What about the Budweiser Clydesdales commercials? I know they weren’t geared towards children but those horses were iconic and the theme song, too! The wagon they pulled was decked out in Christmas and their gear was as well. Loved those commercials. ❤️
My dad really loved Christmas. When that first Hershey Kiss commercial came out he liked it so much he wrote Hershey's a letter telling them exactly that. They sent him a big poster of the Kisses in the tree formation!
My mother used those commercials to very effectively convince half her children that beer was nothing more than horse piss and consequently those same two to this day still can't stand the taste or smell of beer.
Y’all should have done Campbells chicken noodle soup commercial where the little boy was a snow man and then turned into a boy again after eating the soup!! It warms the soul 😂
Hershey"s handbell choir has always been my favorite. I was truly expecting the Folger's commercial when big brother Peter gets home, and Budweiser is far more iconic than Fruity Pebbles or Coca Cola polar bears.
@@suzannehartmann946 It's a scene from WKRP in Cincinnati, widely considered one of the funniest episodes in TV history. You might be able to find it here on YT; the whole episode was posted at one time, but the clip mentioned is - it's funnier to see the whole thing.
The thing about the hershey's commercial (aside from being my favourite) is that it wasn't approved. Someone made it on a whim, without permission, and then ran it by the marketing, who put it on the air.
I was a child of the 80's and my favorite was the folgers coffee commercial from the 80's where the brother is being dropped off in front of the house and little sister comes down the stairs and her and the brother goes to make coffee and then the parents wake up and come down when the mom sees him she says oh Peter your home that was my Christmas commercial favorite.
i'm older than y'all, and my 2 favorite christmas commercial campaigns were folgers (i think) coffee which, of course, had a new one in the series every yr, and either kodak or poleroid, and those for several yrs starred james garner ("maverick" and "rockford") and mariette hartley.
@@cherylhee9762 I loved James Garner, too! He did another commercial with a little boy who called purple "praple". It was one of my favorite commercials.
The Folgers commercial is my favorite -- big brother home from college making coffee and the little sister comes downstairs. The kisses bells Commercial is a close second.
Like, where's the Norelco commercial with Santa riding the electric shaver over the snowy hills, and they'd spell it Noelco "even our name says Merry Christimas"?
The advertizers stated it was a "part" of the/this nutritious breakfast. It is a "part" ...yes, but the pictured breakfast is what's nutritious (eggs, toast, meat, juice, etc). Nothing is mentioned about the cereal being nutritious. The marketers duped you.
@@operationoverloard Back in the early 80s, I thought everyone except us had milk, juice, eggs and toast with their cereal every morning. I thought my family was poor.
I think Coke should bring back the commercials that showed diverse groups of people liking each other and singing: "I like the buy the world a Coke and live in harmony... it's the real thing". I think we need to be reminded of that these holidays.
The loss of innocence. There was a time when people where less cynical. We were poor and Christmas Eve my dad never failed to drive us around to look at lights. We each got fries and root beer from McD’s. Couldn’t afford other gifts. The world has become so tainted. How sad
Y'all missed the Budweiser Clydesdales Christmas commercials. FYI the second McDonald's one I remember seeing and I remember at the time is was so sweet and friendly like, but now I do agree it is creepy.
@@iwanttobelieve5970 Did not know that, I just remember spending the fall collecting the pecans between our 2 yards, shelling them, and then how special I felt getting to help in the kitchen making the pies and other sweet treats ❤️❤️
@@chrisrowland2223 I had never heard of it until moving to the Louisville, Ky area, home of the Kentucky Derby, as I’m sure you know. The company that makes them is called Kern’s. But like you and your grandmother did, most people just make their own. But it’s now my favorite pie.
Same bro. I miss my Mom and my Grandma. My mom had the best Carrot Cake that ever existed! Plus her Mac N' Cheese, sausage balls and Pizza rolls were amazing!! Miss the great women in my life. Keep your head up. They are looking down on you bro.
