Coming up next is some Cap’n Crunch cartoon commercials. Cap’n Crunch is a corn and oat breakfast cereal manufactured since 1963 by Quaker oats Company a subsidiary of PepsiCo since 2001.
The character was created by Allan Burns, who became known for co-creating The Munsters and The Mary Tyler Moore Show.[10] The commercials themselves were originally produced by Jay Ward Productions. Quaker Oats had a marketing plan for Cap'n Crunch, before it had developed the cereal.[8] The product line is heralded by a cartoon mascot named Cap'n Crunch.[11] Cap'n Crunch is depicted as a late 18th-century naval captain, an elderly gentleman with white eyebrows and a white moustache, who wears a Revolutionary-style naval uniform: a bicorne hat emblazoned with a "C" and a gold-epauletted blue coat with gold bars on the sleeves.
The animated television commercials featured the adventures of Cap'n Crunch commanding the "good ship" Guppy on its sea voyages accompanied by his canine first mate Seadog and loyal crew of sailor children named Alfie, Dave, Brunhilde, and Carlyle. Jean LaFoote, "The Barefoot Pirate", often attacked the Guppy in order to steal its cargo of Cap'n Crunch cereal.
So coming up next I'll be sharing some of the animated television Cap’n Crunch commercials.
