70’s jack: **wholesomely plays with children at a local playground** late 80’s and early 90’s jack: **tracks down a random man for making an offensive pun about jack’s burgers and proceeds to enter his home and commits aggregated assault on him**

I never have eaten there...but I'm a HUGE fan of Jack...no maskot makes me feel like Jack does (maybe just the Caveman) because I think that maskots are just stupid tricks to make me buy their junk......but Jack is so different...so bold...a murderous psycho...but a lovely man dancing Jumbaco for his kid at the same time. A man that really loves his burguers...and totally hates to be blown up! Jack Box is the best example that a good ad totally creates a BOND with a brand, and also could make you forget some MYSTERIOUS deaths!...even if you haven't used it in your goddamn life. Jack taught me how to deal with manslaughtering and being fired! Money & dy·na·mite! So long life to the most BADASS CEO Clown! Total respect!
I just came from watching Jack In The Box commercials, and boy they were so hilarious and iconic. I wanted to know more about it and I was so excited to find this amazing video! Thank you so much for this, your channel deserves a lot more views for this awesome content so please don't stop making videos like this!
I miss Jack in the Box and it's great tasting food, they pulled out of Chicago and pretty much the Midwest back in the early 80s and concentrated their franchise to the Pacific+Southwest zone!!!
Jack in the Box, is drying up in Stephenville, Waco, Temple, Killeen, Copperas Cove, and there's NO J.I.B. in Brownwood, or other college towns.. I'm forced to visit McDonald's, Taco Bell, and Whataburger.. I think Golden Chick has a good 5 piece Catfish meal, with coleslaw, green beans, dirty rice... Texas J.I.B is mostly in the BIG Towns.. DFW, San Antonio, Austin, El Paso, and Houston... SAD.... Gas at $4.50+ a gallon in some spots.. it sucks..
They changed the burgers and got rid of the sesame seed bun. The 1st burger change felt like a McDonald's copy cat, and now they use thinner patty with a cheap texture ever since covid.
Man for all the crap that Jack in the box gets from people, they introduced so many new things to fast food that we all take for granted nowadays and a lot of tasty stuff as well. And for me I don’t know now learning more things about them, I they should have their characters from the 70’s come back and it would be interesting to see in the commercials what the modern Jack would think of them and would they look like in the newer commercials with modern Jack in the suit and tie. I would love that for sure. And they definitely would be funny commercials as well.
OK.... With THAT said, why is Jack in the Box places in Texas, abandoned, or dining room locked? Does J.I.B. pay enough for good people to show up to work? Is it because of Covid-19 Whataburger, and other burger places are destroying Jack? I got $15.00 on my Jack Cash Card, and I'm in Texas... Most J.I.B. places are closed or the people don't get my order right.. W.T.F.? I had to get a Filet-O-Fish from McDonald's because Whataburger halted making Whatacatch's.. Does J.I.B. make Fish Burgers in Texas? I had a hankering for a Bacon, Fish, Cheese, Onion Burger with onion rings, fries and a 44oz drink..
Evolution Of Jack: First Years: A Cartoon Clown Middle Years: *a resteraunt (at the time he was blown up and yeeted to the ground)* New Years: A More Mature Antennae ball (also a menace)
This video does a good job explaining the history of Jack in the Box. I think it was an idiot decision for them to quit working with Rick Sittig. The current ads for Jack in the Box are awful, where as I love a lot of the old commercials for Jack in the Box from the '90s and 2000s.
70s' jack: singing songs wholesomely and being a good mascot new jack: *basically being a psychopath to humans who dont eat the new burgers and uses puns about burgers*
I wish we had more of the animated 1970s Jack In The Box Bunch commercials, because that's my favorite era of JITB. I love the 70s incarnation of Jack, but Secret Sauce Agent and The Shakes are also favorite characters of mine. I hope one day we can get more Jack In The Box Bunch stuff, maybe even Funko Pops based on them!
