Does anybody know the context of those people dancing in that McDLT picture? I really want to know. I gave up McDonalds after they didn’t have the Shamrock shakes on St. Patricks Day. I’d probably go back for a McDLT. I like the hot part hot and the cool part cool. Now please answer my question.
Nevermind, Matt. I found ALL the Mac Tonight ads. (the end all, be all of 80s TV commercials) All the 30 second spots, plus some shorter promos he did for Mac Tonight premiums you could get at McDonald’s. These commercials are from 1988.
BTW, I remember that pic from up above with the people dancing for the McDLT. Cool ad, I’d like to see it available for downlaod in the future. Thanks for filling our 80s commercial void, Matt C.
When the clock strikes
Half past six, babe
It’s time to head for
Golden light
It’s a good time
For the great taste
(Dinner) at McDonald’s
It’s Mac Tonight!
C’mon make it Mac Tonight
Best commercial ever

Make it Mac Tonight!

Mac Tonight was cool, like a cross between Max Headroom and the (supposed) satanic Proctor and Gamble logo. And he wore his sunglasses at night! His sunglasses at night! So he could, so he could…..

I remember the Mac Tonight spots… I think I even saw a cup from one at one of those old stores that sells all sorts of junk some years back… hey Matt, if I come across something like that again, should I send it your way?
And I’d love to see the ads again… where’d you find them, Death by Stereo?
Strange to think that a song about a thief, murderer, rapist, and arsonist eventually ended up a jazz standard and then a commercial shilling hamburgers…
