I'm from the North Side of Pittsburgh, Always nice to see a Clark's Teaberry gum ad. It,along with the Zagnut bar, and Of course the Clark bar itself were originally made here.
@John Bold Thru a complicated series of splits and acquisitions, The Clark Bar,Zagnut and Clark Gum became owned by different companies. Necco (until last year) made The Clark Bar, Zagnut has been produced by Hershey since the 1990's. Teaberry Gum is still made...In Mexico. The snack food business is more convoluted than the tech industry,LOL.
Gosh, I was born in '63. 8 tracks, lol, I haven't seen one of those in ages! Commercials then were better than anything on TV now. I love old cars! Great time! Thanks!

Back then TV commercials were light-hearted and fun to watch. Today, everything is so dead-serious and heavy-handed. But then, what with every other commercial advertising treatments for Chrohn's disease, PMS, lactointolerance, infertility etc., I suppose that's to be expected. Heck, gimme a vintage Marlboro Man ad instead any day ! Thanks for the pleasant flashback, Fred.
Also back then they had far more creative madmen. They could do it all...write jingles, develop and edit copy for scripts, cast the right person(s) to represent the product they were selling. They knew the demographics. All that was worth millions to an ad agency.
Posting 4-12-22. I'll be 59 on June 10, and can well remember cigarette advertising on TV. It was discontinued 1-1-71. I'd love to have it back instead of all these ads that have a pill, a cream, or whatever for any and all human torments (prescription drugs).
Your right, there is either a commercial for some irritable bowel, erectile dysfunction, weight loss, or Moderate to Severe plaque psoriasis or some Moderate to Severe something. Hollywood has become an AGENDA BASED political experience. Nowadays Hollyweirdo's who run the entertainment industry use movies and now commercials as their platforms for their political or personal agendas. Now ones for say Shriner's Hospital for Children, or St.Jude Children's Hospital,🏥 those are some seriously important and vital facts for helping kids. But yikes, some of them are ugh! Oh and I can't forget the lawsuits for cancer causing weed killers, birth defects from baby powder? Or all of the insanity lawsuit commercials. Again....yikes! Like you said, give me a Marlboro man anyday, or the old Tony the Tiger, They're GRRREAT! The Sugar Smacks Frog, or the Honeycomb hideout. The Trix🐇🐰Rabbit🐰🐇, silly Rabbit Trix are for Kids! Apparently "sugared" cereal is now considered a "bad" thing? I'm actually asking because those commercials were funny and cute, not close to offensive, but nowadays breathing can be offensive so?
Hanna-Barbera did all the various openings for the entire run of Bewitched. Chevrolet was the shows' primary sponsor for the first five seasons ( '64-'69 ..the Dick York years). The Dodge Boys commercial was animated by DePatie- Freling. Think Pink Panther cartoons and I Dream of Jeannie animated opening. David DePatie and Friz Freling opened their own studio after Warner shut down their animation studio. Alot of former Warner employees also worked for them. The Clark " Teaberry Shuffle" was performed by Herb Alpert & The Tijuana Brass . They also provided incidental music for The Dating Game on ABC during this time. Thanks as always Fred.

Gosh Fred, we were 13 years old... All of our big mistakes waiting around the bend, but not yet... Not yet. These commercials take me back to that special time. So many of them I haven't thought of in years. My brother recently showed me a letter I wrote him in 1967 while he was in the Navy. I wrote, " I promise I'll never wear tight pants and be a wild girl!" Lol! He had written to tell me that now I was a "teenager", he hoped I'd still be his sweet little sister when he came home...I guess I equated tight pants with being wild! Crazy to be 13, huh? I sure love taking these trips back through the days and years of our lives... Thank you so much for making me smile, cry, and remember... FredFlix always gives me a soft place to land.❤

Those ladies long for the days of Tupperware parties, bridge club luncheons, quilting bees, ya know.... all that good stuff that Stepford wives are made of.
@@paulchristman2456...Sorry...none of those names are familiar to me. By and large that commercial would be considered sexist based on today's cultural standards. I don't know any Stepford Wives type women these days. At least none in my life.
one of the most impressive commercials of my lifetime came from toyota and the corolla car in the early 70s....the picture of the car driving down and rural highway in the fall, with the colored leaves gently falling.....the song "run with me...come chase the everasting sun with me....the winds of autumn are but one with me....run with me my love"....still lingers in my mind and i can stil see this ad allthough it has been almost 50 years ago
Go on the tube to Copper Nickel and Come Run With Me....this was the song to that wonderful ad...I have looked for the ad online many times but can't find it
The one thing about some of these commercials that I remember is that basically back then they were very light-hearted and basically they were more interesting as well. Compared to the commercials that we have now. That are not so subliminal. But boy do I remember some of these old commercials that used to really live up to what they were called back then. But back in the sixties our lives through TV commercials really surrounded us with what we could do with our lives. But all I can say for it is the one I just watched earlier our lives to commercials it's 68 that was very good. Especially this one as well it's so good too. I wish I could see a whole bunch more like this as in like the year 1962 our lives to commercials because basically I'd like to see every year or these commercials came out from 1960 to 1969 and basically what that would mean is I'd like to relive what I watched on TV back in those days when watching TV commercials.