I remember sometime in the late 60s, early 70s, waiting for Ronald to come to a McDonald's for a visit. We were soooooo excited! We loved all those characters! Ronald isn't creepy, he's ketchup and mustard!! Ronald was around long before Stephen King started writing!!! Also, sugared cereal - NOT part of a nutrtious breakfast!
Not being rude, just a little sassy….do you not see the irony of your love for McDonalds vs your disdain for sugared cereal? ( Totally agree with you by the way.)
I used to be and remain to this day truly in fear of the clown, I'd always hide behind the nearest adult when he came, I did love the rest of the Mcdonalds crew tho.
Thank you! Their reaction to Ronald was so wrong! They totally missed the point that he helped a little girl that was running away from home see how special being at home is. Literally saved her from the streets! And the little boy creating a Ronald McDonald snowman? How awesome that Ronald showed up to join him. I love the It's a Southern Thing crew, and the majority of their content. But this one was a big miss.
@@cherikw Weird to me, too. Ronald was cool (Remember, Willard Scott was the first Ronald McDonald, the hamburger happy clown). But then I don't have that fear of clowns business. Bozo will never hurt me.
I'm old enough to remember Coke, Pepsi, and RC in glass (with peanuts thank you momma)... and taking them back for the deposit. Merry Christmas y'all from Tennessee!
Yes, Ronald McDonald is supposed to know magic. He's done magic in his commercials both back in the day and modern-day. And McDonaldland was most definitely a thing, you can get Funko Pops of McDonaldland characters. But it turned out McDonaldland was nothing more than plagiarism of a set from the show HR Pufnstuf. The producers behind that show successfully sued McDonald's for it. Getting rid of Ronald McDonald as their mascot is a crime against humanity
Loved it! I miss the Coke bears. The M&Ms and Hershey's commercials were the next best. I will agree that coke in a glass bottle is different, but not because it's a different formula but the feel of the glass makes it taste different.
My 2 favorite christmas commercials from the 90s were the campbells chicken noodle soup commercial(where the boy comes into the house as a snowman and melts as he eats), and the coca cola commercial where the santa is driving the coca cola train through town and a boy is running to catch it(because free sodas were being handed out), but he misses it and santa winks, magicing a bottle into his hand.
More than the polar bear Coke campaign, I love the older one where people are skiing at night holding candles and make a Christmas tree (I think) on the slope. The song playing is, "I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony. I'd like to buy the world a Coke and keep it company." Anyone remember that one?
I didn't get all that creepy stuff with Ronald. Y'all were born too late. Life wasn't always scary monsters and germs. Ronald was a safe friendly character so those kids were in no danger and I remember those commercials as magical. I do want an ice cold coke in a bottle right now. 😏And capitalism rocks. Beats the empty shelves we have now.
I’ve always said I wanted them to make an actual M&M tv show or movie that’s like the commercials. I also really miss the flintstones. I loved when pebbles and bam bam got married.
"He is serving up his friends to Santa as a sacrifice" "This commercial has been ruined for me now" says the guy who said the polar bears are extinct Fun fact: The voice of the yellow M&M is JK Simmons, the voice of Omni-Man from Invincible, J Jonah Jameson from the Spider-Man movies, Emil Skoda from Law & Order, and Tenzin from Legend of Korra. The Hershey's Kisses bells one was too iconic to change honestly, though I like the new one's message.
I'm from Pittsburgh, and it's not Christmas for me until I see the Eat-n-Park Christmas tree helping the little star get to to top of the tree. Its definitely the holidays after that.🌲+⭐=🎄
It's really disappointing how people just trash the McDonald's commercial. I think it has a lot to do with people popularizing hating and fearing clowns. And people being a bit more negative and cynical. People are less trusting and suspicious. As a child of the 80s and teen of the 90s, Ronald was considered silly and fun. I think it creeps people out too because he's not so much a part of the brand...so, naturally it feels off.
