• A Famous 'Science Guy' Will Star In Persil's Super Bowl Ad

  • Mr. Clean Makes Super Bowl Ad Debut
    Who doesn't love a man who's handy around the house? If he loves to clean, it's gravy. Mr. Clean is making his Super Bowl debut with a 30-second spot running in the third quarter. The revamped spokesman is mysterious, has a touch of sexy and is a man of no words, like my road-race-running rival at the gym. He doesn't need to talk to win over a woman with a messy house; he cleans -- with sexy music in the background. When the ad ends, Mr. Clean turns into the woman's husband, who she …

  • Schwarzenegger Builds A Wall In Super Bowl Teaser For Mobile Strike
    Mobile Strike is returning to the Super Bowl for the second time, with Arnold Schwarzenegger reprising his role as a military action hero. Last year's Super Bowl spot, "Arnold's Fight," had Schwarzenegger fending off assassins, military and para-military attackers -- and most of them he rode with in an elevator. Awkward. In a 60-second teaser ad, Schwarzenegger is once again fending off his enemies by any means possible. As enemy planes move closer to Schwarzenegger's desert compound, he instructs his men to build a wall, subsequently ordering them to make it "higher." The …

  • King's Hawaiian Launches First Super Bowl Ad
    King's Hawaiian is making its Super Bowl ad debut in the fourth quarter with "False Cabinet." Created by the Levit Agency, the ad plays off the popularity of the brand's rolls. Once you open a bag of them, they're gone. So someone comes up with a quasi-smart way to have a stash of rolls at the ready: a false cabinet behind a normal kitchen cabinet. The only hiccup in this solution is, the rolls fall inside a grandfather clock in another room and this hiding space has been discovered by the young son. The …
  • Audi's Super Bowl Ad Promotes Girl Power, Equal Pay
    Audi's Super Bowl ad, running in the third quarter, sends a powerful message about pay equality. "Daughter" tells the story of a father's inner thoughts as he watches his little girl compete in a downhill cart race. "Do I tell her that despite her education, her drive, her skills, her intelligence that she will automatically be viewed as less than every man she ever meets?" he ponders as his competitive, fierce daughter wins the race. Audi closes with a commitment to equal pay for equal work, because "progress is for everyone." #DriveProgress. Venables Bell …
  • KFC Has Dueling Colonels In Super Bowl Ad
    KFC is running a Super Bowl ad during the fourth quarter that pits two celebrity colonels against one another. In one corner, there's the Georgia Gold Colonel, played by Billy Zane; in another, the Kentucky Buckets Colonel, played by Rob Riggle. The 15-second ad plays off the strategy that KFC cannot have two colonels at the same time. The competitive juices start flowing. Zane introduces his Georgia Gold-flavored chicken while Riggle interrupts, looking to play football. Riggle tries to tackle Zane, but he's gold-plated, so Riggle goes down hard. Teaser ads, longer than the …
