Bridgestone: “Headlights”
This was the funniest commercial I’ve sen all night. There wasn’t quite as long of a buildup as the squirrel commercial earlier in the night, but it was equal to if not funnier.
It started out innocently enough. The driver did a great job avoiding the innocent little deer chilling haphazardly in the street.
Then it got interesting. I couldn’t quite tell what I was looking at, then imagine my surprise when Alice Cooper was in crouching in the middle of the road holding a snake. Okay, that was a little random, but I guess that’s pretty funny…what could possibly be next?Of course the climax came when we saw Richard Simmons doing exercise in the middle of the street. My first instinct was to scream the exact action the driver took. “Punch It!
This commercial would have been glorious if Richard Simmon’s little scream had occurred while his body tumbled through the air like a video game character in a game that employed rag doll physics.
No such luck. We still got a scream, but Richard Simmons survived the experience. I think it was a great commercial nonetheless.
