  • These commercials aired on MTV in October of 1990
    1. MTV Radio Station Contest (I like how they have the prominent disclaimer that you have to actually meet FCC regulations)
    2. Abadox for NES
    3. Tampax Compak
    4. Miller Genuine Draft Cold-Filtered
    5. 3 Musketeers (This week on "Three Jerks Eating Candy Bars"...)
    6. VO5 Hot Oil Treatment
    7. Promo for "Club MTV"
    8. Promo for "1/2 Hour Comedy Hour" (Based on the clip here I guess it's a good thing this show wasn't actually an hour long)
    9. Oxy Night Watch
    10. Code West
    11. The Stephen King Library (That Demon on the cover of "The Stand" has always creeped me out)
    12. MTV Station ID
    13. "Turn It Up" Promotional Considerations
    14. Promo for "The Hot Seat"
    15. Fathom Cologne (This is one of those ads that seems fake, like it was created to play on a TV in the background of "Demolition Man" or "Robocop". But it's real)
    16. Levi's 501
    17. Heartthrob (LOL!)
    18. Juicy Fruit
    19. Pantene
    20. Vote PSA (With Iggy Pop)
    21. Promo for "MTV Video World Series"
    22. TV Spot for "Night Of The Living Dead" (I haven't seen this in a while but I remember not liking it much compared to the original)
    23. Sega Genesis
    24. Time Life Mysteries Of The Unknown (Very cool ad)
    25. Splatterhouse for Turbo Grafx 16 (Classic horror themed sidescroller)
    26. Guitar Rock (LOL Risky Business much? And "Maggie May" by Rod Stewart is "guitar rock"?)
    27. Miller Lite Halloween Haunt Contest (RIP Clarence Clemons. This is seriously one of the coolest things I've ever posted! I kind of doubt that the real party could have lived up to this ad)
    28. MTV Station ID
    29. ICS (I will only learn TV/VCR repair from Sally Struthers!)
    30. Partnership for a Drug Free America PSA
    31. Musicians For Life PSA (With Julie Brown)
    32. MTV Promo
    33. Art Instruction Schools
    34. Promo for "Dobie Gillis" (Tuesday Weld was such a hottie)
    35. Crazy Calls (Only 14.95 for a joke tape you'll never actually listen to)
    36. DeVry
    37. Soloflex
    38. MTV News
    39. MTV Station ID
    40. The Art Institutes
    41. Time Life Treasury Of Christmas (Happy Hallowchristmas! With Willard Scott. These compilations always have some modern crap thrown in that spoils the vintage pre-60s vibe. I'm looking right at YOU Dolly Parton)
    42. Promo for "Totally Pauly" (Hmm didn't know Pauly Shore was on MTV before "Encino Man". Now I know who to blame)
    43. Playboy Magazine
    44. Career Institutes Of America
    45. Those Fabulous '70s
    46. Musicians For Life PSA (With Al B. Sure. I think Bert from "Sesame Street" could have sued him for copying his trademark brow)
    47. MTV Station ID

    The BEST 90's commercial YET!!!!

  • @DanZero77
    @DanZero77 Před 6 lety +5

    Perfect piece of MTV in 1990. The video games, the commercials for all the schools, and the music.

  • @Danimal1177

    The odds are really good that I watched these commercials as they were being played. October of 1990 I was in the seventh grade and I watched MTV from the moment I got home after school!

  • @Farzee49
    @Farzee49 Před 6 lety +4

    I was 15 in 1990 so I watched a TON of MTV so this collection really takes me back!
    26:23 I really love the Time Life Treasury Of Christmas commercial! Every year us kids would sing along to the songs advertised on the commercial every time it came on! So funny that Dolly Parton non-classic snuck on this version of the collection. I hope you post the original version (that played incessantly back in the day) during your Christmas uploads.
    29:42 I must say that Al B. Sure! was my #1 teen crush, at that time, and I kinda love this PSA with him and his monobrow **sigh** Loved him...

    I love your channel. You truly take me back. I really hope you have Christmas commercials during the 90’s and all. That’ll take me more back lol

    • @80sCommercialVault

      I do a daily marathon of Christmas commercials every December. Last year I had 25 videos. I don't think I'm going to have quite as many this year, but I already have some stuff lined up.

    Extremely fascinating to see what MTV was like post-80's, pre-Grunge, not even sure if other MTV uploads have tapped into those times until just now!
    Kinda interesting to see how many commercials that might as well be aimed at kids (for example, toyetic board games) have popped up around this time and how they're in the mix with the other more typical MTV-audience-targetted commercials, even spots for horror movies. I like the expressiveness and animation of the ID too, tbh.

    I miss those Time Life books commercials

  • @camelspiderattack4161
    @camelspiderattack4161 Před 6 lety +5

    oh shit, i remember those time-life mysteries of the unknown books; my friend's mom had them and we spent hours freaking ourselves out. great times

  • @yusakug
    @yusakug Před 6 lety +3

    Wow, Splatterhouse. Never knew the game even had a commercial. The Turbografx 16 is one of the more criminally underrated systems of the past 20 years or so.