I agree! I bet it was an age thing. I assume I am older than most of the hosts and was in elementary school in the 80's. It was always known that Ronald McDonald was magical. I never felt creeped out by him. In fact, my 7th birthday party was at McDonald's in the playplace. It was amazing!
That one where the kid builds a snowman, I remember that, but also I knew how it felt to dream about Ronald McDonald coming out of nowhere carrying the bags of food cause mom screamed at me all the way home about "THE FOOD WE HAVE AT HOME"..
If you grew up with Ronald McDonald in the 1970's , you'd understand he was more a child's advocate, rather than a horror figure..of course this could just be a ' southern thing, ' because the south has always had issues. For example the Dozier school for boys in Florida .
First, if the Coke polar bear ads were honest, after the bear took a big drink of Coke he would have let out a huge burp. McDonalds should bring back Holiday McNuggets and I will die on that hill. "Oh yes, you'll float. Everything floats in McDonaldland!"
The Hershey's Kisses and M&Ms ones were the only ones I remembered. I also remember a Christmas-themed Campbell's commercial where a snowman goes into a house and melts into a little boy after eating some chicken noodle soup, which didn't make it into this video. That one was a classic.
Great memories!! Also a great memory... my parents, and me as a parent, not being expected to "Supervise" every outdoor activity, including building snowmen!
The Ronald ones.... HAHAHAHAHA...i remember them all and he was portrayed as the bestest friend from McD's you could ever have and yes, he did magic, and none of the commercials were creepy waaay back when.
i remember the mcdonals christmas commercial. my mimi had recorded it on an old vhs tape. along with all the others over time. when my mimi was healthy she was a walking and talking dvr! took pictures and recorded everything on a vhs player. that is why i am so much like her
There wasn't just Ronald, there was the Hamburglar, the Quarter Pounder was a Sheriff or something, the pack of fries sang and danced way before there were nuggets of any kind, and there was Sir Shakealot. Good times. My Grandmama used to get us a McDonald's coloring book calendar that had a coupon for something every month. Yay! Loved the rest. Yes, Fruity Pebbles still rocks! Merry Christmas, Happy Hannukah, and Festivus for the rest of us!
I lived in New England, (CT, NH, & Main,) & I lived in upstate NY. I've seen enuff SNOW, to last me a Life time!!! I guess I usually ignore commercials anyway, but especially the ones with Snow & Ice!!! I lived in FLA & Tenn. also. Give me the southern weather Any time of year!!! 😘😘😘😄😄😄💗💗💗💗💗
What about the Budweiser Clydesdales commercials? I know they weren’t geared towards children but those horses were iconic and the theme song, too! The wagon they pulled was decked out in Christmas and their gear was as well. Loved those commercials. ❤️
Those were my mom’s favorites
@@nmbat5036 My dad's too..
They were definitely geared towards kids 😂
No.
I was also hoping for them
Should have shown the Foger's big brother home for Christmas commercial.
Yes! I totally forgot about that one.
That one is 100 percent Christmas
I don't know,the siblings came off as having more of a couple vibe which was weird
My fave!
😭
My dad really loved Christmas. When that first Hershey Kiss commercial came out he liked it so much he wrote Hershey's a letter telling them exactly that. They sent him a big poster of the Kisses in the tree formation!
So I know this is months old but I needed some Christmas spirit today and reading this comment has made my day. Such a precious story.
@@LS-ew1zx So glad it made your day!!! ❤💚❤💚
My favorite Christmas commercials have always been the Budweiser Clydesdales Christmas Commercials.
They were mine, too! I still remember the jingle that went with them as well.
My mother used those commercials to very effectively convince half her children that beer was nothing more than horse piss and consequently those same two to this day still can't stand the taste or smell of beer.
Y’all should have done Campbells chicken noodle soup commercial where the little boy was a snow man and then turned into a boy again after eating the soup!! It warms the soul 😂
Yeeeessssss!!!! ☃️❄💗💗
Love that one
❤️❤️❤️
Yes!
