Past and Present Commercials

Over the years since we have had television, several commercials have come across the screen that make us, give the television a weird look or just shrug. If you ask your parents or even grandparents about the commercials they saw, allot of them would probably remember commercials trying to sell cigarettes. I found a few online and I find them very funny because now days they don't advertise cigarettes anymore. I have found a video of the children show 'The Flintstones' smoking and saying how good it is. If they did it now days, several parents would be ferious and would try to banned the commercial and it would make the news as well.

Now for some of the present commercials that might make you raise a brow. We have seen all kinds of commercials on th interent and on the tv. Well when I get bored, I usaully go on Youtube and watch videos, I came across this ad and had too watch it several times for it to make since. It's not in English, but I will tell you what its about so you get it. The commerical is in German or French, and they are tryng to sell orange juice, but they way that show it, makes you go...'what? I got the version that was voiced over luckily. If they showed this commercial during the 50's it would cause a riot. Many people would think is to sexual or weird to have on televison because there is talking animals. Plus at the end of the video there is a gay or homosexual scene, which many people did not approve of.

As you can see many things have changed since televison came along and if they played what they advertised back then, there would be an issue, and vise versa if we played our commercials back then. Of course not all commercials did this, not instead of smoking, we advertise drinking. I think most of the commercials we have are funny make no sense like the two above.
