A bunch of commercials that aired on ABC on March 13th, 1987. Be prepared to hear the phrase "Breakfast By The Hand" a lot during this particular compilation. For fun, take a shot every time this phrase is uttered.
1. McDonald's - "Good Timing" (Notice the giant phone he grabs at the end)
2. U.S. Army (And this is supposed to make me want to join how?)
3. U.S. Army (Emasculation total)
4. Volkswagen GTI (People singing in German have always scared the crap out of me)
5. Loreal Studio Line (Again, the influence of widespread cocaine use during the 1980's rears its ugly head)
6. Promo for ABC's "Wide World Of Sports"
7. McDonald's - "Breakfast For 4" (It'd be awesome if these guys had a sitcom where did literally nothing but sing in unison all of the time)
8. Volkswagen Golf (Question: When women are driving, are they constantly wondering if the dude behind them is checking them out?)
9. Avon (I love cheesy saxophone music from the 80's)
10. South Bay Health Center Dental Services (You know this guy was either an anchorman or game show host at some point)
11. KNTV 11 News Break (AIDS Scare!)
12. McDonald's - "The New Kid" (Against all odds, I hope this guy is still alive making Egg McMuffins)
13. Comtrex (Why does this sound like an evil corporation?)
14. Promo for "We Are The Children" (Ally Sheedy - learning about life's choices. Ted Danson - a cynic with a heart. Their love grew where nothing else could...Poetry, sheer poetry.)
15. Sunnyvale Ford (Damn, it's pretty amazing how cheap things used to be...)
16. McDonald's - "Special Delivery" (They really had the jingle writers working overtime for these commercials)
17. Bud Light (OK, this is frightening)
18. McDonald's - "Hot Hands" (Does anybody know who the girl at the end is? I'm sure she's either an actress, model, or both, and I can't put my finger on who she is. I'm thinking Kathy Ireland...maybe.)

I love that McDonalds commercial with the old man. ❤️

They don’t make commercials like this anymore

@Retrofanatic10 13 лет назад

That McDonald's commercial ``the New Kid'' was probably the most heart wearming Mickey D's commercial I have ever seen. Seriously that was really sweet. They sure don't make `em like that anymore , huh?

@dignityshmignity 10 лет назад

Smiling McDonald's employees- that MUST BE a commercial.

Omigosh! I remember that Studios hairspray. It would make your hair turn plastic. I would use it to tease/style my bangs, and my bangs would go crunch when I would touch them.

@hoteljason 10 лет назад

Most of these aired during the Beach Boys' 25th anniversary special. I was 12 years old at the time. Great times! Thanks for sharing. :-)

@territorygal 12 лет назад

Now there's something I never thought I'd see - an Avon ad! I have a friend (he's old enough to be my dad) who lost a lot of good friends during the AIDS crisis in the 1980s. It was a scary time. I was too young, all I remember were kids singing "Ding dong the f-gs are dead." Probably heard it off their parents. The a capella quartet singing "Breakfast By The Hand" has got to be the best McD ad I've ever seen. Epic.

@armanddeblois463 7 лет назад

such beautiful music back in the 80s.

@RHGarciaApr85 14 лет назад

Jeez, all that first commercial did for me was wishing for a breakfast muffin. And I wish that McDonnald's would sell breakfast 24 hours a day. 80sCommercialVault, I've been enjoying your uploads for the past few days.

@MrBamaDave 10 лет назад

I remember most of these.

@80sCommercialVault 15 лет назад

Maybe I'm just naive, but whenever I watched this commercial growing up, I always just assumed the old guy wanted to keep busy in his old age, not take some minimum wage job simply for the money. Some old people think retirement is a quick way to grave. And I think McDonald's is still in the practice of hiring elderly folks for shifts in the morning, just like the guy in this commercial, but I'm not sure.

@Tr0nzoid 2 года назад

That Volkswagen Golf commercial used the music from the Wang Chung song "Wait." That song was another of theirs from the "To Live and Die in L.A." soundtrack that was used in commercials at that time.