I'm ASTOUNDED that they cut ties with Rick Siddig. The man is a legitimate GENIUS. Had no idea he also created the Energizer Bunny, who's also still going strong after all these decades. All hail Rick Siddig!
one of the things that I wanna do when I visit America is to eat at Jacks. It would be like a dream come true. I am from the Czech Republic so we dont have any of his restaurants here
Jack In The Box back then: We're a family friendly restaurant! Look at our commercial! It's so appealing to the kids! Jack In The Box now: Look at my bowls.
I worked at the marketing research and consulting company that was contracted to do the customer survey to gauge if the public wanted to keep or remove Jack. According to the owner the company, when he gave the survey findings presentation showing the majority of respondents wanted to keep Jack it seemed that the high ups at Jack in the Box already had their minds made up about dumping him.
Incredibly well researched and really awesome that you even managed to find some of these older ads, photos, and ad storyboards too! Thanks for the video!
I think the gradual shift of JITB marketing represents a coming of age for the company: The original 60s-70s ads were childhood: they showed us goofy clowns, fun songs, and advertising resembling McDonald’s (which also appealed to kids) The later 70s-80s ads were adolescence: they got rid of the clown in an attempt to get away from their childlike branding, as well as focus on live action and humor. They even attempted short lived rebrandings such as “Monterey Jack”, which was ultimately just a phase The 90s and beyond ads are adulthood: the clown is back, all grown up and ready to return to the spotlight. These new ads are a lot funnier, saucier, and occasionally darker; and represent how the restaurant has finally found its footing once it came of age. The reason why it’s lasted so long is because of how adulthood is technically the longest life stage.
jack commits mass bombings and mayor assassination attempts on a small town in Wyoming, United States for containing every fast food chain BUT jack in the box. “some people may question such actions, and to those people, i’d like to say one thing.” the whole news set was blown up by the click of a button, with jack surviving and saying “our food will blow up, and the only other option is to blow up.” jack managed to escape the town after the bombings and wound up in washington, d.c. some estimate his plans are to infiltrate the white house and overthrow the government. he’s currently wanted dead or alive in almost 15 states and is considered a national threat to many civilians. when showing up in d.c., he was greeted by news outlets and forced him to spill the beans. he only said “i’m just here for one quest; to make sure everyone will live to see jack in the box, or not live at all.” before disappearing into the bushes.
The commercials in the late 90s/early 2000s really were great. The humor was clever, often nuanced, and sometimes just wild. And yes, I'll admit it, it made me think "Hell, I'll give them a chance just for being clever." And so I did. I'd avoided them for years because of the e-coli thing (and the fact there are too many fast food choices and I only eat it about twice a month). When I lived in Washington state it became my go-to FF place... and I always looked forward to the newest Jack commercial.
Not quite.... Chiat/Day was the agency. Sittig was an employee and a genius. When Taco Bell called Chiat/Day said YE$... Sittig said no and continued to handle JITB for years with his own shop until new owners ruined it ...the new Jack ads suck compared to the Chiat/Day and Sittig etc work.
I remember watching that commerical if jack blowing up the CEO board room and not realizing why that was suppose to funny. I had to watch some earlier commercials where they got rid of his character in the 70s to understand why that was funny.

