There was nothing wrong with these TV ads at the time. But they wouldn't air in these "Oh, wait, I'm offended" days.

Father, Mother, Japanese Boy, Japanese Girl Y’know, the usual family members.

I pay YouTube premium to not see ads, so I can watch 15 mins of ads

The irony is what's on television and movies today would have been considered too sexual, too violent and too morbid back then.

"Instant coffee is better than fresh brewed coffee" Said no one ever.

A tire in a tire? Why did we stop doing that?

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.”

I like that the husband was honest about his wife’s coffee and she listened, fixed it and he was appreciative and loving. So wholesome.

Adult swim should just play these at midnight without context and see people’s reactions

"I sure hate to see em workin so hard.." "Yeah, me too....let's go around back where we can't see em." 💀

Holy shit, that toy gun kicked ass! I'm sure it didn't work nearly as well as advertised, but that looked like one of the coolest toys ever.

Chinese Cherry has such a way with words.

“Carol your coffee sucks” dude was just straight up

I'm Japanese and I can confirm we still have our portable fridges that only hold coolaid, and yes, they're still caried by two men

Fred Flinstone smoking a cigarette is crazy
-
TV commercials that don’t make me hate myself. What a concept!
-
Now the only commercials we see are for prescription drugs.
-
The most offensive thing in this was the implication that instant coffee doesn't taste like ass.
-
The 1950s coffee ads are the most hilarious to me
-
Is it weird to feel nostalgic for commercials that are older than I am?
