I was born in 1960. Of every period that has come and gone, I'm truly grateful to have grown up exactly when I did. The 60's and the '70's was a magical time 💖💙💛💜
That could not have been stated with keeping your comment most respectable to the capitalism only way offered way of life which is slowly over consuming the planet to the point that finding the next planet to over consume before it's over isn't possible. The mass population are mined indoctrinated to be scientifically efficient at creating their own future Extinction. Either we learn how to stop over consuming and stop over copulating or there will be nothing left for future Generations. It's because people have a tendency to cover it and buy and coverage by and coverage and by every covetable thing produced by his fellow man creating the money empowered hierarchies and the masses of poor people who used to be able to exist predominantly free of charge. Because God created this planet to provide for us predominantly free of charge but Mass populations of humans love the excessive convenience of money instead of God & His natural complex symbiotic relationships that sustain life in God's Creation. Seek first God and care for His natural creation. And the rest will be added unto you. Put mankind's prideful science of excessive organization and efficiency has blinded mankind to the fact that all his provision used to be free of charge if we only take care of nature and live in size limited populations. Is it too late to return to the Village Way of Life. Commercialistic capitalism controls the minds of the mass populations by way of their love of coveting and purchasing everything the corporations have for us to buy. So it appears that the overcomplication of what used to be a simplistic way of life has become snuffed out by the science of overcomplication which keeps us all buying the excessive things of convenience and opulence as nature of free-of-charge provision slowly & surely becomes over-consumed & over-toxicified in the process. If we don't get back to the simplistic way of provisioning: by (helping eachother daily accomplishing the necessary Toil of simplistic chores & duties required) by nurturing nature for our "adequate provision": it will soon be too late; to even try to return - to simplicity. Those who believe get higher intellect owning of the Earth is the right way will always exist because God let it be through man's Pride. But if those who own the Earth don't let that return and not purchasing everything that have to sell us there will be no more hope of slowing down or possibly even preventing the fast approaching end. Although what's the excessive pride of man becomes eliminated and the rest of mankind surrender their existence to God then is when the meek will finally inherit the earth to utilize as the garden of natural "predominately -free-of-charge provision": it was originally intended to be. But if we were allowed to make a very well organized shareable via the Internet example way of life of how to better utilize nature for our provision we could sell the Surplus outside our village borders in order to give to our Master overlords who believe they should own the Earth. God never said we can't go back to nurturing the Earth for our provision but it's up to our overlords to allow it to be and we will give them some of the surplus of what our way of life produces if they will only release it from this slavery to money thing to the highest degree possible before it's too late. Why wouldn't we give them free of charge food as our tax payment if they could be so kind.
I don't remember most of these commercials, but I sure remember the products. I remember their feel, look, taste, and/or smell. Some of these commercials really surprised me, never knew they existed. It is like a time machine.
was life simple for those that had to fight in some jungle far away from home seeing their friend killed or damage beyond repair. many of them killed themself in the years after. yeah life was simple, only for a select few.
Yes, I started smoking Kools when I was 16, as my father allowed me to smoke, since he smoked at about the same age as me when he started...Different times.
I was born in 1963 it was totally different back then. I remember when I was about 7 years old my mom give me money and a note and I will go to the store and I would get her cigarettes and soda or whatever she needed was on the Note boy times have changed.
My mom used to tell stores about how her Dad used to look forward to the new fall TV season because that’s when the new car ads would come out. My Grandpa loved cars.
Born in 1966, but still have enough memory to know that when the internet went online and cell phone became prevalent, we entered a shitty, lousy, low class, insane world of greed and LOOK AT ME... I miss the 70's and my wife (1962) is in full agreement.
uhmm i think you have to search for the issue with yourself, how easy is it to blame technology for your own failures. its like blaming your child for your own fuckups.
Noticed a couple of complainers on here... don't watch..... unsubscribe would be options to to those. This is pure enjoyment for lots of us who lived those days and would love to be back in those times. Well...I for one would love to. I'm ALWAYS thinking of better days. Car commercials.....👍👍👍
United Airlines suffered blowback from the wives travel with their husband promotion. The airline would send a thank you card to the husbands home thanking the wife for participating...problem was many wives had not used the UA promotion...the husband's mistress did!
Careful you’re showing your age. Ha. I remember seeing this during the evening news along with the Contac commercial :Button up your overcoat. It feels like a short ride. JD
Yes, me too and that was my very favorite song at the time. Remember also that the cereal boxes use to have these little toys you could build ? Those were the days. I miss the late 60's early 70's. Compared to what it's like now in 2024, it almost seems like paradise. Oh I know there was a lot of things back then that weren't good, but there was a lot that was. and that's the part I want to focus on. The fun, the beauty of those muscle cars, the fashions, all of it.
I was born in 1960; so I remember 1969 well. It was a great time to be a kid, kids today don't know what they really missed. No Internet, no cell phones, no social media, and yet, we lived our childhood to the fullest, today's kids don't.
"DARK SHADOWS"😨 !!! I remember that TV Program. My cousin and I would always wait for the near end of the Program when the vampire would appear and expose his fangs. We would always become frightened by that image, but it was like we couldn't help ourselves and just had to witness that everyday 😂. Kids are just so unusual like that.
finally someone mentioning vietnam, for some reason everyboy forgets the 1000 kia a month rate in 1969. yeah why remember, its easier to remember the happy stuff, how retarded.
@@patrickwade3150 Yep, when I was a little child, even up to the late 1960s people did dress up, it was a really special experience, I know jets have been around a long time now but I am always in awe when I am flying at 35,000 above the ground, still think it is a very special experience.
