Love the polar pop one as kids we used to run around singing polar pop, polar pop bear...... And who didn't love the cadbury creme egg ad. Every easter it came on. I wonder what happened to the two kids in it. And the Barry crump ads were hilarious.
Goodnight Kiwi was such a classic if only TVNZ would bring that back not only for summertime but also do messages for holiday festivals and even spring fall and winter
been living in england since 1991 but i grew up in nz and remember a fair few of those ads from when i was a kid, the goodnight kiwi thing reminds me of staying up late in the school holidays and watching the sunday horrors and then the goodnight kiwi thing came on then it was off to bed
I actually don't remember any of these. I clearly remember the Bluebird chips one though, it used to be one of my faves as a kid. I was so happy they still play the ad with the old music. I like the one they played not long ago with the polar bear dressed as a penguin. SOOO FUNNY!
"bird bird bird bluebirds the word" LOLOL ... that bear still scares me from the cookie ad LOL ... miss but hated the goodnight kiwi, coz it meant no more tv and bed time LOL
i would love to see a part 2 im so fascinated by commercials from other places now i want to go toa georgie pies that place looks so cool new zealand is trully a beautiful place please make more id be grateful.
The old polar pop bear, the creme egg (dont get caught) the cookie bear and racheal hunter in the trumpet ad i remember most. But a few of these ads i notice are from the 90s. Mcdonalds, vodafone and telecom, the playstation, pizza haven was from the 2000s. I was born in '80, i miss all the cool tv programs and movies that were on back in the 80s and 90s.
Love you to make part 2 am looking for an ad my daughter was in. It was a Nestle ad. Three old ladies eating chocolate and then doing back somersaults. Loved your first set of ads
fanx for putting eagle boyz ad..brings back memories they should bring it back like georgie pie! and cracking up at the vodafone fones..back then you'll want a phone lol
I'm only 20 so I guess it makes sense I don't really remember any of these. One other one is the old Honey Puffs ad. That is on RUclips. Man I miss that! Sometimes some old ads will play on tv. That 'seal-a-fridge' one I clearly remember as a child. It is so old! I remember a few years ago they played the old hungry hippos and mouse trap game ads! They even had that 'break the chain' Nicotine old ad not long ago playing! I remember that so clearly as a kid
I'm the polar pop bear (polar pop polar pop) And I live in the pole...... Dang! I havn't seen that ad since primary school haha. But I knew the words. Just brilliant!! Thanks for the upload
I used to get birthday cards form Cookie Bear...i used to freak out, cause how the hell did he know it was my birthday??..scared the living day lights outta me...lol
far out a blast from the past that polar pop add i remember too clearly use to sing that song lol the creme egg add was a favourite back than but nothing was more reconizable than the channel two goodnight kiwi awesome days that was now we dont sleep till early mornings watching facebook shit and endless tv like foxtel lol
Mostly date between 1986 and 1996. Great video. Polar Pop video is 1989 remake, 1985 version does not have the new flavour part. Creme Eggs ad is actually British and dates from 1982, but it was played from 1983 to about 2000, it has a Kiwi voice over as well.
"Stop making love to that bottke baby you should be making love to me." Who remembers that ad? They had to change it to "go and have a cup of tea" after complaints
Just goes to show that Rainbows End hasn't kept up with the change of times still looks exactly the same, like its stuck in a time warp!! Man that place is shit lol
There are a couple of New Zealand ads I would like to see again, one is the Choquita (chocolate bar - Choquita gets you going!) surfing ad and the orher one is the Doc Martins ad with the girl painting. Are they here? Don't think I can do 23 hours lol.
They missed "eh Brucie eh eh" and the NZ Insurance ad with the cockatoo "who stole the telly? Who stole the telly?" Oh and the Morrison bikes ad "...its my freeway one the highway"...
they used to show goodnight kiwi at christmas time! I'm not sure if they still do though.. I moved to Australia ;( but last time I was in New Zealand at christmas they didn't show it
Those Cadbury creme eggs were so good back in the day and KFC sure is the great taste and I sure love a good McDonald’s for breakfast as it has always been a great start to the day and whatever happened to those 95c deals at McDonald’s back in the day
anyone notice how the clip 12mins long then grows to nearly 24hrs???
It’s probably a RUclips bug. Perhaps it’s also the fact this was posted 13 years ago as of 2024.
The most alarming thing about this collection is that I know them so well and yet I haven't seen most of them in over twenty years.
Interesting to see ads from other parts of the world. Thanks for sharing! ❤️ From Hawaii
I've never been to NZ (even tho I'd LOVE to) and I enjoyed watching these. Thank you for this great compilation.
