Best McDonald's Commercial Ever

Felicia Williams
Posted October 22, 2006

I always knew that McDonald's commercials were targeting kids.

This is why McDonald's gives out toys and has the bright, colorful play gyms...so that you always remember how simple life was at age 5 when you were climbing up the slide, covered in chocolate milkshake.

The younger cuter version of myself used to love going and getting it a Chicken McNugget Happy Meal. The fact that my mom didn't want us to make a habit of it made the whole experience even better. McDonalds was a "special treat" only to be allowed when on the run or when my dad was out of town and my mom didn't want to cook.

As a child, there was never a care in the world when you trusted that clown and dined-in at the "golden arches".

I feel like this commercial capitalizes on the innocences of youth and the simplicity of life as seen by the eyes of naive children. But, I love it anyway. The image of one's inner child crawling out of his or her body is amazing. Plus,kids acting like grown-ups are always pretty darn cute.

Looked like a scene from Alien(s) (III)

They've never topped the commercial where the kids are out ice skating. It usually shows up around Christmas every year.

This one makes me cringe.

i must say, that is one of the better commercials I have seen in a while. very clever...almost Charlie Kaufman clever with a touch of Zach Braff's soundtrack musical sensibilities. Malkovich.

Are those big green juicy healthy apples I see next to the register?