@FredFlix - Fred, wow, you really hit a Home Run with this 1967 cavalcade of commercials. So many of us Baby Boomers have evidently identified with so much of the material in it. I noticed by how many dialogues and sub-dialogues it has engendered in the Comments with you, and between us fellow RUclips watchers. You've effectively brought-together a generation here, Fred. Very much a Boomers Convention. Deserves a RUclips Achievement Award, if there is such a thing, IMO. Well done, sir! :-)
Fred: For the past 30 minutes you managed to transport me back to a time for me growing up, remembering virtually all of these commercials, with their catchy tunes that conveyed such optimism, as I experienced in my "cocooned" living as a 10 year old, growing up in the San Fernando Valley, a world that we have moved far away from nowadays!! Thank you! I was hoping that you had that 1967 Camaro ad with the jingle sung to the association's song, Wendy. Liked the 1969 Camaro ad, and seeing many recognizable actors/actresses when they were younger. Yes, I remember when I had a 1967 Dodge Coronet! great to see James Coburn in the Colt malt liquor ad. I used to take care of his pool in the 1970's, never saw him though. Thanks again!!
@@carloscarpinteyro332 No, that man was handsome in the conventional sense. Coburn was ruggedly handsome with a unique look. Freeze frame the man in that commercial and compare it to a Google image of Coburn in the '60s. It's not even close.
@@FredFlix I think that you are right, and I seem to be clearly wrong on this one. Coburn did a Schlitz light beer commercial in 1978, don't know how I mixed them up, thanks for the correction!!
sorry for your loss.. My mom died in 2011.. not one day goes by that I don't think about her and miss her. Take care! RIP to them both.. I always feel like mom is somehow around me and I always know what she'd say.. great memories even if bitter sweet. :)
Wow I was born in 1967 it’s nice to see the commercials I love how elegant the women dressed love their hairstyles too thanks for sharing Fred ❤😊 beautiful 1967 Camaro 👍
I feel so honored to have been born in the late 50s, life was great in the 60s & 70's too. 80'S and 90s were also grand. Early 2000s not too bad. Today,,,,the world just plain sucks!
I remember drawing my sisters name out of the bowl for Christmas and I bought her a barbie doll somewhere around 1962 or so. I wonder if she still has it. Anyway Fred thanks for the great videos and the trips back down memory lane. ✌
3:55- "THE MICKEY MOUSE CLUB" was still in repeats at the time, although only 20 local stations were scheduling it. Disney eventually pulled the series from syndication in 1968 (it wouldn't be seen again until 1975).
In 1970, Jay Ward created a series of great animated commercials for Aunt Jemima's Frozen Waffles, featuring "Professor Goody" and the "Waffle Whiffer" {"WAFFLE-WAFFLE-WAFFLE!!!!"}.
HannaBarbera made the cartoon opening and closing to Bewitched and Peter Lupus was in the Ford Mustang commercial and because of Hanna Barbera Samantha and Darrin were in cartoon form on The Flintstones one episode
@wnychevy09 - OMG! Peter Lupus! Remember with Billy Crystal? "My good friend Peter Lupus said - 'Nando, don't be a schnook, it's not how you feel, it's how you look. And dahling, you look Mah-velous!". ;-)
@@BarnabasCollinsXIII Seen that old WW pilot. It's so bad its funny. Of course William Dozier did the voice over. Just like Batman. That Batgirl pilot is also on here.
1:15- Chevrolet was the primary sponsor of "BEWITCHED" during its first five seasons (1964-'69). Joel Aldred was Chevy's announcer; Dave Ketchum appeared in the ad at 1:22.
Until now I never realized I lived a deprived childhood. I never even heard of of the Mary Poppins Talking Phone. I got paper dolls mostly, maybe in my child hood I got a total of 5 dolls. My child got over 50 dolls in her childhood and she is a wonderful adult now. A very gifted child and so caring. I don't think spoiling a child with dolls is a problem, I just wish I had had more back in the 60's. But now I wish for good health, something I scoffed at as a kid. I want to jump , run and feel great when I get up in the morning. Now it is a daily thing to figure out if I'm going out or not depending on my body aches and issues. I remember being 5 and thinking old age was a million planets away and not worrying about dying anytime soon. It was a thing I could not fathom. I know it well now.
I was 5 at that time, I know exactly what you mean about trying to get out of bed after biting off little pieces of my pain med prescription, the doll that was my favorite at the time was definitely Tubsy, with her own tub:). I actually saw some on eBay awhile back:)
When I was a kid my grandparents watched The Lawrence Welk Show. He used to advertise Geritol I barely remember the commercials though. They still make the stuff too, they even sell Geritol for children.
