In the mid-1980s, Domino's Pizza introduced a quirky new mascot known as The Noid, created by the same company behind "The California Raisins". This mischievous character quickly became a cultural phenomenon and the face of the pizza chain's advertising campaigns.
And while many people know the story of the tragic incident involving a hostage situation and a man named Kenneth Lamar Noid, the order of events over the years has been distorted.
In this video, we explore the rise and fall of The Noid, examining the impact it had on Domino's Pizza and the wider world of advertising and marketing. We delve into the history of the character, from its inception to its ultimate demise, and the cultural significance of The Noid as an iconic figure of the 1980s.
We also discuss the broader implications of branding and commercialism, as well as the role of failed marketing campaigns in shaping consumer perception and brand image. Join us on this journey through the tragic story of The Noid and its lasting impact on the world of pizza and advertising.

This campaign 100% ushered my family into getting pizza delivered and we were pretty loyal to Dominos for a number of years. I clearly remember how the first order came with an awesome Noid PVC toy holding a bomb. I wanted it; but my older brother claimed it. I later got ones of him as a wizard and boxer but I coveted that original Noid. Years later, after my brother moved out, I discovered his left behind Noid and claimed it for myself. It’s currently on display in my collection. Until this video I’d never realized that the Noid was by Vinton Studios. Between the pizza at Dominos and burgers from Hardee’s to get Noid and California Raisins toys I now know where my bad eating habits came from.

I actually did watch the movie, and man, what a film that was. The devil scene is not scary to me, but pretty much sum up my feelings towards humanity as a whole. Felt like I was actually agreeing with the devil there. Except he literally made the planet disappear and everything that was seen there doesn't exist anymore...To be honest, even with live action stuff claymation hybrid stuff, it's much more real than any 3D animation that could try to get as close as the craftsmen of claymation and practical effects anyday. This is why I've yet to see it return someday to the present that is mostly filled with CGI everywhere.

We had some of the Noid figurines. Both of my parents worked at Domino’s at different points when we first moved to town and we got these during my mom’s run.
1) When you can connect The Wheelers to The Noid, good times and scarring childhood moments will occur. 2) Hey, Chamblee is mentioned! Awesome. Oh wait, that mention.... Side Note 3) My mom was OBSESED with the Claymation Christmas. Why??? The three singing camels had sneakers and it cracked her up. 4) I was a straight up baller with my Noid painters cap in the 80's. Only the most "totally rad" stuff for this 80's kid.
I was an intern at Vinton Studios in 2004. I remember seeing an array of different maquettes of the Noid. He went through a lot of color iterations before his final color was chosen.

When I was a kid, I really liked the Noid. It was a good mascot, and the hallmark of an era gone by.
I remember the NES game. And also the dominoes in my hood recently had a "No Noids" decal on the window which I found nostalgically amusing.
OMAIGAWD THE CHRISTMAS DINOS!!!! I REMEMBER THAT AS A KID!!!! You just unlocked an entire portion of my memory that I had COMPLETELY forgotten about! THANKS GALAXY!!! :D
I was very happy they brought back the Noid character a couple of years ago in a new Dominos commercial and questioned why they haven't done a series of commercials since. Especially since Dominos had No Noid stickers on their windows and certain videos on Facebook hinted at the Noid coming back as though it was a major revival. I was expecting some kind of long lasting advertising campaign.
I had noid toys. I live in Chicago so it's really hard to get a "bad" pizza. Maybe those school pizzas that were soggy because they stayed in a tin, but I was a kid and Pizza was a pizza. As an adult, when I was in Denver last year I wanted one and I chose the pizza king and it was the worst pizza I had in my 40 years on this earth.
That Claymation Christmas is a MUST-SEE at my place every holiday.
These commercials were so surreal. Somewhat like Cheater Cheetah to me; that strange zone of “what am I watching?”. Cool thing to cover and totally unexpected. Love it.

