Okay
Sure can do
Ok chain

Yup, the characters and music itself at 3:32 are indeed in Lazy Town style. The language they're speaking is Icelandic, where Lazy Town is from. The characters in that commercial are the original puppets made to promote the plays. They're more similar to the character designs in the plays Áfram Latibær! (Go LazyTown!) and Glanni Glæpur í Latabæ (Robbie Rotten in LazyTown) that the show was based off of
In this specific commercial they're not promoting a grocery store, rather they're promoting Icelandic produce. The bit at 3:53 says "Icelandic vegetables give power! Icelandic Gardening"
wow
It's such a trip watching clips from the Icelandic show. It's like being thrown into an alternate reality. Still a pretty fun show no matter the language.
Cursed town
Which character is the meth dealer looking puppet meant to be?
It's always fun to see this kind of stuff randomly outside the Lazy Town fandom
I have this reoccurring dream that Chadtronic is my English teacher no joke. The weirdest part to me is the fact that I don't question it at all in the dream. Its like I have known him on a personal level for years.
Please remember to take your meds for your schizophrenia and stay safe.

This was worth reading.
Thanks for sharing that.
Dreams really do be like that sometimes.
Your dreams must be amazing.
The lorax commercial is even more cursed when you realise they are doing exactly one of the things the movie criticises.
its not even like its an electric car or a hybrid. Theyre still burning fuel and making air pollutants.
This ☝️☝️ It grinds my gears how blindly they miss the point of the Lorax with this marketing bs. The fact that they roped Danny Devito into it is just icing on the cursed cake.
@Spamton and Pauline Fan Est 2003 true
It was even marketing a Mazda CX-5 which is a crossover SUV.
It's like Christmas Story. "Marketing is bad. Now let me put my obnoxious face to sell junk."
It's history time Chad!
One of the creators of Chuck E Cheese pizza, Robert Brock, wasn't happy with how the company was growing and evolving so he was let go/left the company and formed his own, ShowBiz Pizza. His goal was to regularly evolve and grow and evolve the companies' technology as it grew.
Show Biz grew so large and influential, that by 1984 Chuck E Cheese was filing for bankruptcy, so Show Biz immediately bought them and merged the two companies.
By 1989 the company went public, and complexity of the animatronic characters became too expensive to maintain. They wanted to find a way to replace them with a cheaper alternative. The first thing they did was fire the creator of the animatronics. who unfortunately held the rights to the ShowBiz "Rock-afire Explosion" character, and took them with him when he left.
Because of this, they were forced to replace all the characters and rebrand every ShowBiz into Chuck E Cheese by 1992. Which is why we only have Chuck E Cheese now a days. I remember having ShowBiz growing up, it was quite the spectical and never knew why it was forced to change to Chuck E Cheese.
bob brock wasnt the creator of chuck e cheese he was a franchise owner, the creator of chuck e cheese was nolan bushnell [who also created atari]
you're so lucky you got to go to showbiz 😭
@@memethyst Thank you! Bob apparently was a Franchisee of Chuck e cheese, partnered with Nolan.
There is actually one Rock-Afire Explosion location I know that is still active, under the name "Billy Bob's Wonderland," which is the bear seen in the commercial here. I've actually never been to a Chuck-E-Cheese before because this is only one of these pizzaria places around.
@@darnit16 there are a few people who own rockafire shows privately but billy bob's wonderland is the only public rockafire in the us
I still have merch, tokens and tickets from showbiz. When they changed to chuck e cheese, it was never the same. Had a crush on Mitsy. Not in a furry way. I knew the girl at my local one who wore the suit. I woulda clapped the tail offa them rat cheeks. 😏
As someone who visited both Showbiz and Chuck-E-Cheese, you are absolutely right. Showbiz is better in every regard.
goofy ahh name
@@rufus8821 goofy ahh profile pic
I like how nobody has mentioned that one of the songs the band plays in the commercial is the same song that was sampled in the album “everywhere at the end of time” by the caretaker 💀
@@lil.disappointment hate to break to you, but that song isn't only known as "haha i forgor" song.
