Someone: has a different opinion Literally every fanbase ever:
-
"Do you drink Wilkins?" "No" Commits acts of domestic terrorism
-
I like how their marketing tactic is just "if you don't drink our coffee were gonna make it look like an accident"
-
Him wiping the blade clean while stating "Some learn, some don't" is incredibly raw.
-
Everything happening in 2020 is the result of people not drinking Wilkins Coffee
-
"50s humour was slow paced and extremely safe/innocent"
-
“Some learn, some don’t.” Took me a second to realize he was wiping blood off his sword.
-
I can’t watch a 15 second modern ad, but I just spent 15 minutes of my life watching coffee ads from a company that probably doesn’t even exist anymore.
-
It’s 60 years later and I still drink Wilkins coffee. Because I know he’s watching.
-
Damn some of these are dark... But not as dark as a hot, fresh cup of Wilkins Coffee.
-
"Marketing is 10% persuasion and 90% intimidation" - Wilkins, probably

My mom was a guinea pig for the original Sesame Street as a toddler. It’s one of her earliest memories. Her uncle worked with Jim Henson to design Big Bird, so that’s how this happened. It’s not a shock that we’re big Jim Henson fans in our family. He had such a sick sense of humor and I love it.

"Do you like Wilkens Coffee?" "No" Starts nuclear warfare
-
"Do you drink Wilkins Coffee?" "No" Current Objective: SURVIVE
-
Jim Henson never liked coffee, which is how he came up with all the ideas for these commercials. He was Wontkins and Wilkins was everybody and anybody who tried to make him drink coffee. ☕️
-
I absolutely love these, they’re so unapologetically aggressive
-
Advertising used to be so easy; "DRINK OUR COFFEE OR DIE"
-
If commercials were still like these, I wouldn’t skip them every time.
-
Wilkins Coffee hasn't been available for more than 31 years. We are living in fear of his retribution.
-
“Would you like a cup of Wilkins coffee” “No” gets impaled “You’re insides just don’t feel the same without Wilkins”