I am so glad that you have this type of channel. I’m really enjoying these commercials. I’m going to be 62 in August and when these commercials were out, I was only seven and some I remember and some I don’t, but it’s really wonderful to hear them all. Thank you. 22:08
another great compilation of tv commercials fred! I was 13 in 1969 and many of these I remember well. tv commercials I feel were so much better back then, quick and to the point as well as entertaining. real fun to see these again and the pleaseant memories they brought back thanks! rob
The only good thing about these boring commercials is at least they're warning people what a disaster this crap can be, and that basically Drs. can kill us with that stuff. What I find even more frustrating is that some of the best channels showing the old tv shows right now, want to bombard us with how to file a lawsuit after the Docs make you sick. There's several great tv channels where you can watch the old tv series for hours now, and you could almost forget what era you're in, if you ddidn't have to see those annoying file a lawsuit ads.
You know what Brucifer, ain't that the truth!!! But you know what Brucifer, I don't take any pharmaceuticals. Food is the only medicine that I take and it does my body well along with a good brisk five mile walk four or five times a week. I'm good to go. : - )
To have been 6 years old when the calendar ticked over from the 1950s to 1960 -- Didn't realize how lucky I was. In the next 10 years you knew something very different was happening...
FredFlix Honeycombs prize would be a good place to start for 'Cereal Prizes of Yesteryear' video Also, now I want KFC tonight with a Cloris Leachman movie ! 😁
7:16 the distinctive voice of John Connell for Dial. If you watch a lot of these commercial compilations from the 60s through the 80s, you'll notice that he voices a ton of national spots. He was never as well known as, say, Casey Kasem, Peter Thomas or Mason Adams, but John Connell was an all-time great voice-over talent.
"@brentmann2988" My understanding is that Casey Kasem was the voice of "Shaggy" in Scooby Doo, but if not he definitely was the voice of "Alexander" in Josie and The Pussycats.
🌟What a FANTASTIC piece of work you created Fred!!! Such classics!!! The McDonalds ad you deserve a break today commercial is so iconic! Marcia Brady collecting her new Barbie, a bit of marketing genius right there! And there was nothing in comparison to coming home from school and having an ice cold Pepsi to drink from an ice cold glass Pepsi bottle!!! I really loved that Pontiac GTO ad by Paul Revere and the Raiders!!! SO GROOVY MAN! SO COOL! Thank you for another brilliant compilation trip through FREDFLIX wayback machine!🌟
Worst mistake I ever made. I traded in my sister's original classic Barbie for a discounted "Twist-n-Turn" Barbie, little knowing that her old Barbie would be worth considerably more than mine....
It depends which one. Most bubblecut's are worth less than the 1967 twist n turn, and with all vintage Barbie and friends, the condition has to be great. Some people have dolls with wear to the body, hair that's been cut or is just a mess, missing face paint, and think they have gold.
We, too, little girls got screwed big time in the early 60's, when our local Bambergers Department Store (now a Macys) had a promotion, whereby we could trade our original Barbie " heads", for a a "bubblecut" Barbie head, that, at that time, was all the rage. I turned in my original, classic auburn-haired, pony-tailed " head" (which was from my 1960 Barbie) for a black-haired " bubblecut". The worst mistake I ever made! Lol...They screwed over poor little kids, while knowing full well how much those original " heads" would someday be worth. So, I feel your pain!
Now's a great time to be alive as well! We've been witness to so many cool and unusual things. Technological advances are so amazing and rapid. The Internet is awesome! Etc... :)
@@j.m.starling9726 There was NOTHING sweet or romantic or healthy or sentimental about cigarettes. Our clothes, hair, skin, houses, cars, restaurants, planes, theaters, public transportation, stores, offices, pets, food, etc. reeked of smoke. My grandparents died of cancer and emphysema. They did not smoke but everyone else (family, friends, customers) did - except for my mother. But she still died of asthma and lung disease with a very large and very necessary oxygen tank in their bedroom. My father started smoking at 10 years old. He continued through World War II as Lucky Strike put cigarettes in everyone's knapsack. He then continued to smoke 3 packs a day until 1964 when I was 10 and he was 50. I had heard the "Surgeon General" say that smoking was bad for peoples' health. But if a person could cut the number of cigs smoked in half he/she could live more years. Not wanting to have my daddie die young I dreamed up a great plan to ensure that he could easily cut his smoking in half. I went to the buffet where the cigarette supply was stored. There were 3 cartons of them. I got a sharp knife and proceeded to open each pack in each carton. I then took the cigarettes out of each pack. I took the sharp knife and proceed to cut "each cigarette in half", thus making it easier for my father to "cut his smoking in half". (I honestly believed someone could smoke cigarette halves.) There were bunches and bunches of halved cigarettes but I didn't want to put them back in the packs and cartons yet so I put them in a brown paper bag ("plastic" was NOT an option then). I wanted to show my dad how easy it was going to be to reduce his smoking and thus his coughing and spitting up in the sink as he did for 10 minutes every morning upon waking up. So, the dog and I went to the side door to wait for my dad to get off the bus from the checkpoint and walk the block and a half to the house. [The dog knew the moment when the bus dropped "our" dad off.] We met him at the door with the brown bag full of cigs. He looked in the bag and I saw the expression of someone whose blood was boiling. [There was a LOT of money in the contents of that bag.] All I could do was express why I had murdered all of those cigarettes. "Daddie, I don't want you to die!!" He actually DID quit. It was THE most difficult thing he ever did. There were so many movements/activities/feelings/tastes associated with smoking. All of those habits had to be broken. He gained weight because he could actually taste food. Smoke stunk to him. He lived for 20 more years with a heart attack, bypass surgery by Dr. Denton Cooley, colon cancer, and then his final days with me catching his dark brown spit into boxes and boxes of Kleenex. He died when the the ice cream and other goodies I fed him didn't taste good any more. He just closed his mouth and shook his head "No". My mother had 4 more years. Her long time doctor said she just had so much wrong with her including her no longer capable lungs. The years rolled on. People smoked in open and closed offices and conference rooms when I started my work in engineering in 1976. Co-workers were angry at me when I asked them to please stop because any cigarette smoke almost shut down my lungs. Eventually, civilization changed, health values changed, and smoking became not cool. Now I live in a no smoking quadplex. But..., people visit the other occupants and some of them still smoke and have no understanding that smoke can get through walls, paint, fabric, wood, pipes, vents, the air, just about anything. To this day I have never actually smoked a cigarette. I didn't have to waste a bunch of money to buy the damn things. I just had to breathe to inhale the second hand smoke. I now have chronic asthma and COPD.
