@Dela, thanks for that comment because I say the same thing regarding the positivity that was during that time and people (young kids) look at me as if I spoke Martian or something.
@M451 Don't forget all the cell phone ads from the major carriers, and companies like Apple, and Samsung. If you want everyday product commericals on TV anymore you just about have to go local commericals played during the afternoon blocks of syndicated talks shows, during the local news, or get a ROKU, and have them come up at random that way.
@M451 I 100% get where you are coming from, I'm just saying this is about as close as we can get these days to the commericals of old, as most local commericals have not really changed much at least in my area in the past 20 - 30 years with some of the same people still on them hocking the same products, and services.
That is an absolutely surreal feeling, knowing that commercials will soon become a thing of the past, and future children will become nostalgic on RUclips videos and streaming services. It's scary to think that, but it's inevitable. I'm just so happy to see that, even with this complete gut punch in society, people are taking the time and effort to archive as much of this past culture as possible.
I was about 20, 21 in 1996, still very much in the youth culture. The 90s was the last decade I was either a legit kid or still felt like a kid from beginning to end. I graduated high school in 1993, and even in 1999 at 23, 24, finishing college I still felt like I was very much part of the youth culture, even if I was technically a young adult and wasn't the active participant that I was in the early-mid 90s. Talking about the 80s in the 90s was like speaking about recent old school history, not "retro history" or "vintage history". By the time the 2000s came along, I turned 25 and then 26 and things just never felt the same. Nothing against the 2000s, it's just I was over 25 and aged out of the youth culture. To me 1998 and 1999 don't even feel all that long ago, but then I realize it's over 20 years ago.
I was born in '98, but I love to collect and archive stuff from cultures/decades past and sort of see what it was like to live through television back then. Thank you, Dave, for making this kind of stuff available for everyone to see!
I was a sophomore in highschool just got my license and Scream came out making one of the biggest impacts of my life and one of the greatest horror films ever made. One of the best years of my life. Take me back!
96 the year I graduated high school and started freshman year. Honestly, I hated high school but culturally it was one of the best years. Music, movies, tv, fashion, economy was all pretty good.
We had plenty of issues but certainly nothing like today. The internet certainly wasn't easier... trying to get onto AOL and getting a busy signal, and then hearing that happy blllleeeppp! screetch! and surfing the web at a blazing fast 33.6kbps! LOL
The minimum wage has only gone up 2 dollars in almost 30years and the cost of living has gone up like 10x lol anyway great video Dave love your intro to these videos
I remember making $5.15 at McDonald's in 1996. And you know what, I miss it. I'd take it over today's BS. I'd go back without hesitation. Wow, Face Off, Dante's Peak and Scream trailers! Such fun movies!
Sally, everyone on these sites does: your in good sympathetic company I was one of the first posters on this thread. There's nothing great about growing old.
Couldn't be.....more jazzy 😂. I missed these days so much man. When things were much simpler and less chaotic. I was year away from leaving middle school and heading to high school. And the most i could probably remember from that era is obviously the Simpsons, Xena, Hercules and possibly Buffy when it was premiering. TheWB would be come my go to network for everything concerning good tv. So glad I had that. Thanks as always Dave.
things not simpler you were just a kid.. For other kids in this era you had the highest murder and crime rate in modern history, no curfew, no parents etc

As an 87 baby I miss this time. 96 was the worst year for me because I moved from New York to Florida and I've been home sick since but these commercials makes so much sense to me now as an adult 🤣good times.
You're an addiction and we love it! 96 was great - son started youth sports and my backyard was neighborhood pickup game central. Ray Charles and Rodney Dangerfield for the win!
96 was great it was my 1st income tax check i took it and bought a GT virtigo i was 15 and in heaven man times were so easy life will never be like that again i’m 40 now and reflect back to 96 all the time i sure miss them summer dayz
The best part of all these commercials are that you don't hear the phrase DOT COM every few seconds and also the commercials made more sense back then.
I was three years old in 1996, but I remember those KFC and McDonald's jingles. They were my first introduction to both of them; in fact, I still to this day associate McDonalds' more with "Have you had your break today?" than with "I'm lovin' it." I also remember a lot of these other ad campaigns, like those Dairy Queen and Walmart ones. Also, 4:36 makes me chuckle. That assistant is only looking at her armpits, but she screams like she's being murdered.
The hardest thing to explain about life 30 years ago - calling people when the rates are cheap, and how critically important that was. My kids know nothing of long distance calls or local toll calls. Incredible.
Lol wow I was just watching “Dante’s Peak” on HBO the other day, still enjoyed it after all these years. The first “Scream”was the best and I remember in school everybody was talking about it. Omg “A Simple Wish” was my cousin’s favorite kids film, I couldn’t stand it , gave me a headache watching it with her😖

