Your Favorite Past Christmas TV Commercials?

[Icee Racer]

What are your favorite past Christmas TV commercials?

[Head Elf]

my favorite is the folgers commercial where Peter comes home. Then I also like the Bud commercial with the horse that passes gas. I also like the Norelco commercial from the 60's with the little dude sledding with the razor.

[Chillywilly]

The Norelco commercial was a favorite from my childhood. And most memorable too. :nice:

[kidzrme]

Oh I love the Folgers commercial when Peter comes home!

[dominick]

You have my favorite at the very top!

[sugarplum fairy]

That was a toughy. It was between the M&M's, the Polar Bears, and the Hershey kisses. I finally voted for the M&M's, but I love all 3.

[joyful]

I had to vote for the Norelco shaver since it brings back such wonderful childhood memories for me.

I do like the Hershey Kisses, oh gee I like most of the Christmas commercials.

[gameshowguy2000]

I voted the Kisses one, because you can't have the Holidays without them. As for the M&M's commercials, there was one that promoted HOLIDAYS (the original name for the Christmas M&M's). When they were first promoted, they had Christmas symbols on them, and since '92 or '93 they've been adorned with the trademark M.

I loved last years "They do exist!" M&M commercials because The M&M's go 'He does exist!' and Santa goes 'They Do exist!'...

But i also love Hershy Kisses as the bells...

The top fave though has to be Coca-Cola bears

[Undrtakr]

I like the "Time life cd" commercials. You know its the season when you see them :D

[girlyfied]

I love any of the Coca-Cola Christmas commercials. YouTube has a bunch of old commercials. Here's a reel of several from the 80s (my childhood):

I like the Coke Holiday truck, as well as the folgers...I found a great place online to view these old commercials.

[Sunshine73]

I like the "Time life cd" commercials. You know its the season when you see them :D

When I was younger, I would get so excited to see the Time Life Christmas commercial. It was the same one for years and I could sing along to all the song "snippets" that they played. It was always the first Christmas commercial that I saw each year (usually starting it's run during late night programming in October)!.

[Maebeary]

The Norelco commercial was a favorite from my childhood. And most memorable too. :nice:

I had that one chosen when I saw the thread. I was surprised when it was a choice...but I'm sticking with it! :razz:

[Annette1990]

Thought I'd bump this thread up for our new members...it's a pretty good one.

[ducktapehero]

I love the Coke ones, and also the Norelco one too. Another one I LOVE that isn't on there was the one where the girl wakes up to find that Santa had left her gobs and gobs of toys. The Dad says "Those must have been SOME cookies" the girl says "I didn't leave him cookies, I left him cheese" That one's great



E2A: Here it is

:rudolph:When I was a kid, it wasn't OFFICIALLY Christmas until Santa came down that hill on his Norelco shaver.

Does anyone else remember the GE commercials that accompanied some of their GE Theatre presentations..?

I vaguely recall both the elves from Rudolph and Mister Magoo hawking lightbulbs on separate occasions.

[Minta]

There are so many Christmas Commercials that I love that it was hard to choose.
The coca cola trucks, hersey kisses, polar bears, peter - folgers are just a few.

[George Broderick, Jr.]

:rudolph:I also kinda like (and it's not on the list) the Mastercard one that's animated in a "New Yorker" cartoon style with the background music of Dean Martin singing Let It Snow, Let It Snow, Let It Snow...

[cipalla]

i love the kisses commercial, and the folgers makes me cry....

[George Broderick, Jr.]

:rudolph:And there's that new Aflac commercial where Rudolph has a head cold and everyone is worried that he'll miss "work" and the Aflac duck has to pull Santa's sleigh... they used all the original voices from Rudolph... how cool is that?

[DoubleA]

The bears commercial will always be one of my fav's, when you add those then the penguins, perfecto!
But those M&M ones are always great as well.

[Billy Battles]

I have the most nostalgic memories about a Kroger Christmas commercial. That I used to see when I was a kid.

[Mumof2]

I liked the Folgers one where the older brother Peter came home,always reminded me of one of my brothers comming home.:)

[purplecrush]

I also love the Folgers one...but my all-time favorite one is the one with Ronald McDonald ice skating with the kids...the music in that brings me back to when I was 8. It gives me goosebumps just writing this!

I love the McDonald's commercials -- both Christmas and Halloween. And, I agree, Folgers' is simply marvelous.

[Mumof2]

Oh yea I forgot about the McDonald's ones! I jus watched that one and the kisses one! Brings back memories!
