TV Commercials

Okay. I must admit that I am the PR guy here and not the advertising guru. We have some talented people on staff here that can make some great commercials.

But I wanted to give some kudos to this AT&T/Cingular commercial:


I laugh because the mom knows what her daughter is saying. I laugh at the expression on the girl’s face because it’s quite authentic. I laugh when the mom tries to say “SNF” at the end. Entertaining commercials that don’t fast forward on my DVR.

Now, let’s contrast that with another one. I really want to ask what the creative team at Saatchi and Saatchi were thinking with this Wendy’s Commercial:


It may be a twist of going against the crowd mentality… but man couldn’t they do it with a better spot? (Of course, they might also point out that I am talking about their spot and spreading the message).

Heck, just read the comments on the YouTube pages for the AT&T and Wendy’s spots.
