Rediscover Classic 2001 TV Commercials
A Nostalgic Look at Vintage Ads from a Lost VHS Tape
I recently watched a six-hour VHS tape from January 22, 2001, and discovered a treasure trove of classic commercials that bring back pure nostalgia. These vintage ads capture the essence of early 2000s television, from fast food favorites to tech innovations.
Here are some highlights from the tape:
- KRON News Morning Promo - A fun parody of Banana Boat (Day-O).
- KTVU 6 PM News Promo - KTVU's Best in the Nation TV promotion featuring Dennis Richmond.
- EarthLink Internet - "People used to think the world was flat? then came Magellan. Now it's your turn."
- AOL 6.0 - Featuring parental controls and legendary customer service. So easy to use, no wonder it's #1!
- Triscuit Commercial - "The perfect snack while waiting for pizza - 30 minutes or 3.5 hours in dog time!"
- Miller Time - Featuring the "In Your Dreams" Miller Time ad and the "Inappropriate Miller Time" commercial.
- XFL Promo on NBC - Real football, no limits. The XFL debuts on February 3rd!
- Jack in the Box - A hilarious fast food convention skit featuring Brad, the $25K per nugget consultant.
- Men's Wearhouse - Featuring the iconic George Zimmer: "You'll like the way you look. I guarantee it."
These commercials are a time capsule of early 2000s advertising, showcasing major brands and trends of the era. Do you remember seeing any of these on TV?
