We thought those days would last forever. Getting dressed up to shop at the mall, going out to eat, best music, best television …. Christmas was outstanding ❤
well why would we think otherwise? they got rid of everything that was great, only an evil person gets rid of what works. and I gladly refuse to live in the 21st century!
@@gigi9301Well when you were a kid, it would start for me anyway a little after 🎃Halloween🎃. Then the Thanksgiving holiday season would start. But one thing that always got kids revved up for 🎄Christmas🎄, the JC Penny's Christmas Catalog and the Sears Wish Book. Those would come out in mid October if I remember correctly. I remember many nights when I'd sit upstairs in my bed, 🔦flashlight🔦 on under my blankets paging through the Penny's Christmas Catalog. Not just toys, but every single page. I used to love looking for stuff for my Mom, Dad, and especially my Grandpa and Grandma. Then the holiday television specials. Charlie Brown's the Great Pumpkin, the Muppets, and all the other specials. The city would start to light up. Trees everywhere illuminated in many colors. We had a city block called Candy Cane Lane where EVERY SINGLE house would decorate their homes in elaborate ways. Now it's so big overhead planes can see it as they come into Milwaukee. Church always was special leading up to Christmas as well. After Thanksgiving and up until Christmas Day it was always one of the best times. I agree that Christmas didn't really kick in until after Thanksgiving. Your right about that. But kids see things a bit differently...lol.
What I'd give to be able to go back for just one day; hug my Grandparents, smell my Grandma's kitchen, to wake up Saturday morning and watch Cartoons, to ride my bike all day and return home when the street light came on, to dance with my Mama as a little girl in the living room, I'd hug everyone so tightly. I'd taste and smell everything one more time as a kid.
Oh you brought back so many wonderful childhood memories. Grandma baking her loaves of 🍞bread🍞! The entire house would smell sooo good! Or her cakes. Always wanting to lick the spoon! Mmmm. Thanksgiving dinner at home was awesome. It sadly would have a few nasty words said at times, but overall it was nice. We ended up eventually going out for dinner which I wasn't a fan of.
Yes yes yes. I'd love to be able to experience those things just one more time, and hug all of the people who are now gone. It was truly such a special time. And you don't even realize it entirely, until you look back and realize you'll never experience any of it again.
It’s not nostalgia for youth, it’s innocence lost, which SHOULD make good people mourn. Cynics be damned, you can’t play with fire and not get burned. Morality isn’t a trend, it’s a better way of life. The good news is there is always hope if we turn to Jesus.
I know I was thinking the same thing,it’s hysterical!…Now we’re watching six hours of commercials and wanting more😂😂….All the wonderful nostalgia,thank goodness for you tube and the awesome people who put these together…❤
I used to love watching television in during Christmas time. The commercials were always spectacular and special. And they always had the epic look and feel. The Norelco Razor with 🎅Santa🎅 riding it over snow covered hills. The Clydesdale Horses pulling a carriage though the snow. Coca-Cola Bears, and those always great Toys"R"Us commercials! Ahh memories!
Is it just me or has 🎄Christmas🎄lost it's special feeling? Not just as a kid either, but overall it seems as though Christmas doesn't have that special feeling that the 70's, 80's, and 90's had. Everything was better, the television shows, the ambience of the stores, the food was much better it seemed, and it just felt a lot more special. Especially for me as a kid. There was the JC Penny's Christmas Catalog and the Sears Wish Book. That stretch between 🎃👻Halloween👻🎃 to 🦃🦃Thanksgiving🦃🦃, then that long stretch until Christmas Day! There were all of the classics, It's a Great 🎃Pumpkin🎃 Charlie Brown. Then of course there was the Grinch from Dr.Suess, ⛄☃️Frosty the⛄Snowman☃️⛄, the legendary Rudolph the Red🔴Nosed🦌Reindeer🦌, a Charlie Brown Christmas 🎄and a few others. Everything was set around that day. Now it just seems to have lost it's luster?
No, it's definitely not just you. I recently turned 56, so I was a child, growing up in the 70s, and Christmas seemed a lot more special back then. Well, the whole holiday season did (Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's Eve and Day). Even Black Friday has lost its luster, since a lot of stores start running specials before Thanksgiving, there's no anticipation for BF.
@@kurthanke5788 I absolutely agree!! Online shopping's played a large part in destroying the magic of the Christmas season. It was about being festive and dressing up, now you've got people going to the store in pajamas. Toys are made so cheaply now, and corporate greed's at an all time high. Not only that, just about everything's loaded with social justice or political propaganda in some form. It's just sad. Those days were a lot more wholesome.
Words do not do justice to express how much I love these memories. My dad was alive. My mom was strong and healthy. I had no bills and just loved waking up in the morning.
Stumbled across this randomly, meant to watch only the first 10 mins, welp, here I am still watching into 2 hours, this is a amazing time capsule clip!