Let me say EVERY Kiwi I've had the pleasure to meet has been freaking AWESOME and badass. Not pandering. I mean it. You're the best!
Thanks. I'm pretty crazy, also.
Pack ya bags, we're going on a nostalgia trip!
Great video - thanks mate! I really think a lot of "Kiwi" is now missing from our TV. Bring back the PIE and the Goodnight Kiwi!
That Oddfellows ad was funny but you'd never see something like that on TV these days haha can you imagine the outrage
Love the polar pop one as kids we used to run around singing polar pop, polar pop bear...... And who didn't love the cadbury creme egg ad. Every easter it came on. I wonder what happened to the two kids in it. And the Barry crump ads were hilarious.

The Hudson cookie bear sent me birthday cards in the seventies when i were a kid.thanks hudo. .miss ya old bear.
All the memories man, they need to bring everything back to how it used to be especially rainbows end😏
Part 2 would be awesome! Does anyone else remember the Gerard Roofing ad from the late 80's? That was priceless ...
You mean the John Rowles one? "Go for G-g-g-g-g-g-g-g-Gerard..."
been living in england since 1991 but i grew up in nz and remember a fair few of those ads from when i was a kid, the goodnight kiwi thing reminds me of staying up late in the school holidays and watching the sunday horrors and then the goodnight kiwi thing came on then it was off to bed
OMG nostalgic much? Love it, I remember most of these!
Fabalas! I left NZ 14 years ago.. live in the UK now.. this was a trip down memory lane.. thanks!!
Anytime you get homesick just find us on YT.
i cant believe i just happily watched 12 minutes of ads haha
I actually don't remember any of these. I clearly remember the Bluebird chips one though, it used to be one of my faves as a kid. I was so happy they still play the ad with the old music. I like the one they played not long ago with the polar bear dressed as a penguin. SOOO FUNNY!
love the goodnight kiwi
i could never get my p.k to just fall out of the packet
They were doing that in Wrigleys chewing gum ads in the 1960s.
No one ever could, except for an advertiser.
I remember trying as well.. never worked lol
haha Good old Georgie Pie, got me through my first two years at uni with the one dollar menus!!!
do you by any chance have the Sky Ad thats goes "Where's the remote?" "On the floor!"
That's in the 2000s I think. Not the 90s
"bird bird bird bluebirds the word" LOLOL ... that bear still scares me from the cookie ad LOL ... miss but hated the goodnight kiwi, coz it meant no more tv and bed time LOL
Guna have that polar pop song in my head all day now.
Cutest sign off I've EVER seen at the end.
+Berlin Saint Clair crazy to ever think the TV channels stopped after 10pm!
Berlin - that was the classic TVNZ signoff for many years before TV went to 24/7. I remember seeing that back in the 1980s.
I was hoping some oldies, but most of these are still fresh in my memory.
Check out the ads on my channel. They have their own playlist, some I've uploaded and some uploaded by others.
i would love to see a part 2 im so fascinated by commercials from other places now i want to go toa georgie pies that place looks so cool new zealand is trully a beautiful place please make more id be grateful.
GOODNIGHT KIWI!!! i was just old enough to know this
OMG! GOODNIGHT KIWI!!! SOMETIMES THEY STILL SHOW HIM AT CHRISTMAS!!!!
The old minties adds were classics.
The old polar pop bear, the creme egg (dont get caught) the cookie bear and racheal hunter in the trumpet ad i remember most. But a few of these ads i notice are from the 90s.

Goodnight Kiwi... Aww how I miss seeing that at the end of the night :(
Polar Pops were one of my favourite treats.
When i was little, i hated it when eagle boy threw the pizza at me! haha!
I'm the polar pop bear (polar pop polar pop)
And I live in the pole......
Dang! I havn't seen that ad since primary school haha. But I knew the words. Just brilliant!! Thanks for the upload
Wow trip down memory lane :) thanks mate
OMG! Polar Pop!!! LOL. This is bringing back memories. Good Stuff.
Isnt it funny how Rainbows End hasn't changed a bit, well give or take a few rides, lol
I sure loved those chocolate chippies and tip top trumpet from back in the day
my cousin used to work at eagle boys pizza and had to dress up as the eagle and stand outside waving a sign! lol those were the days!
That KFC ad was insane
3:36 Holy shit I remember watching that as kid!
I think we all do
I used to get birthday cards form Cookie Bear...i used to freak out, cause how the hell did he know it was my birthday??..scared the living day lights outta me...lol
YES!!! I thought it was going to be that one when it first came on
"Goodnight kids it's adults only time" hahaha miss those days..
And Jelly Meat, "Charlie, Tiger, Jelly meat for dinner".
God damn, I would never have made it through uni without Eagle Boys.