Remember the awesome Barbie clothes??? Even stockings, bras, etc! And the curlers, wigs, jewelry, the intricately sewn clothes! Barbie was better dressed than we were! And Barbie came in all sorts of hair colors! From blonde to brunette and even ash blonde and redhead!

The 1969 Mustang commercial paid homage to Laugh-In, top TV show at that time. Cigarette ads were everywhere. Boxes of sweet cereals always had kid prizes inside. Loved the ad for the rudimentary early computer football game. People today may not know how new the idea was of having white and black people together in ads at that time. The Pepsi commercial was revolutionary. I was 14 in 1969 and remember it all.
That computer football game was very rudimentary. The lights lit up when both players held down buttons after a play selection. The play outcomes were already determined so it was a matter of what and when buttons are pushed by whom. No computer board or anything. Very basic. ruclips.net/video/zRWxHX2SQJg/видео.html
ah yes very innocent, tell that the 1000 young americans that died monthly in 1969, even 1800 in 1968. Yes tell it their parents of those young kids, they were mostly 19-20 years old,, they were still teens, but were killed for no reason. daily 30-50 humanbeings just killed for nothing and then im not even mentioning all the Vietnamese people that also died that year. Thousands of them, as if they were nothing, but they were flesh and blood just like you and me. But we forget the bad thing and our stupid brains only remember the happy stuff. Well how retarded is that, but please take a moment for those, think about them that gave their life for nothing, for shit, for bullshit. it didnt bring them or their families anything only a waste of young human life, a whole generation was fu cked by people like Kissinger. I did a happy dance in last november when Kisssinger died, he should have been prosecuted as war criminal.
Gawd, what a coincidence! I saw a Barbie commercial that had Eve Plumb (Jan Brady) in it, and kiddingly said that Marcia's Barbie is better than hers. Now RIGHT HERE is a Barbie commercial with Marcia (Maureen McCormick) in it!
Another wonderful one, Fred. Got a little behind in my FredFlix watching. I didn't realize that the Three Stooges did a commercial (or was that a PSA?). The kinda scary thing is that once the Pepsi add started I could sing the entire song by memory! Probably haven't thought of that song in 40 years. Wow, the kind of trivia that's stored back there!
And it's good to hear that the Lost in Space Robot got his old job back doing voice over work. Dick Tufeld was a pretty prolific voice actor. Quite a few cigarette ads too.
Tom Harmon's grandchildren in the commercial are Tracy, Gunnar, and Matthew Nelson. Their parents are Tom's daughter Kristin and her then husband Ricky Nelson (TV and singing star). Tom is also the father of actor Mark and daughter Kelly (the Tic Tac commercial woman).
I know your post is 5 years old, but I had to respond! I thought it was fun that you mentioned the Nelson brothers. I’m an 80’s kid, and I saw Matthew and Gunnar Nelson in concert, in 1989! 😍😍
ahhhh i had the pleasure of meeting Maureen McCormick while i worked for a dentist in Beverly Hills, she is lovely sweet & GORGEOUS big super green eyes !!!!! i never saw that commercial how great is that to trade in Barbie OMG !!! thank you for these i love them a child named courtney always reminds me of maureen 🎀
39:00 Mclean Stevenson, (Col. Henry Blake) for Schlitz beer. Cool. Toss Across... can you imagine a kid today getting that as a gift and being happy about it? That guy narrating the Firebird commercial at 9:00 is Jason Evers who played Rael in the Star Trek TOS episode "Wink of an Eye"... I think?
Amazing all the television and pop culture references. At 13 I watched a lot of television, but still missed many of these commercials. Just depends on what time of the day it was--and what show. I did know all the laundry detergents. Funny story to show how ingrained they were...years later a co-worker asked me if I wanted to buy a raffle ticket for a basket of cheer. Not being a drinker, I actually thought it was for a basket of laundry detergent. Couldn't understand why anyone would want that.
Commercials were ran at different times due to the viewers watching at the time. Laundry detergent, that new amazing mop, Hoover, home appliances, makeup and hair care etc. during school and husbands work ours. Honey comb, cereals in general, toys all things a kid would ask for, after school. Cars, lawn mowers, handy trash cans, after 7 to 8ish. when husbands have eaten and finished their after work chores, who are now in their evening chair..... you did not advertise John Deer tractors to a NYC audience nor new Bentley to a Mid West farming area. Their was order and a routine to life then..... for the most part across all races and areas of the US....
In 1966, the first Noxzema shave cream commercial came out. Take it off. Take it all off... I was fascinated by that ad. I still use Noxzema shave cream, and I can get it in only one place. It's been over 50 years, and I suppose the ad men would be surprised that, for me anyway, it sells shaving cream!
Bardolino Michele I was too young to see that ad when it first aired, but when I viewed it on YT I instantly liked it. I like the thought of lime scented shave cream, I wish they still made that.
watershed44 I was 11 in 1966, and I didn't shave until I reached my late teens. I lived for 23 years in Kentucky and Noxzema was not available in my portion of the state. When I got back to Pennsylvania, I took it off. Took it all off! Hee, hee...
