"Latest Animal Commercials"
8 years ago
General
Going through "YouTube", I came across some more commercials with all sorts of fauna - playing a vital role in pushing the product or service. Here's another selection of my latest finds (each one accompanied by a short commentary, and respective "YouTube" links)...
5. Del Toro Auto Insurance: I first saw this series of ads - done in CGI with a matador and an anthropomorphic bull - on some of the Spanish-speaking Cable TV channels in south Florida. But now, the bull speaks English on other channels. Here are two versions of the same commercial, the first one in English and the second one in Spanish...
"I see your phone there!" (:30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=t88Fs_NnoxM
"iVeo ta telefono ahi!" (:30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OgUGtyAhZa4
(BTW, you can check out other Del Toro ads elsewhere in "YouTube".)
4. Lunchables: "Selling Lemonade" (:30): In their newest ad, 'Jacky' the jackalope and 'Platy' the platypus now compete against each other, upping the ante at their respective lemonade stands - concluding (as usual) with the two of them explaining their situation to some kids, who are eating Lunchables...

3. Geico: "Coney Island" (:30): Continuing his trip across America, we find the 'Geico Gecko' in Brooklyn, NY - along a game-filled midway at Coney Island. While promoting the company's auto insurance, our little hero wins a 'game of chance'. His prize: a plush replica of himself!

2. Doritos: In the past, the folks at Frito-Lay held a contest for creative minds to come up with a funny thirty-second Doritos ad, with the finalists airing them during the Super Bowl. Past winning entries include the spot with three dogs dressing up as one tall human, in order to sneak the snack out of a supermarket. Currently, many networks are airing the 'runner-up ads' with animals in them. Here are two you are sure to like:
"Elephant in the Room" (:30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Gf_0TsBPMwM
"Dog Fetch" (:30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OszClgHHrq4
1. Subaru: The folks at the car company decided to change their slogan this year - from "Love: It's what makes a Subaru a Subaru" to "Love is out there". And two of their newest spots feature dogs in them. My favorite commercial, this time around is the 'Butch' ad. Many of you had probably seen the thirty-second version; but "YouTube" has ninety-second (extended) versions, making them incredible mini-stories with their canine characters stealing the scene. Enjoy each one of them:
"Dream Weekend" (1:30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=hRa94Gmx-Ms
"Butch" (1:30): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=St3dTT9ybBk
If I'd made mistakes in any of the "YouTube" links, go to the home page, type out the brand name and the commercial's title, and hit Enter, in order to bring up the ad.
I hope to present one more collection of 2017 animal commercials before year's end. I'm sure there will be some new ones pertaining to the upcoming holidays...
