You only have one Beaver, so take care of it!

This is a good place to drop general and weird news, entertainment, and general show prep material that might be interesting to air talent or producers. Hot dog threads ALWAYS welcome.

You only have one Beaver, so take care of it!

Post by CoolBreeze »

The funniest commercial in Australia featuring an American product goes to:

The Beaver Commercial.


The clip features a woman carrying around a puppet beaver under her arm, then visiting the hairdressers and the nail studio with the beaver.

She hands the beaver a present over dinner, which it unwraps to find a box of 'U by Kotex' tampons.

The TVC ends with the tagline: "You've only got one, so for the ultimate care down there, make it U."

I like it. It's pretty clever. Though it would never fly in the States...

It's not a complete original, though. GoDaddy's beaver ad was rejected by FOX for last year's Super Bowl. Click "2008 Exposure" under SB ads.