I was born in 1961, and while I don’t specifically remember the Schlitz beer commercial shown in this video, I do remember the jingle: 🎶When you’re out of Schlitz, you’re out of beer…🎶 Found myself singling along with it. Lol I used to have a 67 Mustang. It had been my mom’s car and then I drove it throughout high school and afterwards. Finally sold it in 1985, as the car needed work and I really needed money. The car looked identical to the one in the ad, except it was the avocado green color. I still wish I had that car today, I never wanted to sell it. 😟
Ah Geritol . . . 7 major vitamins and 12% alcohol. Plus an FTC investigation. Great to see Ernie Harwell, Hall of Fame broadcaster for the Tigers doing the Life Commercial. Thanks again, Fred!
@@FredFlix HAHA! I'm guessing it used to. I know they were in court late 60's early 70's because they didn't say that and there was some other claims that were questionable. But, they are still around.
Hi FunFunFreddie, TV ads are the most annoying things ever invented, and yet, watching these from 1967 was fun. Those you showcased were obviously all American, but wholely relatable to us all as our advertising was very similar and just as annoying 😂. The coke ads, however, were really brilliantly edited, slick, modern & catchy and a cut above most other advertising of the day. Hope you are well sweetie, sending 🥰🥰🥰 's
I turned 11 in 1967. I remember the Teaberry gum, Aerowax, Schlitz and Coke commercials. Speaking of soda pop, I remember seeing ads in early ‘67 for 7-Up, the “Uncola.”
Colt 45 - Legendary Canadian actor-singer, Billy Van, as the man at the table. Billy played almost all of the characters on "Hilarious House of Frightenstein", and was on many other shows, including "Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour", "Hudson Brothers Razzle Dazzle Show", "The Littlest Hobo", and "Bits & Bytes". And the Billy Van Singers sang the theme for the original 1960s "Spider Man" animated TV series.
Somehow that 1967 Impala and Camaro still look modern to me. I don't know why, but for some reason I still think of the '60s as being "modern", anything before that being "history", and everything after that being "what the heck is going on?".
@@cargo4441 I had a 1986 Grand Prix that I held onto for about 20 years. Nice car. But, compared to the Grand Prix before the 1978 downsizing of the model? Meh.
I missed this one. Even I wasn't born til 1970 my brother was about 6 and so its very nostalgic for me especially he passed away a few years ago.Such cool classic cars....I want an Impala......thanks Fred with the world going crazy lately it's nice to go back in time.......🤣😂😊🤗💕
The first commercial! Epic! The Oldsmobile Cutlass 442! THE most epic muscle car EVER produced! I'm a tad bit biased considering I bought a 1969 Hurst Olds W-30 442. This was back in 1989-90. Ooooh it was FAST! My Dad rode in it once. It was on a dead end road. A little over a ¼-mile road in length. I floored it, he flew back into his seat and a felt his hand grabbing my arm and squeezing as he yelled SLOW THE F**K DOWN! This road was one of two entry points to our Apartment complex. I slowed and he said stop the car. I figured he wanted to see the motor. He got out, looked at me and said he'll NEVER ride in this car AGAIN! And he never did. So that commercial brought back a lot of memories. Thank you! That time of my life was so amazing. There were a group of us friends. My one friend had a old 1964 Box Nova, the old Chevy II. Another had a 70 Camaro. 327 engine. My best friend had a Cutlass Cierra. We were a close knit group of buddies. We'd cruise the "highway" at night and the parkway during the day. Both places showed off two things. CARS and WOMEN! And both were in abundance! During the PEAK times, the entire park was full from beginning to end. As a car would pull out, a different one would pull in. We'd throw a 🥏Frisbee🥏, kick back and jam 🎵music.🎵 Most cars played 💿AC⚡DC, 💿Mötley Crüe, 💿Metallica, 💿Megadeath, 💿Aerosmith, 💿Def Leppard, 💿Iron Maiden, 💿Skid Row, 💿Black Sabbath, etc. 99.9% Heavy Metal! And it was EPIC! 18-40 year old men and women. With muscle cars to show off, or some of the women just would show📸themselves📸 off! Oh and they all had🤪😜😛😛😳🔘🔘🧿🧿😳😳😲🤥🥴👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀which caused this↘️ to↗️ or this -->⤵️ becomes⤴️ BOOOIIING!🥒🥒 Sorry all jokes aside, those days were crazy,🤪 fun, no incredibly fun, and I had some of the best days of my life there. Friday🌙night🌙 if we didn't work, we'd either go to the Drive-in(our drinking hangout), or we'd go to the "Highway" and cruise. Back then most kids, or cruisers(16-40) had CB-radios. So we'd find all of our buddies. Hang out at one of the parking lots that had a view of the strip. Again WOMEN! LOL. When I was 18 I was in a 🎳Bowling🎳league🎳 on Saturday morning. 9am. Those mornings sucked if we had went to the Drive-in the night before and I wasn't the designated driver. YES WE WERE SAFE! Then around 11am we'd hit a fast food place, and go to the Parkway until 3-4pm. Then either the Drive-in or the Highway. Sometimes a "convoy" of us would go on a search for some mythical places we had, or heard we had. One was real, known as the Witches House(Google it you'll see it has entries). The Witches House was off Lake Michigan. There were massive Statues in her yard. Big wooden and concrete statues. The oddities? They always were in different places sometimes the very next day. Again they were huge! After her family died she lived alone. That was the rumor, also there was supposedly a statue of the Virgin Mary in her back yard. 😳 And SUPPOSEDLY at night she'd cry tears of blood. Then there was Hunchyville. A village or pardon the pun, a SMALL township that consisted of only little people. We got back to where it was located. It was HARD to get to. Muddy, VERY MUDDY roads, trails was how you got in. Plus a "farmer" guarded the town. Between these road trips, and other road trips we had many convoys. Again these were awesome memories of time spent with incredibly wonderful friends. God I MISS those people, and those days! Life was so different. Simple things made us have fun. Thank you again sir! I've recently been diagnosed with the same illness that took my Mom. A terminal illness that's slow acting but very tough to live with. These memories are all that's left. I appreciate any little throwback or retrospect that triggers this time. To sit and reminisce about those days, WONDERFUL! GOD BLESS YOU SIR! TAKE CARE!
