Was 1988 Your Favorite Year? - Retro Commercials Vol 414 

Me too, bad. What great and much simpler times

Same here, I was 18 that year. Probably one of the happiest years of my life.

im 28 now, and its safe to say, i remember the late late 90s and early early 2000s like yesterday. Yall had it best. Better times to live, and so much simpler and funner.

@@DANNY10MADRID We had awesome bands coming out also like Alice in Chains, Soundgarden, Pearl Jam, Nirvana. R&B was also exploding around that time as well. Tribe Called Quest was my fave

@@oceanblue5794 Tribe is a classic. Love their kind of music. Nirvana is a hit, and always will be. Great times.

Ditto

I knew it!!!!

Zeus

Rosanna Arquette too

That niqqa deebo

No holds barred.. 80's kids knew him first as zeus. He wasnt deebo for a few years after this.

That’s what I thought!

Yes

I was trying to figure out who she was. Thank you Alex

Yeah it was. Strange because she was at the peak of her career. Unlike the movie stars of today celebrities of the 1980’s rarely endorsed products in the U.S. I wonder if it was for a foreign market. Commercials using mainstream American stars were pretty common practice in Asia at the time.

Michael J Fox and Joe Piscopo were doing Pepsi and Bud Light commercials at the height of their careers back then as well. You could say, Rosanna was more well known for being a muse. Just ask Toto and Peter Gabriel.

You are born in 1976 so this means that your are a later generation Xer

Same !

I was 7 at the time, and at least in my school LA Gear was just not that popular when parents found out they did not hold up so well.

I was 13 and used to wear one blue Chuck and one red Chuck lol. Skater style

The 90s has always been around since really. It was the stepping stone to what we have today in terms of tech.

@@DANNY10MADRID precisely

@HUB GOBLIN I have always told people. The simple fact we awe about the 90s for having better shows, movies, etc, because today people just dont pay as much attention, and appreciate tv like we did in the 90s, because we had no other choice. It's kind of like wrestling. The mid 90s was argubaly the worst time for the WWF with horrible gimmicks, and story lines which were pretty cringey, but still got over because people had no choice to watch and enjoy and not complain unlike today we have so much to pick from, hence why because no one cares about tv, and only stream content, or youtube, social media etc. Imagine being introvert in the 80s, or 90s.. it would be hell without the internet to express your self compared to today being so so easy.

Nothing compared to "Tik Tok" Kids were Actually OUTSIDE not sucking up all the WiFi they can get This is Gold and Creative ... today is over saturated with lame influences

@@nelsonumama3632 u got a point

It sure was! I loved that coffee maker so much. I had a few KF40s over the years. My favorite one was a deep red.

Good.

Sadly we missed out on the merch, and home computer games Count Duckula had in the UK

I think I still have an old Count Duckula comic book that my dad had gotten me. It had a Danger Mouse comic on the back inside cover. That's a good memory :)

Wow.

I Knew it! (RIP) Mr. Perry!

I'm a huge fan of his son Jungle Jack Perry in AEW, and it's even cooler now that he comes out to the song Tarzan Boy!!, it's truly sad his father never got to see him shine his biggest, and brightest.

He just posted an 86er! It had some great stuff!

Mine too.

@@thrashpondopons2776 thx, I'll check it out!

His first staring role as "The Pusher"

Yes please especially if it’s from 1984

We'll see.

I turned 21! Now I really feel old!

@@thrashpondopons2776 LOL its all good I bet you can remember a lot of good stuff from the 80s as it was all happening though 😃👍🏽

@@BatmanPops Well... parts of it! there are some large gaps, particularly it in the late 80's! (so it must have been a good decade!)

Debo at 1:09 too.

I was just about to point out Luke Perry in the Mars Bar commercial but I checked the comments first! 😊

He was a big hit in 1988, and 89. He took part of summerslam with Hulk Hogan

@@DANNY10MADRID Speaking of wrestling his son Jungle Boy aka Jungle Jack Perry in AEW is awesome coming out to his new theme song Tarzan Boy, and he got a really nice win last night over Dax Harwood.

Thought it was Rosanna Arquette

Yeah that’s why Amazon Prime is clutch

Wow.

Totally looks like him!

It's gotta be. Two years later he was handing out cigarettes to kids in the Ninja Turtles movie!

whoa and at 4:20. I see what you did there, @davesarchives

I guess the title, commercials from 1988 was not a giveaway

True.

@@Ijustinsultedyou yeah, but the Nick At Nite lineup made sure you knew.

Nick really did go downhill in the 00's, but the yep the mid 80's - mid 90's really where their golden years.

In 2000 and 2001 i was 7, and 8, and i loved nick at night. loved watching the repeat of full house, afraid of the dark, and many shows also that were classics. Never would i imagine a childhood special like spongebob to still exist today, and boy does it.. beyond its due date.

I loved it when Nick at Nite played the old SNLs, Cheers, etc.

I loved Nick at Nite: Donna Reed, Mr. Ed, Car 54!

What.

You have absolutely zero memory of it. That year most likely sucked for you. You spent all of it in diapers going to the bathroom on yourself. You spent all of that year needing to be spoonfed by someone. And you spent all of that year not being able to formulate a sentence, let alone speak it

Me too.

Did you come out that year

Wow.

Same

Me too. It’s so bad now.

I do.

If you know then why did you ask ? GEDs are still attainable

@@Ijustinsultedyou maybe u need to get urs if u cant recognize sarcasm

@@ModService it’s yours not urs. We all know who needs a GED and who does not.

Oooooh.

They had them in your country ?

Why ?.

Those are two of the most irrelevant examples of why a year would be good or not.

Hmmmm.

Very well said👏❤❤❤❤👍

Of course.

So was millions and millions of other people

If you know then why did you say something ? IQs are a thing of the past

@@Ijustinsultedyou Just a joke. I knew it was him
