Four millions views on YouTube and counting, this TVC is just hilarious. My favourite part is the balloon scratching. I love everything about it — the straight-laced acting (btw, those kids deserve an Oscar), the music (Don’t Stop The Rock by Freestyle) and of course, the eyebrow twitching (of which, together with millions, I tried it with the music).

So how does this sell Cadbury chocolates?  Who cares.

Wtf!

I don’t get it.  I doubt anyone does.  In fact, I suspect this latest mocca.com tvc series was intentionally done to baffle viewers.  So as to pique people’s curiousity, to create a buzz of wonderment, and to get many people as possible to talk about…

I like this the first time I saw it.  It was engaging, funny and brought a tear to my eye (no, I wasn’t sobbing, just welled up a  little).  So, it was disheartening to learn later than Yasmin Ahmad, the director, admitted to ripping a large chunk from Good Will Hunting, right down to the fart jokes.  It did take the shine away a little.  But nevertheless, upon consideration, it was quite brave of MCYS (the client) and Ahmad to use a funeral setting as a public announcement ad for marriage.

Some people hated it but quite a big number resonated with it.  Some say the acting was bad.  I suspect these critics could be closet actors.  Whatever it is, I must congratulate MCYS on cross-platforming the TVC very well — onto facebook, a “beatifully imperfect” couple contest, and into print.

This TVC series is arguably the best cod liver oil ad ever.  The funny faces, the overacting, and the spastic thumbs-up dancing definitely appeal to kids.  Parents of sickly kids all over Singapore are grateful to have an ad advocating the joy and benefits of taking a hard-to-swollow health supplement.  In fact, only a few days ago I resorted to the thumbs-up dance to coax my six year-old to not only take her cod liver oil but her anti-depressants as well.  Two thumbs up!!
