McDonald's Commercials - 1976 to 1977 Collection 

It's weird how there used to be so many different characters and now a days we don't even see Ronald any more.

My Favorite Classic McDonald's Commercials In My Childhood Days.

It's amazing how self reliant these early commericals were. Original characters doing their thing without some movie or TV tie in.

I remember playing in the McDonalds playground and my favorite thing was going in the bigmac police character until i got stuck in it. These old commercials are the best!

Back when Hollywood actually had imagination and everything was original and not a remake

Who else is watching these clips before working a shift at McDonald’s? I can’t be the only one.

Ahhh the good old days with no auto tune rap jingles

0:45 Ronald McDonald: Hamburglar, what are you doing in jail? Hamburglar: (Mumbling ) Captain Crock: He says he capture himself to get the reward! Ronald McDonald: WHAT!? 😲

It always begins with a film countdown.

As someone else mentioned a while back. I haven't seen Ronald or any of the other McDonalds characters in years. Always loved (tall) Hamburgaler & what exactly was Grimace supposed to be. Lastly I loved getting McDonalds gift certificates for Christmases & birthdays as a kid.

😣 no cookies anymore

5:50 He's Mary Poppins Ya'll!

In today's world, Ronald is going to say, "Ran Ran Ru".

1977 8:21 1977 Amusement Park 8:52 1977 Car Ride (Japan) 9:24 1977 The Great Cheeseburger Race 9:55 1977 Shamrock Shakes 10:26 1977 Elevator

Those commercials classic helped in making mcdonalds what it is today a great place to eat with Mcdonald land

I was born in the late 80s but these commercials are interesting. I don't remember Captain crook, Mayor McCheese or the French fry goblins.

You dont see McDonald's promotions in commercials like these anymore❤ i miss seeing them

4:03 HE DABBED

These were Happier times I’m glad I grew up with these McDonald Characters in the 80’s and 90’s kids nowadays won’t ever know what it was like being a kid and using imagination. Life was better without technology

Legends say that cheese burgers used during these commercials are not decomposed yet!

1976 0:00 1976 Cowboy Story 1:08 1976 The Story of Captain Crook 2:16 1976 Cookie Machine 3:16 1976 Dinner Gong 4:17 1976 Grimace Tells Time 5:17 1976 Getting There in Time 6:18 1976 The Gobblins are Coming 6:48 1976 Zoo Trip 7:21 1976 Santa Grimace

5:16 he got the hiccups

I love the hamburglers old design

4:00 Ronald's sassy face

50 cent gift certificates. That's when the small hamburgers were $0.25

does anyone else recall a commercial where Ronald climbs a tree to escape the fry guys, then, gobblins? I seem to remember a whole horde of them after him. memories are tricky things.

Ronald: Put it back professor.

"The Hamburgler" Robble-Robble- Robble-Robble 😂😂🥰

The getting there in time one...ronald looks evil as hell...I don't remember the captain or the professor but I wasn't born until '76.

That gong one was a pretty weak idea - not sure how it takes a professor to 'invent' a dinner gong - but some of them have a quirky charm to them

That old Hamburglar was terrifying.

2:39 NO!!! There shall be no spilling of blood today!

King Moody , "Shtarker" from "Get Smart" as Ronald.

Burger King is showing the old, "Magical Burger King," in their commercials, why can't McDonald's bring back Ronald?

we all float down here......... YOU'LL FLOAT TOO

I remember getting those gift certificates!

Is it my imagination or is Grimace's voice the same one used for Dynomutt!?

Anyone remember their cheese Danish? Used to love those.

to be COMPLETELY honest i did do and will really really LOVE mcdonald's

Aww, they changed the Mcdonaldland jingle, oh well, probably some HR Pufnstuf shenanigans.

at 4:02 the professor dabs

Honestly growing up in the UK in the 90s these characters were kind of weird. You never saw them in TV adverts when I was a kid from what I remember - most of the adverts aimed at kids were about happy meal toys. But the restaurants were plastered with their images with zero context.

The thumbnail looks like that thing saw itself in a mirror and is about to pass out

I could swear ed wynn did the voice of mayor mccheese maybe sheriff big mac too?? Likke jim backus did capt crunch voice

I wonder how Ronald's appearance in Issaquah went ?

DANG ITS TOO LOUD!!! 4:07

Watching commercials to watch commercials 🤦

4:00 gong

I didn’t know they had Japanese McDonalds commercial

Whos americas favorite clown? Ronald Mcdonald ❤❤❤ in Mcdonald land my favorite jingles

8:53

I really don't like it, but I remember...

Boy, you can see why they sold garbage junk food to the kiddies so brilliantly - if not insidiously. We're still reconciling the generational obesity rates to this day.

I just don’t get it, if officer Big Mac and mayor mc cheese are burgers, why are the kids not eating them instead the baby burgers they’re eating? (Question of my mind)

He's stealing the hamburgers! WHY YOU LITTLE.........................

The only thing more creepy woulda been John Wayne Gacy as their mascot.

Oh brother! A Japanese McDonald's commercial! 🏯🏯🏯🏯🏯 🗾🗾🗾🗾🗾 🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵🇯🇵 🍔🍔🍔🍔🍔 😆😆😆😆😆

this is a nightmare

5:12

IM PHOBIA AT CLAON

i'm scary

I forgot the name of the pirate guy

"this isn't McDonalds.. this isn't McDonalds.. this isn't McDonalds.. Ah.... this is where I get off..................." Anyone AT ALL get this.................... smh disgusting.

Is it illegal to want to eat the Mayor?

Why a clown? No wonder my generation hates clowns.