Makes me want them to cover Chester Cheetah in a future video. Especially since he is one of the few mascots that appears to have aged within the ad campaigns back in the day.
One fun and obscure thing you could've mentioned was actually a pinball machine called "Domino's Spectacular Pinball Adventure" that came out in late 2016. The playfield artwork features an image of the Noid on it.
Thank you for making this episode delightfully free of single-frame visual jokes! Avoid the pause button! 🙏 Also that NFT joke was great.
I used to love the commercials as a kid, made me want a Domino's pizza. But there were no locations anywhere near me. Never tried one until the mid-90s when I was around 15 or 16.
I know it's not Domino's but I've invited my brother-in-law over for an 80's night. Pizza Hut pan pizza, playing the first TMNT on NES, and cap off the night with watching Silver Bullet, as we tuck into out sleeping bags in the living room.
I was living about a mile from the Chamblee Domino's when that incident happened. And I was a delivery driver for a different location when they had their 30 minutes or free policy.... people would give us the wrong address (transposed numbers usually) or bad directions, then magically appear by their mailbox right after 30 minutes were up...happened a lot.
The nod to claymation Christmas warms my heart. Loved that…my dad had it recorded in a vhs that we cherished for years
Loved the Will Vinton Christmas Special reference. Sometimes it felt like I was the only one who had seen it growing up.
After watching what amounts to a documentary on The Noid, I now need a Mr. Pizza Head episode.
Terrific video! The Noid is such a wonderful character. I’m a huge fan of Domino’s pizza too. Louis was obviously a truly tragic soul. Thank you for giving his story respect though! My mom is not a Domino’s fan but I will always happily enjoy it myself. I love Noid’s whacky personality!
I forgot all about the Will Vinton Christmas special. I loved that when I was a kid. Awesome callback!
One thing I was reminded of during the course of this video were the "reinforcement flaps" around the three edges of those old Domino's boxes. Definitely not a commonplace feature.
I remember Vinton's "Rip Van Winkle" scaring the hell out of me. Right when he asked "what are you doing here?" and the reflection answered "what are YOU doing here?" and the music changing. Brrrr, claymation can be creeeeeeeepyyyyyyy.
Living in Canada, I didn’t see the Noid ads until prolly well into the campaign. I just thought “who is this fool?” And changed the channel. Thank you for the Noiducation!
I loved the noid, was sad it was only brought back for a brief time. Not many people before then even knew what I was talking about when I said I had some noid figures when I was younger.
Oh my goodness THANK YOU for the stellar shoutout to the Claymation Christmas Celebration! It is an all-time great not only for the visuals but for all of the EXCELLENT music it has! More Christmas songs need groovetastic bass lines!
The worse pizza experience I had was someone had thrown nerds on our pizza one before it cooked (apparently was a teen hanging out in with one of the workers). So randomly you would bite into a burnt sugary bit. Was all the worse as the pizza was excellent until you hit one.

The Noid is one of the the greatest icons of the eighties. The ads were really clever and funny, and I still love them. Now as for Kenneth Noid? Well . . . while suicide itself is as serious as it gets, the idea of a real-life person named Noid obsessing over the character, barging into a Domino's, eating their pizza, and sabotaging their workday could not be more hilarious. It's the sort of darkly ironic development that I'd expect to spring from the mind of Larry David.
Worst pizza experience was during high school when I worked for a now closed local restaurant called Parnelli's Pizza. A customer just sat back and laughed on his porch while his two Dachshunds attacked my ankles and tore two holes in my jeans on my way back to my car after I had delivered his food. That was probably the worst and I regularly delivered to a guy in a mental facility who was in there for killing his father.
I was a hard core Domino's Pizza employee and fan in the 80s and 90s. I still have a ton of Noid toys and merchandise, along with a Domino's letterman's jacket in a box somewhere. I have the video game around somewhere as well.
A lost part of The Noid lore is when Adam West snapped his neck for a gag in Family Guy. The Noid survived the snapping and got landed in the hospital in a coma and on life support. Which explains his long term disappearance.
Thank you so much for this Dan! I asked not that long ago and here it is! And this episode is Totally Awesome!
I used to go to school next to that original Domino’s location. There was a pretty amazing Mexican restaurant in the space when I went there, but now there’s some trendy Burrito shop there. We had a “newer” Domino’s location just down the street that I always assumed was the original location.
The worst, and best pizza experience: On a windy day at a Costco, the pizza box was flipped out of my hands by a stiff breeze. The pizza was ruined, but a friendly stranger and concession staff soon gave me a fresh pepperoni pizza.
A+ video! Such a memorable mascot, was actually thinking about him this week. Had no idea about that guy that had the last name of Noid, what a crazy story. Avoid the Noid!

