You've probably seen this one making the rounds the last couple of months.
State Farm's latest celebrity endorser is none other than Scooby-Doo and friends, and just in time, too, since their next DTV DVD, co-starring the superstars & divas of the WWE, is due in another few weeks.
This shortie pays homage to the original series, which marks its 45th anniversary this year.
I only saw this about a week ago - although it was uploaded back in October. I find it a great sendup to the show as well as the recent State Farm ads featuring insurance agents popping in to the rescue of their clients.
ReplyDeleteI found two other clips on YT which I have yet to see on TV but are also pretty good.
I found at least one more, which I'll check into, this one with at least Shaggy.
ReplyDeleteWonder if the ad agency cleared it with WB, though. I had noted that there were issues between WB & GEICO, which is why they didn't do another Looney Tunes ad after Foghorn Leghorn & Henery Hawk appeared in one, following the infamous Elmer Fudd ad.
ReplyDeleteThe other State Farm SD ad is the one in which Scooby needs to talk to a live representative. His voice unable to be picked up by the automated system!
If this toon is any indicator, the Scrappy hate may finally be over. Scrappy appears in a photo on Scooby's desk!
Scooby has a desk? Only he & Snoopy could get away with that....