I loved that one.
I’m so old, I remember the electric shaver commercial. It was where Santa was riding the shaver downhill through the forest. Good times.
My very FAVORITE commercial from my childhood!
Norelco.
@@bubbiesdad That’s the one!
That was my favorite
Yes, during the airings of Rudolph and Frosty features. They were Norelco commercials and they would change the lettering to spell Noel.
Budweiser Clydesdale Christmas commercials are the best!
Definitely! ❤️
Especially the one with the dog ❤
Hershey"s handbell choir has always been my favorite.
I was truly expecting the Folger's commercial when big brother Peter gets home, and Budweiser is far more iconic than Fruity Pebbles or Coca Cola polar bears.
I was expecting the Folgers one too.
Coca Cola was the first company to make Christmas commercials and put Santa Claus in them. They more iconic the the Clydesdales.
Folger's commercial was great until you watch the parody one. Then you are ruined for life.
Y'all need to remember this was before "It", before the "Clown scares", so Ronald Mc Donald was loved by kids
I was really expecting that Folger's coffee one when the oldest kid comes home from college and he and the little sister make coffee for the parents.
I like the one where Santa rides a Norelco razor downhill like a sled. Although it sounds weird and slightly dangerous...
Oh y'all forgot my favorite commercial! The Campbell's soup commercial with the kid dressed like a snowman ⛄
I’m surprised they didn’t show it.
In the immortal words of Arthur Carlson and Herb Tarlek... "As God as my witness, I thought turkeys could fly!"
Well, WILD ones can fly. They have not had their chests bred to ridiculousness.

The visitation from the Ghost of Christmas Future is not to get you to write Christmas bonus checks, but to determine how BIG those checks will be
The thing about the hershey's commercial (aside from being my favourite) is that it wasn't approved. Someone made it on a whim, without permission, and then ran it by the marketing, who put it on the air.
I share Mary’s cynicism about corporations telling us we’re all in this together. 😂
Yeah. Because you work for them if you believe it or not
Yes… in WHAT together!😂
Yup...get away from me!
I was a child of the 80's and my favorite was the folgers coffee commercial from the 80's where the brother is being dropped off in front of the house and little sister comes down the stairs and her and the brother goes to make coffee and then the parents wake up and come down when the mom sees him she says oh Peter your home that was my Christmas commercial favorite.
I love how I’ve never met any of these people, but we all remember these commercials from when we were kids, and have the same reactions to them.
I'd like to teach the world to sing in perfect harmony...
I'd like to buy the world a Coke -- not one coke for each person, mind you, but one Coke to be shared among all seven billion people.
I'm a Dr Pepper fan, but I LOVED the coke commercials
Exactly the one I was thinking of!! And the Folgers one when the older brother comes home early on Christmas morning.
This was not a Christmas add. I was made in the spring / summer.
i'm older than y'all, and my 2 favorite christmas commercial campaigns were folgers (i think) coffee which, of course, had a new one in the series every yr, and either kodak or poleroid, and those for several yrs starred james garner ("maverick" and "rockford") and mariette hartley.
I had such a crush on James Garner! The Kodak commercial always made me cry.
@@cherylhee9762 I loved James Garner, too! He did another commercial with a little boy who called purple "praple". It was one of my favorite commercials.
I miss the vintage Toys R Us commercials with the giraffe and snow.
Yes! I don’t wanna grow up! I’m a Toys R Us kid!!!
The Folgers commercial is my favorite -- big brother home from college making coffee and the little sister comes downstairs. The kisses bells Commercial is a close second.
Original Kiss bell commercial really brings me back to younger days!
The Rabbit never gets the Trix.
I now feel incredibly old. Your "old" commercials are pretty new to me. :(
Yup. Was looking forward to it and instead was greeted, mostly, with the fact that I am unfamiliar with them all. So strange.