I have to laugh at each generation boasting about their "Better technology" in 96 kids were making fun of their parent's Televisions Now it's this generation's turn to do the same. : )
Trust me you're not the only one, plus for the next few years after the movie came out everyone, and their mother thought it was so damn cool to dress up like the SCREAM thing for Halloween, when in reality it made them look like stupid clowns!! 🤦♂️
I always thought the Scream movies were dumb. Horror movies, or maybe I should say popular horror movies, kind of go in these weird cycles. Scream came out, then a bunch of horror movies from the late 90s and early 2000s followed it that had actors you'd expect to see on Dawson's Creek or something, with very little actual gore. Then the mid-2000s hit, and horror movies start to go the opposite way and try to be as violent, grim, and gruesome as they can get away with.
Wow🤯 I never in my life heard anyone say that. Scream was life changing and made me want to be an actor when I was 16. Crazy to think someone didn't like it even tho I completely understand your opinion.
I do love the intros that give it a bit of a personal touch, not to knock other youtubers that do this but I feel like you're the only one I've seen that does! I forgot about that miller lite ad, and the blatantly obvious jump-cut, haha!
I turned 5 in that year when Arthur premiered on PBS stations all across America and was a Canadian animated children's series and it's still going on for almost 25 years compared to the Simpsons and the year I started Kindergarten at Blythe Bower Elementary in Cleveland, Tennessee!
A good year... the year I graduated high school. I was working at Best Buy, and I was making $6 an hour selling computers, and driving a Geo Metro... Life seemed great then.
I remember getting my first job in 98 in high school working at a gas station/Deli/liquor store/video poker palace starting out making $5.15 an hour eventually moving up to $5.30 an hour after a year, and it took me all summer, and then some to save all my money for a computer build I was doing at the time. Good memories!!
I remember working at Burger King making $5.75 an hour. Thought i was rich because my previous job at friendlys paid only $5.15. Worked lots of hours, had money to burn. Only bill was car insurance. Everything was cheap. Gas was $1 a gallon, cigarettes was $1.50 a pack, a 20oz soda was $.99, and I didn’t pay more then $500 for a running driving inspected quality 10-15 year old used car with less then 100,000 miles on it (that I would then beat to death for a few months and buy anther). If I was smart with my money, $20 would get through the whole week. Ah to go back to 1998/1999.
That Wal-Mart commercial lowering prices, I remember back around that time they took pride in having a plethora of "made in the USA" items on their shelves.. how the times have changed for the worst. "Bring it home to the USA" was their slogan if I rememver correctly with a tractor trailer driving down a highway in a sunset.
96 was one of the best years of my life. Middle school to high school time. The summer of 96 was the best!

Just think. In 25 years current kids aren't going to have this kind of nostalgia because everyone's streaming shows without commercials now.
Agreed, and what new commericals there are on places like RUclips are spam and scam garbage that will be forgotten the next day for good reasons.
@M451 Don't forget all the cell phone ads from the major carriers, and companies like Apple, and Samsung.

Gas was $1 a gallon, cigarettes was $1.50 a pack, a 20oz soda was $.99, and I didn’t pay more then $500 for a running driving inspected quality 10-15 year old used car with less then 100,000 miles on it (that I would then beat to death for a few months and buy anther). If I was smart with my money, $20 would get through the whole week. Ah to go back to 1998/1999.
@@DavesArchives me too dave.
It's makes me wanna be a teenager in the 90s, I like that decade very much.
That Wal-Mart commercial lowering prices, I remember back around that time they took pride in having a plethora of "made in the USA" items on their shelves.. how the times have changed for the worst.
"Bring it home to the USA" was their slogan if I rememver correctly with a tractor trailer driving down a highway in a sunset.