@@RevLeigh55 I personally do not miss submissive women. I just find it funny that a commercial would say something so chauvinistic. It wouldn't even come close to being accepted in today's society. We've come so far since then, but the juxtaposition between then and now is quite funny.
@@RevLeigh55 It IS funny...such a huge difference!!! We, as a society, have come a LONG way since then. But some people are taking things a little too far nowadays...unfortunately!!!
Kid: Mommy, what are those funny things the kids are using to talk to the Disney characters? They don't LOOK like phones! Mom: Well, back then your grandparents had to make do by carving their phones out of the bones of the dinosaurs they killed, so they look pretty funny to us. They didn't even have ringtones, and of course they had no text because the alphabet hadn't been invented yet.
Anything can be abused but I thank God for cell phones. I have 400 books stored on my phone, over 600 photographs, access to news without a TV or radio and complete 24/7 access to emergency help. All in a small device that fits in my pocket or purse.
Ahhhh Clark’s Teaberry gum. I remember when I was little, when my Dad would do his banking, his bank would give him a huge notebook sized sheet of teaberry gum. What an odd thing for a bank to hand out. It was my favorite gum, though. So that always excited me. Still is my favorite, although super difficult to find now. As far as cars go, I’ve been through the gamut of “foreign” models, from Honda, Hyundai, etc, etc, but now I’m back to Chevy. I have a tiny bright blue Sonic hatchback. Suits me, as I’m only 5 feet tall. Chevy was my first (and most reliable) car. Should have stuck with that all along. Everything comes full circle I guess. And McDonald’s filet o fish is still my favorite fast food sandwich. On the rare occasion I eat fast food. And they still make Geritol...I recently tried it to increase energy...it doesn’t work lol. I also spent countless hours playing battleship with my brother, who has recently passed on. Great memories of amazing times here, Fred. I love coming back to Fred’s Place. It’s like coming back home. Thank you, Fred. Xx
@merce10554 - Interesting... while watching the Colt 45 Malt Liquor commercial, I started whistling along with its "funny tune" from memory. I thought "Wow, how do I remember this stuff?".
When you realize that there was
no photoshop or CGI, these commercials are amazing in their quality. The red carpet one still amazes me.

Actually, in some circles these days (comprised of WOMEN, mind you, ) sure it would ! Just ask Deanna Loraine, Liz Wheeler, Lauren Southern, Michelle Bachman, the list goes on. Those ladies long for the days of Tupperware parties, bridge club luncheons, quilting bees, ya know.... all that good stuff that Stepford wives are made of.
Thanks, Larry.
Admit it Larry.....you want one.
@@paulchristman2456...Sorry...none of those names are familiar to me. By and large that commercial would be considered sexist based on today's cultural standards. I don't know any Stepford Wives type women these days. At least none in my life.
@Ken Lompart...Yep...yep...yep.
I turned 11 yrs old in 67. Thanks for the memories, time and effort you put in to the videos Fred. Very cool !
Thanks, BB.
I was 11 in 67 too
I was 11 in 1967 too. I really remember the car commercial for the "442".
one of the most impressive commercials of my lifetime came from toyota and the corolla car in the early 70s....the picture of the car driving down and rural highway in the fall, with the colored leaves gently falling.....the song "run with me...come chase the everasting sun with me....the winds of autumn are but one with me....run with me my love"....still lingers in my mind and i can stil see this ad allthough it has been almost 50 years ago
I'd love to see that ad, sounds beautiful.
