I'm ready for a walk down memory Lane. Show me the commercials you used to love over the years! Can be from your childhood, teen years, when you were a young adult, heck, even something a year old works as long as it's something you used to love to see!


To start us off, I remember loving these safety commercials as a kid.





And I always wanted the blue popcorn.

This one lives rent-free in my head. My dad taped some episodes of the Pound Puppies for me when I was a kid, and this commercial was on the tape. I watched it so many times, I think the commercial is seared into my brain at this point.

Ooh I remember that one! We have some stuff taped off TV with the old commercials too. Streaming them or watching the rerelease on DVD doesn't feel quite the same without those wacky commercials in between.




And you just reminded me of another commercial stuck in the corners of my mind: the pizza hut commercial on the VHS tape for the land before time. That guitar at the end heart

One commercial I remember fondly was The Legend of Zelda: Wind Waker for the Nintendo GameCube, I seen it so many times back than that I could recite it by heart

I remember both of those! Never could convince my folks to get me moon shoes.


Anyone remember Skip it? The song sometimes runs in the back of my head over 30 years later xd

Did your parents say you'd break your ankle if you got them? That's the excuse my parents always gave. "No ER visit for you!" xd

...

Make sure to add a commercial you used to love!




Speaking of which, anyone remember the Pizza head commercials from Pizza hut? I couldn't get enough of these when they came on the air!

Nope, my mother just said that they were too expensive and not worth it because there's no way they'd bounce as well IRL as in the commercials, lololol. Which, fair, I guess. Was still super disappointing at the time, though, asdfghjkll-- cat_sweatdrop
