    ditto!

  • KelvTwelve:

    This is the original V8 commercials.

    Did you have a Wilkin’s Coffee today?

    No.

    *shot with a rifle*

    Could’ve had a Wilkins.

  • regalslave:

    that primitive *********** kermit really wants people to buy wilkins coffee

  • pikachu0Z:

    Wilkins:This machine will make you want a cup of Wilkins coffee

    Wontkins:Not me I’ll….

    -Guillotine blade in front of Wontkins’ face-

    Wontkins:Take mine with cream and sugar!

    Funny!

  • CherryTeresaDotCom:

    I love the way the monster’s jaw drops after he’s hit with a club.

  • pikachu0Z:

    Well that’s because those are Jim Henson’s muppets this was before Kermit the Frog and other well known muppets came on the scene

  • 0Kevsta0:

    I love the last one!

  • nduffle:

    These commercials were produced from 1957 – 1961 by a Washington, DC ad agency called Kal, Ehrlich, Merrick. In 1987, I was Asst. Creative Director at Ehrlich-Manes Advertising – an agency that Alvin Ehrlich started after leaving Kal, Ehrlich, Merrick. Wilkins Coffee was still one of Alvin’s accounts and I had the great fortune to work on some NEW Wilkins Coffee commercials that year.

  • Juliaflo:

    This, in my opinion, made the Muppets THE MUPPETS.

  • xquebecker:

    I have a strange craving for coffee now… Strange isn’t it? Whatever happened to Wilkins Coffee anyway?

  • Quadstriker:

    I love the message. Buy Wilkins or die!

  • AvalonianKnight:

    “. . .in fact, if you don’t drink Wilkins Coffee, you’re nowhere” Yikes! Where’s the Wilkens?!

  • NYG4LIFE123:

    1st one is the best. Awesome

  • fergy1982:

    Tim Henson from Distorted View?

  • Linzlee77:

    Ah, classic Henson humor, I love it.

  • ruemiser:

    This looks and sounds like early Jim Henson’s muppetts

  • casaverde100:

    Laughed so hard I spit out my coffee on the computer screen.

  • lsmftymf:

    Now that’s what I call gratuitous violence! I was laughing my head off.

  • 02Ctu2486:

    I wouldn’t admit this if I wasn’t alone but- I really DO like Wilkin’s Coffee!!
    Did you call??
    These two are hilarious, it’s hard to believe that these two were what started the Muppet franchise!! I’m so glad Jim Henson created these guys!!

  • awesomejoshum:

    those are brutal commercials and they are very silly.

  • openair171:

    g’day from australia where everyone drinks coffee 24/7 except me!
    c-o-f-f-e-e,
    coffee is not for me,
    its a drink some people wake up with,
    that it makes them nervous is no myth,
    slaves to a coffee cup,
    they can’t give coffee up!

  • akwaqs:

    Anyone here remember a giant Kermit sitting on top of an equally giant can of Wilkins Coffee on the roof of the Wilkins roasting plant over on Rhode Island Ave., N.E.? The whole neighborhood smelled of roasting coffee beans.
    The plant is long gone. The Metro stations is right above that location today.