Go on the tube to Copper Nickel and Come Run With Me....this was the song to that wonderful ad...I have looked for the ad online many times but can't find it
The one thing about some of these commercials that I remember is that basically back then they were very light-hearted and basically they were more interesting as well. Compared to the commercials that we have now. That are not so subliminal. But boy do I remember some of these old commercials that used to really live up to what they were called back then. But back in the sixties our lives through TV commercials really surrounded us with what we could do with our lives. But all I can say for it is the one I just watched earlier our lives to commercials it's 68 that was very good. Especially this one as well it's so good too. I wish I could see a whole bunch more like this as in like the year 1962 our lives to commercials because basically I'd like to see every year or these commercials came out from 1960 to 1969 and basically what that would mean is I'd like to relive what I watched on TV back in those days when watching TV commercials.
Very good Fred. Made me remember how I liked my Mary Poppins doll. Thank you.
You're welcome, Michelle.
@FredFlix - Fred, wow, you really hit a Home Run with this 1967 cavalcade of commercials. So many of us Baby Boomers have evidently identified with so much of the material in it. I noticed by how many dialogues and sub-dialogues it has engendered in the Comments with you, and between us fellow RUclips watchers. You've effectively brought-together a generation here, Fred. Very much a Boomers Convention. Deserves a RUclips Achievement Award, if there is such a thing, IMO. Well done, sir! :-)
I'd like to see you all at a real convention, Bear Gunn.
@@FredFlix That would truly be AWESOME, Fred. :-)
I was LITERALLY a baby in 1967. 😂😂😂😂😂
Haha only six flavors of pop tarts! It was so much easier to make decisions then! Lol! Thanks Fred! Loved it!
And we only had to make 3 or 4 decisions on what to watch on TV as well, Chantelle.
And the 3 or 4 shows were all quality. Not like today scrolling through 500 channels of mostly repeats or boring new stuff.
Yes and no grungy frosting on them either. I can't stand frosting on Pop Tarts.
I was only 4 back then, and LOVED Pop Tarts.
@@sheriheffner2098 So true , too sweet .
Awesome Fred! I was born in 67! Nice to see the ads from my 1st year!!!
Thanks, Joe.
Fred: For the past 30 minutes you managed to transport me back to a time for me growing up, remembering virtually all of these commercials, with their catchy tunes that conveyed such optimism, as I experienced in my "cocooned" living as a 10 year old, growing up in the San Fernando Valley, a world that we have moved far away from nowadays!! Thank you! I was hoping that you had that 1967 Camaro ad with the jingle sung to the association's song, Wendy. Liked the 1969 Camaro ad, and seeing many recognizable actors/actresses when they were younger. Yes, I remember when I had a 1967 Dodge Coronet! great to see James Coburn in the Colt malt liquor ad. I used to take care of his pool in the 1970's, never saw him though. Thanks again!!
Nice comment, Carlos. That's not James Coburn in the ad, though. Or is he in the background?
@@FredFlix I'm pretty sure that was him, seated at the table, not doing the stunt.
@@carloscarpinteyro332 No, that man was handsome in the conventional sense. Coburn was ruggedly handsome with a unique look. Freeze frame the man in that commercial and compare it to a Google image of Coburn in the '60s. It's not even close.
@@FredFlix Thanks, I'll have to check it out, you may be right!
@@FredFlix I think that you are right, and I seem to be clearly wrong on this one. Coburn did a Schlitz light beer commercial in 1978, don't know how I mixed them up, thanks for the correction!!
This is great. Brings back a lot of memories. Thank you for sharing!
Yo're welcome, S Larson.
That aero shave commercial is a piece of art
As I was watching this, I wondered what my mom expected how my older sister and I would live...she died in 2014 so I will never know.
sorry for your loss.. My mom died in 2011.. not one day goes by that I don't think about her and miss her. Take care! RIP to them both.. I always feel like mom is somehow around me and I always know what she'd say.. great memories even if bitter sweet. :)

All those strange TV ads when I was but a year old.

These commercials were works of art.
Very true. They had personality, clever ideas and catchy jingles. Nowadays, commercials are unmemorable garbage.
Thankyou Fred love your oldies their wondeful Was 11 in 1967 and remember most of these. God Bless you 🙏♥️
Same to you, Debi.
Wow so these are the commercials on TV in 67? I was born in early March that year thanks FredFlix this is really cool
You're welcome, Mike.
All the commercials I remember from those days are "She's got personality!" and "It's not nice to fool Mother Nature!" and "Ancient Chinese secret!"
Wow I was born in 1967 it’s nice to see the commercials I love how elegant the women dressed love their hairstyles too thanks for sharing Fred ❤😊 beautiful 1967 Camaro 👍
You're welcome, Lolita.
A second ingenious Colt 45 parachute delivery, the other was the surfer deliverying it!
I remember that one! 🙂
I feel so honored to have been born in the late 50s, life was great in the 60s & 70's too. 80'S and 90s were also grand. Early 2000s not too bad. Today,,,,the world just plain sucks!
