Some new stuff finally, although that's more my fault for not getting at other parts of my backlog for five months. Ah well. This comes from a large lot of tapes I was recently loaned, a majority of which featuring Pokémon. A hell of a lot of Pokémon, almost 20 tapes worth of the show purely, among other things in said lot.
This first set of commercials comes from the first tape, and seems to be coming from near the end of Pokémon's syndicated run, going off of the September promos littered about. Aside from those, we've got snack ads, toys, the typical stuff. The most interesting stuff here is the "FOX Pause with Maranda" segments, which seem to focus on an event going on that features an Australian band performing at a Wyoming school. The Keebler "Escape the Color" promotion is neat too, if only for the advertised Game Boy Color prize and the animation.

I miss when commercials were wacky, overly optimistic and had catchy jingles. It was like mandatory back then. lol

This is getting close. This is FOX. But we really need more of the old recordings of FOX Family Channels and FOX Kids commercials from 1998, the same year 1999 and in 2000 as well as more of the shows. Like try to upload It's Itsy Bitsy Time, Storytime with Thomas, Pee Wee's Playhouse, and maybe The New Addams Family. And for FOX Kids, try full recordings of Power Playback O-T-O, MMPR:TM, T:APRM, Beetleborgs Metallix, and more this year right now.

A lollipop has a bubble coming out and there is a cookie inside of those flowers when they stopped growing and there are some chocolate chips in the sky and there are a lot of white milk pouring cans outside

Pokémon ended its syndicated run on September 3, 1999, including KCOP-TV (UPN 13) in Los Angeles.