I delivered for dominos in hs in the 90s. It was a great job. We would give the local police free pizza whenever they wanted, so we could drive as fast as we wanted to make deliveries on time.

Back in the late 90s I found a large Noid plush, around 2 feet tall, at a local thrift. I had that creep for years, and he even inspired one of my earliest profile names, which I still use to this day.
I actually have a huge Noid collection, including some of the original concept sketches of the character's development, and the original coverart for the unreleased Noid in 3-D #3. I love this character!
This is one of my 80s memories that I knew so well yet completely forgot about. Thank you for making this great video.
The Domino's in my town is the worst. The last time I ordered from them, the driver forgot to bring my drinks (2 2-liter bottles of soda). He told me he'd be right back, so I figured he was going to drive to the restaurant and back to give me the drinks I ordered. After about a half hour he still didn't show up, so I called the store. Someone picked up the phone and immediately hung up. I called back, and when I explained the situation the guy on the line acted like it wasn't his problem and he didn't know when the driver would be back with my drinks. After another half hour he still was a no-show, so I called again. Once again someone picked up the receiver and immediately hung up, so I called back and got a message that I was being transferred to the store manager. It was the same guy who didn't think it was his problem. Finally an hour and a half after delivering my food, the driver comes back with 4 20-oz bottles (which doesn't come close to the 4 liters of soda I ordered). I told him to take it back and I wanted a refund, and he told me I'd have to call the restaurant again, so I just took the drinks. I emailed corporate about it, and I never heard back from them. Domino's has become the Noid.
I ordered pizza with a 30’minutes guarantee from a competitor. A pizza was delivered in 25 minutes, but the wrong pizza with toppings family members could not eat after an additional 40 minutes the correct pizza was delivered, but they refused to honour the 30 minute guarantee stating “A pizza was delivered in 30 minutes. If you want the pizza, you will have to pay for it.” We didn’t pay, sent it back, and never ordered delivery from the franchise again.
My family still watches the Claymation Christmas every year, such a great show.
Worst pizza experience was when I bought a large pizza and was driving it back to work. I took a corner and the entire front of the box disassembled, and the pizza slid out, folded, and hit the floor cheese-side down. I spent the next hour washing melted mozzarella off of my carpets.
Kinda surprised the commercial that recently came out (end of 2022 or beginning of 2023?) that features the noid wasn't mentioned near the end. I was surprised to see the noid back since I had only seen the references to him in stuff like the simpsons way back when. I never noticed the newer commercials that came out years ago with Crash Bandicoot. Also this reminded me I have a noid "ACTION FIGURE!" somewhere in storage I got when I was a kid. A rubbery toy that I think I got from a good will store or something.
I saw the preview image, and immediately hoped you'd discuss the genius of Will Vinton's Claymation Christmas. I adore that special!
We had an old vhs tape of Christmas specials recorded off TV and I know I watched the California Raisin special over 1000 times. Good memories.
I was absolutely terrified of the Noid, so much to the point that we couldn’t order large pizza with the mascot on the box. I still remember that fear, many many years later.
I remember Guinan joked to Data once "You're a droid, and I'm annoyed.", and I didn't get how she knew about Domino's commercials. By the way, this was before it was revealed she was living on Earth as early as the 19th century.
This was fascinating! Thank you! ✨🍕✨
My worst pizza experience was in high school when I used my saved up lunch money to buy a Domino's personal pizza that the cafeteria had on Fridays. The small pizza was completely uncooked in the middle, but that wasn't the worst part. The worst part came when I tried to tell the lunch lady. She refused to even look at the pizza and screamed at me, called me names, said I was insulting her "ladies", and threw my pizza to the ground when all I told her was that I wanted a different pizza. It was honestly totally surreal, and funny when I look back now, but I couldn't stomach eating Domino's for years after the incident.

