    It's crazy. Growing up in the 80's (I was ten in 83) 37 years later and these jingles and have not heard them since, they come back at you like you never missed a beat or a lyric. And ya gotta love the He-man commerical.. sting not included.

    I had that Wicket the Ewok doll. The main thing I remember is that the Wicket doll had a Velcro hood that you could remove. And when you took off his hood, my brothers and I could not help but think he looked like the gopher from Caddyshack, which had started airing on TV around the time. And so, my brothers and I would often play a game where one of them would pretend to be Carl Spackler (Bill Murray's character in the film), and I would use my Wicket doll to play the part of the gopher. I actually remember playing this game more than I do playing his rightful role in the Star Wars Universe.

    Nowadays it's surreal to see a PSA advising 10-year-olds on walking home unsupervised after dark (without cell phones) but I remember it being that way as a kid. Parents could go hours not knowing where their small kids were--so glad I got to grow up when that was still possible

      The dark irony is that it was far more dangerous on city streets back then compared to today. Crime rates in the early-mid 80's were astonishingly high.

    Unlike many of the 80's commercials online, this one really brought me back as we had ABC Saturday morning cartoons in Canada, and I remember a lot of these. It was funny watching the Disney Phone...I thought it was stupid back then too. These commercials were really cool to watch (again).

    1:50 - At least at the beginning, they were acknowledging that it was a pretend adoption, instead of like in the later commercials, where everyone is freaking out over the kid "adopting" a Cabbage Patch Kid.

    Excellent set here showing the prime of early '80s youth life and a sort of innocence before MTV really went mainstream. GI Joe, My Little Pony, Masters of the Universe were all new and not yet repetitive. Star Wars was still popular even though "Return of the Jedi" had come out and was considered the end. I was still young enough to watch cartoons on Saturday morning and not be expected to do anything else.

    Santa brought me the Mickey Mouse talking phone for Christmas that year. I remember crying because I couldn't actually talk to the real Mickey and Donald with it.
    I think I still have the orange van and the Firebird Hot Wheel from the McDonald's commercial.

    There is only one thing I don't like about some (note some) 80s cartoons now that I'm an adult looking back at them, aside from writing quality (that's always going to be a problem when you're not in the target demo); but the poor use of leitmotifs, it just feels like they're adding in music that is unnecessary for the sake of not having quiet.

    Pioneer Chicken-always wondered why it looked so red
    Dizzy Drivers-see quite a few of these on the roads after your neighborhood bar closes

    Happi Returns-(deep voiced trailer announcer):"..and she ALWAYS will.
