Hampster Power in the House!

No, I'm not referring to the hampsters alleged to be powering T Mobile's 3G network. These are the hip hampsters from the brilliant Kia Soul commercial. The ad agency that came up with the concept for this commercial rates fairly high in my book. Check it out:



Now if only that ugly green car was a cool as the advertising... I'm just saying...

  1. I actually like this vehicle... the body style is really intriguing for some reason.

    but the rapping hamsters freaked me out somehow...

    I guess i'd prefer a jazz singing cat or a beagle playing the concert piano.

  2. Ugh, I actually strongly dislike this commercial! haha. Maybe it's because they constantly showed it on ESPN and ABC during the NBA finals.

  3. @Charles: Thanks for checking out my blog and for your comment... Sorry to have frightened you with the hip hop hampsters. So, you are more into cat in the hat or snoopy types? ;)

    @Steve G: I find the commercial to be rather fun but totally get it if you had to endure repeated viewings of it during the finals. I promise to work on something a bit more to your liking this week!

  6. @Donda: It must be a chick thing as the guys don't seem to enjoy it as much as us ladies!

    @Steve G: But of course!!

  7. No cat in the hat also freaks me out.... I was thinking... Garfield sings along with the Miles Davis Quintet, and.... snoopy sounds good he can be the main act....