I was nine in 1969 from a family of seven of us. That year our oldest brother we didn't see often when he was twenty being all too busy biking on his Triumph,camping and going to rock concerts and he went to Woodstock!
Wow. Chevy Caprice had nozzles at the rear tires to spray “ liquid tire chain” onto the tread as you drive. That’s like something I expect to see in Speed Racer cartoons. 43:25
41:28. I don't remember the commercial, but I do remember the Pontiac Judge. I'll be 59 next Friday. Also, at 42:56, the '69 Chevy Caprice was way ahead of its time. Worth it to be pushing old age now, to have been young then!
It's amazing what went on in those commercials especially butts and Airlines..... Cigarettes that is. They made them seem like they were incredible and you had to have them not to mention they were killing you. The airline commercials were incredible because it made flying seem civilized maybe it was in those days but not today. At any rate quite creative Fred I really enjoyed this one!
Scott Petrone It was pretty civilised compared to today but the stewardesses took so much abuse from the male passengers and had to adhere to strict behaviors (like always plastering a smile on their faces even when they want to slap someone), ultra strict diets (because they weren't supposed to gain more than a few ounces), crazy dress codes (specifically for their undergarments), and they weren't allowed to date (if they did they had to quit)
1969, the year Richard M. Nixon became the 37th President of the USA, Woodstock became the Mother of rock concerts, We lost both President Eisenhower & Dorothy from "The Wizard of Oz ", the Gay people rebelled in NY, Moratorium protests flooded the nation, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, & Mike Collins became the first humans to land on the Moon (Americans, I say with pride), now the Red Chinese landed on the dark side of the moon. I guess they were listening to Pink Floyd.
Wow. Fred you are a master craftsmen. 6 yr old video. YT algorithm brought your videos to me just a few months ago. 😢. “A discount for bringing your wife” had me cracked. At the beginning, the “Mercury Dime” . As always Fred, thanks, you’re swell.
I was 3 years old but the 70s were magical. Yes there were tragic moments and those cannot be forgotten. However people and it didn't matter whether you were black, white, rich , poor, respected each other for the most part. I blame most of our problems today on the entertainment industry and the media. Back then Hollywood had morals and standards, the media told you facts. Today all that has gone out the window or whatever term you may use. Thanks for the memories. It's so wonderful to have them at the touch of a finger!!!!!!
And disabled kids were discouraged from attending mainstream schools if they just had a mild physical disability. The only people who go on about these kinds of things are the ones who never experienced any discrimination.
Well that was a blast from the past. I remember all of them. The commercial @26:40 something was an ALL STAR cast !! ( Leo Gorsey, Lon Chaney Jr, a guy from "Stalag 17", a film noir regular, the Highway Patrol guy or From "Cannon", a couple other very famous character actors. I wish I knew all their names. That was fun 😊👍
@@RevLeigh55 No doubt they dont know any of these stars. I'm amazed if I ask someone younger than myself about an older show, or actor they always answer with, "never heard of it"
Hank Austin Ha me too, remember trying to get home after school to watch this show, my parents would just laugh, they didn't have to monitor what we watched then.
I was the age of the kid in the Pepsi commercial....that song brought me right back to being that little. I am 63 now! I had a lot to live for sure....❤
I was born in 1960. Of every period that has come and gone, I'm truly grateful to have grown up exactly when I did. The 60's and the '70's was a magical time 💖💙💛💜
I know what you mean. I was born in 1963
Not really. Everybody was broke and people were mean to black folk.

Absolutely, born in 1960 also, and totally agree.

I can't believe I'm sitting here watching 45 mins of commercials. Back in the day commercial time was pee time.
Yesterday’s commercials are better than today’s shows.

I remember a cut out paper backed record on Honeycomb and it was the Archie’s sing “Honey, Honey, Sugar, sugar”
Yeah, I had the same cardboard record. I remember playing it and it actually worked. I was surprised.
I also remember Bobby Sherman record on the back of super sugar crisp.
Yes, me too and that was my very favorite song at the time. Remember also that the cereal boxes use to have these little toys you could build ? Those were the days. I miss the late 60's early 70's. Compared to what it's like now in 2024, it almost seems like paradise. Oh I know there was a lot of things back then that weren't good, but there was a lot that was. and that's the part I want to focus on. The fun, the beauty of those muscle cars, the fashions, all of it.
So do I.
I was born in 1960; so I remember 1969 well. It was a great time to be a kid, kids today don't know what they really missed. No Internet, no cell phones, no social media, and yet, we lived our childhood to the fullest, today's kids don't.
"DARK SHADOWS"😨 !!! I remember that TV Program. My cousin and I would always wait for the near end of the Program when the vampire would appear and expose his fangs. We would always become frightened by that image, but it was like we couldn't help ourselves and just had to witness that everyday 😂. Kids are just so unusual like that.
I just love the music of these commercials. I remember singing some as a kid.
My Dad went to Vietnam that year. We really enjoy watching your channel Mr. Fred!
My Dad too.
finally someone mentioning vietnam, for some reason everyboy forgets the 1000 kia a month rate in 1969. yeah why remember, its easier to remember the happy stuff, how retarded.
Pan Am..... gone but not forgotten.
Back when air travel was truly an adventure and people were excited about it!
AND NOW it's a railroad
@@arielfilmsinc1926 Rail travel was always in vogue, it's just making a resurgence, but I doubt it'll have the elegant trappings of the past.
People dressed for the flight, pretty nice.
@@patrickwade3150 Yep, when I was a little child, even up to the late 1960s people did dress up, it was a really special experience, I know jets have been around a long time now but I am always in awe when I am flying at 35,000 above the ground, still think it is a very special experience.