And that's why you don't blow Jack!
💀
Dude literally got blown up and had to undergo painful therapy and plastic surgery to recover. Methinks he’s a bit messed up from that.

2023-2033 Jack is revealed to a trans but they won't say which one because it's too far out even for corporate pandering America

i’ve heard of people actually having a crush on jack. i’m disappointed that we’re now simping for a clown.
Its the most real food experience in fast food
@@spingleboygle
Clowns can be hot man, idk what you're talking about
The food is pretty good and the shakes are, for real, pretty awesome.

Me too
I miss Jack in the Box and it's great tasting food, they pulled out of Chicago and pretty much the Midwest back in the early 80s and concentrated their franchise to the Pacific+Southwest zone!!!
They reopened in Missouri and 2 Ohio locations. I wish they came further east
You're not missing much. That which you once knew has been gone for a long time.
The burgers are now small and made of rat. 😤

I honestly wish there was a movie about him. Now that would be hilarious.
@@SportsFan838 It probably wouldn't make it past Jack's dreams

Evolution Of Jack:
First Years: A Cartoon Clown
Middle Years: *a resteraunt (at the time he was blown up and yeeted to the ground)*
New Years: A More Mature Antennae ball (also a menace)
My favorite Jack ad is the one where tackles a man for saying "Junk in The Box" and the Teriyaki Bowl ad
I loves Jack's bowls 😍😍😍

I wish I could try too but I live in Egypt and unfortunately we don't have it here :(
Is no one gonna talk about how this guy sounds like Jack
Watched while eating at the restaurant. 10/10 video. Thank you!
Ngl man if they make tv show or a cartoon i bet it’ll be a huge success because of the character, its really charming for some reason
This channel is very underrated, Hope your channel blows up!!
Thank you!
Jack In The Box back then: We're a family friendly restaurant! Look at our commercial! It's so appealing to the kids!
Jack In The Box now: Look at my bowls.
Everyone will want to get they’r hands on Jack’s bowls!
I love how innocent Jack was in those commercials 😂 (Sorry if I broke a chain here)

It's ironic how this old mascot had blown up once again.
jack in the box makes me feel new emotions inside
I actually get what you mean. A special feeling of joy and hunger.
OMG....I forgot about The Jack In The Box Bunch....but I remember it well, now!
I go back to ordering from the traditional JITB in the drive through.
Incredibly well researched and really awesome that you even managed to find some of these older ads, photos, and ad storyboards too! Thanks for the video!

see all the bad things that happened when jack was gone? that's why you don't mess with jack
Daaaaaamn Jack Box blew up the board room. Today it would be sooooo inappropriate and pc incorrect.
Also Jack is Steve jobs 😂
Jack breaks into people's houses and assaults them until they admit they like Jack in the Box

Glad i wanted to know more about Jak from Jak in the box cuz now I know of your channel. Deserves more love man
Thank you for checking out the channel!
I think I still have a couple of those jack-in-the-box antenna toppers one for Christmas too. They were never opened.
15 cents for a burger. What a time. These days, we’re not far off from $15 for a burger.
Uh how does the recent tiktok trend simping over Jack play into this timeline
Why does this not have more views?
The commercials were always funny especially the h*Insert censor here*y ones 🤣
I used to collect the antenna tops!
That one dude
Eating jack tacos while watching this
This channel is pretty underrated.
never knew there was so much JITB lore
*_jack will speak to you._*
in the first clip that was jack raising wendy
Good video
Very interesting.
When will you do more videos?
you sound like huggbees
Not quite.... Chiat/Day was the agency. Sittig was an employee and a genius. When Taco Bell called Chiat/Day said YE$... Sittig said no and continued to handle JITB for years with his own shop until new owners ruined it ...the new Jack ads suck compared to the Chiat/Day and Sittig etc work.
So McDonald stole it 😮😮
5:18 ya mean Christopher Robin?
Source: find a grave ☠️☠️☠️
Bro why does he sound like Jack
Or wouldn't it be Jack of(f) the box?
You speak each and every sentence in the exact same tune.
the horror movie brought me here

THERE WAS A CLIP WHERE JACK WAS RAISING HIS HANDS LIKE THE NAZIS FROM WWI AND WWII
I remember watching that commerical if jack blowing up the CEO board room and not realizing why that was suppose to funny. I had to watch some earlier commercials where they got rid of his character in the 70s to understand why that was funny.
Damb there's more history to jack in the box then I thought
I want jack in the box in India
You got plenty of beef there.