Do they have the animatronic characters in the pizza place ?
props for chad still scaring us with the *HOOTWIRELESS* joke. 🎉
😅😅😅😅😅🤭🤭🤭🤭🏳️🌈
Yez🎉🎉🎉🎉
Is at 7:29🎉🌸
I'm pretty sure the car in the Lorax commercial was even found to be one of the worst cars ever in terms of emission output.
Ouch.
Yeah, because these companies just make up awards and bs terms like skyactive technology and they know most people who care about the environment are too stupid to ask questions and just applaud whenever a company says they are doing good without any proof behind it.
@@ronanmailhot8670 A very big ouch.
extremely large sized ouch
but....but-but SKYACTIV
Actually, fun fact: the Surfing Monkey PSA was inspired by something the producer's friend did. He and his wife got high and ended up ordering a couple things from QVC -- a Star Trek collector's plate, a Chi-Wash-Wa home car-washing system and a pewter statuette in the shape of Michael Jordan. Spent $400 on it all. When the producer, Greg Collins, made the PSA, they had to trim it down to one item to fit a 30-second commercial spot, so his friend settled on a coin bank in the shape of a surfing monkey because it was just so ridiculous. $300 was spent on shooting the PSA and it was sold to the Partnership to End Addiction, or the Partnership for a Drug-Free America as it was called back then. The rest is history, as they say.
Which really translates to 'don't peruse certain content whilst stoned'.
Yeah I don't get why this would make me not want to do drugs, like ha ha I bought like 15 Silly Monkey Piggy Banks, just seems like maybe I should just avoid QVC while I'm high
the irony is this is condoning weed amongst other things, and a lot of countries legalized weed because there is just no point of criminilizing something safer than alcohol, a legal substance.
the monkey bank
I thought the whole idea was that someone would have to be on drugs to even consider buying something like that, let alone 15 of them.
maybe you should do a Japanese cursed commercial episode special considering how many of those things are around.
He did along time ago.
I’d go for an anime opening to cursed commercials though.
♫Long, long, maaaaaaaaannnn!♫ lmfao
Remember that milk commercial

“Internet, do your thing” is definitely one for the quote books.
I'm starting to think Chad records theses every Halloween, and then uploads them MONTHS after Halloween.
nah, he's just stuck in a place where it's always Halloween... i could think of far worse curses, ngl. XD
He probably just set it up into a room he never uses, turned into that
@@UltimateGamerCC The curse does also make it so that there's only one thing on TV, so there is that to contend with
The cosplay on that GameStop commercial was actually not too bad. They got Link down pat.
Kirby though
@@professionaltrashcan6758 Eh, Pikachu was worse.
Yosh though, big oof
I was kinda dissatisfied they didn’t show Samus or Inkling
A Samus costume would probably be super badass and the Inkling cosplay could be really easily pulled off aside from maybe the hair.
GameStop, I am _very_ disappointed in you
I appreciate his take on animatronics and Showbiz Pizza. When I was a kid, it only ever seemed like people enjoyed those places, or at the very most, would make fun of them. Maybe some folks thought they were creepy, but it never seemed that way to me.
One time Chuck E Cheese I was walking by the birthday area and a kid comes running out screaming "OH GOD IT'S THE RAT!"
i heard someone call chuck E cheese "the rat casino" one time i dont remember when i heard it tho
that's what that lady gets for trying to gaslight her daughter into thinking she couldn't have a tasty and light breakfast with Buondi Motta😤
God was so outraged at her lying he straight up deleted her
LazyTown was created in Iceland so they are advertising in Icelandic
Honestly this is the first time I’ve seen someone who’s not very familiar with Showbiz Pizza look at something Showbiz/Rock Afire Explosion related and not immediately talk about how terrified they are or how “it’s just like FNaF!!”
