Hey you guys! I am learning new editing software, so I made this video as a training exercise. So many memorable 80s commercials! Let me know what you think. Oh, and sorry for accidentally turning off the comments when I posted. That was a mistake.

That where’s the beef Wendy’s commercial ran through the kid 90s for sure because I remember- born in ‘86 here lol
It makes sense that commercial started airing in 1984
Oh and zest I can smell it now lol my great grandmother loved zest and Irish springs 🧼 lol ohhh nostalgia

I love how they say "nestles" but there's no S on the end, it's just Nestle.

Growing up in the 80s not only were TV shows great but commercials were also great to the point that in between breaks you would stay on the couch and watch the commercials because they were awesome, it's just a shame what had happened to the entertainment world

Born in 1970 and just sang every word to every single jingle. That Bounce commercial seems like it was on yesterday. Reminds me of after school tv watching . But the Folgers commercial actually made me tear up

Same with my parents taping off the radio — later they wanted those news and ads and Dan Ingram or the Real Don Steele that they edited out

7:22 – 7:50 is the most memorable and 2nd best (Coca Cola was number 1) commercial ever made between the 70’s and late 80’s (begin 90’s) and was shown all over the world.

Mars-Wrigley needs to look to the past to power their future!!! Their 40 year old jingles are seared into our brains proving their effectiveness!!!!

Missing from this compilation is “Calgon, take me away!” and “Now you’re cooking with Cisco”, which I still say to this day. If you know, you know.