Apologies to all of the other great Christmas commercial mixes on RUclips, but this one has to be the best. Its certainly my favorite. As others have noted, there is just something special and comforting about these commercials. Maybe it's the nostalgia, maybe it was a simpler time for many of us when we had fewer cares/worries. The build-up to Christmas in the80s was just so magical. There was no streaming and therefore TV was SO important. I would read the newspaper tv listings (or tv guide) to find all of the Christmas tv shows/specials, and circle them to be sure not to miss anything. Even though my life rarely resembled the images in many of these commercials (we never had a fireplace!), it was always a special time depicted (family....lots of food...and warmth in the house). As someone stated already, I had no idea that when I was watching these commercials IN the 80s, it would the best time of my life (and I didn't realize it). Even the commercials promoting the Christmas specials were amazing. Positive vibes for all out there who are watching this video and reading this comment. Peace.
Oh how how it’s changed. Loved the 70s 80s 90s Christmas, its so different now. Example, a customer of mine, gave me a box of nuts before Christmas. He said we don’t celebrate Christmas, I am just giving you this a a thank you for the year. I never heard anything like this growing up.
It’s funny that back then, we wanted those commercials to end and just get back to the program and now, we’re watching 6hrs of them, bringing us back to the good old days and I love it!! Thanks for posting. No, I didn’t watch it in one sitting obviously, 😆!
Ahhhhhh....!!! My childhood revisited! Back in the ancient days, I was patient enough to sit through EVERY SINGLE commercial during my favourite programmes like The Flintstones, The Golden Girls, Wonder Woman, Charlie's Angels, Laverne and Shirley, Roseanne, Mama's Family, The Carol Burnette Show, Alice, Diff'rent Strokes, The Facts of Life, The Jeffersons, What's Happening, The Munsters, The Addams Family, Small Wonder, Silver Spoons, Kids Incorporated, Jem, Bugs Bunny and the Tweety Show, The Jetsons, Mighty Mouse, and on and on.....
I noticed that during Christmas 2023, there were very few Christmas themed commercials on tv. I believe that is why Hallmark network movies are so popular. There used to be a Hallmark movie special on CBS, good movies too. Now it seems we must be quiet and just let Christmas slip pass.
No more Charlie Brown Christmas on TV, something that was on every year. I felt that loss so I bought the movie for our family to keep the tradition of watching that movie alive.
Totally agree. Maybe its just the 'streaming mentality' and no one watches traditional tv anymore? I will turn on the Hallmark channel just to let the christmas movies roll in the background.
@@hopegrimsley3427 Well, the main reason why I do not always love Christmas commercials from the 1980s is because they are too boring, same goes for Christmas commercials from the 1950s, 1960s, 1970s, and the 1990s. I prefer Christmas commercials from the 2000s to present day, because they are very fun.
@10:35 Zales commercial. The baby boomer man in the commercial was able to buy both his parents diamond jewelry for Christmas. Those days are long gone. Most people can't even afford food now.
@@cherrywilson6267 That has nothing to do with the point. And if CEO's can be paid $20 to $30 million per year, I think a person who can flip burgers or make a taco can be paid $75,000 per year. Because a CEO is not worth 350 to 500 times more than a fast food worker.
If I gave anyone a Time magazine as a gift in my family they would look at me like I had lost my mind and wouldn't be surprised if they throw it right back at me, lol.
Oh my gosh yes! Or go to penny’s and roam the rest of the mall then hit Sizzler! I’m probably a little older than you, I didn’t have a vcr till I was a little older. But my family would sit and watch a Christmas special together. My mom would save for us to have a Christmas ....she had a Christmas fund at the bank. It was magical.
This collection is great. The video is great quality, but the audio is even better. How were you able to get such good audio from a VHS tape? I have multiple SVHS players, but the tapes are so old there is serious degradation. I clean up the audio in Davinci Resolve, but I can't get it anywhere near this clear. Were these from tapes digitized a long time ago? Either way, amazing job on the collection.
My absolute FAVORITE AS A KID was the fruity pebbles commercial, it always seemed to give me that feeling and it always start showing Thanksgiving day. Damn I miss being a kid!!
Strong families still have magic . But in order for kids to get the magic we did..you need a mom and dad who don’t prioritize being on their phones to teach kids to engage with other people ...but those parents are more and more rare.
I just saw a McDonald’s commercial about their gift certificates.. there were certificates labeled .50 cents on them… compared to today, gift cards are usually $15-$25 cheapest ones
Is anyone other than me dialing these phone numbers just to see who we get? Because I want those 52 weekly copies of Time magazine for only $31.00. God, I KNEW stuff was bigger when we were kids... Look at the size of those Hallmark Christmas cards! They're like, 10 by 12!
It’s not just you, I know exactly what you’re saying! Everything has changed and nothing was for the better😢. I like to turn on these old commercials on the big tv while I clean or do laundry because it makes me happy just hearing them❤️❤️❤️
this past holiday season I had a real rough time getting into Christmas because not just what's going on in the world but there was little to nothing on television to remind me it was Christmas time. No christmas commercials just holiday commercials to hint to us that it's christmas. Little to no christmas shows on television just the same 10 boring movies they air every year because they have to. For me personally it was one of the worst seasons I have ever seen in my life. Christmas back in the 80's and 90's and even in the 2000's was really something. It used to be magical .