Georgie pie may be back at McDonald’s but it still remains a classic memory from back in the day and it will always a favorite family restaurant
go away ur spam
You haven't got the Rally of NZ ad with the two possums in the road at night and one says 'Check it out! Two moons!' Been looking for it for years...
Good old Georgie pie!
Got most nostalgic over the polar pop ad
I remeber these adds my era 80s
i miss these
goodnight kiwi would be the time when my parents would tell me to get my ass to bed already
not complete without the Fruju adverts!!!
ooooh ahhhh
I hope you're talking about the woman with blonde hair and brown eyes...not a natural blonde I'm thinkin'...
far out a blast from the past that polar pop add i remember too clearly use to sing that song lol the creme egg add was a favourite back than but nothing was more reconizable than the channel two goodnight kiwi awesome days that was now we dont sleep till early mornings watching facebook shit and endless tv like foxtel lol
Those cell phones are classic!
There will come a time when this video gets old.
Goodnight kiwi, I haven't seen that in years!
Aaaah, Good night kiwi (&cat).
oh my gosh polar pops!!!!! I miss home so much
Faaark look at those old as phones LOL
I'm the Polar pop Bear. lol
I think it was a missed opportunity not playing kiwi and the cat before they cut off analog tv.
It was an ad for Cheesells, that catchphrase has passed into the Kiwi vernacular! :-)
OMG THAT BLUEBIRD AD IS ON NOW BUT ANIMATED :D
Perky Nanas!!!!!! They were, THE best chocolates, ever.
Haha I remember those! lolz up til now I forgot bout them haha
MMMmmmM georgie pie!..miss that stuff
Mostly date between 1986 and 1996. Great video. Polar Pop video is 1989 remake, 1985 version does not have the new flavour part. Creme Eggs ad is actually British and dates from 1982, but it was played from 1983 to about 2000, it has a Kiwi voice over as well.
The girl in that ad was on Seven Days in 2018. I'm pretty sure she was a kiwi.
awesome, Check out how young Rachel Hunter in the trumpet ad is..!!!
"Stop making love to that bottke baby you should be making love to me." Who remembers that ad? They had to change it to "go and have a cup of tea" after complaints
Needs havoc
Rainbows end sure was wonderful back in the day since then
shut up
the rainbows end advert is the best
That's why I used to pronounce it Pukinana instead of perky nana. I thought it was Maori lol
Just goes to show that Rainbows End hasn't kept up with the change of times still looks exactly the same, like its stuck in a time warp!! Man that place is shit lol
That... Kid... Eating the Tire . . . what an Ad.
There are a couple of New Zealand ads I would like to see again, one is the Choquita (chocolate bar - Choquita gets you going!) surfing ad and the orher one is the Doc Martins ad with the girl painting. Are they here? Don't think I can do 23 hours lol.
This is supposed to be 23 hours long, but, oh well, it's 12 minutes short.
It’s probably either a RUclips bug, or perhaps the fact this was posted 13 years ago as of 2024.
Polar Bears in New Zealand? That's near the south pole, no Polar Bears there!!!!!!!
They missed "eh Brucie eh eh" and the NZ Insurance ad with the cockatoo "who stole the telly? Who stole the telly?" Oh and the Morrison bikes ad "...its my freeway one the highway"...
But whats it called?..LOTSA NOODLES!!!!! Ohhhhh lol
I got one card from him one year. Oh wait..that was Bumble -_- lol.
Lmao..yeah that was gold!!
Perkinana for 25 cents
Twisties today are cheese stumps
they used to show goodnight kiwi at christmas time! I'm not sure if they still do though.. I moved to Australia ;( but last time I was in New Zealand at christmas they didn't show it
Ahhh sure bring back some memories... Brings a tear to me eye.
@MSargeNZ I remember going to aussie in 1990 and hearing that exact PK wrigleys ad , except they obviously said ' a piece of australia' instead .
GEORGIE PIE, BRING BACK GEORGIE PIE.
No worries Renee matey!
Funny how the McDonald's $ and cents boxing one was the same animation portion here in the US.
I'm not sure the 'PK' was a Kiwi ad, it looks more like a yankee one. Always remembered the 'goodnight Kiwi. lol :)
That was the NZ one
It's very close to a Wrigley's gum commercial we had in the 1980s.
It’s an Aussie one.
its like 1 person did all the voice overs in the 90s
Honey Bran Biscuits, "tastes good Grandad"
Those Cadbury creme eggs were so good back in the day and KFC sure is the great taste and I sure love a good McDonald’s for breakfast as it has always been a great start to the day and whatever happened to those 95c deals at McDonald’s back in the day
ur gay