Like, where's the Norelco commercial with Santa riding the electric shaver over the snowy hills, and they'd spell it Noelco "even our name says Merry Christimas"?
"I didn't know what a bill was..."
It was the thing sitting on Capitol Hill!
I love how the fruity pebbles commercial called it a "nutritional breakfast"
That did strike me as odd....as in You're Lying!
The advertizers stated it was a "part" of the/this nutritious breakfast. It is a "part" ...yes, but the pictured breakfast is what's nutritious (eggs, toast, meat, juice, etc). Nothing is mentioned about the cereal being nutritious. The marketers duped you.

Have you heard the original lyrics?
Anne Reburn has a version that is pretty nice. UNTIL the monologue at the very end! I cut that part off.
What ya don't like Polar Bears?
Paula Byrd, look up the original commercial. It’s here on RUclips.
Actually, M&Ms did an ad about the "cannibalism" thing with Patrick Warburton. It's definitely on YT.
The loss of innocence. There was a time when people where less cynical. We were poor and Christmas Eve my dad never failed to drive us around to look at lights. We each got fries and root beer from McD’s. Couldn’t afford other gifts. The world has become so tainted. How sad
Yep. Ronald was fun, and McDonalds was the place we could afford to eat at.
These brought back lots of memories! My favorite from the late 80’s/early 90’s was always the Folger’s Christmas commercial.
Oh, yeah! When the son comes home for Christmas and surprises his mom.
@@pattywilliams788 Peter's home!
Y'all missed the Budweiser Clydesdales Christmas commercials.

Those were awesome. I too am old.
Stephen King has a lot to answer for for making so many people freak out over clowns. LOL
“We all remember corporations telling us we’re all in this together” 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
The Kodak commercials always brought a tear to my eye. Merry Christmas y'all!
👻 let's talk about the Ghostbusters Christmas sweater ♡♡ that is awesome
I noticed that first thing!
Yes, Ronald McDonald is supposed to know magic. He's done magic in his commercials both back in the day and modern-day. And McDonaldland was most definitely a thing, you can get Funko Pops of McDonaldland characters. But it turned out McDonaldland was nothing more than plagiarism of a set from the show HR Pufnstuf.

Getting rid of Ronald McDonald as their mascot is a crime against humanity
Get a life . The Kim Jong thing ain't even relevant no more lol
Ronald McDonald is It!
I always liked Ronald Mcdonald and all the characters.
Ronald McDonald always annoyed & creeped me out so I'm glad they phased him out.
That was fun but side note: Your whole ENTIRE cast is insanely likeable :^) I'd hang out with ANY of them. Great casting guys!
Loved it! I miss the Coke bears. The M&Ms and Hershey's commercials were the next best. I will agree that coke in a glass bottle is different, but not because it's a different formula but the feel of the glass makes it taste different.
I remember those... and more.
All if these made me remember the Campbell's christmas commercial where the snowman melts into a kid when eating chicken noodle soup.
My 2 favorite christmas commercials from the 90s were the campbells chicken noodle soup commercial(where the boy comes into the house as a snowman and melts as he eats), and the coca cola commercial where the santa is driving the coca cola train through town and a boy is running to catch it(because free sodas were being handed out), but he misses it and santa winks, magicing a bottle into his hand.
Yes, I was going to bring the cola train up
Who could forget the M&Ms and Hershey Kisses commercials? They still show them.
Man. Now I want to see the one with Santa riding a Norelco razor around in the snow.
The cheesy commercials do hit hard.
More than the polar bear Coke campaign, I love the older one where people are skiing at night holding candles and make a Christmas tree (I think) on the slope.

To this day, I still love the Folgers ad when the son comes home for Christmas morning and the parents wake up to the smell of coffee..
The M&M’s and Santa was my favorite
I just saw that one recently.
The best line is "You know those hands are sticky". Merry Christmas to you all!
The Norelco electric shaver! Went on for years and kept looking better and better.
