The most psychopathic thing about this Muppet is that he makes sure to have a cheesy one liner prepared for each murder he commits. He's like an actual scary version of the Joker.
Wontkins: "Help!! I'm tied to the tracks!!" Wilkins: "Do you drink Wilkins Coffee?" Wontkins: "No!" Gets hit by the train Wilkins: "Wilkins helps you get on the train."
(Wilkins is doing heart surgery on Wontkins) Wontkins: Are you sure this is safe? Wilkins: Do you drink Wilkins instant coffee? Wontkins: Wouldn't touch it. (Wilkins takes the heart and throws it away) Wilkins: People who don't drink Wilkins really are heartless!
@@SpaceBeans1024 Wilkins: "Thank you for choosing to fly with Wilkins airlines. Would you like some instant coffee?" Wontkins: "No, I don't like coffee." Wilkins: "I'm afraid we'll have to relocate you to a different part of the plane then." *he throws Wontkins into the turbine* Wilkins: "People who don't like Wilkins instant coffee just don't fly with me."
@@auditect950 Wontkins: “What does that portal lead to?” Wilkins: “Brazil. It’s for people who don’t drink wilkins instant coffee” Wontkins: “I never tried it” Wilkins: *banishes Wontkins into Brazil* Wilkins: “even Brazil likes wilkins”
Wontkins: “what’s down there, Wilkins?” Wilkins: “I don’t know, but I sure know it’s full of people who don’t drink Wilkins” Wontkins: “Wilkins sucks” Wilkins: *Pushes Wontkins into the depths* Wilkins: “he’ll have one heck of a time”
SpongeBob: want a krabby pattie with your shake? Squidward: can't say that I do SpongeBob: *smacks the shake onto Squidward's face* can't say that you don't either *dumbs hot fresh fries on him*
Wilkins: how about some Wilkins instant coffee? Wontkins: No! (A car slams into Wontkins) WHAM!!!!! Wilkins: without Wilkins instant coffee you’ll feel run down.
*Wilkins* : hey buddy do you want Wilkins coffee or brand X? *Wontkins* : whats so good about Wilkins coffee? *[brand X explodes]* *Wilkins* : well one thing it doesn’t blow up.
26:49: A rare occurrence where Wontkins actually doesn't get hurt and gets something other than Wilkins Coffee, Sure there's those Frank's commercials where he likes it but for Wilkins Coffee this is somewhat a first 🥇
Wilkins: Do you drink Wilkins Coffee? Wontkins: No. (Cuts rope holding background) Wilkins: You don't make the cut if you don't drink Wilkins Coffee. Wontkins: I need to hire a new agent.
I feel like the non-Wilkins commercials are at a higher quality than the Wilkins commercials. Also, Frank's is the only brand that Wontkins enjoys. ...and that's only sometimes.
I like to imagine that these two exist in the Muppet universe, but are actually like super-close friends... even if they sometimes get way too heated over their coffee preferences.
Wontkins: (wearing Knight armor and looking up at tower) Rapunzel, Rapunzel, let down your hair. Wilkins: (wearing princess dress and peeking out of a tower) Did you bring a cup of Wilkins Coffee? Wontkins: No (gets crushed by anvil dropped on him) Wilkins: (looks at audience) Not all princes are worth rescuing me!
Wilkins: *Breaks a bottle over Wontkin’s head* Wontkins: *Dizzy* That bottle of vodka, is it Frank’s? Wilkins: Yeah! Wontkins: Thanks! *Proceeds to fall unconscious*
@@martian_2876 Many people over-react to alternate opinions, and often become angry/violent at the mere thought of someone having a different perspective of something. The immediate reaction to "not liking coffee" being shot isn't far off from how some people react with extreme feelings in regards to other petty/mundane things. I will admit that my own original comment was a bit exaggerated, but I don't think many people would scrutinize it that much. I hope this helps and that you have a nice day.
@ Liam Paiva Acosta Actually, no. They *PRODUCED* commercials for different (local) brands/companies across the U.S. and recycled the *SCRIPTS* for each of them.
Wilkins: Do you think you'll ever drink Wilkins coffee? Wontkins: I don't see that happening. Wilkins: *sprays mace in Wontkins' eyes* People who don't drink Wilkins coffee don't see things clearly! Alternatively Wilkins: Would you like a cup of Wilkins coffee? Wontkins: I don't see that happening. *Giant framed photo of Wilkins coffee can falls on Wontkins, crushing him* Wilkins: People who don't drink Wilkins coffee fail to see the big picture!
I love the implication, because of all the brands that wanted Jim Henson's services, that Wilkins isn't loyal to Wilkins and is just a sadist who will abuse this poor guy to shill for any brand that would pay.
