I don't take ads. To donate: www.paypal.me/fredflix There was nothing wrong with these TV ads at the time. But they wouldn't air in these "Oh, wait, I'm offended" days.
Wait what’s wrong with that ad? Like yeah I get it instant is not great but it doesn’t say the husband will beat her it isn’t inherently sexist unless you’re genuinely telling me that a woman making coffee is sexist.? Can someone please fill me in because I’m lost as to why it is supposed to be politically incorrect. EDIT: OK no if you meant the Maxwell one I get it now😅
That Flintstone Winston cigarette commercial makes me laugh. Back in grade school, in the 1960s, we’d sing, “Winston tastes bad, like the one I just had. No filter, no flavor, just wrapped up in old toilet paper.”
@DanielGonzalez-vj4dg After the tobacco companies could no longer advertise on TV or radio guess where all their advertising dollars went?.To my favroite sport, NASCAR!!!!.
@@PaulineOliviaHead-ok1bpBecause he had a very loving and devoted wife who loved him dearly and she showed it by making his coffee for him. If I was married, I would do it because I'm an old-fashioned feminine Christian woman. I'm not a feminist like you are.
@@scotttommasulo5512 Not to mention that he walks barefoot all day and lives in a world where everyone is a one-dimensional sitcom trope. Of course he is stressed and needs to relax sometimes.
Well Neii, that seems awesome! Here in America our coolaid has to share a space with the milk. Your lucky to have a fridge dedicated only to coolaid Note: Idk where I was going with that, I just wanted to add onto the joke.
Well, it's: 1.) Ads for sh*t that makes you fat & unhealthy, 2.) Ads for pills to help you get skinny & healthy, and 3.) Ads for attorneys to help you sue the pill-makers for bad side effects.
Remember the cartoon was when her husband had to work eight hours a day five times a week during the prime hours of the day… Or where the saying nine till five came from.
Yep, that gave me a good laugh, don't care if the politically correct got their nipples in a twist. My fiance saw it before I did and she even laughed pretty hard.
Love these commercials way better than todays,many jingles still stuck in my memory! Sing the frito bandito song to my grandkids also did to my kids its great!
I learned that in the 50s and 60s a family consists of a mother, father, Japanese boy and Japanese girl; man was dependent on the quality of coffee his wife makes to have a career; no culture was safe from mockery; a woman could make up to 7 xerox copies a minute; cigarettes had a nice taste apparently; and every kid needs to have a multi-use 7-stage war weapon. Take that communism.
Am I the only one that found it hysterical when Fred and Barney said, “ I hate to see the girls working this hard. Let’s go around back where we can’t see them”?
For me I have a weird sense of external nostalgia thinking about how my Mom must have saw these because for me it's like peering into another world she was a part of.
My mom is Mexican and I showed her the Frito Bandito commercial and we laughed together at it. Meanwhile, I bet non-Mexicans would be all offended on our behalf. That shit was funny.
Same thing with the song "Hello Kitty" by Avril Lavinge Asian people love it but.... Americans hate it and think it's "racist"??? Like no offense but Americans need to stay in their place sometimes.
Yea that's true. It's just the culture, I guess, of having everything a certain way and stopping at nothing to achieve it that Americans often have. It sometimes helps, but it also sometimes creates unneeded problems.
I still use “midget” to describe anything smaller than usual (for example a miniature candy or travel-size shampoo). I’ve also been known to use the word “retarded” to describe people or situations that prevent me from progressing through my day. Obviously, I don’t use them to describe little people, or to mock individuals with a developmental or physical handicap. Yea I’ve heard strangers gasp in disbelief…. But the world is becoming overly sterile and inhibited. I’m too old to change, it is what it is.
50 years ago I was 14 so I remember all these commercials. I can tell you my dad would never complain about mom's coffee, he knew he'd be making it from then on. They both worked full time jobs and shared household duties. Dad never saw it as helping out, he contributed to the mess so he should contribute to cleaning it. Plus my Dad was a great cook, actually had taught mom how to cook when they got married. I miss them both very much.
@@sehersfrooty Thanks, it's hard to believe that I grew up in the 60's where men doing household chores was considered beneath him. My Dad was something special. He rarely used spanking as punishment, preferring to take privileges away instead.
People are saying we're too sensitive today. Back then they couldn't even air a man dancing with his hips or saying the word "high". We always been a sensitive society.
Tanzanite800 that's not possible, they're always going to be sensitive people on either side of the political spectrum and they have just as much of a right to free speech as you and I.
Yeah unlike those stupid Grubhub commercials. All they are is just people eating and dancing and mentioning a app that is related to food that you can download. In these old ones, they told you why their product is better and why it’s good.
Know what you mean, saw a colgate ad for some new overpriced toothpaste but if they didnt flash their logo at the very end i could have sworn it was a tourism company trying to sell me on the idea of mountianeering
To this day there are woman who dont know how to change tires, but there is also men who dont know how. If you are never taught something, how can you learn.
That first Good Year commercial reminds me of my grandfather. Back in the 70s, he taught my mother how to change a tire and make rudimentary car repairs so she’d never have to rely on a man, especially strange, predatory ones out in the middle of nowhere.
Prior to the invention of Xerox, the only way to get 7 copies of something was to type each one out manually. So 7 copies a minute would have seemed astounding.
Man i miss these old commercials, i remember the majority of them especially growing up with my great grandparents we watched all the old shows along with the commercials. Great memories for sure.