But honestly, it’s pretty rad to see someone else who still has an appreciation for the groovy little pizza robots
I’m thinking of the gravity falls episode with a pizza place based in that and the bears head explodes into a kids lap.
@@astrowolvez that was actually made before fnaf _(pretty cool fact!!!)_
@@astrowolvez that episodes animatronics were actually based off the Rock Afire, it makes sense!
I LOVE THE RAE!!! (especially beach Bear, Dook and Mitzi)
(also I hate it when people see the RAE or other irl animatronics and then immediately say “omg so scary” or compare them to fnaf*
*I do like fnaf but it always clogs up discussion on real animatronics and I hate that so much)
Dr. Seuss is rolling in his grave because of that Mazda commercial
I've just had the sudden realisation that Chad kinda looks like the presenter character from the old Buzz quiz party games for the PS2.
I was born way after Showbiz pizzas stopped being a thing but damn, that synth playing gorilla seems like a cool guy, I'd hang out with him
his name is fatz geronimo! and i totally agree; from the show tapes i've seen, he is a cool dude. :]
The way the robots move around is surprising very seamless. There’s robots today that fail to move like that.
Okay the GameStop one got me big time. I was NOT expecting that kind of advertising.
9:21 i cannot escape this gosh darn song
A new cursed commercials episode, today is a great day! 31 episodes. Hard to believe it’s been going that long.
i remember when cursed commercials was new and chad was also switching rooms. good times.
I bet that's just season 1
I was a kid when ShowBiz Pizza was still around, and Chucky Cheese replaced the Show Biz pizza in my town. I always preferred ShowBiz. I just remember the whole atmosphere and aesthetic was better to me. Ahh, nostalgia. 😂
ShowBiz Pizza rebranded to Chuck E. Cheese's Pizza in the early 90s to stop having to pay royalties to use The Rock-Afire Explosion in their restaurants. In reality, Chuck E. Cheese and ShowBiz Pizza Place are the exact same place, just different branding and stage shows.
I found a old record of rockeit fire explosion
dudes been making content for 7 years now, respect the gain man
I support you for saying the whole x shot blaster name. It had no context, but more context then I would have.
I am SO glad you watched the buondì ad, people went crazy when it aired. And they made more like that one btw. Let's just say the marketing team had fun.
The line the kid said at the start already got me.
It’s like an Old Spice ad but with food
You should do a whole video about the series of Japanese commercials "The Long, Long Man" There's many and the pick up from where the last left off telling a long, long story
Don’t forget the banana commercial and the one milk commercial where the teacher turns into a chalk stick
seriously though, he should do a monthly special on Japanese commercials.... there is too much to pick up from!
That'd be awesome
@@lunanote-cassettemeower Umm what? That sounds very intriguing.
It's not Japanese but their is this one Chinese 7up commercial which is just completely insane as to the events that procure in it, from aliens, to suicide to time travel to the military etc
Chad's first Cursed Commercials episode was 3 years ago. Feel old yet?
Yeah.
I remember when it was new
Age is just a number
Of years you've been alive.
@@pyredynasty let's keep that thought to ourselves, unless you want chris hansen asking you to have a seat.
I’m Twelve. This is the first thing to make me feel old. ( besides looking at the release date of the first Despicable Me.)
I just watched a real ad thinking it was part of the video
12:37 i personally think he is absolutely rocking that look
16:29 This is probably the funniest drug psa ever made
the drug free america one had me laughing for so long XD
Those cursed commercials are something that came straight out of the Interdimensional Cable.
I remember the Cereal Saturday Commercial…constantly ran on Nick because of Wreck-It-Ralph being a thing & it being the 2010s. Absolutely thought it was cool but it was cut to fit the ad slot.
