RadioGaGa 162 Report post Posted January 22, 2010 Anyone have a fave (current or all time) commercial?The new A&W spot with the helium balloons is hilarius. It's childish...but the phrase "2 for 4 Momma burger" said over and over again with a 'helium' voice makes me laugh everytime. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RadioGaGa 162 Report post Posted January 22, 2010 Any commercial that isn't Canadian. They have the production value of a 6th grade video essay.That's way to general a statement. There is an agency in Toronto called "Pirate Radio & Television" that does some amazing work. Mostly radio....but also some TV. There will be crap everyere...just like there will be good stuff. With the dish now...I see some American stuff that is hardly top notch. Small furniture stores and car dealerships and restaurants that look like they were filmed on camcorders with no budget.But that arguement is not the point of this...I want to laugh at good commericals...post or describe them.

The reason why the spots in Canada are crap, is because the CRT or whatever that agency is called is over the top restrictive. I guess that follows suit in pretty much every other area of life over here. I have a friend who works for a major ad agency here in TO and I couldn't believe how intrusive the government was. She's about to hop ship across the lake so she can have some artistic freedom. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes SB ads are known for their humour...but in the last few years...ther are 3-4 really good ones...where there used to be 10 or more that were fantastic. Some are just really basic spots...it's just about paying for the the placement (after coin toss, prior to kickoff, right after HT). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
