Simply put, I have never seen any tv commercial as bizzare as this one. Granted, I live in the US and our commercials tend not tobe as “out there” as other countries, but this one is right square in "What the fuck were they thinking in the development meeting??!!

Hain’t seen 'em. Don’t watch commercials. Feel vaguely dirty even providing the link. But I can’t stand to see people hanging. 😃

WSler:

I agree. BUT I have seen commericals as bizarre (to me) Te new Nike ones with the French/English dialouge.

I guess on both sides,what the developer are thinking is that becase the commericals are s bizarre,that will ge e product into your head. Just like the “Mikes Hard Lemonaide” commeircal thread
