That's Elaine Giftos playing the wife she was in a couple of Three's Company episodes and some great campy movies like "The Student Nurses" and "Angel". As for JIB I love their stuffed jalapenos.
That's right! The late '70s design was the best, but Jack In The Box got tired of it for that new design they introduced in 1980-81, which laset until 1986 or so. =)
in the 1960s, Jack In The Box had the best deal on Jumbo Fried Shrimp and Chicken baskets. Both on a bed of french fries. 3 giant Shrimp .59¢. 2 pieces fried chicken. .69¢. Fat boy's delight. Every night!
So Taco Town don't got hamburgers. But they sure do have a crunchy beef taco with nacho cheese, vegetables, and southwestern sauce, wrapped in a flour tortilla with refried beans, wrapped in a corn tortilla with Monterey Jack cheese... (BIG BREATH) ...wrapped in a deep-fried gordita shell with something called "guacamolito sauce", wrapped in a corn husk with pico de Gallo, wrapped in a Parisian crepe with eggs, gruyere cheese, merguez sausage, and Portobello mushrooms... (BIG BREATH) ...wrapped in a Chicago deep-dish meat lovers pizza, wrapped in a blueberry pancake, dipped in batter and deep-fried and served in a tote full of vegetarian chili. ...but they don't got a burger.
@@bubbythebear6891 Alright, since I'm on mobile, I can't send you a link, but just search for "binging with babish taco town" and the video should show up. Since the video is one of Babish's subscriber specials, he'll be talking quite a bit before getting started, though. On that note, Babish actually dedicated his channel to recreating food seen in movies and TV shows, so it might be something worth watching in general.
When I was looking for my first "real job" I stopped by Jack-in-the-Box. Jack didn't hire me. The next day I went down to that taco place (Taco Bell). They hired me. I made tacos for 1 1/2 years. Jack's loss.
Are you sure this is 1977? I thought the logo shown here wasn't put out until 1978. (I have a commercial from 1976 that shows the old-style sign; it's been having technical problems on CZcams so I need to re-upload it.)
I think it's the late actor Joseph Medalis, who I remember from the Kentucky Fried Movie, which was released in the same year that this commercial aired.
It can't be because the guy in the commerical is middle aged, whereas Dan was still in his early twenties. Sigh, I wish we had a "Jack in the Box" here in northern New Jersey.
3 years later...Jack gets destroyed, but don't worry he gets his revenge 14 years later afterwards.
I remember on buses there was a sign that says "Jack's Back"
holyshit this is getting worse
"J-J-Jack, J-J-Jack, J-J-Jack...Jack In The Box...Now you're cookin' Jack!" Always loved that jingle.

They should have went to Pup 'N Taco, they had everything, Tacos, Hot Dogs, Hamburgers, they were the best!
Agreed
That logo was from that era. It was much better than what they got now. But, I love that mascot, though! =D
I think the "mom" in the commercial played a high-paid call girl in an episode of "3's Company." LOL
Y'know that burger guy could have cooked you some omlette

Why dont you have one?

Steak Sandwich and Omelets? When did they have that?
Do you have Cat Food? Yes, they're in our Tacos.
Lol
Purina once owned Jack In The Box, so that explains why the tacos taste like cat food
@@kgoundan Hi, there, I don't know about one thing: How would you know what cat food tastes like?

Not really. That’s actually the guy from the Kentucky fried movie.

And then they changed to the box logo in the 1980s then ditched the clown head when they blew up the clown.

Hi eyeh8,
Definitely 1977. It's from a master tape, slated 10/19/77.

I Don't even think Mcdonald's had breakfast nationwide until 1979 or 1980?
