Different TV Ads - Same People

[cabinetman]

As I watch TV I wonder if those companies are running out of people to put in their ads. If the ad is supposed to make the viewer either buy or believe the hoopla about the product or service, they do just the opposite with me. Who are they trying to kid. One ad is for the kid who found someone to pay for his college - the Army. Well, his mother in the ad got caught outside by an interviewer on why she and her husband (all of a sudden she has a husband) are spending so much for cell phone service, or internet or something.

Then there's the guy who is teaching his daughter how to put peanut butter on bread, and then in another ad he is propane.

But my all time favorite to vomit to is the make money fast ad with the pasty blonde who has been in a couple of those "Something Biz.com" ads who is yelping about making $4000 a month. The guy in the convertible should learn how to say $150.000.

Those ads where a guy is standing next to a new Mercedes in front of a mansion talking about how much money he is making, the last film take made, there was probably a homeowner in the background yelling "Get away from my car, and get off my property".

While the ads may or may not get you to buy their product, they obviously have grabbed your attention sufficiently so that you remember the actors/actresses from one to another.

My BIL has been in the adult beverage sales business for 30 years or so and he loves watching the ads for his and the competitors' products. Beer ads are some of the very best there are, but he is the first to admit that not many actually get you running off to the local convenience store to pick up a 6 pack. They do, however serve the purpose of putting their brand's name in your mind so when you do want a 6 pack you just might be tempted to pick up one of theirs instead of your normal brand.

Probably a good thing though, since they usually run beer ads during times when most folks have already put away a few beers. :)

They only do that in Florida. Every place else it's different people.

That's 'cause there's only six people in Florida who aren't retired...

The voice overs get me sometimes . . . last night I heard a Dunkin' Donuts ad with their new 'America Runs on Dunkin' tagline . . . the voice over is done by, of all people, John Goodman . . . not the image I want in my head when thinking about whether I should trat myself to a sausage cheese and egg bagel. ;)
