Commercials, good and bad.....
Jun. 20th, 2006 09:34 pmWhile watching the NHL playoffs the past few weeks, along with the Weather Channel, I've seen my share of commercials. Here are some of my favorites, and least favorites.
Favorites:
1) I love the one for the Dodge Caliber with the fairy. It flies around, turning skyscrapers and locomotives into toy counterparts. But it fails at transforming the Dodge Caliber. Eventually it gets a blast of its own magick. And when some butch guy makes fun on her, he gets transformed into some yuppie wearing a tennis outfit and walking three fouffy dogs. "Oh!" Don't mess with the fey!
2) The "Discover Boating" commercial. A family waves at everyone. People shun them or hide from them....until they're on their boat. Then everyone waves back.
3) K9 Advantix "They're Ain't No Bugs On Me", featuring a singing yellow Labrador retriever puppy at summer camp. So cuuuuute! (The tune is 'It Ain't Gonna Rain No' Mo'", made famous in the 1920s.
Least favorites:
1) Head-On. Their 10-second spot says only "HEAD-ON! Apply directly to the forehead." three times. What the hell is it -- a sex aid? I had to go to the store to find it, and learn it's a headache remedy.
2) Bud Light. The one where the crew tries to save the fridge with Bud Light, only to see it crash through the lifeboats. This tells me loud and clear: "Morons Drink Our Beer."
3) KFC Bowls. The guy who asks for the stuff in layers, the clerk who responds with more layers, and the guy says, "You've known me all my life!" If any KFC clerk encountered this guy, they'd think he was creepy.
What are your favorites and least favorites?
