JCC It's Finger Lickin' Good! Best / Worst Advertising Campaigns

Here's the full-length version.

 

I apologize in advance for getting this in your head once again.

 

Seriously? Heinz IS America.

 

Ça va sans dire.

 

This one's probably my favorite:

 

Diggy the song in this man in the moon commercial is lovely.

It brings to mind the powerhouse commercials created by the Ad Agency Volkswagen was using in the late 90s and early 00s.

This was my favorite.



It made the song Pink Moon and Nick Drake well known.

 

Incredible. Is that Weymouth, MA? I grew up in the town next door.

Then, of course, there’s the Cullman Liquidation ad.

 

Some more sports related ads



You might remember this one, @cubman987 (MLB The Show '12)

 

Mother of god ... if Dog the Bounty Hunter was in the used trailer business

Let's go the other way for some mental mouthwash:

 

do PSAs count? asking for a friend

 

Theme from The Last of the Mohicans, great movie and one of film's all-time great scores, IMO.

Legendary comedian & satirist Stan Freberg made some great commercials. Here are three of them:

 

This PSA confused the daylights out of me when I was a kid:

 

Who remembers when Ronald McDonald wasn't as terrifying to parents as Pennywise?



Another holiday classic. Coke certainly was not shy about adding a sing-a-long to their ads.

 

I'll take your Bob Uecker and raise you a Billy and George.

 

Bob wasn't alone there. John Goodman bought him that beer.

 

Yeah but outside of his portrayal of The Babe, he's not affiliated with baseball lol.

 

I thought the "tone poem" commercials they did for TPM were an interesting departure from the usual movie promo spots, and they worked well. Here's the best of them:

 

Since it hasn’t been posted and since it’s kind of the only ad campaign I’ve gone out of my way to rewatch, that probably means I think it’s the best? Sure:


The follow-up is also good but NBC doesn’t let it embed (lest you… advertise on their behalf?). Also there’s some kind of show or something, if you’re into that.