Wilkins: Do you want some Wilkins cofee with your cake! Wotkins: No I'll just take the cake Wotkins: Chokes to death on cake Wilkins: Drinking Wilkins is as easy as cake!
Interesting question. I would presume that they're owned by the Jim Henson Foundation, but I don't know for sure. If the copyright wasn't renewed, it's even possible the characters have fallen into the public domain (though the law is complicated with regards to works from that period, and it would probably take more work than it's worth to find out, or a professional's help).
Wil: Wilkins Coffee packs a punch! Wont: I'm not convinced. (SHORYUKEN! A fist from below sends Wontkins into space!) Wil (looking up after him): How about now?
Wontkins:ready for liftoff Wilkins:say did you bring any Wilkins coffee on board Wontkins:no 3 2 1 “Wilkins blasts off” Wontkins: Wilkins coffee really is out of this world
Wikins: do you drink wilkins coffee? Wontkins: never had it (Wontkins floats away) Wilkins: people who drink wilkins intant coffee are realy down to earth
I still see strawberry Faygo and I think Community Coffee is big in Louisiana (turns out it is based in Louisiana), they served it for free at the visitors center I pass by.
(Wilkins and Wontkins are in the graveyard) Wontkins: Now, this is a creepy place to be in at this night. Wilkins: You drink Wilkins Coffee? Wontkins: No. (Wilkins kicks Wontkins in a hole of a grave) Wilkins: No Wilkins Coffee equals a huge grave mistake! Bring out the moon, boys!
Red Pearl: Okay buddy what do you think of Red Diamond Coffee? Spinel: I never tasted it! (BOOM) Red Pearl: (aims cannon at viewers) Now what do you think of Red Diamond?
With these commercials, Jim Henson did exactly what I would have if I were given the opportunity in college. I have a feeling we would have gotten along. He did say his biggest regret was doing Sesame Street, because it cemented his work as being seen as for children in the eyes of the public; an image he tried unsuccessfully to escape.
And they say, around the studio backlots, the Wilkins puppet still lurks. Animated by a burning obsession to convert the world to a single coffee, he torments those who cross his path. Vainly do they cry, 'I can't... I can't drink it.... it doesn't exist anymore.... spare my life! '
New drinking game: take a shot for every commercials that doesn't involve anyone getting hurt. It's the best kinda drinking game because afterwards, you can legally drive home!
Wilkins: Do you drink Kramel milk? Wontkins: I don't touch the stuff. Wilkins: Here, step outside. (Wontkins steps outside in the freezing cold) Wilkins: You'll be left out in the cold if you don't drink Kramel milk.
Years Later... Wilkins: "I have a strange feeling something's off." Wontkins: "Did you have some Wilkins Coffee this morning?" Wilkins: "Yeah." (gets tackled by the police) "D'AAH!" Wontkins: "Isn't revenge sweet?"
*it begins with wilkins and wontkins in a bar* wilkins: want some wilkins coffee? Wontkins: nah just gimme some beer. *wilkins grabs a hose and sprays acid on him* Wilkins doesn't melt like him.
Most coffee commercials: Our coffee is the best way to start your day? Wilkins Coffee commercials: Drink our coffee if you want to live to see the light of day.
Wilkins: There's a little Dick Shenarie book here, and another kind of book. Wontkins: I want the cheap stuff! (birds cheeping) Wilkins: Sorry, but that other book's for the birds!!!!!
Wilkins: Do you need some Wilkins codes to start your day? Wotkins: No I don't drink coffee Wilkins: "Murders Wotkins in his sleep" WIilkins: Without Wilkins, You'll never wake up!
It's so weird to see Wilkins and Wontkins peddling for these other coffee brands (Red Diamond, Community, Nash's, La Tourraine) and even non-coffee products (Taystee bread, Frank's soda, etc.),
Me: Okay buddy, what do you think of Jeremy's Hot Chocolate? Wontkins: I never tasted it... *Shoots cannon* Me: Now what do you think of Jeremy's Hot Chocolate
New ideas... 1. Lethal Injection: Wilkins (holds up Lethal Injection): Any Last requests? How about a cup of Wilkins Coffee? Wontkins (shaking but stubborn): No, I don't touch the stuff. Wilkins (injects needle in Wontkins, ending him): Oh, well. I gave him a shot at it. 2. At the Farm Wilkins (holding pitchfork, southern accent): Howdy, there! Want a cup of Wilkins Coffee? Wontkins: I'd rather drink dirt. Wilkins (raises Wontkins with Pitchfork): Time to get the manure removed from my farm.
Wontkins: Burgers are done. All we need is bread. Wilkins: Taystee Bread? Wontkins: Nah, just any old bread. *The grill blows up in Wontkins' face* Wilkins: Burgers aren't the same without Taystee Bread.
