They Don't Call Him Grimace for Nothing
Scrubbles pal Tim Harrod explores
freaky-ass old McDonald's commercials in a hilarious
Stay Free magazine article (via
Adfreak.com). Those little spindly-legged french fry guys always creeped me out.

Too true.
Makes me long for the glory days of H.R.Pufnstuf:

Some crazy stuff. Most interesting might be, however, an early appearance of Chris Meloni, from Law and Order SVU and Wet Hot American Summer, in the "Blind Date" spot.
Thanks, Matt.
Oh these are fantastic! That cheesy faux-psychedelic McDonaldsland song alone made the long download times worth it!
It's amazing how much of the drug culture Madison Avenue managed to slip into commercials from that era.
