I wonder how much these type of funny commercials actually help to sell their product, i think people would like to see them more than they like to buy what they are trying to sell.
Jace King
This fucker would be in the far right and bottom.
The fat one would be in the top left.
Gabriel Diaz
Oh no
Elijah Rodriguez
I'm not the coffee type
Ryder Brooks
I’m sure I’d like it if I could ever try it.
Sadly, I lack the necessary temporal displacement devices to ever indulge in such brands.
It is truly, truly disheartening.

This was back in the infancy of TV advertising. They only had about 15 seconds to shill their product, so you can bet they wanted to be as memorable as possible.
Leo Campbell
ITS MY FAVORITE! *nervous gulp*
Lucas Peterson
Is Wilkins a brand that's still around?
If so, they should bring these commercials back. What are some set ups/scenarios that they could do?

They actually rolled with that

Quite a bit, as it turns out.
>In a press release issued February 19, 1959, Senator John Marshall Butler (R-MD) strongly criticized the quality of broadcast television, but praised the Wilkins ads: "The Maryland Senator, an opponent of pay television, called on the networks and individual stations to re-examine their programming and advertising policies at once to provide the public with better television fare. He said that the Senate Commerce Committee, of which he is a member, will explore the entire situation... As to advertising, it insults the intelligence of the viewer. It is geared at know-nothings. As far as I am concerned, if I hear 'a thinking-man's filter and a smoking-man's taste,' I promptly switch to another channel. About the only clever advertising on the air today is 'Wilkins and Wontkins'. It pleases rather than irritates television audiences, and I am happy to learn that this series is bringing increased sales to the sponsor."
>The Senator's approval was echoed in a 1965 article in the Washington, D.C. Evening Star, which reported the findings of a poll in the D.C. area about television commercials: "John H. Wilkins, Jr., of the Wilkins Coffee Company, can be proud of the overwhelming endorsement of Washington area viewers of his Muppet TV spots. The Wilkins commercials, which he conceived, are easily the favorite of voters in this area."