@walkerbrown8591 10 лет назад

How was McDonald's so good at making cheesy commercials that warmed your heart?

@Handlethis81637 10 лет назад

Don't know, but I do like the non asshole-ish way in which things used to be promoted and conveyed.

@zionix15432 10 лет назад

most commercials were like that back then. they appealed to the common man, which was kind of what the times were about.

@80sCommercialVault 15 лет назад

The show I recorded these from was sponsored by McDonald's. That's why there are so many McDonald's ads.

@timothysprengeler4071 3 года назад

I love the one with the doo-wop group!

@80sCommercialVault 15 лет назад

It seems a bit excessive until you remember that gas was only around 95 cents then.

@80sCommercialVault 14 лет назад

These ads were probably filmed during the first and last hour of sunlight...often called the "magic hour" or "golden hour" by cinematographers. Because these commercials in particular are advertising breakfast at McDonalds, it was almost certainly an intentional choice. I can kind of see it in other ads, but it's definitely not as prominent as it is here. Also, a few of my tapes tend to have kind of a yellow tint to them...either because of age or the broadcast quality back then.

@timothysprengeler4071 3 года назад

I'd kind of forgotten about "Breakfast by the Hand," but I remember "It's a good time for the great taste of McDonald's" very well.

@LOWROLLER72 11 лет назад

hey vault, thx for all the memories! i remember most of these commercials. im looking for the contact commercial where they open the capsule and the little balls of medicine bounce out. i remem seeing it b4 but i dont rememb which volume. thanks! LR

@whichwaytothebuffet 12 лет назад

Ha, me and my sis got the song Barbara-Ann stuck in our heads and now we have this one stuck in our heads! :)

@seattlesfinestwrx 15 лет назад

All of the McDonald's commercials are classics in the sense that they're so damn catchy, but my favorite was actually "The New Kid" one because it so damn sweet. You're right Mike, the sax was so cheesy but oh so good.

@RyelSteele 9 лет назад

Poor old guy. Went to work at McDonald's because he couldn't pay that $12 copay for that dental exam. ... Oh wait. I forgot. This was the 80's. Also, his fishing friend was like "Well, diabeetus!"

No. She was already doing movies/TV at this point.

I Heard Breakfast by the hand 11 times.

@madscout96 15 лет назад

1:30... the Volkswagen GTI has 16 valves??? Jeez... those days are LONG gone lol

@80sCommercialVault 15 лет назад

"Little GTO" was by Ronnie and the Daytonas actually.

@christLive21 15 лет назад

Cool!! 2 Days B4 I was born. The 80's totally rock!!!

@emmysrandomreport 14 лет назад

Kathy Ireland was already famous in 1987 for being on Sports Illustrated for 3 years by then. It looks like a young Reese Witherspoon who would have been 10-11. The big hair and lighting makes her look older but, it is the rolling eyes look she gives the sandwich at the very end that ids her. It is the same look she gives in most of her movies. She did start modeling and commercials at 7 so, it is possible. What do you think?

@beckigreen 13 лет назад

I'm sure someone driving a Trans Am or Firebird really cares about a Volkswagen Golf!!!

@rudybelle 15 лет назад

The McDonalds quartet commercial reminds me of Ted's band on Scrubs....

@mammothfilms 15 лет назад

It seems McDonald's commercials were longer back in the 80s. I think that is Kathy Ireland at the end of the last McDonald's commercial. I wonder if she spit that bite out after the director said cut.

@RoxyAlexander 14 лет назад

RE: chick in MCDonald's Hands commercial...she does look like Kathy Iremand, but she also looks like Kelly Preston. Both women were already making movies by 1988 (although low-budget), but I guess a paycheck is a paycheck!

@gwmadhatter 11 лет назад

Such a shame McDonald's is not what it used to be it used to be real food not preservatives imitations flavors and chemical induced meat.I remember the taste of the old Mcdonald's breakfast muffins and it tasted different back then fresh and hot and ready nowadays it's like microwave processed food.I stop eating mcdonald's once the 2000's came they changed it.

