That Bubblicious commercial is such a classic!! Always loved that commercial!! MTV needs to have a Retro MTV and play all the videos from the 80's and 90's!! I bet more people would watch that channel than the reality garbage that is on regular MTV!
Love these! I was a Freshman in 84 but I still remember them vividly. I used to spray that Impulse stuff all over and no one ever followed me with gifts. LOL
@orion5175 Yes, they were a group comprised of siblings signed to Motown and had a number of hits, including "I Like It", which was reworked for this ad. El DeBarge was their lead singer...the guy with the craazy mullet. He later had a solo career and "Who Is Johnny" was part of that.
Love the De Barge dudes mullet!!! I remember Janet Jackson married one of the De barge guys briefly...I used to sing that Baby Ruth song all the time...
@ 0:31, I remember this magazine! Hard to believe, before modern technology (soon-to-be-known as the internet), like Circus and Metal Edge, this was the way I could get my updates or the latest news on my favorite bands.
Oh DeBarge, how could you? Conan The Destroyer was my brother's favorite movie. My parents recorded it off HBO and he'd act the whole thing out. Every time I see a Baby Ruth, I think of Caddyshack. Ugh, Schlitz. Shitz.
I didn't get to fully experience MTV until around 87/88. I would have to go to a friends house to watch it before that time, but I still had Friday Night Videos (NBC) and Night Tracks (TBS) to watch in which Night Tracks was awesome!.
so was de barge a group? I always remember " who is johnny" song and always thought it was just that one guy's name, now it's still just him and he goes by El Debarge.
this is a good one, the bubble gum song is awesome, and the other commercials are easy to make fun off, and of course theres Arnold. And whats up with that pic of Glenn Tipton at :59 ? That's the first time i ever saw him make a funny face.
That ad w/ De Barge was ca-reepy! everyone wants be aan inch tall and dance around giant Big Mcs & bags of french fries isn't there a new Conan movie that's supposed to come out this summer? that Bubblicious ad is an absolute trip!
Space age beer! Cans in the 80s were funny with their cylinder shapes! Bugs Bunny -- THE SOCK PUPPET! Newtons also had other fruit flavors later in the 80s such as cherry and blueberry.
2:42 If I've said it before, I'll say it again, nothing in life is better than Crushing your enemies, seeing them driven before you, and hearing the lamentations of their women...I like to get all that done before lunch.
@Idoljunky32 and play Remote control and old bevis and butthead. Nickelodeon needs to do the same thing for You can't don that on television and a slue of other shows.
From 00:15 pure '80s overdose... Sea And Ski totally gorgeous girlz Hit Parader: when the magazine talked about real music Bubblicious is bodacious! Well you are dead... too much '80s awesomess!
you know mtv's not like it use to be....its about shitty ass shows that have nothing to do with music now instead of music videos & shows like beavis & butthead & liquid television like it was.

I never imagined a Mel Blanc voicing a promo for MTV ever existed.

That Bubblelicious commercial is such a darkwave banger
I believe that the blond 7-Up guy from the Sprite ad is Thom Mathews from "Return of the Living Dead".
Nair With Aloe Vera! Sea & Ski With Aloe Vera! I half expected to hear "Bubblicious With Aloe Vera!"
*sighs* McDonald's commercials used to be so awesome.
How about that? Mel Blanc lending talents to the early MTV.
That ad w/ De Barge was ca-reepy! everyone wants be aan inch tall and dance around giant Big Mcs & bags of french fries

RIP Apple Newtons.

I always used to wish that the "M" from the Mtv ad @ 7:20 would get all that stubble shaved off.

From 00:15 pure '80s overdose... Sea And Ski totally gorgeous girlz
Hit Parader: when the magazine talked about real music
Bubblicious is bodacious!
Well you are dead... too much '80s awesomess!
Did those teenagers drop some acid before jumping into their locker in that Bubblelicious commercial?
00:34 Hell Yeah!!!!!!
People were better looking in the 80s
Hit Parader, along w/Metal Edge = the Tiger Beats of heavy metal music :/
Have you tried dialing the number that appears in this Hit Parader commercial?
AngelofAnguish Nope
SPF2 suntan lotion!
