It was a different time.

Every generation looks back on the previous ones and laughs at the dumb things people thought and did. Maybe in 50 years, our grandchildren will see our commercials and say, “How could they not have known that Snuggies were slowly poisoning us??”

That’s how most people react when they see black-and-white television ads where doctors are recommending particular brands of cigarettes. Yeah it’s weird. The Fine Bros. sat some teens down to watch a series of old cigarette commercials and gauged their reactions.

Let’s just say their responses to the ads are more thoughtful than you might’ve expected.