March 13th, 1987-the day both Evil Dead 2 and Raising Arizona came out!

oh dear sweet jesus that Studio commercial.

studio studio studio studio studio studio

@aoinatafanboy84 15 лет назад

if the volkswagen commercial makes you feel any better. They were singing beach boys.

@pswitch9553 5 лет назад

A Golf with square headlights?!

@80sCommercialVault 14 лет назад

@TheEmilyRoseShow Um, that's clearly not an 11 year old girl, and it's definitely not Reese Witherspoon. I tend to agree with the poster who pegged it as Mary Catherine Stewart from "Weekend At Bernies".

@CelesteK 15 лет назад

Hey that looks like Rockappella from Where In The World Is Carmen Sandeigo.

@hunterhamilton6494 5 месяцев назад

Does anyone else think of “Bye Bye Bye” by *NSYNC when the Mickey D’s commercials come on?

@80sCommercialVault 5 месяцев назад

No. It's a parody/rework of Barbara Ann: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE--bSnI-a0BSc.html

5 McDonalds commercials in the space of 7 minutes and 44 seconds. Damn I want a McDonalds like something unholy. @_@ Corporate American 80's, you win again!

@shacks29 11 лет назад

They sing German in the GTI commercial...I was like WTF? I didn´t exspect that.lol

@DEMERL 12 лет назад

Yes!

i love the avon commercial!!!

@dieppechick 13 лет назад

4:20..... that old man is so adorable....unfortunately this is not how fast food industry works.....but it should work like this. :)

@RoxyAlexander 14 лет назад

Upon further review- I think this might actually be Kerri Green (from Lucas, the Goonies, etc)

@gleeb0278 14 лет назад

"The New Kid" ad nearly brought me to tears; however, I've never ever in my whole life seen an old person in fast food who moved that quickly. Also, is the girl at 4:57 the older sister from the movie "Man in the Moon?"

@MissMovieMontage 12 лет назад

Hey, it's Bosley from Charlie's Angels narrating the Bud Light commercial! Poor Bosley.

@Ribelin2000 14 лет назад

Looks like Catherine Mary Stewart (the chick in Weekend at Bernie's)

@demonwx10 11 лет назад

3:00 lol that other car looks so much better

@j2times2006 3 месяца назад

Nowadays that old man is working at McDonald's because he has to not because he wants to

@CelesteK 15 лет назад

They're still pushing the importance of breakfast even now.

@barnie7219 14 лет назад

The ad implies that a VW Golf will outrun a TransAm.

@TNTITAN 14 лет назад

You got to feel sorry for the army, the marine ads of the 80's were just so much better. One had you doing stuff before 9:00 am, the other you were stopping dragons and evil wizards from ruling the world.

@BryceStradling 15 лет назад

damn was "oh ya" in every commercial in the 80's? i heard it in a mcdonalds commercial as well. Yello prob still rake it in from that song.

@80sCommercialVault 14 лет назад

Hmm, warmer. I don't think that's her though. I think it might just be some unknown actress that happens to look like every other cute 80's girl.

@ryguy270 10 лет назад

the guy on the left, that Tom Kenny, Spongebob

@ESCFanCH 8 лет назад

If I didn't know any better I'd say this montage was sponsored by McDonald's.

@LenaAndreia 13 лет назад

...y'know, I kinda miss phones. Regular phones, I mean. These cellphones are great, sure, but those big phones were so much easier to hold on your shoulder when you're doing something (or if you just want to give your arms a rest). That "new kid" commercial is pretty sad. I know older people at our local fast food joints (and grocery stores) that have to work that job in order to buy medication. ...when this was made that seems to have been out of the ordinary. How sad for old people today...

@chalklounge 12 лет назад

All of the people eating McDonald's in those commercials are now dead.

@JimRockford853 11 лет назад

More like too bad there aren't enough good elderly people like this willing to work!

@elineff6959 11 лет назад

McDonald's, Number 12, that's a cute older couple!!

@datimpster 15 лет назад

Meg Ryan at the end in the McDonald's commercial... ?

