Commercials have come to the point where they begin showing off their humorous side, but not everyone finds it amusing. Producers try to humor their audience, but it instead creates an even worse commercial.
Television seems to have commercials that have no point or even make any sense. It makes a person think, “Why are they doing what they’re doing?” or maybe “How is that supposed to be funny?”. Some people don’t even stop to realize what the television is advertising because of how focused they are in the content of the commercial.
Commercials like GEICO, Dish Network or State Farm are the the most senseless commercials, yet the creators believe are witty. For some of the GEICO commercials, there is the gecko and sometimes a talking pig. Of course, the pig has a strange way of attracting attention to viewers because of all the things he does.
In State Farm commercials, creators and producers find a way to make it to the everyday life an ordinary person, but in between it all, has some humorous twist to it.
These are things that are to attract people to buy whatever the television is advertising, just because the commercial was pleasing to the eye.
However, commercials should provide some information as to why a certain company is better than the other rather than just making their competition look bad. Commercial creators shouldn’t try to add humor to their advertisements because not everyone can understand it or even find it humorous either.
