90's Commercials Vol. 16

These commercials aired on local Sacramento Affiliate KRBK 31 in November of 1990. Apologies for the quality, but better than nothing, right? Thanks to my cousin David for recording these. 1. Disney Afternoon Bumper 2. Hawaiian Punch (I always liked Punchy, the mascot with the antlers) 3. Ice Capades Barbie 4. AFX Super G-Plus Challenge 5. Beary Bears Fruit Snacks 6. DuckTales/Disney Afternoon Bumpers 7. Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles Action Figures (I remember getting the retro-mutagen torture rack for my sixth birthday) 8. Lucky Charms (I remember when they had these commercials it was like a never-ending roller coaster ride of suspense to see what new marshmallow shape would be unveiled. The 90's were so quaint in retrospect) 9. DuckTales/Disney Afternoon Bumpers 10. TV Spot for "The Rescuers Down Under" (One of my favorites as both a kid and adult) 11. Pop Tarts (Probably made by the same company who made the Bubble Tape commercials) 12. TYCO Zero Gravity Cliffhangers (I'm kind of glad I never got into these things. They look like a total hassle to set up for such little payoff) 12. TYCO R/C Blaster 13. Skippy Scribble (When will the seemingly ceaseless barrage of creepy animated dolls come to an end!?!) 14. Golden Grahams (I remember this being portrayed as the "hip" teenage cereal for awhile. Again, the 90's were very quaint)

Order in which they appear: 1. Ford Aerostar Van 2. Toyota Make My Day Sales Event 3. Pontiac Lemans Wow! $5799 4. Chevrolet Heartbeat of America 5. Buick Regal 6. Corolla vs. Isuzu 7. Ford Quaility is Job 1. 8. Chevrolet Camaro 9. OldsMobile Eighty-Eight Royal 10. AeroTurbo Hopper Tyco RC 11. OldsMobile Cutlass Ciera 12. Western Mass Chevy Deals First thing that comes to my mind is where are the cheap car of that day. I hardly knew anything of a Pontiac Lemans, but at least it didn't take too many lemons to buy it. What do you think of these vehicles, their makers, & the dealers for these specific commercials? Any flaws in their advertising, strengths? Hope you enjoy!

90's Commercials Vol. 18

These commercials aired on local Fox affiliate KCBA on October 26th, 1996. 1. Mystery Mansion (I miss cheesy, electronic board games that you only play once or twice) 2. "James And The Giant Peach" on VHS (I probably haven't seen this movie in a decade) 3. Star Wars: Shadows Of The Empire Slave I and Outrider Vehicles (I'm pretty sure that's Mark Hamill announcing this) 4.

Yes on Prop 211 8. Salinas Valley Memorial Hospital "Buckle Up For Love" PSA (Even though I haven't seen this in over a decade, it's sort of ingrained into my memory. It was on ALL THE TIME where I lived) 9. TV Spot for "Larger Than Life" (I'm glad Bill Murray's acting career got back on track) 10. Promo for "Star Trek Voyager" 11. Teacher Barbie (I guess this wasn't the one that said "Math is hard") 12. Kellogg's Pop Tarts (With Gilbert Gottfried as the toaster) 13. Wonder World (I had the one with the Piranhas) 14.

Monterey Peninsula Auto Pawn (I wish I had a Fairy Pawnmother) 18. Red Lobster (New menu not in Hawaii) 19. Cris Cassara Menswear (I'm glad that the US government was able to contain that terrible Macarena outbreak. We lost a lot of good people to that ...
