A collection of Kool-Aid commercials I made from the '50s to the '90s. They are creepy and retarded, but interesting. Sorry for the crappy quality. Kool-Aid commercials y Kool-Aid. All these videos were obtained from RU-vid...
Thanks for the compilation! That first 1950s one was indeed creepy ("You know it's pure and good!"; also, Kool-Aid Man was apparently one of Coily the Spring Sprite's minions back then). It's interesting, though, that those 2-quart paper packets seem to have risen in price less than I would have expected; 5¢ then; 17¢ last time I got some. The most cringe-worthy has gotta be that one where the execs went "Yeah, just throw in a bunch of crap kids like. Bugs Bunny, The Monkees, cowboys, UFOs, helicopters... You get the picture!"
I was born in 1984, and I completely forgot about the 90s kool-aid commercial inside the mall. When I heard the lyrics to the song, the wacky warehouse mall, subconsciously I remember watching and hearing those words when I was around 5 years old. I don't know how I remembered those lyrics, but something triggered my memory cells. This brings back great memories!
The last commercial, the Great Bluedini. I remember that kool aid. It started out as a green powder but when you added water, it turned into a blue liquid just like magic.
Thank you so much for this video, me and my mother were having an argument on wether the kool aid man started breaking through walls and saying oh yeah in the 70s or 90s and this helped me prove that it was in the 70s so I’m very grateful for you ❤️
"You know it's pure and good--it has the Parents magazine seal." Yeah ... here, take this packet of brightly colored chemicals and add water and sugar. Sounds wholesome to me!!
From Webster's Dictionary: par·o·dy noun \ˈper-ə-dē, ˈpa-rə-\ : a piece of writing, music, etc., that imitates the style of someone or something else in an amusing way : a bad or unfair example of something plural par·o·dies Family Guy parodied these commercials, man.
Gawd, The Monkees. When they made that commercial, Peter had bought himself out of the remaining time on his contract in 1968 and scrammed. The other guys weren't in any financial place to do that then, so they ended up in crappy ads like this, even after their show was cancelled. Monkees money made the movie Easy Rider, though, so bless 'em.
I still don't see the Kool-aid commercial I made a comment about to another 70s commercials video, the commercial I'd call "Kool-aid; Haunted House ". The kids in the commercial were running out of a haunted house and a guy dressed up like a vampire came out of it and said "Not so fast! I need something to quench my thirst. ". The kids said "Hey, Kool-aid!", and the Kool-aid pitcher busted through the gate and poured the man a glass of Kool-aid, and the man said "Beautiful. ", pronouncing the word in the manner of Vincent Price. (I could have sworn it was Vincent Price in that commercial, but I could be wrong. ) That commercial came out in either 1977 or early 1978, and I seem to be the only person who remembers seeing it on TV back then, because every time I see Kool-aid commercials on RU-vid, that particular one I mentioned pops into my mind. Too bad there's no video of it on RU-vid for me to see again.
It's funny how you can see all the "hip" things of the year in one commersial: Bugs Bunny, the monkees, rollerhockey, skateboarding and hanging at malls
@ThisIsLPG The best way to sum up the 90s is this: people ran out to get piercings and tattoos to be individuals just like everybody else. And everybody went to the mall. (We didn't really get online ordering until the late 90s, so the mall was the place to be)
Yes they try to make seem like a kids drink, but then agian at my store even people who don't have kids will by kool aid because its good. Koolaids one of my favorite things to drink in summer when its hot and I want something with lots of flavor, but very refreshing. Also, I like to make it for summer parties or when I go up to my lake house. I like how they make all the flavors and how they r independent company owned by themselves after all these years. Even though they made by kraft foods, they are still there own company, kraft just the ones that help them out. Im also amazed that this drink is still very popular after 74 years or more, and what gets me is how fast it flys off the shelves. Man, you can say that this drink was the mio of the 1950 -1970s.
LOL "You can give your youngsters a lot of pleasure with kool-aid!" I love how cheesy the songs are "big wide happy ear to ear kool aid smi-hii-hiile!" lmfao
@TootsiePopluver12 : I am old enough to remember when you could actually buy something with 5 cents...like a pack of gum, candy bar, popcicle etc. Keep in mind when that commercial was made minimum wage was probably about 65 cents per hour and a new car starting at about $1600
It's interesting how the Kool-Aid commercial in the 1950s was suppose to appeal to parents (Parent's magazine seal of approval, "pure", etc.) but the one in the 1990s appealed completely to kids. Shows how much advertising has changed.
