Kids today don’t know HOW MANY long distance and collect call ads we had to watch every day.

Judging from the amount of commercials you'd think our biggest challenge surviving back then was saving a dollar on our phone bills.

This particular era was the peak of them however. Go back to the mid-90s and (especially) prior and you do not see nearly as many.

Ah yes, Sci-Fi channel commercials. This takes me back. I used to watch the Sci-Fi channel in the late 90s and up to mid 2000s. Thanks again for the nostalgia, Dave!

I see you all were born in 84, 79, and 92, so that means you all can remember Blockbuster, Hollywood Video, RadioShack, Circuit City, Eckerd Pharmacy, Toys R Us, K.B Toys, and Discovery Zone, God I miss the 90s 🌙🌃🌌🏠📺📼🎮🧎😌🥲

The final year of the 90’s😢😢😢 I am glad I got to experience it as teen and early 20’s 🙏📼📺🧈

Ah, yes, the late 90s, back when it sometimes seemed like a lot of channels were almost completely funded by water filtration systems, dandruff shampoo and long-distance calling services. It's moments like this that make me miss that part of my life almost as much as I'm glad it's over now. Thanks for another awesome vid, Dave!

so many great things happening in this segment! The movie Dead Again, Christopher Lloyd, a young Jeff Goldblum. 1999 was pretty good, but I think this is the last year it was TRULY GOOD.

Who remember these Horror films, The Fear, Milo, Pinocchio's Revenge, Brain Scan, The Willies, it's Alive, 1 2 and 3, The Ice Cream Man, Uncle Sam or Basket Case, 1 2 and 3 😃

Man after a long day I needed this pure nostalgia rush! Great stuff!

MST3K and Stone Cold and D'Lo that's all this vid needed lol

I remember all of these promos and commercials. I worked with Fred Willard a few years later on a WB show. He is the one on 10-10-345 commercial. Fred, was humble and down to earth. RIP.

Dave is the only one that can bring humanity together

great set, Dave! watching these ads is like looking at another world. man! we definitely live in a different world! in that Mac ad jeff goldblum claimed only 20 percent of the public were on the internet. that's sounds about right for 1999. there were still lots of people who thought the internet was a passing fad. like i said, these commercials are documents from a different era. thanks for showing them!

was that christopher lloyd and conchata farrell in the collect commercial? awesome!

I never thought when I was a kid I would be watching commute same commercials I hated for entertainment as an adult!

The last of the 90s. Good ol'days 👍

Man it’s funny watching that Apple commercials with the huge monitors. How many of those do you think got blown up, shot or are buried in fields somewhere?

Thank you for always providing us with the good stuff Dave. Though I never watched the sci-fi channel back then, I still get the vibes of that era. Late 90s felt like we were on the edge of the future. While still being very much itself. I miss the little of the simpler times we still had left. When the internet didn't completely overtake everything.

8:00 I have to admit, that sounds like a pretty good line-up, "Farscape", "Sliders", I think that sounds like some great Friday night viewing!

Man Dave was still alive. I miss Dave aka Wendys commercials

Driving Excitement? I loved seeing the Grand Am commercial. I still have my 2004 Grand Am GT coupe. Hard to think that 10 years later Pontiac would be gone!😥 Hello from Phoenix Arizona!🔥

Great throw back to the 90’s! Back when watching mystery science theater 3000 was prime watching ! Great up load as always Dave! Also if your a Arrested Development fan 12:48 Tony Hale aka Buster Bluth ! Stay Retro Dave! 📼🍺😎

Lmao at the Baked Ruffles 😂

Ahh yes the good old days of the Sci-Fi channel before it got turned into trash in the late 00's.

absolutely love the scifi commercials

I want the whopper value meal again today. Back when it was not expensive to buy a whopper value meal at Burger King.

Love the channel. Wish we had dates though. Anyways, no complaints. Thanks for content.

So many 10-10 commercials! 🤣

As a non American, why are there different 10 - 10 phone(?) numbers for collect calls? How did people chose what number to use to be able to save on costs?

One of my favorite things is seeing how many products and services are now just one of many features found on our smartphones. Shows, long distance calling, photos, watches. It's crazy. I am currently using a product that makes all of those companies and their wares worthless.

I have my own idea that I got from that Order of Cosmic Champions book, but it's about 4 kids that team up with iconic character from the 90s

I used to play BUGDOM on that iMac DV 2000 (1:07)

I can get a set of photos on floppy disc or the internet? Who would have figured! Thanks for the memories!

Man, I remember seeing those Macs everywhere for a hot minute. Can't remember a Hot Pocket that wasn't molten lead on the ends and half thawed in the middle. Definitely saw that Tide ad many a time as a kid. I always thought those Miracle Whip ads from this period were beyond stupid. I must've blocked out how omnipresent those 10-10-whatever ads were.

1:51 me when the sorority girls come to the beach in July. Same sound effect, too.

12:47 So that's what buster on arrested development was referencing???

How did I totally miss seeing a commercial with The Reverend Jim "Iggy" Ignatowski in 1999??? Closing in on the last years of tolerable commercials.

Did Jeff Goldblum say that only 20% or less of the population was on the internet? Wow, that really was a long time ago.

Who was the lady at 3:42, she sounded so familiar.

I've been trying to find this chicken selects commercial from the 2000s where the guys stomach growls if he doesn't get his chicken selects. Do you know where I can find that one?

1:20 - “that would be like changing my sex or my political affiliation” Oh, if only he knew if the inglorious future that would await him regarding those very issues…

157.527% Price increase on the chalupa, accounting for inflation :D

White computers we would chat with someone on the computer. We had internet, but not that internet that we have now.

Steve Austin with DLo brown on that commercial, it was a pretty good commercial of them. Steve Austin was getting wrestling on its feet. Wrestling today is lame.

I honestly have to get out of here...

You perform a valuable service, Dave, in temporarily removing me from our shitty current era and reminding me of lighthearted fun that doesn't have ten layers of irony and political correctness smeared all over it.
