Wow, and I thought the USA "Who-Hoo" ads were cutting edge marketing.

Adding to my previous comment and having just watched the "sleep" ad I would not mind betting these don't make it to UK TV without major changes, have they seen any airtime yet?
Some bloke with an apparent "hard-on" gesticulating at the camera and faking an orgasm shouting "testify" is in my opinion neither particulary funny or good for the Vonage "brand".
If they do make airplay I bet the advertising authority get lots of complaints.
for those of you who are into marketing, these are not tv commercials. they are virals and as such are not intended for television.
they are really funny--typical of the best of monty python and benny hill.
this british humour at its best. in fact i read one of the marketing magazines a couple of weeks ago and it has already been awarded as one of the best viral campaigns of the year.
the awards will come--just like they did for monty python in life of brian etc
As for the "TV ads" - there are none on the "testifiable" Vonage website - I can't believe they would meet the Advertising Standards Authority requirements - erections, fun of the disabled - both not allowed.
I think the British would find it acceptable in a TV comedy show. Not in an ad. I'd be amused to be proven wrong! And I think the ads are fun.
