Holiday Commercials
Now I am a huge fan of creative commercials. Especially ones that involve music and stuff like that. BUT... These new Old Navy commercials have got to stop! The ones where there are a group of kids in the supermarket is SOOOO BAD! If I were in that supermarket produce section with them I would start throwing tomatoes! SOOO AWFUL AND NOT EVEN FUNNY! MAKE IT STOP!!!
On a side note... The gap commercials are quite entertaining and the new one has my man JOSH DUHAMEL in it with Sara Jessica Parker. HE is so hot! He is cheating on me now tho with Fergie from the Black Eyed Peas... TRAMP! She doesn't realize he is my man. I mean we did take pictures together and everything! LOL
How about the new Pepsi SPICE??? I keep seeing commercials for it but havent seen it in the stores. WHO WOULD WANT SPICE IN THEIR PEPSI??? That sounds worse than the Turkey flavored Jones Soda that came out last year. Tasted like gravy soda! YUCK! At what point do novelties go too far??? Who out there is still going to buy a Pepsi Spice even though they know they are going to hate it? I probably will... WHAT AN IRONY.
How 'bout Target? I think their holiday commercials are pretty fun. They play Jingle Bells in two different beats while promoting products with a certain theme. Pretty entertaining. I think I like most of their commercials in general too.
Anyone else out there have any comments on commercials playing now???

The Old Navy commercials are interesting. Old Navy has always utilized what I call the "traffic wreck" philosophy of advertising. Put the most bizarre and obscure scenes in a commercial you can, and people can't stop watching. I mean, I think it's the worst commercials ever, but when they come on I can NOT change the channel. "The holiday's will hit you... LIKE A BRICK!" ha. OK, well, that part I think is funny. The "Tiny Tim" -type kid annoys me though.
OK, now, coming back to a previous blog about commercials about drugs you have no idea what they're for. Make a game out of it. Have you seen the ones with Della Reese... for a drug called Avandia. It's her and a bunch of singers around a piano. She's talking about eating right and taking Avandia every day... the other people in the commercial are also kinda bigger people, so I figure it MUST be some sort of weight-loss / cholesterol control / who knows what drug. I just looked it up online... WRONG! It's a drug for people with Diabetes! I guess that kinda makes sense, but HOW THE HELL AM I SUPPOSED TO FIGURE THAT OUT FROM THE COMMERCIAL!? Honestly. I feel like I've been inappropriately touched by an angel. ;-)
