"Animal Commercials for 2016 Continues..."
9 years ago
I have yet another batch of TV adverts - with all sorts of fauna - for this year. I saw most of them in "YouTube", so I thought I'd share the links to each and every one of them with you (in descending order from #5 down, with #1 as the best of this latest bunch)...
5. Volkswagen Golf: "Sleep Talking": In this cute thirty-second commercial, a basset hound and his human owner are both sleeping on the couch, while simultaneously day-dreaming about cruising in the latest model of the VW Golf. The twist ending is predictable, but still funny!

4. Purina®'s Busy Twist'd with Beggin': "Moonwalking Squirrel": In this innovative fifteen-second spot, a CGI squirrel is amazed that a (real) household dog is so engrossed with his latest snack treat, that nothing he does can distract him - including 'bustin'-a-move', a la Michael Jackson!
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VSJPfdSe7h0
3. Raid®: "Fridge": In an all-new series of commercials for the familiar ant-and-roach spray, CGI vermin take the place of the classic cel-animated bugs. (Remember the ones directed by legendary animator 'Tex' Avery? Featuring the voices of Mel Blanc and Paul Frees?) In this thirty-second ad, a female human encounters an ant (almost as big as her), as he grabs a midnight snack from the refrigerator!

2. Raid®: "Shower": As a follow-up to the previous spot, we find a male human's shower getting interrupted by a CGI roach (as big as the perplexed person), who has his own hygiene regimen (gross, though it may be)!

1. Slack: "Rocketship": Last month, when I'd posted "Even More Animal Commercials for 2016" - https://www.furaffinity.net/journal/7507496/ - the Number One spot on that list was a one-minute ad for Slack (which featured a menagerie of CGI anthropomorphic animals in an office). In their newest sixty-second commercial, both humans and funny animals cooperate (as computer animation and 'old school' cel-animation [a la Max Fleischer] merge with each other), when they put together a rocketship, blast off into space, and have a 'close encounter' with aliens in their own spacecraft! Absolutely memorable (and worth sharing the link with others)!

BONUS AD: Listerine®: "Clifford the Dragon": On a recent broadcast of CBS News' Sunday Morning, a moment of history was honored, as May 15th marked the 93th anniversary when Listerine® mouthwash was trademarked registered. Part of the celebration was the airing (for the first time in thirty years) of a classic commercial for the product - animated by Richard ("Who Framed Roger Rabbit") Williams. The advert featured a fire-breathing dragon named 'Clifford', who does whatever it takes to impress the human damsel he tries to date. (It was so cleverly funny, that Williams directed several more Listerine® spots with 'Clifford' - most of which you can also view in "YouTube".)

If you are unable to bring up any of the above commercials in "YouTube", trying retyping the link, dropping the 's' from the 'https' portion. If that doesn't work, just go to the 'Home' page, type out the brand name and title of the adverts in the 'Search' space, and press 'Enter'...
I'll have some more reviews (and links) of more all-new (and classic) animal commercials for your entertainment in June. So, keep your eyes peeled for them!