We all remember that point in the 2010s when all cartoons wanted to be like Steven Universe and it was pretty annoying, but not this commercial it's pretty funky in a good way
How ever much they paid you was not enough for how often you shoved that toy gun in our faces lol
Technically, by going to Chuck E Cheese as a kid, you went to Showbiz Pizza. Showbiz won against CEC in the indoor playplace competition back in the mid 80s, and CEC Inc. sold nearly every location to the competing company in 1985. But since they were having issues with the creator of the Rockafire Explosion animatronic band, they instead adopted Chuck and his friends as their mascots and rebranded completely as CEC.
TL;DR, you have been to a Showbiz Pizza, you've just never seen the Rockafire Explosion
not all locations were showbiz locations. some were just made after that whole thing.
Apparently they didn't start the rebranding until 1990, and there were still Showbiz Pizza locations that hadn't been changed over to use the Chuck E. Cheese's name and characters until 1992.
Which explains why I clearly remember Showbiz Pizza being advertised on TV when I was really young.
As an italian, the Buondì ad hit me with the nostalgia truck at 62mph
10:59 oh no, I hope the fandom doesn’t find out about this
* Tony the Tiger Flashbacks *
Dude, they most likely already have.
What fandom
@@eBic_Individual the furry fandom
@@jabbersthekillerrabbit5057 oh ok
internet, do your thing.
I remember seeing the Saturday cereal commercial all the time when I was a kid, but I never saw the cookie crisp wolf being buff. I guess they cut that out
I noticed that you considered these commercials a bit more than you usually do, and you had much more thoughtful things to say… this was especially present when you were talking about the animatronic restaurant and how FNAF has ruined them… I like this version of chad who shares some deeper thoughts and encourage him to continue like this
totally agree
Wow there’s been so many I can’t believe we’ve gotten this far I really enjoy the series and I hope it goes on for a long time
Chadtronic should rate the Omega Mart commercials
In geometry, the rhombicosidodecahedron is an Archimedean solid, one of thirteen convex isogonal nonprismatic solids constructed of two or more types of regular polygon faces. It has 20 regular triangular faces, 30 square faces, 12 regular pentagonal faces, 60 vertices, and 120 edges.
🤓
In geometry, the metagyrate diminished rhombicosidodecahedron is one of the Johnson solids (J78). It can be constructed as a rhombicosidodecahedron with one pentagonal cupola (J5) rotated through 36 degrees, and a non-opposing pentagonal cupola removed. (The cupolae cannot be adjacent.)
You speak funny words, science potato
I read it as archdemon solid, takes on a whole diffrent context XD
The Bible says that no one is a good person. We have all broken God's law the 10 commandments, we have all committed, lies, adultery, idolatry, and blasphemy. We deserve hell, but because of what Jesus did on the cross we can be forgiven. So if you Repent of your sins, change your wicked ways, and put your faith in Christ you will be written in the book of life. 👌 🙏Repentance is reviewing one's actions and feeling contrition or regret for past wrongs, which is accompanied by commitment to and actual actions that show and prove a change for the better.. ..
The Showbiz pizza featured in that commercial is literally 5 minutes from my house.
Mazda is automatically based for doing a commercial in The Lorax universe. The Lorax didn't have to go so hard with its soundtrack, but we're glad it did because it made the movie a masterpiece
Thank you O Hare
You know someone as evil as kim jong in would say this
@@littleo4844 hn
3:37 Wait, LazyTown used to look like this? My life is a lie!
Nope. This was a commercial deal thing they had before the show even existed. They’re puppets from the plays, the Glanni Glæpur Í Latabæ ones specifically. The one in a hoodie is Maggi Mjóí or jives junkfood and the caped one is Siggi Sæti or Siggi Sweets.
10:47 Ok, BUT THIS COMMERCIAL BROUGHT SO MUCH NOSTALGIA WITH IT THOUGH!
The kid sounds like Finn from Adventure Time
showbiz pizza was actually in competition with chuckie cheeses and then they were bought out by them.