@alyfan1 15 лет назад

ok again, just not right! did anyone else catch the fact that one of the Dr's in the South Bay commercial shares his name with one of the inventors of the modern day zombie? and yes thats kathy by the way, i should know i had a crush on her most of my teenage years ( what teenage boy didn't).

@MattieCooper10000 14 лет назад

"Men, they never stick around"... There's something you'd never hear in a commercial today. What the F#$!@#$@??

@thefutureA 14 лет назад

haha gotta love the 80s

@xavierbrenner4746 11 лет назад

What was it with Dica Dica da in the 80's?

@80sCommercialVault 13 лет назад

@MattTheSaiyan I think allowing people to buy Egg McMuffins at any time of day or night might have some unforeseen consequences. Down would be up, black would be white...panic and hysteria would quickly engulf the streets of America. Not to mention the inevitable muffin, cheese, egg and ham shortages and the violent riots that would ensue.

@53Playmate 15 лет назад

A commercial about an 80 year old working at McDonald's oh Please

@madscout96 15 лет назад

That's exactly what I mean

@aoinatafanboy84 15 лет назад

ah, well you knew what I meant. The beat was of a familiar song.

@dan0122333 11 лет назад

Well said. Just the thought of all day mcmuffins sent me into a frenzy of trying to lick my elbow. Does anyone know how hard it is to lick your own elbow?

@Retrofanatic10 12 лет назад

@Lmaox94 If that's how you look at it , then that's pretty shallow. I don't care if it's Red Lobster or Outback , it's not about the food , it's about the message of the commercial. I look for the underlying message , not what the commercial is trying to sell ( which I have the choice to buy or not to buy ).

@seattlesfinestwrx 14 лет назад

Huh, for some reason my computer stops this at 1:09.

@foxxyloxx 8 лет назад

So the prompt-to-the-point-of-having-OCD guy in the first commercial is an "Efficiency Expert?" Oh ho, McDonald's, you so funny. The Army ad may as well have said, "In the Army, you'll wake up earlier than civilians, AND do more work than they do, too!" I had a feeling that it was Rockapella (The Carmen Sandiego guys) in the 4 Guys McDonald's ad, but then I saw the comment that said Tom Kenny was on the left at the end, and I thought he was right. THEN I saw another comment that said it was a Chicago group called 4 Guys Standing Around Singing, so I had to Google whether Tom Kenny was in 4 Guys, and he wasn't, and why the hell do I do this to myself? Regardless, I'd love those idiots to follow me everywhere with a singing-commentary. LOVE the Avon ad! Oh so '80s! In the end of the Comtrex ad, when it pauses, it seems like they're going to tell you the chick died. I like the way the announcer pronounces it "SUNNYvale Ford" every time he says it.

@chalklounge 12 лет назад

Lemme show you how I go to mother's without missing a beat.

@naughtybeast 6 лет назад

If i had to guess who the actress is, i would say Kerri Green, she played "Andy" on the goonies.

@foxxyloxx McDonald Breakfast made me who I am today. 250 lbs of Breakfast

@punishedexistence 11 лет назад

All Mickey D's is good for anymore is their breakfast...admittingly terrible for you but it still tastes decent. The rest of the food there and BK is total garbage...I haven't had any of that crap in years and I tell ya I've lost weight. I miss the magic of the old commercials. Sometimes it's corny but still it warms my heart, I was probably between 7-9 when most of this stuff was on, except here in Ohio it was different car dealerships. Ahh, miss the old days.

it's a good thing you just crept in the 80's then if you were born in 89 :]

@Lmaox94 12 лет назад

@Retrofanatic10 I found it a bit depressing. the guy's retired already and now he's taking some shitty fast food job.

and and the ending to it is so tacky 0_o

@foxxyloxx 14 лет назад

McDonald's - "Breakfast For 4" (It'd be awesome if these guys had a sitcom where did literally nothing but sing in unison all of the time) I agree wholeheartedly. 4:19 "Hey Bill, wanna go see shit?" j/k, I know it's 'fishing', but it took me about 5 times to realize it. P.S. Breakfast by the hand!
