For a whiIe was thinking I must be getting smarter until I realized that it was because by comparison, the TV commercials were getting dumber.
But it seems recently the ad people themselves started to realize how stupid a lot of their output was. I know there are fads, like animal mascots, and disasters like the Erin Esurance ads (which see), but I'm seeing an improvement.
So after al these years of watching TV (and I'm doing more of it since retirement), I have finally decided that the absolute best commercials lately (as if there were an annual Academ Awards for TV ads), are the Bill Swift ads for Flex Seal.
The one where he's a giant who goes around Flex Sealing dams and water towers and whatnot was what tipped the nominations in Flex Seal's favor. The water tower workers gettting doused was hilarious.
Your nomination?
