Best '90s Commercials

These '90s Commercials Are All That (and a Bag of Chips)

Sure, we all had our favorite shows growing up — Rugrats, anyone? — but some of the best things to come out of '90s TV were the commercials. How could we ever forget phrases like "Ch-ch-ch-chia" and "The colors, Duke. The colors!"? It's easy to get lost for hours surfing the web for '90s advertising gold, which is what we've happily agonizingly done to bring you the best of the best, a few even starring names like Aaron Paul and Leighton Meester. Ahead, check out some of the greatest commercials the world has ever seen. Yeah, they're that good.

Start
‪Kooshlings‬

‪Danielle‬ Fishel (aka Topanga Lawrence), ‪Jodie Sweetin‬ (Stephanie Tanner), and ‪Larisa Oleynik ‬(Alex Mack) in one commercial? If that '90s dream team wasn't enough to make you want those stringy creatures, we don't know what was.

1 / 16
Ring Pop

Why yes, every girl did dream of being asked to wear a boy's Ring Pop — and declaring "I love the way my ring tastes" before giving it a lick.

2 / 16
Skip It

Raise your hand if Skip It was how you got your exercise for the day. And the very best thing of all? The counter on that ball.

3 / 16
Corn Pops

Wait, is that? Yep, it's Aaron Paul weirdly resembling his Breaking Bad character with his drug-like addiction to Corn Pops.

4 / 16
Nickelodeon Gak

Besides making funny fart noises, you could always squish and pump the ooey stuff to the disgust of this librarian-looking lady.

6 / 16
Pog

This semicreepy commercial with phrases like "Hide your parents" didn't scare anyone off. Instead, we bought pogs upon pogs upon pogs.

6 / 16
Push Pop

If there's one commercial that just screams "'90s," consider it this one. Fresh Prince-style hats? Check. Push Pops on all five fingers? Obviously.

7 / 16
Bubble Tape

Gotta hand it to this Bubble Tape commercial for making us youngsters feel like rebels up against principals and bus drivers. When else would six feet of gum feel so cool?

8 / 16
Chia Pet

Props to Chia for making what's arguably the best time lapse ever — and for making us want to shout "Ch-ch-ch-chia!" from the rooftops.

9 / 16
Super Soaker

The superimportant moral lesson from this commercial? If you're ever rejected by the cool kids, get revenge by spraying them with your Super Soaker.

11 / 16
Troll Kids

Anyone else find this Troll commercial full of adorable faces and bodies "so soft, you can't stop hugging" uncomfortable?

11 / 16
Gushers

A lunch box wasn't a lunch box without some Gushers, are we right? Especially this sour kind that left our faces in a twist.

12 / 16
Popsicle

Hands down, one of the best lines to come out of the '90s is straight from this Lick-a-Color Popsicle commercial: "The colors, Duke. The colors!"

13 / 16
Polly Pocket

It didn't matter that we lost Polly Pocket pieces left and right. We still wanted to have an after-school miniature-doll playdate like these girls.

14 / 16
Talkboy

Thanks to this commercial, silly little brothers everywhere were using Talkboys to break up make-out sessions.

15 / 16
Tamagotchi

Sure, this commercial is for the Angel version of our favorite Tamagotchi pets, but it's still all about feeding and taking care of our little ones. Bonus: it features a very young Leighton Meester.
