Here's something we haven't posted on Misce-Looney-ous awhile (no, not another Road Runner commercial... for now): a commercial with Bugs promoting Kool-Aid! From 1966, here's Bugs (sporting a stylish shirt) helping a little boy named Jimmy make some friends by whipping up a batch of ice-cold pre-sweetened Kool-Aid.
Gee, Jimmy is kind of a jerk. Not only does this kid not seem impressed that THE Bugs Bunny appears out of nowhere to visit him, but he doesn't even save Bugs any Kool-Aid and then ditches him at the end of the ad as he runs off with his new friends!
That's the 60's for ya!
ReplyDeleteBTW, refresh my brain. Did Tex Avery worked on this? I know he did most of the Kool-Aid commercials, but I don't know if he did the ones When Bugs is in the live action world though...
