I don't get the Subway (sandwiches) commercials.

[trof]

Grown ups speaking in little kid's voices.
Am I missing the point?

1. Crappy sandwiches, crappy commercials...

that's all I can figure.

Now the old Quiznos- there were some commercials!

3. I did like Quiznos.

The one in our town went out of business.

8. Ours did too. Wonder if the company is in trouble.

They put it almost next door to the Subway and it never had any customers. Poor location.

5. OK, my take on it...

I've heard a couple of those commercials on the radio where they use adult voices in place of the kid voices. Exact same commercials, just with adults.

Not the same effect.

Especially the one with the four people sitting on the park bench and the one lady is eating an avocado one (super food) and the others are fantasizing about what super powers it might give them.

The lady eating it has a hissy fit and says it's HERS.

The others reply with "super stingy", "super uncalled for", etc.

That commercial, in adult voices, is just not the same.

Anyway, I think the commercials are cute.

6. I don't like the commericals either.

Another silly commerical.

One adult stealing another adult's sandwich and talking like a child.


Just silly.

10. Another successful commercial, El. You are repeating it on teh internets.

Mission accomplished for the ad men!

11. And here is something for you that is about as appropriate for this thread as your post:

[madinmaryland]

12. That comment was even less appropriate than this one...

[madinmaryland]

9. Regardless of whether you get the commercial, the fact you remember it and are talking

about it on teh internets means the commercial is a success.

All they want is for you to remember the commercial and that it was for company "X". Mission accomplished!!!

14. Doesn't make me want a Subway sandwich.

So how is it a success if it doesn't sell sandwiches?

13. They're like GD

but seriously toned down.
