I haven't seen these commercials since the 1970s and remember them. In the early 1970s our mothers cooked dinner at home and going out to eat was a real treat.
Remember when Ronald McDonald came to your neighborhood McDonalds? And the restaurant was jam packed with all the local kids carrying signs and balloons welcoming him and waiting anxiously to see him in person? Me neither.
@Veronica A. When I was a kid, my friend's family used to invite me to McDonald's. After eating, they'd all bring their boxes of cookies home and frost them with homemade icing. They were careful to frost the different parts of Ronald's face with different colored icing.
McDonald's advertising partners were successfully sued by the originators of the HR Pufnstuf childens show for copyright infringement involving these commercials back in the early 70's
I hope you find the McDonald's Christmas commercial about the ruby-red bracelet-cups; they were like the halloween reflector cups but were a beautiful candy-apple/ruby red. I wanted them as a kid more than almost anything but my parents wouldn't get them. The commercial came out at the same time these were made.
As they're walking deeper and deeper into the woods of McDonald'sland... Billy: Gee, Ronald, I'm getting scared. Ronald: Why are you scared? I'm the one who has to walk out of McDonald'sland alone
I grew up on Fraggle Rock, Popples & Shelly Duvalls Fairy Tail Theatre which terrified me. I am now an opiate addict. Not sure if the two are connected, but it sure feels like it 😆
"Hey man, wanna drop acid and go to McDonald's?" "Nah, I'm good. I just watched some commercials that gave the exact same experience." -Probably some people in the 70s

The announcer for this would have to had been Len Maxwell. Don't know much about him but he also did some narrations for Sesame Street. Here's one. ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-jQ54XXlEotw.html
I lived the first 9 years of my life in the 70s and it was! America didn't start getting smart, complex, rude, litigious and cynical until the 90s. But part of me does long for the 70s and 80s because it was a simpler time.
The last commercial is false advertising! When I was a kid, and Ronald McDonald was going to make an appearance at my local McDonalds, I EXPECTED to get the REAL Ronald from the commercials---not some "local yokel" impostor with a southern accent (I grew up in the south)! I guess they thought kids weren't smart enough to know the difference, but I did, and I felt CHEATED!
What bothers me about the burgers being alive with faces is that they were once living cows with faces 🐮 so are the burgers reincarnated or would it be like a caterpillar turning into a moth 🙈😳
@@niceice3998 im still getting into mcdonalds lore so bare with me lol. all plants dont grow burgers tho right ? because in one ad ronald joked that the hamburglar wished everything he touched would turn into burgers and when he was imagining it, he touched a fruit on a tree and then that turned into a hamburger.
McDonald's land vs SpongeBob. Capt. Crook = Pirate on SpongeBob Officer Big Mac = Mr. Crabs Hamburgler = Plankton Grimace = Patrick The Professor = Sandy Cheeks The yellow thing who is a real square = Ronald = SpongeBob Nematodes = Goblins or Fry Guys = Jellyfish Mayor McCheese aka H.R. Pufnstuf should sue.
Lmao you wouldnt be able to make commercials like this anymore. They would accuse Ronald of promoting bullying for tricking Captain Crook with that apple pie map. Then they would call him racist for eating with a bl@ck kid.