Born in 1964, and I approve of this message.
You're so right!
Phones and social media are doing us in, it seems to me. I don't see how it will ever get back to "normal" -
Always love your Flix Fred! Makes me happy every time!
That's why I do this, Bob. It sure isn't for the money.
Thank you!!! These are amazing!! Tv commercials show us SO MUCH cultural. (USA commercials).
10 years old in 67. Our first glimpse of Maureen McCormick in the Barbie commercial!
I remember drawing my sisters name out of the bowl for Christmas and I bought her a barbie doll somewhere around 1962 or so. I wonder if she still has it. Anyway Fred thanks for the great videos and the trips back down memory lane. ✌
If she has it, old dog, she needs to sell it.
3:55- "THE MICKEY MOUSE CLUB" was still in repeats at the time, although only 20 local stations were scheduling it. Disney eventually pulled the series from syndication in 1968 (it wouldn't be seen again until 1975).
You've done it again, Fred! The year I was born.
Same year I was born, too.
Me too 👍👍👍
So you're a young fellow!
@@FredFlix Well, I'm no spring chicken, but I ain't in no rocking chair either!
13:37 Proof there were frozen waffles before "let go my eggo". :)
In 1970, Jay Ward created a series of great animated commercials for Aunt Jemima's Frozen Waffles, featuring "Professor Goody" and the "Waffle Whiffer" {"WAFFLE-WAFFLE-WAFFLE!!!!"}.
@@fromthesidelines I don't remember those.
REALLY??????

And nobody said it was racist!
Eggo waffles have been around since the 50's.
Love that old Batman series.
HannaBarbera made the cartoon opening and closing to Bewitched and Peter Lupus was in the Ford Mustang commercial and because of Hanna Barbera Samantha and Darrin were in cartoon form on The Flintstones one episode
@wnychevy09 - OMG! Peter Lupus! Remember with Billy Crystal? "My good friend Peter Lupus said - 'Nando, don't be a schnook, it's not how you feel, it's how you look. And dahling, you look Mah-velous!". ;-)
Hanna-Barbera also did the animated opening for "I LOVE LUCY".
The Ford Mustang "vampire" commercial was Bill Fiore.
Nice collection many Defunct brands that I like to see and bring back to memory.
16:43 Now you're talking. What a great series. Awesome memories. RIP Yvonne Craig and Adam West.
@@BarnabasCollinsXIII Seen that old WW pilot. It's so bad its funny. Of course William Dozier did the voice over. Just like Batman. That Batgirl pilot is also on here.
@@BarnabasCollinsXIII Its all a part of entertainment history. 👍
1:15- Chevrolet was the primary sponsor of "BEWITCHED" during its first five seasons (1964-'69). Joel Aldred was Chevy's announcer; Dave Ketchum appeared in the ad at 1:22.
Thanks for all the info, Barry.
You're very welcome, Fred. :)
Until now I never realized I lived a deprived childhood. I never even heard of of the Mary Poppins Talking Phone. I got paper dolls mostly, maybe in my child hood I got a total of 5 dolls. My child got over 50 dolls in her childhood and she is a wonderful adult now. A very gifted child and so caring. I don't think spoiling a child with dolls is a problem, I just wish I had had more back in the 60's. But now I wish for good health, something I scoffed at as a kid. I want to jump , run and feel great when I get up in the morning. Now it is a daily thing to figure out if I'm going out or not depending on my body aches and issues. I remember being 5 and thinking old age was a million planets away and not worrying about dying anytime soon. It was a thing I could not fathom. I know it well now.
I was 5 at that time, I know exactly what you mean about trying to get out of bed after biting off little pieces of my pain med prescription, the doll that was my favorite at the time was definitely Tubsy, with her own tub:). I actually saw some on eBay awhile back:)
When I was a kid my grandparents watched The Lawrence Welk Show. He used to advertise Geritol I barely remember the commercials though. They still make the stuff too, they even sell Geritol for children.
I was born in 1961, and while I don’t specifically remember the Schlitz beer commercial shown in this video, I do remember the jingle: 🎶When you’re out of Schlitz, you’re out of beer…🎶 Found myself singling along with it. Lol
I used to have a 67 Mustang. It had been my mom’s car and then I drove it throughout high school and afterwards. Finally sold it in 1985, as the car needed work and I really needed money. The car looked identical to the one in the ad, except it was the avocado green color. I still wish I had that car today, I never wanted to sell it. 😟
Marsha Marsha Marsha.
To it's very day i still love the Milky Way candy bar ❤ thank you for the memories of yesteryear
I remember that Somanex commercial from when I was a kid.
Well, I guess it's time to go make the Maxwell House coffee......have a great day Fred..... Thanks for another great vid..
You're welcome, Liz.
You just gotta love that puff a puff of rice commercial
This Video is SOOOOOOO 60´s. I Love It.
Good to know, Robert Duvall.
