They cut out the part when she goes to the bathroom and Mr. T scares her turds into flushing themselves.

And yes, any Mr. T ad will always get the “awesome” tag.

I love the new Gatorade spots  featuring Peyton Manning, Dwight Howard, Usain Bolt, and other mega-athletes for Gatorade’s new G Series product line. The ad combines the right visual imagery with just the right hook: A curiously vintage ragtime bopper that steadily builds crescendo. It isn’t an oldie, however; it was written by R& B producer David Banner and sung by Kermit Quinn specifically for the campaign. Download the track below.

Even though Gatorade has been struggling, these ads by TBWA/Chiat/Day might help them get back on the right track. It better; PepsiCo has dubbed the G Series “the biggest spend for a launch in our history.” That’s saying a lot from a company that has launched an incredible number of worldwide brands.

American Express hits hard with a star-studded cast to talk about The Members Project, a charitable initiative where folks can vote on a cause they believe in. But this isn’t your normal “plea ad.” For one thing, it’s not complete crap.
