wawasworld: Advertising Magic

dvYes, it's 5:26 Sunday morning. I still haven't gone to bed yet. Well, anyways, Wawasworld has been enjoying the NBA playoffs, which means the top notch coverage of Kenny Smith, Charles Barkley and Ernie Johnson on TNT. However, it also means wacky TNT commercials! Wha, huh? Wacky TNT commercials? Indeed. As Adam Sandler once said on Saturday Night Live: "Who are the ad wizards who came up with this one???" Well, anyways, one of these wacky commercials was Magic Johnson pushing Law and Order (Hmmmm . . . as if we couldn't figure that L&O was on TNT, considering it's the only thing they show other then NBA basketball . . . and the Shawshank Redemption).

So here's how the commerical goes:

"You know, I love the NBA Playoffs. But you know what I love just as much . . . Dead people! Watch Law and Order on TNT!"

You're kidding me, right? That's what they came up with? That's goddamn brilliant!

Well, Wawasworld has some ideas for some other shows on TV:

Zach Braff, star of NBC's "Scrubs":
"You know, I love medical sitcoms, but you know what I love just as much? Fat chicks! Watch Facts of Life on Nick at Nite!"

Pete Rose, former baseball superstar:
"While you know I don't "gamble" anymore, no one says I still can't watch it! Watch Celebrity Poker on Bravo. I got my money on Mimi Rogers."

Matthew Perry of "Friends" fame:
"While you know I love the ensemble sitcom more then anything, I still have to make time once a week for my other great love: Really bad acting! Watch "Joey" only on NBC"

Carson Kressley of "Queer Eye for the Straight Guy":
"You may know me from my love of Makeovers, but I'm not sure if you my second great love: Large Mens Asses. Watch Dennis Franz on NYPD Blue . . . only on TNT!"