The Folgers coffee commercial “Peter Comes Home” (15:29 - 16:13) … Peter played Doug’s fat camp coach in an episode of *King of Queens* … the episode was called; “Veiled Threats” … and the episode aired on November 19, 2001. His real name is Greg Wrangler.
Ahhhhh! Just found this wonderful time machine! Definitely got my sub! Thanks for all your wonderful work getting this all together, very appreciated! 😂😂😂
The 80's was a time when America still had its feet on the ground, and the Christmas season was a warm, pleasant time of year for the entire nation. By the way, the woman @4:39 is Mrs. Susan Akin. She is a stunning beauty - well-deserving of the title of Miss America 1986.
Christmas specials, department store displays, firehouse/storefront train layouts, bonfires at the Christmas tree stand, last minute hustle and bustle on Christmas Eve, catalogs...what happened? I would just say it's nostalgia, I'm just remembering the warmth of my youth. But I argue that a massive change has taken place in the last 20 or so years. I hate to sound this way but it's yet another piece of culture that the last couple generations have inherited and set fire to.

Actual heart and soul in these commercials! Nowadays it’s all about crude vulgarity and not funny comedy..
No it isn't you weirdo
I saw some kids on your lawn.
0:11 Ernest Saves Christmas!
This is epic and perfect. I can get so much work done with this on in the background.
Thank you for this you really brought me back to when I was growing up spot on and I am able to sleep now thanks man!
Omg this is FANTASTIC!! You're THE BEST! I subscribed!
Is anyone other than me dialing these phone numbers just to see who we get?
Because I want those 52 weekly copies of Time magazine for only $31.00.
God, I KNEW stuff was bigger when we were kids...
Look at the size of those Hallmark Christmas cards! They're like, 10 by 12!
These choke me up.
Thank you for sharing this. I didn't realize some of these places were even open then. Love this thanks again. ❤❤❤
It’s not just you, I know exactly what you’re saying! Everything has changed and nothing was for the better😢. I like to turn on these old commercials on the big tv while I clean or do laundry because it makes me happy just hearing them❤️❤️❤️
The Folgers commercial at 15:33 is one of my all--time favorites. A true classic!
Fun for us to enjoy around this Christmas holiday
I wish I would’ve realized it then but my life was basically perfect in the 80’s
this past holiday season I had a real rough time getting into Christmas because not just what's going on in the world but there was little to nothing on television to remind me it was Christmas time. No christmas commercials just holiday commercials to hint to us that it's christmas. Little to no christmas shows on television just the same 10 boring movies they air every year because they have to. For me personally it was one of the worst seasons I have ever seen in my life. Christmas back in the 80's and 90's and even in the 2000's was really something. It used to be magical .
Pre 🤡🌎 When the music and women were hot 🔥 The 80s, you had to be there.
Wonderful memories of being a young mom of two at this time. They're the last gen to know what it's like before and after the internet. Sad.
The Folgers coffee commercial “Peter Comes Home” (15:29 - 16:13) … Peter played Doug’s fat camp coach in an episode of *King of Queens* … the episode was called; “Veiled Threats” … and the episode aired on November 19, 2001. His real name is Greg Wrangler.
Wow remember actually needing film and a TV Guide??
Love the tv guide. Collected them 😂did the crossword puzzle n the back😂
Remember that awful buzzing sound your camera would make when you ran out film? 😂
Ahhhhh! Just found this wonderful time machine! Definitely got my sub! Thanks for all your wonderful work getting this all together, very appreciated! 😂😂😂
This is amazing.!!!!!!
That is so wonderful that, tears came in to my eyes. I’m questioning my self??? were are we get lost! and, no longer have that fun 🙏🙏🙏
This makes me so happy
I loved Christmas shopping
I love these old commercials, thanks for sharing with us my friend, i just subscribed! 👍😊
Do you have your muppet babies live shows commercials or videos?
what a great era and miss all those who passed on ,,,
Christmas back then definitely had a different feel. ❤
Lionel Kiddie City! My first after school job in 1989. Ah memories 😊
Beautiful
Look at those prices 😮
I miss the old Ronco Christmas commercials. 😢
Me too! I loved those.
The 80's was a time when America still had its feet on the ground, and the Christmas season was a warm, pleasant time of year for the entire nation. By the way, the woman @4:39 is Mrs. Susan Akin. She is a stunning beauty - well-deserving of the title of Miss America 1986.
Thanks for the bookmark 🔖. Is she still as pretty in 2024?
@@PraveenSrJ01 I think so. Looking at more recent photos of her, it’s hard to believe she’s old enough to have been Miss America 1986.
Are we watching 6 hrs of commercials? Who would have thought?
Christmas specials, department store displays, firehouse/storefront train layouts, bonfires at the Christmas tree stand, last minute hustle and bustle on Christmas Eve, catalogs...what happened? I would just say it's nostalgia, I'm just remembering the warmth of my youth. But I argue that a massive change has taken place in the last 20 or so years. I hate to sound this way but it's yet another piece of culture that the last couple generations have inherited and set fire to.
Finally! It took me weeks, months even, but I've watch the whole six hour video. 😎
