I find it funny that we now do whatever we can so we can get out of watching commercials now...but here we are watching commercials. Just shows how downhill commercials have gotten...they are not enjoyable like these are. I have been a watcher for a long time and I love going back and watching them all over again. Thank you for these.
Big League Chew....reminds me of those candy cigarettes they used to sell in the store when I was a kid. Never looked at Alvin and the Chipmunks cause I was eager to look at Spiderman and his Amazing Friends. Nerd guy...wow have times changed. Now it is cool to be a nerd but for years you were an outcast for being one. Now these schools need the nerds cause they raise the test average of the school and the teachers keep their jobs. Thank you for posting this...you are awesome.
I've said this before...but this might be the most truly 80's volume on here. Mr. T...Check! Star Wars toys...Check! (I had those speeder bikes, and got Jabba the Hutt for Christmas 1983) McDonalds...Check! (That commercial has been in my head forever, we could never do the 'moonwalk' that guy did!) And that Hi-C commercial. Every time I hear 'shooby doo wah' I hear 'Hiiiii-ceeee' afterward.
The voice over in the Slam Shifters ad did the voiceovers for DATSUN back in the day! There's a Datsun in this ad! The Nerdrage IS strong in the Star Wars ad! OUTRAGE!
The Japanese Transforming toys made by Takara that the American Transformers line were based on came out first. The Go Bots have always been Transformer knock offs, Tonka just beat Hasbro to the punch in releasing them here. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Transformers_(toy_line)
I can confirm my brother had the speeder bike and rancor monster and a whole slew of Star Wars toys that we don't know what happened to them to this day lol
Don't quote me, but I think the reason they still make Big League Chew is that it actually became popular with ball players, and many of them would start chewing it to give up their dip habit.
Pretty cool to see what my younger cousins were watching and wondering what the hell they were non-stop badgering about it to my aunts, lol! The only ones I can recall are "One To Grow On", Big League Chew, and possibly Jell-O Pudding pops, although, probably not this one; most likely with Bill Cosby. I was 16 at this time so cartoons weren't on my Saturday schedule. My dad had my brother and I working our asses off!
The Donkey Kong Jr. cereal wasn't nothing to write home about. It tasted like a wanna be Trix. I remember my grandma buying it for me a few times, because I had the video game. The Donkey Kong cereal wasn't bad though, and was rather good. They were pretty much barrel shaped capn crunch.
My favorite is the toons from 1988-1996, also including two that I also liked started around 1986 (Care bears, MLP Gen.1), I did see them because they were still around when I was young (I was born in the 90s) Gen.1 MLP inspired me to be a brony with Gen.4!
So did kids watch The A-Team or something? Or was Mister T on at the same time as that series? I'm not sure if we even have an equivalent to that cartoon series today (or even back in the 90's).

Love these Saturday Morning commercials! The Hi-C jingle brings back fond 80s memories. Thanks.
I miss the 80s, good times

Commercials from this era that are near and dear to my heart. Thank you once again.
Answering the question "just how did Spud develop his lovably quirky personality?"
haha yesss
Man..I miss these wonderful years.
too young to remember these, but heck Id go back any day.
This is what I watched growing up as a little kid.. I remember all this.
The kid from Revenge of the Nerds is in the HI-C commercial!
Also, BRING BACK PUDDING POPS!!! Donkey Kong Jr cereal was one of my favorites
Wormser!
I've said this before...but this might be the most truly 80's volume on here.
Mr. T...Check!
Star Wars toys...Check! (I had those speeder bikes, and got Jabba the Hutt for Christmas 1983)
McDonalds...Check! (That commercial has been in my head forever, we could never do the 'moonwalk' that guy did!)
And that Hi-C commercial. Every time I hear 'shooby doo wah' I hear 'Hiiiii-ceeee' afterward.
Thank you so much for continuing to release new volumes! It's such a great time machine and your efforts are much appreciated.
The voice over in the Slam Shifters ad did the voiceovers for DATSUN back in the day! There's a Datsun in this ad!
The Nerdrage IS strong in the Star Wars ad! OUTRAGE!
Look at all of those 80s fashions. :)
i can watch these old adds for hours,but when i see current adds on tv i must pop it off...
It's a bonus when these are from my hometown station
I loved alvin and the chipmunks
I miss these days.
I love these Star Wars commercials :D
yes thank you for the Star Wars ads and all your great work
Brings Back so Many memories
The McDonald's commercial summed up the 80's pretty good.
Thank you for uploading these. :)
Good quality for being 30 years old
I have a feeling that's not the dad in the Go Bots commercial, but just the lonely guy down the street
Great Video. You know what Sucks for the Go Bots? they were around first, Before the transformers....and nobody cares. No Film Franchise for them :(

I was 10 months old when this aired.
I can confirm my brother had the speeder bike and rancor monster and a whole slew of Star Wars toys that we don't know what happened to them to this day lol
Best memories ever

OMG I'd forgotten all about that Hi-C commercial!
The actor in the red looks familiar, any idea who it is?

If that elephant is not voiced by Don Messick, I'll be surprised.
Funny thing about Big League Chew. Many MLB players at the time were actually using it to wean themselves off of chewing tobacco.
Mr. T proved working in the same business as did Olivier that there's room for everyone. 🙄

Gen.1 MLP inspired me to be a brony with Gen.4!
Choco Crunch? *Googles*
So Cap'n Crunch mixed with Cocoa Puffs? That actually does sound nice.
Donkey Kong Jr Cereal: The giraffe scares me in that one.
That kid in the basketball one was sad :(
So did kids watch The A-Team or something? Or was Mister T on at the same time as that series? I'm not sure if we even have an equivalent to that cartoon series today (or even back in the 90's).
I was 10 and yes watched both tv series
i wonder what happened to the saturday morning cartoons that abc, cbs, and nbc used to air?
"Powered by your _fist_!"
McDonalds was better back then...now, i dont even touch the stuff..
Brings Back so Many memories