And now they wear pajamas and scruffy slippers. 😢
I am so glad that you have this type of channel. I’m really enjoying these commercials. I’m going to be 62 in August and when these commercials were out, I was only seven and some I remember and some I don’t, but it’s really wonderful to hear them all. Thank you. 22:08
You're welcome, Toni.
another great compilation of tv commercials fred! I was 13 in 1969 and many of these I remember well. tv commercials I feel were so much better back then, quick and to the point as well as entertaining. real fun to see these again and the pleaseant memories they brought back thanks! rob
The commercials were better I think because thought had to really go into them. Seems there was more imagination back then too.
All we have now is pharmaceutical commercials!
The only good thing about these boring commercials is at least they're warning people what a disaster this crap can be, and that basically Drs. can kill us with that stuff. What I find even more frustrating is that some of the best channels showing the old tv shows right now, want to bombard us with how to file a lawsuit after the Docs make you sick. There's several great tv channels where you can watch the old tv series for hours now, and you could almost forget what era you're in, if you ddidn't have to see those annoying file a lawsuit ads.
You know what Brucifer, ain't that the truth!!! But you know what Brucifer, I don't take any pharmaceuticals. Food is the only medicine that I take and it does my body well along with a good brisk five mile walk four or five times a week. I'm good to go. : - )
Haha yes that promotes the use of marijuana
I hate pharmaceutical commercials! The names of the drugs so stupid
2 minutes of side effects .
The good old days. When everything didn't come in a plastic bottle or wrapped in plastic.
The McDonald's commercial is from 1971. That was the year the "You Deserve A Break Today" slogan debuted.
To have been 6 years old when the calendar ticked over from the 1950s to 1960 -- Didn't realize how lucky I was. In the next 10 years you knew something very different was happening...
The Brady Bunch started in 1969 and I was 9. Marcia Brady and Barbie. Thanks for the memories.
You're welcome, Brent.
In 1969 i was 13. This was fun viewing, love the fashions. Feeling groovy with Cheerios was a kick. Thank you.
You're welcome, Evelyn.
Another great batch. Keep 'em coming. I have had hours of enjoyment from your videos.
Glad hear it, Barry.
FredFlix Honeycombs prize would be a good place to start for 'Cereal Prizes of Yesteryear' video
Also, now I want KFC tonight with a Cloris Leachman movie ! 😁
"Come to the Honeycomb Hideout!" Had forgotten about the Banana Splits hand-puppets - wish I still had one.
7:16 the distinctive voice of John Connell for Dial. If you watch a lot of these commercial compilations from the 60s through the 80s, you'll notice that he voices a ton of national spots. He was never as well known as, say, Casey Kasem, Peter Thomas or Mason Adams, but John Connell was an all-time great voice-over talent.
Thanks. I remember that voice from my childhood (will be 59 Friday) and wondered who it was.
"@brentmann2988" My understanding is that Casey Kasem was the voice of "Shaggy" in Scooby Doo, but if not he definitely was the voice of "Alexander" in Josie and The Pussycats.
@@obscurelyvague Yes, Casey Kasem was the voice of Shaggy.
Another delayed video I've just enjoyed so much. Pure nostalgia I never grow tired of. Thank you sooo much, Mr. FredFlix. :)
I was 5 yrs old lounging on my aunts teal shag pile carpet watching brady bunch, honey west, snd I dream of jeanie.😅
Thank you for your time and effort
Thanks, Dan.
🌟What a FANTASTIC piece of work you created Fred!!! Such classics!!! The McDonalds ad you deserve a break today commercial is so iconic! Marcia Brady collecting her new Barbie, a bit of marketing genius right there! And there was nothing in comparison to coming home from school and having an ice cold Pepsi to drink from an ice cold glass Pepsi bottle!!! I really loved that Pontiac GTO ad by Paul Revere and the Raiders!!! SO GROOVY MAN! SO COOL! Thank you for another brilliant compilation trip through FREDFLIX wayback machine!🌟
Glad you enjoyed it, Tammy.
@@FredFlix 😁
Worst mistake I ever made. I traded in my sister's original classic Barbie for a discounted "Twist-n-Turn" Barbie, little knowing that her old Barbie would be worth considerably more than mine....
Paula Harris Baca I thought the same thing. The original Barbies are worth more.
It depends which one. Most bubblecut's are worth less than the 1967 twist n turn, and with all vintage Barbie and friends, the condition has to be great. Some people have dolls with wear to the body, hair that's been cut or is just a mess, missing face paint, and think they have gold.
@@mariekatherine5238 Marcia Brady was on that commercial.
We, too, little girls got screwed big time in the early 60's, when our local Bambergers Department Store (now a Macys) had a promotion, whereby we could trade our original Barbie " heads", for a a "bubblecut" Barbie head, that, at that time, was all the rage. I turned in my original, classic auburn-haired, pony-tailed " head" (which was from my 1960 Barbie) for a black-haired " bubblecut". The worst mistake I ever made! Lol...They screwed over poor little kids, while knowing full well how much those original " heads" would someday be worth. So, I feel your pain!
@@birdsfan57 Sorry for your loss. However, if that was the very worst mistake you ever made, you’re very fortunate!
What a great time to be alive.
Now's a great time to be alive as well! We've been witness to so many cool and unusual things. Technological advances are so amazing and rapid. The Internet is awesome! Etc... :)
I WOULD NOT WANT TO BE ALIVE IN 1969. NOW 1989.. THE YEAR I WAS BORN WAS GREAT ;)
well with all those ciggies, life was a little sweeter…and shorter
@@edgelennox4035 I was born in '63. '69 wasn't all that bad, but I liked the '90s best.
@@j.m.starling9726 There was NOTHING sweet or romantic or healthy or sentimental about cigarettes.
Our clothes, hair, skin, houses, cars, restaurants, planes, theaters, public transportation, stores, offices, pets, food, etc. reeked of smoke.
My grandparents died of cancer and emphysema. They did not smoke but everyone else (family, friends, customers) did - except for my mother.