Ah Geritol . . . 7 major vitamins and 12% alcohol. Plus an FTC investigation. Great to see Ernie Harwell, Hall of Fame broadcaster for the Tigers doing the Life Commercial. Thanks again, Fred!
Geritol has 12 percent alcohol? Excuse me, Earl, I have to go to the store.
@@FredFlix HAHA! I'm guessing it used to. I know they were in court late 60's early 70's because they didn't say that and there was some other claims that were questionable. But, they are still around.
@@FredFlix lmao
America was so much better in 1967 than it is today, so much better. And the cars had so much more style.
For whites, sure
Hi FunFunFreddie, TV ads are the most annoying things ever invented, and yet, watching these from 1967 was fun. Those you showcased were obviously all American, but wholely relatable to us all as our advertising was very similar and just as annoying 😂. The coke ads, however, were really brilliantly edited, slick, modern & catchy and a cut above most other advertising of the day. Hope you are well sweetie, sending 🥰🥰🥰 's
I'm doing fine, Miss Melly, thanks. Hope you're keeping warm in the Australian winter. xoxo
You're lucky because it's as hot as hell here in North Carolina USA.
@@sheriheffner2098 Oh gosh Sheri, I am not a fan of summer at all....try to stay cool as best you can!
Fred, in the late 80s I used to go to the museum of television and radio now it's called the Paley Center.
Is that museum in NYC? I went there in the '80s myself.
That's when we enjoyed watching commercials during our TV shows😂😂😂.
Super-fun video ... Thanks Dude 🙂 (or Ma'am) 🙂 ...
I turned 11 in 1967. I remember the Teaberry gum, Aerowax, Schlitz and Coke commercials. Speaking of soda pop, I remember seeing ads in early ‘67 for 7-Up, the “Uncola.”
Colt 45 - Legendary Canadian actor-singer, Billy Van, as the man at the table. Billy played almost all of the characters on "Hilarious House of Frightenstein", and was on many other shows, including "Sonny & Cher Comedy Hour", "Hudson Brothers Razzle Dazzle Show", "The Littlest Hobo", and "Bits & Bytes". And the Billy Van Singers sang the theme for the original 1960s "Spider Man" animated TV series.
Great collection. ☮️💟
Over just in time for "Lost in Space"
A completely different world🌍 back then.....
Somehow that 1967 Impala and Camaro still look modern to me. I don't know why, but for some reason I still think of the '60s as being "modern", anything before that being "history", and everything after that being "what the heck is going on?".
I go "modern" starting in 1980.
I still think the 60s were iconic so lucky to be alive then💕
I gotta admit GM style was at its peak in 1967 a. 85 or 95 impala looks so dull. And by 2015 goodby forever Impala.
@@cargo4441 I had a 1986 Grand Prix that I held onto for about 20 years. Nice car. But, compared to the Grand Prix before the 1978 downsizing of the model? Meh.
@Jude F, anything going on is called change'. 🙄
I like reading through the comments that way I know it's coming up
I was born in the tail end of 1970, and seeing these ads thrill me!
Thanks Fred I remember a lot of these commercials.
And I wish I could find a cold Schlitz beer in the bottle
You're welcome, Joe.
Schlitz beer at a dinner party. How classy. 😆🍺
Pronto - the floor wax and dessert topping! Now I know where SNL got the inspiration.
Loved watching the ads as a child and teenage years dreaming of buying some day. They need to go back to this
I do remember these,such wonderful memories!
Great Year ,Fred
You said it Eli. Perhaps the best year all time for TV.
Color was still a luxury at that time, many commercials were in black and white, by 69 they were all in color
I missed this one. Even I wasn't born til 1970 my brother was about 6 and so its very nostalgic for me especially he passed away a few years ago.Such cool classic cars....I want an Impala......thanks Fred with the world going crazy lately it's nice to go back in time.......🤣😂😊🤗💕
15:57 Bill Fiore was a great commercial actor.
17:42 The voice of Danny Dark.
16:40 The legendary Gary Owens.
Although here, his voice was dubbed by McLean Stevenson.
@@tomservo56954 That is a great catch!
