Dan Hesse, You Can Keep Making Commercials Forever
Tonya emailed us a video clip of a cute little piggy with a robot voice complaining about being trapped on hold. We appreciated the rant, but were even more fascinated with the technology that allowed her friend to turn a long, written diatribe into an instant cartoon. You know who needs this? Dan Hesse, shunned pitchman and CEO for Sprint! You'll never have to stop making commercials now. Also, we've decided to make you British.
See Dan's new public-access-style ad below.
Here's Tonya's irate piggy clip that inspired us (warning: cursing).

@Mike8813: I haven't seen a single mobile phone commercial that didn't strongly entice me to send my television a G.W. Bush "Victory Shoe" pronto.
But when I see Sprint's commercials, I consider removing the laces, first.
Ha, that was cute. The Dan Hesse one. The pig one started to wear off a little. It's like "Um, okay, you've already made your point, and for how long do I have to hear that awful music loop?" The Sprint parody was actually pretty funny.
But the Sprint ads don't really bother me too much. In fact, I love them. Remember that post you guys made where you said he's always roaming around the city and in diners because he's looking for his lost customers? And the black and white was because he's sad? Every time I see one of those commercials, I remember that, and it makes me laugh. :)










Lame.