But she still died of asthma and lung disease with a very large and very necessary oxygen tank in their bedroom.
My father started smoking at 10 years old. He continued through World War II as Lucky Strike put cigarettes in everyone's knapsack. He then continued to smoke 3 packs a day until 1964 when I was 10 and he was 50. I had heard the "Surgeon General" say that smoking was bad for peoples' health. But if a person could cut the number of cigs smoked in half he/she could live more years. Not wanting to have my daddie die young I dreamed up a great plan to ensure that he could easily cut his smoking in half.
I went to the buffet where the cigarette supply was stored. There were 3 cartons of them. I got a sharp knife and proceeded to open each pack in each carton. I then took the cigarettes out of each pack. I took the sharp knife and proceed to cut "each cigarette in half", thus making it easier for my father to "cut his smoking in half". (I honestly believed someone could smoke cigarette halves.)
There were bunches and bunches of halved cigarettes but I didn't want to put them back in the packs and cartons yet so I put them in a brown paper bag ("plastic" was NOT an option then). I wanted to show my dad how easy it was going to be to reduce his smoking and thus his coughing and spitting up in the sink as he did for 10 minutes every morning upon waking up.
So, the dog and I went to the side door to wait for my dad to get off the bus from the checkpoint and walk the block and a half to the house. [The dog knew the moment when the bus dropped "our" dad off.]
We met him at the door with the brown bag full of cigs. He looked in the bag and I saw the expression of someone whose blood was boiling. [There was a LOT of money in the contents of that bag.]
All I could do was express why I had murdered all of those cigarettes. "Daddie, I don't want you to die!!"
He actually DID quit. It was THE most difficult thing he ever did. There were so many movements/activities/feelings/tastes associated with smoking. All of those habits had to be broken.
He gained weight because he could actually taste food. Smoke stunk to him. He lived for 20 more years with a heart attack, bypass surgery by Dr. Denton Cooley, colon cancer, and then his final days with me catching his dark brown spit into boxes and boxes of Kleenex. He died when the the ice cream and other goodies I fed him didn't taste good any more. He just closed his mouth and shook his head "No".
My mother had 4 more years. Her long time doctor said she just had so much wrong with her including her no longer capable lungs.
The years rolled on. People smoked in open and closed offices and conference rooms when I started my work in engineering in 1976. Co-workers were angry at me when I asked them to please stop because any cigarette smoke almost shut down my lungs. Eventually, civilization changed, health values changed, and smoking became not cool. Now I live in a no smoking quadplex. But..., people visit the other occupants and some of them still smoke and have no understanding that smoke can get through walls, paint, fabric, wood, pipes, vents, the air, just about anything.
To this day I have never actually smoked a cigarette. I didn't have to waste a bunch of money to buy the damn things. I just had to breathe to inhale the second hand smoke.
I now have chronic asthma and COPD.
Great to see these again thank you!
You're welcome, Liza.
Remember the awesome Barbie clothes??? Even stockings, bras, etc! And the curlers, wigs, jewelry, the intricately sewn clothes! Barbie was better dressed than we were! And Barbie came in all sorts of hair colors! From blonde to brunette and even ash blonde and redhead!

@@FromSagansStardust You knew the rest?!? Mad respect!
That's not Hal Linden, bro.
The 1969 Mustang commercial paid homage to Laugh-In, top TV show at that time. Cigarette ads were everywhere. Boxes of sweet cereals always had kid prizes inside. Loved the ad for the rudimentary early computer football game. People today may not know how new the idea was of having white and black people together in ads at that time. The Pepsi commercial was revolutionary. I was 14 in 1969 and remember it all.
That computer football game was very rudimentary. The lights lit up when both players held down buttons after a play selection. The play outcomes were already determined so it was a matter of what and when buttons are pushed by whom. No computer board or anything. Very basic. ruclips.net/video/zRWxHX2SQJg/видео.html
It was a time of innocence. It was also a wholesome time. Born in 56'.
I truly adored the 60s and 70s
Simpler time
❤🌹
Omg, me too. I was born in '54
ah yes very innocent, tell that the 1000 young americans that died monthly in 1969, even 1800 in 1968. Yes tell it their parents of those young kids, they were mostly 19-20 years old,, they were still teens, but were killed for no reason. daily 30-50 humanbeings just killed for nothing and then im not even mentioning all the Vietnamese people that also died that year. Thousands of them, as if they were nothing, but they were flesh and blood just like you and me. But we forget the bad thing and our stupid brains only remember the happy stuff. Well how retarded is that, but please take a moment for those, think about them that gave their life for nothing, for shit, for bullshit. it didnt bring them or their families anything only a waste of young human life, a whole generation was fu cked by people like Kissinger. I did a happy dance in last november when Kisssinger died, he should have been prosecuted as war criminal.
Me too
Gawd, what a coincidence! I saw a Barbie commercial that had Eve Plumb (Jan Brady) in it, and kiddingly said that Marcia's Barbie is better than hers. Now RIGHT HERE is a Barbie commercial with Marcia (Maureen McCormick) in it!
Thats funny 😂 its like they were playing Marcia and Jan before the show even started
I'm 64 years old and I want an Archie car! I remember getting a record on the back of the cereal box. I think it was Sugar Sugar
Another wonderful one, Fred. Got a little behind in my FredFlix watching. I didn't realize that the Three Stooges did a commercial (or was that a PSA?). The kinda scary thing is that once the Pepsi add started I could sing the entire song by memory! Probably haven't thought of that song in 40 years. Wow, the kind of trivia that's stored back there!
And it's good to hear that the Lost in Space Robot got his old job back doing voice over work. Dick Tufeld was a pretty prolific voice actor. Quite a few cigarette ads too.
