The latest DirectTV commercial has to be one of the best. I can’t help but laugh everytime that guy gets up out of his chair declaring “It’s ME!!! Goin’ to Barbados folks…”
And it’s the little things that make it work: the subtle sideways glancing of everyone as they try to figure out who won’t be there next week, the high-five he gets once he gets up from his chair, the incredulous look on the CEO’s face when the guy gets up, even the rest of his parting line as he leaves stating “Good luck with that DirectTV thing. Sounds hard.”
Most amazingly, at least for recent commercials, is I remember who the ad is for.