I was so fascinated with claymation was a kid. And maybe just stop motion in general. There was just something so cool about it. Im glad I got to meet Will Vinton at my school.
In a world dominated by Pizza Hut and Godfather's , the Noid was my earliest introduction to Domino's and to this day, I still eat it. ❤
My worst pizza experience was the time I baked a Digiorno and forgot to remove the cardboard circle underneath. 1 smoke filled kitchen later a lesson was learned.
My worst pizza scenario actually occurred at a Domino's. I had my half brother with me and between the two of us, we had enough cash to buy a large pizza to split. I ordered it on the Domino's App, we waited for it to cook, we got notified that t wa done, so we walked over to the shop to pick it up (it was just across the street from the ibrary we're hanging out at)… only to find that someone else had picked up before us! Thankfully, the stuff there were able to bake us a new pie right then and there, at no extra charge. The pizza was still good but we did have to wait for fifteen minutes for the new one to get cooked.
In retrospect, Allstate Insurance's character "Mayhem" is conceptually like Domino's The Noid. I remember playing the NES game back in the day. Hard as nails for sure, and not necessarily "great" but still decent enough for a lot of fun as a kid, and I was eventually able to beat it.
I remember the Noid commercials when I was a kid, but I'd never heard of Noid the man before. Interesting story!
Aww, claymation... The Nightmare Before Christmas was kind of a throwback to the era of claymation. I miss its creepy charm. I had a friend named Dion at the time Noid was popular; I bet every kid named Dion in that era got called Noid. At the time I thought Noid was someone's version of the Trix Bunny gone bad; like if he couldn't have it, no one could. (This was, of course, back in the days when Taco Bell still served black olives.)

Commercials today are just plain annoying (at least we can skip them sometimes). I will catch dad watching old commercials on my phone via KZread (his flip phone doesn't do that). The Noid is one of the many memorable characters from a time worth remembering. Great video Toy Galaxy ♥
It's not what we're talking about, but the Adventures of Mark Twain is nightmare fuel. It tries to be everything to everyone, and as a result, it's saccharine and plodding in some places and terrifying in others. I think they were going for a Return to Oz feel, and we ended up with something that felt like a very well done homemade claymation film by that one weird religious cousin everyone is increasingly concerned about. "Yeah, that's Cousin Jedidiah. He mostly reads, plays with his clay models, and talks about the coming judgement. He asked for a gun for Christmas."
Wow. Not only have I gotten pizza from that Buford Highway Domino's, but my cub scout troop went there to see how pizzas were made when I was in 3rd grade and as a gag the employees locked us in the walk-in-freezer for a few minutes. My 3rd grade year was 1988 to 1989. Thank you for adding some more info to a memorable location of my youth.
I remember this well from when I was a kid. That NES game was actually quite fun for the time period. I think this was around the same time Pizza Hut had a campaign with the Ninja Turtles selling a cassette tape of their music from a tour that went around the US at the time. As a kid that was some awesome times

I just loved the alliteration of how annoyed sounds the/a noid, so avoid being annoyed.
I went with some friends to a midnight Rocky Horror Picture Show viewing one night and this was 2001ish. There was a guy sitting alone wearing a Noid costume and never participated along with the audience. It was unsettling
