Great commercial, although my favorite was the Doritos one with the Dad heading out to play football & little girl. With a 4 year old little one as well, I could totally relate! I'm sure other Dads of little girls would agree.
It was nice to once again hear his voice. Paul passed away in 2009. I thought this was an excellent commercial and a great way to use 2 minutes. The Jeep commercial for returning soldiers was another solid use of 2 minutes.
The commercial that won the ad meter was the Clydesdale Commercial from Anheuser Busch. I am sure that hit a soft spot with the woman audience and anyone that loves horse racing even if it was about the Clydesdale and not a thoroughbred. Any horse owner knows that feeling.
"Lassie" the Clydesdale commercial was a good one for shallow crowd (broads).
But the Farmers ad was the better of the two overall. ( i liked both)
People don't understand what its like to own a farm and what a resourceful person you have to be. No sick days or vacations for them.They have to be up 4 or 5 am every fuckin day to tend to the animals. No smokin ciggarettes and watching captain Kangroo
for them. They had a hand in every piece of shit you ate yesterday. And probably most farmers weren't even up to see the commercial last nite because there is no calling in sick with a hangover for them.
