There a LOT this week, all from the Superbowl. In previous years, we’ve seen slightly more up-front viewing but this list definitely shows how the mass exposure of one of the biggest sporting events translates into online views. I normally only have 2-3 videos. I’ve got over 20 here.
The number 1 viewed video of the week is one of the fan-created Doritos ads. The little twist does make you laugh.
Number 2 in the list is an overview of the Superbowl ads, created before the game and having the advantage of a cute boy adding his own commentary
Then there’s the E-Trade singing baby. Not liking this one much, too much the ‘cute dubbed babies’.
The Pepsi ad Pepsuber is bad, really, really bad but it’s supposed to be. I prefer the previous spoof of MacGyver with Anderson – wonder how much they paid him for this!
We find out what happens to the Tater heads with their Bridgestone tyres (or tires). This made me smile – nicely done.
Another Doritos ad – laughed a lot more at this one
And another E*trade. still not liking them
And another Bridgestone.
Yuk. Cash4Gold. This is a very unusual ad to find in the list. It’s there as it was so out of place in the run up to the game that it got talked about – a lot
A GoDaddy commercial, one of the ones that is causing the planned for controvery, with groups boycotting the domain registration company due to it’s attitude towards women.
Here’s Bud Light, Conan O’Brien and the Swedish commercial. This video is also in again later.
Another Bud Light, my favourites from last year the Clydesdale and the Dalmatian.
And another one from Bud
Teleflora’s ad looked forward to the next big US holiday, Valentine’s day. Cruel talking flowers, that’s the thing
Ahh. Look, my favourite Clydesdale is growing up
Yet more Bud Light. This is a LOT of money they spent on this game, if you reckon $3million for each 30secs.
More Clydesdale
Something new in the list – Kelloggs Frosted Flakes with their community ad.
More GoDaddy and semi-naked women. GoDaddy are one of the few companies that are putting up codes to track success of the ads, with each version having its own discount code to register domain names
Yet another talking baby ad from E*Trade. None of them do it for me.I think it’s the voice over that puts me off.
Last in the list, not a Superbowl ad, is this one for National Carrot Week. Weird, Singing carrots, poor lyrics and no mention that they used to be purple. Strangely fascinating.