The reason they stop putting them in the boxes is mainly because of the rise of the internet. Once advertisement companies realized that so did the products they were advertising
Some dumb ass kid probably choked on a toy and they're ignorant parents probably sued a company, which led to everyone stopping the "toy in cereal" thing
Because nobody is fun anymore!! These parents and their, "Cereal has too much sugar for my kids" attitudes, ....totally ruined it. Bring back the toys, the real sugar, and the artificial flavors! 😉
@@epicdave01 you're half right. Back when they put it in the bag with the cereal some kids choked on them. That's why they started putting them between the bag and the box
John Robenault I imagine there are at least one or two weirdos out there who would gladly jack off to something like that. Trust me when I say, I've seen some of the weirdest junk from members of my species.
At first I thought the Funny Face juice ad was gonna be something about being ableist towards mentally disabled people, and then my jaw hung open when I saw the orange and cherry flavors-
The Frito Bandito eraser for the top of your pencil was the hottest thing in third grade. Everyone had them. They came in Frito snack packs. Finding a snack pack without a hole in the cellophane and the eraser still there was the challenge! They sell for $40-$50 today.😂
@@sistersamich2075 yeah.the 50's were a different time everyone had to follow expectations society had on them mens must be hardworking and confident while women were housewives and they must have been perfect for their husband who was coming home from work,some people liked it that way but it's definitly for the better that you aren't forced to do all of that today
Really interesting to see these- these ads are about 10-20 years before my time (I was born in '79) born in the UK then moved to Australia with my parents in '83. Still enjoy seeing how life was back then though.
@@mikekokomomike Turns out that if you don't let black people into the universities, you won't have black people at NASA either. Incredible deductive skills, Holmes!
I remember getting my Frito Bandito pencil eraser that fit on a #2 pencil. This commercial for Fritos is slightly different because he originally singings: I'll take them from you and not I'll get them from you.
As a woman, the coffee commercial made me laugh, it was also kinda sweet! Aaah remember the days when a healthy relationship meant making acceptions for each other because you were in love? Yeah, me neither.
well let me introduce myself, i can change a flat tire & look good doing it. BUT, i would rather have a man do it for me, but only if he knew the difference between a flat tire and a wheel. 😉
@Gobrech just saying i could change a wheel if need be....but i guess having a good man by ones side, he would probably at least loosen the luggs for me
"The Flintstones" started out as a prime time nighttime show aimed at adults, which is why they were taking smoke breaks. Then Pebbles was born, so they started hawking Welch's grape juice. Yes, I'm old.
Sounds like the same thing with the Simpsons on "The Tracey Ulman Show". Except the Simpsons got worst after they got their own show! Lol. Its crazy seeing these things go on as we age in life. I used to watch the Flintstones all the time...
The woman was really upset that her husband didn't like her coffee. If I told my wife her coffee was terrible she'd say make your own damn coffee then.
there are three genders in this world: *man: can repair tyres* *woman: cannot repair tyres* *goodyear: causes tyre cannibalism* EDIT 23/05/2020: _i know that women can repair tyres nowadays but that doesn't mean men can't, where's goodyear when you need them_
Sorry Harvo but my Dad wouldn't hand me the keys to my car until I showed him that I could check and refill fluids, change a tire and put snow chains on. I'm a girl. ✌️♥️
@Zeek Banistor oh look how much of a boomer you are. First of all most of the millennials haven't money to buy a car nowadays. What did you expected ? Secondly, feminism isn't a bad thing. Ok there are some feminazis but this isn't the majority of the feminist movement. Maybe in your country women are equal to men something i doubt even in your place. But hey have you ever heard of Africa or India for example. Even in the civilised Canada, USA, Australia or Europe sexism exist. Sorry if i was a little aggressive, basically i was calm but hey...
It's unfortunate that people get so easily offended now, these are way more engaging and memorable than the average slop we have now, even if they have some "bad takes". Obviously i know that its not just about the jokes that makes these old ones good, the creativity too. I just wish we could have fun and creative commercials now without having to be so worried about being "incorrect"
I was amazed at seeing the Flintstones in a smoking ad. What a way of "using" children's favorite cartoon characters! P.S. I was always a fan of The Flintstones. 😉
If I told my wife that her coffee wasn't up to par, I'd receive third degree burns. I think I'd rather smoke the Winstons and chew the tobacco to burn from the inside.
50 years ago I was "of age" living on my own already a year and a half! Btw I smoked but, could never smoke Winston. That brand gave me a sour stomach. Wonder what was in those!
Amazing how in the 60s my friends and I played with toy guns all the time (army, police, and cowboys and Indians) and none of us grew up to be violent sociopaths. I’ll clue y’all, it’s not the toy guns that cause our modern problems.
@@emchristine7757 Good question. But I hear folks blaming violent games for causing violent people. I played with cap guns and other toy weapons all through my childhood in the 1960s and, as far as I know, none of my friends became violent criminals because of it. I don't have the answer but I wanted to share my experiences and observation.
@@sandycheeks9856 Negative. It is the collapse of the family unit, parents not being around, children not being disciplined and could also have something to do with abandoning God.
Imagine a time when an advertisement had a woman complain that her *deodorant* was preventing her from being hit on by her boss? *_How would she ever get ahead in this world?_* LOL
Some people posted comments about how nowadays the FEMOIDS use their lawyers to SUE a COMPANY just because the boss asked his subordinate out. Sometimes I wonder how they manage to be so unmoving without being hit by a car.
