Creepy TV ads from my childhood

On 7 December, 2009 · 4 Comments · In Funnybones


This jingle has always creeped me right out, and now they’re using it in a revised ad (I think with some of the original talent?) People think I’m strange when I start moaning “more, moooore, MOOOOORE, MORE BUTTERMILK” but it’s the ad that’s making me do it. I swear.


GOBBLEDOCKS. I was just out of that age group where I was scared of imaginary creatures, but it was still creepy!


Apparently the Antz Pantz ad won the best ad in Australian TV advertising, but when it came out I was kind of agog at the sexualisation and the echidna and the ants and I never knew where to look when it was on.


Mortein never managed to kill Louie the Fly since creating him in the 60s. I think they more successfully branded all flies as “Louies” (that’s what my Dad always used to call them!)


YAY SEXISM. But damn it’s a catchy jingle.


Man sized thirst! You’ve gotta crack a Solo! I always liked drinking Solo because well, I enjoyed it and I wanted to stick it to The Man.


Hands down, the skeeviest ad AND product name… EVER.

    You've found the worst TV ads, but actually in the past, most commercials are more interesting and creative than the ones made today.