Tom Harmon's grandchildren in the commercial are Tracy, Gunnar, and Matthew Nelson. Their parents are Tom's daughter Kristin and her then husband Ricky Nelson (TV and singing star). Tom is also the father of actor Mark and daughter Kelly (the Tic Tac commercial woman).
I know your post is 5 years old, but I had to respond!
I thought it was fun that you mentioned the Nelson brothers. I’m an 80’s kid, and I saw Matthew and Gunnar Nelson in concert, in 1989! 😍😍
12:05 The Chrysler commercial is everything a commercial should be. It’s so enchanting, and it speaks right to your imagination. 🐟👌🏼
I have never seen this beautiful ad for the 1969 Chrysler.
ahhhh i had the pleasure of meeting Maureen McCormick while i worked for a dentist in Beverly Hills, she is lovely sweet & GORGEOUS big super green eyes !!!!! i never saw that commercial how great is that to trade in Barbie OMG !!! thank you for these i love them
a child named courtney always reminds me of maureen 🎀
And now that old Barbie you traded for $1.50 is worth $1,500! hehe
Born in ‘69. Love seeing things like this from that year. ❤
The good old days forever ingrained in my mind.
Some of these commercials are mind-blowing! Some are funny. But thank you. I've enjoyed them.
I was born the day MLK was shot in 1968. Don't remember the 60's...but I loved the 70's and 80's....the last of the great decades
Thank you for posting. I love these old commercials. They really take you back.
I loved those lil plants that Honeycomb Cereal had in the 70’s. They were like mini terrariums. 🌱🌿
39:00 Mclean Stevenson, (Col. Henry Blake) for Schlitz beer. Cool. Toss Across... can you imagine a kid today getting that as a gift and being happy about it? That guy narrating the Firebird commercial at 9:00 is Jason Evers who played Rael in the Star Trek TOS episode "Wink of an Eye"... I think?
Herb Bluntman - Toss Across - today it would never go on the market because some kid would use the throw bags as weapons & sue the toy company!
And Mason Adams supplied the voice for the Toss Across ad
Toss Across evolved into a football tailgating game. Try it with Schlitz beer. Lol
We kids LOVED toss across. I rather hoped it would be around for kids longer. Such a sweet and simple game. And fun!
The guy @ 9:20 is Paul Richards. I remember him from "Beneath the Planet of the Apes"
2:04 Yep... "pretty hair" is precisely what he is thinking ;)
Thank you for sharing this. It is a great trip back in time. God Bless You & stay safe.
Thank you, tj921able.
I enjoyed watching all these old commercials. I even sang along with a few that I remembered. I was 10 years old. 😂
That was John Amos from Good Times and The Mary Tyler Moore Show and of course Roots in the McDonald's commercial.
Amazing all the television and pop culture references. At 13 I watched a lot of television, but still missed many of these commercials. Just depends on what time of the day it was--and what show. I did know all the laundry detergents. Funny story to show how ingrained they were...years later a co-worker asked me if I wanted to buy a raffle ticket for a basket of cheer. Not being a drinker, I actually thought it was for a basket of laundry detergent. Couldn't understand why anyone would want that.
"@MrTrashcan1" I think a lot of commercials may have been shown in certain states in the US and not in others.
Commercials were ran at different times due to the viewers watching at the time. Laundry detergent, that new amazing mop, Hoover, home appliances, makeup and hair care etc. during school and husbands work ours. Honey comb, cereals in general, toys all things a kid would ask for, after school. Cars, lawn mowers, handy trash cans, after 7 to 8ish. when husbands have eaten and finished their after work chores, who are now in their evening chair..... you did not advertise John Deer tractors to a NYC audience nor new Bentley to a Mid West farming area. Their was order and a routine to life then..... for the most part across all races and areas of the US....
In one of My Sociology classes, we studied the Social (and psychological) Impact of Commercials.... Verrrrry Intersting... :D
The commercials back then were better than now days
Yeah now they’re all about pharmaceutical drugs
In 1966, the first Noxzema shave cream commercial came out. Take it off. Take it all off... I was fascinated by that ad. I still use Noxzema shave cream, and I can get it in only one place. It's been over 50 years, and I suppose the ad men would be surprised that, for me anyway, it sells shaving cream!
Bardolino Michele
I was too young to see that ad when it first aired, but when I viewed it on YT I instantly liked it. I like the thought of lime scented shave cream, I wish they still made that.
watershed44 I was 11 in 1966, and I didn't shave until I reached my late teens. I lived for 23 years in Kentucky and Noxzema was not available in my portion of the state. When I got back to Pennsylvania, I took it off. Took it all off! Hee, hee...
We used to go around saying take it off,take it all off in a Swedish voice, when I was a kid,if the adults caught us we would get in trouble
Gunilla Knutsen! I haven't thought about her in years. And they say that sex sells. I guess they're right!
All my favorite cars are from 69'. Just happens to be my birth yr too. Kind of neat to see the commercials my parents were watching the yr I was born.
I was nine in 1969 from a family of seven of us. That year our oldest brother we didn't see often when he was twenty being all too busy biking on his Triumph,camping and going to rock concerts and he went to Woodstock!
Best year for cars ever! Loved the Charger and the Mustang.
Enjoyed this so much. Marvelously put together.
Love the Pontiac chain gang (who weren’t chained at all) commercial. And the Monkees❤
Always smile when I see the Monkees in anything.
What a great video! Love it! ❤❤❤
Wow. Chevy Caprice had nozzles at the rear tires to spray “ liquid tire chain” onto the tread as you drive. That’s like something I expect to see in Speed Racer cartoons. 43:25
lol. What was that stuff? Did it work?
@topsirloin4209 Awesome!! You are so right... Speed Racer!!
If I could pick two years in my life when I was the most carefree and happy, it would be 1969 and 70, I was 9 and 10 years old.
Me too!
