I like your thinking Britain.
That sense of humour that came up with Wallace and Gromit, Monty Python, and Sean of the Dead surely makes for some good television. I love a bit of dry wit, which Americans can't seem to bring into advertising. Perhaps this is because here in the UK we pay for tv lisenceses, something which initially fried my behind when I had to dish out 40 quid so I wouldn't get arrested for watching tv. But, these permits make for less advertising, and those that are on are frankly less lame. I am tired of American tv trying to sell me a Mercedes, Coors Lite, or tempting me to watch Fox Shown-down News (America versus evil in the middle east). Blah. The British do what I would call 'diet advertising', or 'commercial lite'. Cheer to you Britain, for making my television viewing less irritating. Cravendale Milk has caught onto this 'hey, if I make you smile, you'll buy my product' line of thinking. When I first saw the add, I thought..."what?" That confusion broke into a smile and now everytime this little animation comes on the entire flat joins in the dance for the last glass.