How could we forget about them...they still show em lol
Some of these old TV ads (such as M&Ms) still air today in either its original or remastered versions. Those ads even included the Cadbury ones.
Wow! What memories these ads bring back.
It wouldn't be a McDonald's Christmas commercial without a strong element of "Stranger Danger!"
I didn't get all that creepy stuff with Ronald. Y'all were born too late. Life wasn't always scary monsters and germs. Ronald was a safe friendly character so those kids were in no danger and I remember those commercials as magical. I do want an ice cold coke in a bottle right now. 😏And capitalism rocks.

Anyone remember the “Noelco” version of Norelco Shaver? Santa used it as a sled to go down snowy mountains. I loved that commercial! 🥰.
I’ve always said I wanted them to make an actual M&M tv show or movie that’s like the commercials. I also really miss the flintstones. I loved when pebbles and bam bam got married.
HOW did you not watch the Folger's Christmas commercial, where Peter breaks into his parents' house while everyone is asleep and makes coffee?
Best observation ever .... "I don't want Ronald McDonald whispering in my ear" .
Have a wonderfully blessed holiday season. Merry Christmas y'all.
"He is serving up his friends to Santa as a sacrifice"
"This commercial has been ruined for me now"
says the guy who said the polar bears are extinct
Fun fact: The voice of the yellow M&M is JK Simmons, the voice of Omni-Man from Invincible, J Jonah Jameson from the Spider-Man movies, Emil Skoda from Law & Order, and Tenzin from Legend of Korra.

A not necessary ugly comment. Should be deleted.
Felt like a walk down memory lane.
But Ronald McDonald was around before pennywise, so King based pennywise on Ronald.
Just his look besides that they are completely different….well and their love for children
First, if the Coke polar bear ads were honest, after the bear took a big drink of Coke he would have let out a huge burp.
McDonalds should bring back Holiday McNuggets and I will die on that hill.
"Oh yes, you'll float. Everything floats in McDonaldland!"
Y’all are so awesome!! I can always see my kinfolks on these videos lol
Wish they would do the cheerios commercial again with the baby all grown up
The in-sync “they do exist!” Gets me 😂
Thanks for bringing back some memories!
Best channel on RUclips!! Agree?!
This was great.
I always loved Ronald Mcdonald and all the other characters. I think its sad that Mcdonalds doesn't have a main kid theme anymore.
yep really messed there self up they had nice thing going there in the 90s
The Hershey's Kisses and M&Ms ones were the only ones I remembered.

Looking good Adam. I love watching all y'all.
Their reactions when the little girl took the Hershey kiss had me rolling 🤣
Great memories!! Also a great memory... my parents, and me as a parent, not being expected to "Supervise" every outdoor activity, including building snowmen!

The Evil Grimace; Hamburgler; Officer Big Mac; Mayor McCheese. Back when McDonald's was a rare treat.
The Hershey's Christmas commercial is my favorite. It always makes me smile. And Cocoa Pebbles are awesome.
When I’m given an ad I usually just skip it. But also, I just watched 13 minutes of commercials on purpose
Y’all have to remember, clowns only became creepy/evil recently. It was never a thing prior to I’m thinking 1990.
I’ve never seen any of these, cuz I don’t watch TV, have kids, or eat sugar. I learned a lot and y’all are fun no matter the topic! 🥰 Happy Holidays!
This is so funny! Do another one! PART 2 please!
I lived in New England, (CT, NH, & Main,) & I lived in upstate NY. I've seen enuff SNOW, to last me a Life time!!! I guess I usually ignore commercials anyway, but especially the ones with Snow & Ice!!! I lived in FLA & Tenn. also. Give me the southern weather Any time of year!!! 😘😘😘😄😄😄💗💗💗💗💗
As soon as the Fruity Pebbles commercial started, I thought “ho ho ho, I’m ha ha hungry”
Remember Ronald came W-a-a-y before King's It.
I love Cocoa Pebbles. Yum.