The first commercial! Epic! The Oldsmobile Cutlass 442! THE most epic muscle car EVER produced! I'm a tad bit biased considering I bought a 1969 Hurst Olds W-30 442. This was back in 1989-90. Ooooh it was FAST! My Dad rode in it once. It was on a dead end road. A little over a ¼-mile road in length. I floored it, he flew back into his seat and a felt his hand grabbing my arm and squeezing as he yelled SLOW THE F**K DOWN! This road was one of two entry points to our Apartment complex. I slowed and he said stop the car. I figured he wanted to see the motor. He got out, looked at me and said he'll NEVER ride in this car AGAIN! And he never did. So that commercial brought back a lot of memories. Thank you! That time of my life was so amazing. There were a group of us friends. My one friend had a old 1964 Box Nova, the old Chevy II. Another had a 70 Camaro. 327 engine. My best friend had a Cutlass Cierra. We were a close knit group of buddies. We'd cruise the "highway" at night and the parkway during the day. Both places showed off two things. CARS and WOMEN! And both were in abundance! During the PEAK times, the entire park was full from beginning to end. As a car would pull out, a different one would pull in. We'd throw a 🥏Frisbee🥏, kick back and jam 🎵music.🎵 Most cars played 💿AC⚡DC, 💿Mötley Crüe, 💿Metallica, 💿Megadeath, 💿Aerosmith, 💿Def Leppard, 💿Iron Maiden, 💿Skid Row, 💿Black Sabbath, etc. 99.9% Heavy Metal! And it was EPIC! 18-40 year old men and women. With muscle cars to show off, or some of the women just would show📸themselves📸 off! Oh and they all had🤪😜😛😛😳🔘🔘🧿🧿😳😳😲🤥🥴👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀which caused this↘️ to↗️ or this -->⤵️ becomes⤴️ BOOOIIING!🥒🥒
Sorry all jokes aside, those days were crazy,🤪 fun, no incredibly fun, and I had some of the best days of my life there. Friday🌙night🌙 if we didn't work, we'd either go to the Drive-in(our drinking hangout), or we'd go to the "Highway" and cruise. Back then most kids, or cruisers(16-40) had CB-radios. So we'd find all of our buddies. Hang out at one of the parking lots that had a view of the strip. Again WOMEN! LOL. When I was 18 I was in a 🎳Bowling🎳league🎳 on Saturday morning. 9am. Those mornings sucked if we had went to the Drive-in the night before and I wasn't the designated driver. YES WE WERE SAFE! Then around 11am we'd hit a fast food place, and go to the Parkway until 3-4pm. Then either the Drive-in or the Highway. Sometimes a "convoy" of us would go on a search for some mythical places we had, or heard we had. One was real, known as the Witches House(Google it you'll see it has entries). The Witches House was off Lake Michigan. There were massive Statues in her yard. Big wooden and concrete statues. The oddities? They always were in different places sometimes the very next day. Again they were huge! After her family died she lived alone. That was the rumor, also there was supposedly a statue of the Virgin Mary in her back yard. 😳 And SUPPOSEDLY at night she'd cry tears of blood. Then there was Hunchyville. A village or pardon the pun, a SMALL township that consisted of only little people. We got back to where it was located. It was HARD to get to. Muddy, VERY MUDDY roads, trails was how you got in. Plus a "farmer" guarded the town. Between these road trips, and other road trips we had many convoys. Again these were awesome memories of time spent with incredibly wonderful friends. God I MISS those people, and those days! Life was so different. Simple things made us have fun. Thank you again sir! I've recently been diagnosed with the same illness that took my Mom. A terminal illness that's slow acting but very tough to live with. These memories are all that's left. I appreciate any little throwback or retrospect that triggers this time. To sit and reminisce about those days, WONDERFUL! GOD BLESS YOU SIR! TAKE CARE!

@@RevLeigh55 I personally do not miss submissive women. I just find it funny that a commercial would say something so chauvinistic. It wouldn't even come close to being accepted in today's society. We've come so far since then, but the juxtaposition between then and now is quite funny.
@@jackofnone9439 Totally agree. I can laugh at the difference between then and now.

Kid: Mommy, what are those funny things the kids are using to talk to the Disney characters? They don't LOOK like phones!
Mom: Well, back then your grandparents had to make do by carving their phones out of the bones of the dinosaurs they killed, so they look pretty funny to us. They didn't even have ringtones, and of course they had no text because the alphabet hadn't been invented yet.

Back when products in ads were built a couple towns over from ourselves in this country. We had an economy to at least live a steady lifestyle.
Ahhhh Clark’s Teaberry gum. I remember when I was little, when my Dad would do his banking, his bank would give him a huge notebook sized sheet of teaberry gum. What an odd thing for a bank to hand out. It was my favorite gum, though. So that always excited me. Still is my favorite, although super difficult to find now. As far as cars go, I’ve been through the gamut of “foreign” models, from Honda, Hyundai, etc, etc, but now I’m back to Chevy. I have a tiny bright blue Sonic hatchback. Suits me, as I’m only 5 feet tall. Chevy was my first (and most reliable) car. Should have stuck with that all along. Everything comes full circle I guess. And McDonald’s filet o fish is still my favorite fast food sandwich. On the rare occasion I eat fast food. And they still make Geritol...I recently tried it to increase energy...it doesn’t work lol. I also spent countless hours playing battleship with my brother, who has recently passed on. Great memories of amazing times here, Fred. I love coming back to Fred’s Place. It’s like coming back home. Thank you, Fred. Xx

Liquid Geritol has 12% alcohol. Colt 45 has 5.6 alcohol. Not that one drinks Geritol for it's taste, like Colt 45, but it gives you a buzz. Hee, hee!