That cereal commercial is super nostalgic to me. glad to see after all these years 🦊👍
The fruit head fruit gushers commercials used to freak me out as a kid and I actually stayed away from eating fruit gushers out of fear that my head would actually turn into a watermelon 🍉
10:04 Funny you should mention that Chad, but Showbiz ended up buying Chuck E. Cheese in I believe 1984.
I died of tears and Almond Joy when the mother was killed by an Asteroid! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
"Gamestop is just like Build a Bear for gamers. You go to buy a Mario plushie and _maybe_ a game."

@@drawingdragon yee
The thing I enjoy alot about the Cursed Commercials series besides the interesting commercials and Chads reactions is the atmosphere that is created that I feel it’s intentional with how it comes off like a local tv horror host like Sammy Terry or something. Also I always get Munster vibes with that melody that plays when we see that outside shot of the castle.
Those are Lazytown characters but from before it was a show. The designs are very different from how they later appeared in the show.
Yes!! The characters were Jives and the early versions of Ziggy and sportacus :)
@Spamton and Pauline Fan Est 2003maybe was canceled beacuse the motive of his lazyness was similar to Ziggy
Their names are Siggi, Maggi and íþróttaálfurinn. Pls don’t use the English names when referring to play characters.
@@fritzy8318 oh okay sorry (I kinda forgot them beacuse I'm no longer in the Fandom lol)
Considering the smogulous smoke output from this cars, they are most certainly not truffula friendly. The PR people are lying.
Yup, exactly.
It's ironic because the movie itself literally warns people to NOT listen to this EXACT type of ads. 😑
I love this show because it feels like a real show that might have been on in the late 90's. The green slime with the purple, and the cheesy spooky props give me that old school Halloween feel that Iv always wished was year round. Even a puppet to boot.
I like that its long enough that you can really sit down and properly enjoy it. Oh and I like that their is some kind of weird gag at the start. Its not often something so new can make me feel so nostalgic.
FINALLY! A NEW EPISODE! It's four days before my birthday and I'm glad that this early birthday present is out!
11:42 - 11:55
I never laughed so hard in my life!!
Its nice to see that the alternate timeline chadtronic who didnt get sent to the castle got the same sponsor.
Since my TV spontaneously shut itself off three times while watching this, yes, this video is cursed
“It’s cursing time “
I remember the It’s Saturday cereal add playing
I love Buondì. I raccomend them they actually taste pretty good despite most of their ads being chaotic.
The people in the anti drug commercial sound like a dollar store beavis and butthead
The first commercial is actually for icelandic vegetables
And your actually right, it is from lazytown
It features ziggy, sportacus and jives (who didn’t make it into the show)
*Siggi, Maggi, Íþróttaálfurinn
They’re from the PLAYS not the show.
yeah, what the other commentor said. it uses puppets of the characters from the original plays that inspired the show. ^_^
Good to see you're armed and ready against curse.
9:10 Showbiz Was Actually The Original Chuck E Cheese In The Mid 80s And Changed It’s Name To Chuck E Cheese In The 90s
Cec was actually 1978 i think
No I thought it’s in 1991
7:29 I knew there would be a hoot wireless edit somewhere in this episode
I’m a huge fan of obscure children’s shows/other types of media :)
same !! :0
@@wubboxloid especially the really obscure ones like Lomax The Hound Of Music! (a 2008 pbs kids puppet series about a dog named Lomax, his cat friend Delta, their owner Amy and a train called the melody hound!)

@@wubboxloid unfortunately there isn’t much content about it online and the third episode is lost media, the rest of the episodes are on yt for free tho :) (they only made one season of it)
@@ShockwaveFurbyOfficial ohh, well, i will check out what still exists of it then !!
Man I know this is cursed commericals but that breakfast cereal commercial trying to be cool and wacky murdered me with cringe. Keep up the fun series!