  • @justjameson4301
    @justjameson4301 Před 2 lety +1

    That first one is my favorite

  • @tanquantwal

    I remember those art test. I submitted one and received a grade of 80%. Would love to have those crazy calls.

    More information about the MTV radio station contest -
    www.apnewsarchive.com/1990/California-Woman-Wins-Georgia-Radio-Station-in-MTV-Contest/id-852175d89943d4f1fc9fb1d4b093f9bb
    Funny enough, the prize went to a college radio DJ in California. The station was a low powered country radio AM format in Thomasville, GA.

    • @80sCommercialVault
      @80sCommercialVault  Před 6 lety +4

      From what info I've found she did not actually take or use the station and just took the prize money

    • @MichaelMangi
      @MichaelMangi Před 6 lety +2

      I'm not surprised. This struck me as one of those prizes where the winner would more likely take a cash equivalent if it was offered.

  • @DJDizzyStorms
    @DJDizzyStorms Před 6 lety +4

    Back when MTV , Vh1, & BET were all about REAL music. Its a shame that you don't see that anymore.

  • @tdrewman

    Did anyone win the Radio Station ?

    • @80sCommercialVault
      @80sCommercialVault  Před 6 lety +9

      From what info I could find online, the station they were giving away was a rundown AM station in Georgia where the transmitter barely worked and the winner of the contest wisely just took the 10,000 dollars. I'm sure that Billy Idol was disappointed, though.

    The music in that MGD commercial is absolutely mental. Wonder who wrote that.

    Those post cards through the mail has always been a scam, I never ever got a reply as a kid, now as an adult, I now know that these sweepstakes receive tens of thousands of post cards and probably throw 90% of them in the trash without even opening them.

    • @80sCommercialVault
      @80sCommercialVault  Před 6 lety +6

      I don't get how anything about that is a "scam". They only have to select one of the entry postcards at random. What else would they do with the losing entries besides throw them away? And why would you expect them to reply to you that you lost a contest? Though a lot of these MTV contests had sketchy prizes, people actually DID win them.

    • @jasonx1580
      @jasonx1580 Před 6 lety +3

      You think that people have to OPEN post cards??

    • @jason4275
      @jason4275 Před 6 lety +2

      I know that now as an adult, that they pick one card and throw away the rest, but as a 10 year old kid, I always thought I would of got some kind of reply, because at that time in the 90's when you wrote someone you usually get a response in the mail or phone.

    I have heard of giving Iggy Pop a few spins on my record player but this is ridiculous!

    • @Farzee49

    Night or The Living Dead movies, why has the zombie theme been so prevalent in the present decade (2009-2019) ? All because of The Walking Dead TV series? There has been so many other TV and movies made on the zombie theme it's got people thinking that it will happen for real !

    • @80sCommercialVault
      @80sCommercialVault  Před 5 lety +3

      "28 Days Later" (2002), "Dawn Of The Dead" (2004) and "Land Of The Dead" (2005) kicked off the current zombie craze IMO, along with a lot of video games like Dead Rising, Resident Evil etc. "The Walking Dead" just turned it into a mainstream TV thing.

    Ah, old MTV and their (at the time) edgy, irreverent craziness. I feel like watching an episode of Beavis & Butthead...
    And M.C. Hammer was taking over the fucking world back then, too. I remember that...NOT. No thanks to that goddawful cartoon...And hey, I would actually read a Playboy mag that I've hoarded for the past 20 years. Fuckin' lit 90's chicks, yo.

  • @yusakug
    @yusakug Před 6 lety +3

    That Night of the Living Dead remake is one of the most pointless remakes ever. The same director helps make the same movie in color, just to prove that the movie doesn't work as well in color. Thanks, Hollywood!

    • @80sCommercialVault
      @80sCommercialVault  Před 6 lety +2

      Tom Savini actually directed the remake under George A. Romero's supervision. Romero got no residuals from the original because of a screw up in the credits that rendered it public domain, and was worried about someone else making an "unauthorized" remake...so I can kind of see why he thought it was worth remaking for that aspect alone. At least it's not as bad as what he did for the "30th Anniversary Edition" DVD of NOTLD: czcams.com/video/2fq8SjkCcWo/video.html

    • @TTrigg
      @TTrigg Před 6 lety +2

      The CGI animated remake is even worse

  • @Silvergun_Raven
    @Silvergun_Raven Před 6 lety +3

    Even though the original Night of the Living Dead is a million times better than the remake, I still enjoy it to this day.

    • @80sCommercialVault
      @80sCommercialVault  Před 6 lety +2

      The original or the remake? I don't think the remake is BAD but it certainly isn't better than the original. That movie just has a strange tone that can't be replicated. The parts where they watch the news segments on TV in particular are what make it a classic to me: czcams.com/video/4AdWJalP1vo/video.html
