Neil Patrick Harris hosted SNL this weekend. I for one am glad the election is over, because SNL’s bias killed the humor. If you can’t poke fun at both sides (with the same amount of disdain), then don’t bother.
Anyways. NPH tore up SNL. The most Boguskyrection worthy skit, of course, was the following.
So, the question is, Good or Bad for BK? Burger King gets made fun of, but they basically got a free two minute commercial during quasi prime time.
Crispin Porter + Bogusky was most assuredly smiling throughout the entire skit. Any agency that declares that the Gates/Seinfeld debacle was only suppose to last two episodes “just to start the conversation” certainly follows the “any news is good news” mantra.
My two pennies? The skit didn’t change opinions. Most people who cared about the spot – whether they be advertising nuts, anti-American-Take-Over-the-World types, or just social commentators – already loved or hated the Whopper Virgin spots. Seeing this skit only confirmed it.
Your thoughts?
