hungry "hero" arrived? _IAN!_
If you look closely enough, those gargantuan muscles are nearly bursting out of his sleeves at all times. Who else would have the might to not only lock Ian away but restrain his physique for the last few years to fool us all? It all adds up! >:(

I went to Disney California in 2013 and the Bug's Land part was _still there,_ over a decade later. I never liked the movie but the park zone was really really cool, every little detail was some scaled up object. Awnings and signs were leaves, posts were things like pencils and bendy straws stuck in the ground, benches were made from popsicle sticks. It really felt like you were shrunk down to bug size.
It was great but sadly it’s now been replaced with Cars land
@@maddieb.4282 Both were there when I went, so unless Cars Land moved or doubled in size you're mistaken
I played piano as a Young Person, and loved Victor Borge ever since my grandma introduced me to him. The man was a legend and exactly the kind of performer/musician I desperately wanted to be (but never became).

2:50 That’s Victor Borge. He was a stage comedian and musician. What made him famous his that he combined the two. Definitely great material for Public Television.
In Tim Minchin's "3 minute song" he makes a joke about how Victor Borge became such a standard for musical comedy that it not only laid the groundwork for people like him but gave him a constant point of comparison.
Stilgoe and Skellern are the only other musical comedians I've seen come close to Victor Borge and Tim Minchin in terms of piano playing skills AND comedy, the sheer genius of Richard Stilgoe being able to take any 6 or 7 random things the audience shout out and write a funny rhyming song about them in the time it took Peter Skellern to play just 2 piano songs amazes me still.
"There's no us it's just me." I'm pretty sure MJ won't appreciate her erasure from the company.
I lost it at "You're two years old" "No I"m not."
Also, don't worry, the "women need their own oatmeal" thing is definitely weird.
I don’t understand why we need our own oatmeal
@@someone___1240 because marketing
by the oatmeal logic, i want nonbinary corn flakes
I want iron in my oatmeal tho that's cool
Tlontb, the NB Ukrainian Army Ball love this.
I love this series with a passion. I haven't heard the Clorox, Chef Boyardee, and Chips Ahoy ads since I was like 9 years old
When you looped that last part of "mama's got the magic," that was exactly how I remembered that commercial when I was a kid. It would get stuck in my head for hours at a time just repeating that one part.
I remember in public school when those listerine packs came out we would dare each other to hold the entire pack’s worth of sheets in our mouth and my god did it ever burn.
We convinced some kid that it was a tab of acid and he started acting like he was tripping like an hour later.
@@HookedonChronics God I miss gullible kids. I once convinced a girl that all sparkling water was actually vodka. She started coming to school "drunk".
I did 12 once my sinuses were clear for a day(had childhood asthma lol)
Seeing this recorded in VHS makes me nostalgic... something about the grainy shittyness of vhs recording takes me back to a more happy time. Stay safe dude!
Agreed, I absolutely love the way this was recorded.
And forgetting whats coming next, I had a friend over one time and i put on a tape that had the hot wheels cartoon. But kept forgetting how many other shows where on before it
That Burma shave sounded so familiar and then I remembered The House on the Rock has a bunch of those signs up on a wall.
That grandma segment made me laugh for longer than it should’ve.
“Lucky for us this tape does include commercial breaks...” I’d only ever hear that on this channel
nezquick there’s whole compilations of old ads on RUclips. I hate modern ads but the early 2k and before stuff is just nostalgic as hell. I guess this is the only channel you’d hear that from but he’s not alone for sure.
Mike Powell still holds that long jump record actually, 29 years later.
Damn, son, that _is_ a long jump.
I'm sorry.
He is just now re-entering our atmosphere

I love those old PBS documentaries.
We didn't have cable when I was little, and PBS was one of the few stations I could pick up clearly with an antenna in my room.
I watched a lot.
Seeing them now take me back to those evenings when I couldn't go back outside, so after I choked down my mother's cooking I'd go to my room and watch PBS. No matter what they were running.
As a Wisconsin resident, I can confirm that Menards commercials are still today in 2023 effectively indistinguishable from those old commercials in the tapes
Just waiting for when Ian finds lost media on one of his tapes and puts some years-old manhunt to rest lmao
I found an unlabeled tape. On it was Anal Intruders vol. 1-3 😯
That would be absolutely amazing!
i believe the reason she takes such a round about way of saying "low prices" is because low prices makes it sound cheap an people don't want cheap, they want quality for a low price, so "always on sale" sounds better than cheap, because something on sale COULD be quality, but something cheap could be cheap for SO many reasons.
Sounds right. "It's cheap because I'm nice enough to sell such a fabulous, premium quality product to you at a reduced price, not because it's cheaply made!"
I have the other stereotype: low prices simply mean they're not overcharging. While always on sale means they have problems selling it due a high amount of returns or negative reviews, so I always double check items that are often on sale for reviews online.
6:49 i'm sorry but that's top class wholesome dad jokes right there.
5:22 That song is called Hungarian Rhapsody. It is classic meme song. Tom and Jerry had a whole special featuring it.
Re: Scrubbing Bubbles: I think it's supposed to be a literal scrubbing bubble. The bottom brush part is the "scrubbing" and the top is the "bubble."
The real question: does it know it exists in a body so temporary? Do living bubbles fear death??
I thought that was obvious, painfully so. How could he not see that?
@@floyd2386 Maybe because the design is too opaque. They look solid white on top, not translucent the way you'd expect a bubble to be. It took me years to see it myself for this reason. When I was a kid I just assumed that was maybe a specific design of a bathroom-cleaning brush.
I always thought it was some kind of brush you held in the palm of your hand. Kinda weird now that i think about it
@@wjdelu6758 That's what I used to think, too.
BASF, in German "Badische Anilin- & Soda-Fabrik" is a German chemical company in Mannheim and the second largest chemical producer in the world. In the early 1960s and 1970s, they started making cassettes for video and music.
Today, BASF is the largest chemical company in the world and is active in the fields of dyes, plastics, finishing, crop protection, oil and gas and even nutrition in 170 countries around the world. In Ludwigshafen am Rhein/Mannheim, where it all started, is the largest chemical area in the world with 2,000 buildings on 10 square kilometers.
Oh I didn't knew BASF made VHS tapes, I knew of them as they're quite present in Poland from where I am
@@moramento22 I only know them from VHS tapes and Floppy Disks. Norwegian national here.
BASF does a lot of stuff. They produce products for the chemical and automobile industry as well as stuff like VHS tapes back in the days. BASF alone holds 110,000 patents.
At BASF we don't make a lot of the things you buy, we make a lot of the things you buy better.
No wonder that tape packaging looked so familiar. Im German and I remember my mother used to buy these.Certainly a blast from the past, let me tell you
The Iowa Senate debate from 2002 opened a point in my mind from which I was so young and had no idea what was going on, but the old KCRG logo was so nostalgic.
I started off with your microwave dinner food reviews, but I have to say I’m loving these throw back mystery VHS reviews!! Love your content and style thank you for sharing!!