Oh man, that 69 Mach1.
If you had it today, you could sell it and retire.
It amazes me how much of my brain space has been occupied by commercial jingles.
That mercury dime at 3:01 is worth $1 of silver ( based on today's silver price. ). In 1969, the silver in that $0.10 coin was worth about $0.14.
I also noticed that when the coin was flipped, the reverse was of the current Roosevelt dime, rather than the reverse of the Mercury.
F-A-N-T-A-S-T-I-C !!! Loved each and everyone and remembered 95% of them!
marsha marsha marsha on the barbie doll ad
All these commercials for cars, and not one seatbelt in sight! Not all progress is bad.
41:28. I don't remember the commercial, but I do remember the Pontiac Judge. I'll be 59 next Friday. Also, at 42:56, the '69 Chevy Caprice was way ahead of its time. Worth it to be pushing old age now, to have been young then!
"Look Mommie That Lady has Dandruff".... lol 😆
Good to see Vulcans finally had sense enough to become domesticated.
Lol
Its soothing and calming to us.
A time of wholesomeness
tell that the young fellowman that died monthly in some stupid jungle, make it a 1000 a month in 1969. 1000, 1 0 0 0
It's amazing what went on in those commercials especially butts and Airlines..... Cigarettes that is. They made them seem like they were incredible and you had to have them not to mention they were killing you. The airline commercials were incredible because it made flying seem civilized maybe it was in those days but not today.
At any rate quite creative Fred I really enjoyed this one!
Thanks, Scott. I might do a video on the way airline travel used to be.
Scott Petrone It was pretty civilised compared to today but the stewardesses took so much abuse from the male passengers and had to adhere to strict behaviors (like always plastering a smile on their faces even when they want to slap someone), ultra strict diets (because they weren't supposed to gain more than a few ounces), crazy dress codes (specifically for their undergarments), and they weren't allowed to date (if they did they had to quit)
I'm only 10 minutes in and the commercials are so slow paced compared today. I was 12 and 13 in 1969 so far i only remember the noxzema music.
1969, the year Richard M. Nixon became the 37th President of the USA, Woodstock became the Mother of rock concerts, We lost both President Eisenhower & Dorothy from "The Wizard of Oz ", the Gay people rebelled in NY, Moratorium protests flooded the nation, Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin, & Mike Collins became the first humans to land on the Moon (Americans, I say with pride), now the Red Chinese landed on the dark side of the moon. I guess they were listening to Pink Floyd.
Don't forget Charles Manson!
Wow. Fred you are a master craftsmen. 6 yr old video. YT algorithm brought your videos to me just a few months ago. 😢. “A discount for bringing your wife” had me cracked. At the beginning, the “Mercury Dime” . As always Fred, thanks, you’re swell.
Thanks again, Cmon.
Geez, I'm actually having an emotional reaction to seeing people drinking pop from a _bottle_ . How sad is that?
Sad?
Major Matt Mason, Mattel's man in space. Worth a small fortune today.
I remember that, I had Moon McDare.
I was 3 years old but the 70s were magical. Yes there were tragic moments and those cannot be forgotten. However people and it didn't matter whether you were black, white, rich , poor, respected each other for the most part. I blame most of our problems today on the entertainment industry and the media. Back then Hollywood had morals and standards, the media told you facts. Today all that has gone out the window or whatever term you may use. Thanks for the memories. It's so wonderful to have them at the touch of a finger!!!!!!
I am a year younger. Today's world has it's pros and cons. People need to use their common sense again.
I don’t think race relations were really all that good back 50 years ago. I am not at all nostalgic for that part of the 1970s.
And disabled kids were discouraged from attending mainstream schools if they just had a mild physical disability. The only people who go on about these kinds of things are the ones who never experienced any discrimination.
21:08 He was such a hero back then. Fast forward 25 years and--- trial of the century!
The memories. I remember seeing MACH 1 Mustangs in my neighborhood on a regular basis.
These ads seem longer than the ads we see now, infomercials excluded.
They were. Ads began to get slightly shorter in the 1980s.
Well that was a blast from the past. I remember all of them. The commercial @26:40 something was an ALL STAR cast !! ( Leo Gorsey, Lon Chaney Jr, a guy from "Stalag 17", a film noir regular, the Highway Patrol guy or From "Cannon", a couple other very famous character actors. I wish I knew all their names.
That was fun 😊👍
I bet a lot of people born after 1970 have no clue that those guys in that commercial were all known actors in the 1940s.
@@RevLeigh55 No doubt they dont know any of these stars. I'm amazed if I ask someone younger than myself about an older show, or actor they always answer with, "never heard of it"

Irony is watching 2 RUclips ads so you can watch the commercials in this RUclips post!
There is free software called adblocker that you can easily download. No more YT ads, but you'll lose the irony.
Dark Shadows.. scary for a 7 year old... Scary now for a 57 year old ...
56 here and still watching the show.
We had it when I was 5-ish and we loved it! 😍
We weren’t allowed to watch it!
Hank Austin Ha me too, remember trying to get home after school to watch this show, my parents would just laugh, they didn't have to monitor what we watched then.
Jacqueline Dixon no. just what you read. like what comic books, magazines, and books were "appropriate"
I love the Barnabus Collins game and the cigarette commercials!!❤😂👍
I was the age of the kid in the Pepsi commercial....that song brought me right back to being that little. I am 63 now! I had a lot to live for sure....❤
i had the banana split puppets out of puffa puffa rice was 3 at the time funny i could still remember some of these commercials especially mcdonalds
Full service gas stations. Those were the days.
i remember me and my family courding around our new color tv watching the Apollo 11 launch
Indeed! I had a stuffed-animal Snoopy riding a plush rocket w/a little ribbon/sash saying, "Fly Me to the Moon, Apollo 11." Wish I still had it.
