These commercials aired on Nick on August 7th, 1993
1. Snick Intro
2. NY1 News Promo
3. Promo for "Disney's Young Musicians Symphony Orchestra" on The Disney Channel
4. Froot Loops
5. Gushers
6. M&M's
7. Snick Commercial Bumpers
8. TV Spot for "Surf Ninjas" (Never saw this one, even though my 9 year old self was certainly the primary target demo. I guess I was all Ninja'd out by '93)
9. Little Caesars
10. Super Mario All-Stars for SNES (I rented this at the time to play the mythical "Lost Levels" but didn't actually own it until buying it used at Funcoland in the late 90's. While I appreciate the concept, I could never really get into the updated graphics. I'm an 8-bit purist I guess. Also, Nintendo really should have released "Lost Levels" on NES ca. 1991 using the box art seen at 4:23)
11. Life Magazine
12. Life Magazine
13. Snick Commercial Bumpers
14. Promo for "Weinerville"

17. Promo for "Are You Afraid Of The Dark"
18. Nick Station ID
19. Snick Commercial Bumper
20. Promo for "The Partridge Family"
21. Yikes! (I'll admit it was fun to own wacky pencils in fluorescent 90's colors...at first...but I remember the overall quality of these were pretty terrible once the novelty wore off, especially the ones with the oddly shaped bumpy erasers. I'll take a plain boring Dixon Ticonderoga No 2 pencil any day of the week)
22. McDonald's
23. TV Spot for "Surf Ninjas"
24. Bubble Tape
25. Promo for "Snickiversary" (The first Snick broadcast was on 8/15/92)
26. Snick Commercial Bumpers

37. Promo for "Weinerville"

Super Mario All Stars was perfect for someone like me who had graduated to 16 Bit, and never got to own the original 8-Bit Mario 3 back in the day.

I like they also did the same for the Ninja Gaiden Trilogy: even though I will always prefer the 8-Bit NES versions.

Omfg....I haven't heard that name or even thought about that store for over 25 years! We used to buy and sell our NES and SNES games there. If I remember correctly, when they bought games from us, the employees were allowed to offer you a price rather than there being a set price they would pay you. I vaguely remember one girl who worked there that would offer us something ridiculous like $0.50 a game. Then there was another guy who would offer us very fair prices, like $5+ per game, depending on what it was, the condition of the game, etc.

Funcoland was one of my favorite places to buy video games during that time. I remember walking in and grabbing their "newspaper" showing the list of games and how much they were. I still have my copy for Secret of Mana that I bought for only $45 back in 1999 and Wild Guns (cart only) for $5. You look at those prices now and it's ludicrous!

When I see that this block of commercials were almost 30 years to the day, it really blows my mind at how fast time flies; it only feels like it was yesterday when I was watching SNICK on the weekends.

Froot Loops- The voice of the Milton Mole character in this commercial reminds me of the voice of Mr Woodchuck, Dave Courier’s ventriloquist dummy in the sitcom, “Full House”. Gushers- The looks on the kids’ faces after eating the Gushers are pure nightmare fuel. Little Caesars- A round of pure nightmare fuel in this commercial with the creepy looking puppets, especially the teacher character.

The voice was Frank Welker, one of the living legends of voice acting.

The way this channel present these commercials with specific date they were recorded attached to them is invaluable for historians and people being nostalgic. It presents the commercials in context of when they were shown on TV, sometimes with bumpers of the TV shows it's aired in included, with no ambiguity or errors. So many commercial compilations on youtube are all over the place, sometimes 10+ years apart like a mixing a late 70s commercial mixed in with an early 90s commercial a video called 1980s commercials. This however is great. Thank you.

@Silvergun_Raven 11 ай бұрын

I completely agree! This channel has been my only go-to for commercials from the 70's-90's since 2012 (when I first came across it).

My wife threw away my old Eastpak backpack. It was still in terrific shape, and they were made very well. That thing would have outlived me. Yes I'm still sore about it.

So many early 90’s commercials with kids wearing their baseball caps backwards. Growing up in that era I knew no one who actually did that. It would’ve made you look like you fell for that corporate perception of what “cool” was.

@darklordzagato 11 ай бұрын

The corporate perception of what we were like in the 90s was always so dumb and condescending. I don't see how they really expected to sell anything while basically calling their target audience a bunch of whiny dirtbag kids.

@Silvergun_Raven 11 ай бұрын

Nobody in my town wore hats backwards either. I always thought it was a "west coast" thing, but I have friends out there who say that wasn't a fad there either haha!

@Fribee83 11 ай бұрын

It's so weird, watching the Partridge Family in '93 felt like this ancient show as a kid but it was only a 20 year gap. It'd be like watching Nick now and seeing a promo for Arrested Development.

@yusakug 11 ай бұрын

Rob Schneider considers Surf Ninjas one of the worst films he’s appeared in, and compares it to an actor taking a role in porn early in their career. Considering some of the films he’s been in, that’s saying something. Honestly, I would rather watch Surf Ninjas over Rob’s Deuce Bigalow sequel.

lol this was before cartoon network really aired their own programming so all they had to offer for six flags was Looney tunes. Then a commercial comes on of Nick going like "Hey we got Looney tunes." Surprised they even bothered to allude to bosko yikes. Shoutouts to tan m&m's.

I remember always seeing a commercial advertising Cartoon Network, but it wasn't available in my area unless I had a dish, but it finally was local in the Summer of 1999, when I started watching Dexter's Laboratory, Cow & Chicken, Johnny Bravo, Powerpuff Girls, and Toonami (which, opened the anime gate for me).

Surf Ninjas was a downgrade for Rob Schneider after appereing in Home Alone 2. I admit I enjoyed Super Mario All Stars a lot more than Super Mario World. What's the difference between Looney Tunes on Nick and the Bug and Tweety show on the ABC? DId ABC have sole rights to Tweety Bird cartoons?

Did anyone else see the boom mic in that McDonald’s scavenger hunt commercial? Check it out while they’re sitting on the steps

@80sCommercialVault 10 ай бұрын

Boom mics were not something they were concerned with when producing commercials that would air on TV back then as long as they were outside of the "safe area" seen on most viewfinders. CRT TV's back then had overscan which cut off 5-10% of the picture on all sides en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Overscan What you're looking at there was well outside of the safe area and you never would have seen it on a CRT.

@knf4451 3 ай бұрын

@@80sCommercialVault VERY interesting! That fun fact kinda reminds me of some wide-screen versions of Grease that show off-camera action that I didn't notice in the original cut due to aspect ratio differences, is that kinda what you're talking about?

@80sCommercialVault 3 ай бұрын

Not really, the 4x3 aspect ratio of TV's back then matched what was being shot on 35mm film, but the nature of Tube TV's meant that anything displayed on it would have the edges of the picture cut off. This was something that people shooting for TV were aware of and camera viewfinders have marked "safe areas" that would let the operator know what was in or out of frame. The issue is that when these recordings are captured and shown on modern displays without overscan, things like boom mics and other stuff that would not have been seen on an old CRT are now visible. IMO things like this aren't really "bloopers" as nobody watching it back then could even see it.
