Commercials From the 90s Were Completely Wild

Matteo Lane | February 12, 2026



90s and 2000s commercials were pure chaos — snack ads, toys, random products, and of course the unforgettable HeadOn spot. They were loud, weird, and somehow completely normal at the time… but watching them back now? What was going on.

In this video, Matteo reacts to some of the wildest old commercials — from Go-Gurt to the Snuggie — and breaks down why TV in the 90s felt like it was made by people on zero sleep and too much sugar.

    I absolutely appreciate hearing your friend's voice after you imitated it in your shows, because it is so spot on! I actually tapped into a repressed childhood memory because he sounds like the narrator from Samurai Pizza Cats

    I think we're just gonna have to include se Wisconsin in "just in Chicago" because I saw all these ads as a kid and I don't remember a time when I DIDN'T know the Empire jingle 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
