If your dream has always been to see multiple Grammy winner Beyonce, the blue Twitter bird, Tay Zonday and Gary Brolsma (aka the Numa Numa Guy), er, perform together, then you need look no further than the VIZIO commercial that aired during the Super Bowl yesterday.
In the meme-filled ad, Bey is gyrating around in a red dress while singing her hit “Sweet Dreams” when a giant mechanical arm whisks her and the rest of the “Best Of The Internet” off—presumably collecting them so you can watch on your HDTV. Of course, we just bought a Panasonic, so, sorry, VIZIO—maybe in about ten more years. Until then, we’ll just watch the clip below.
Does your Panasonic have apps? It's obvious this is where everything is going…
I like what Vizio is up to. They know it's all about “screens” and the TV is just another one to deliver content and media – particularly the good stuff – HD.
The ad was pretty good. It conveyed the concept to the right target audience – everyone who is into apps should know about viral videos.
We posted about this over on our site too. We ask the question…Was this commercial a bang or bust? It might not sell a bunch of TVs right away, but they're onto the concept with the Apps. http://twurl.nl/dc0g7n
We're also game for feedback? We want to build a TV app for Vidli. What do you'll think would be best?