I love how all the Undertale and Deltarune profile pics are meeting here. I'm here to continue that.
the 1st one looked like if lazy town fused with mr.meaty.
and i never knew showbiz pizza was its own thing. i thought it was all the same place but they just changed their name to chuck e cheese.
showbiz bought chuck e after the 80's and reskinned the characters accordingly. you might be surprised at the amount of chuck e cheese's restaurants that still remain that actually used to be a showbiz.
The puppets are actually early lazy town puppets and the one with the green beanie is a character named jives who was mainly in the Icelandic musicals :)
excuse me if i go off on a tangent. im a huge fan of obscure kids media! okay so first, the first commercial is actually made by the creator of lazytown, but it was way before it was known as that! the characters from lazytown and this commericial are based off the creator's original plays! :)
next, youre partially right about the second sentence! showbiz bought cec when the game market crashed in the 80s, and they merged into one (but still operated their own restaurants) but after some legal disagreements relating to the character rights of the rockafire, this whole thing called "concept unification" happened where (like you said) the rockafire turned into munchs make believe band (the band you see in modern cec, or used to see) and everything got rebranded to cec!
I’d give benefit of the doubt with the Tom Hanks one. There are so many more famous actors they could have used and they used Tom Hanks
8:18 I also don’t remember the part where Lorax and pipsqueak goes to IHOP in the movie
Me: Can I buy a costume?
The costume at home: 16:35
I remember when you were so worried about COPPA, and now you're literally advertising kids toys
I'm pretty sure Showbiz Pizza bought or was bought by Chuck-E-Cheese and the two franchises merged. I recall a brand history video that went into detail about how many of the Animatronics were straight up reskinned into Chuck E Cheese's band.
Thanks for keeping this series going Chad. I love it.
1:55 did anyone else see the epic trick shot?
Dude, that Panky commercial is something out of my highschool days, half-awake early morning nightmares in the bathroom, JESUS. Suddenly a haunted toy is at your door 😂 No thank you
The trix commercial I think it was a spin on breadwinners because the animation style was somewhat similar and the like voice acting also reminded of the show and yeah
1:25- (record scratches while “Baba O’Reily” by The Who- AKA the CSI: New York theme song- starts playing) “You may be wondering how I got into this situation…”
Showbiz Pizza was actually the _better_ version of Chuck E. Cheese and won the war, then bought the rights to all the Chuck E. Cheese characters when they went out of business. They replaced their own mascots with the other set they found more marketable.
So yes, in the 80s Chuck E. Cheese pizza was even worse than it is now, because the better pizza place is the one that took over the brand.
honestly only just discovered this channel last night but i'm really enjoying these cursed commericals, i've already recommended your channel to my friends :)
The cereal commercial with the buff wolf is the worst commercial that has ever existed
So they're implying that you have to be on drugs to want the surfing monkey coin bank?
Chad, if you get a chance, seek out Wild Deodourant ads. They are very cursed indeed.
Buying 13 Surfing Monkey Coin Banks is hilarious while completely sober.
6:00- I actually vaguely remember that sweepstakes commercial when it aired.
1:50 HE MADE IT OUT OF THE CASTLE
Oh boy, more cursed advertising! If you weren't hosting this Chadly, I'd be terrified to watch these! I'm glad you're here to guide us through them!

Those Showbiz Pizza animatronics look pretty good tbh
I was so surprised when Rolfe appeared ( the animatronic wolf)
10:48 I'm gonna be real here: this was just all the General Mills mascots going full 10s Poochie. Nothing but buzzwords, catch phrases, CALARTS eyes, and neon colors that a bunch of executives think "rate well in this demo".

Guys wake up.....new cursed commercials just dropped
The commercial at 14:03, I was in Italy when I saw it myself on TV and I swear there's a sequel to it where the little girl runs to her family panicking that her mother died to a meter while the family didn't believe her because they were vibing too hard on the commercial product to care. Then another meteor hit and killed the family traumatizing the little girl again.
