Commonwealth Bank TV Ads 2008 Series – What the?

There’s more…the Commonwealth Bank and/or its agency have released a series of interviews with the characters in their new TV Campaign (see below).

Also, our very own Aussie advertising icon John Singleton has been quoted in The Australian newspaper:

"In this climate where people are struggling, interest rates are up, there is a credit crunch on, there is half a crash, you have people hiring Yanks to treat the Commonwealth Bank like a joke," Mr Singleton said.

"It is absolutely unforgiveable.

I really like this Singo one:

"They had to go all the way to America for this?"

"Mate, there are lots of really bad agencies in Australia. You don’t have to go to America to get shit."

"It is the worst thing I have seen in a long, long time, and I have seen a lot of crap. It is up there with the worst I have ever seen."

Are we being set-up for a really bad Borat Joke?

Lets wait and see…but first check out the Agency interviews:)
