I don't think it is very effective, but that because I now cringe every time that ad's music comes on. *shudders*
But the target audience is probably the kids who usually watch TV at that time. And I am sure for all of them the song gets them enough to bug the hell out of their parents.

That ad is so bad even the cheerleaders don't work for me... :o

Omega Supreme! Yay! But so much for his "sacrifice". He just removed the only options the Autobots have to get off planet: the ship and space bridge.

PS, If I buy one of those Girl Gourmet cupcake makers, will they stop screaming at me to get one in EVERY ad!?!?!

I take it that means the Animated cartoon is over on free-to-air already? Over so quickly when they play it every day. And it'll probably be a year before we get any new episodes, with a new season yet to be done (or even officially confirmed?).

yeah...Omega Supreme appeared today and that's it....
no more Transformers Animated for now

Playing Animated every morning was a bad move. Kids will forget them pretty quickly and move onto new things.

Not being that many episodes (compared to other cartoons), You reckon Toasted TV will repeat it?

Possibly, but it wont be for a while, it took them almost a year to repeat the first season of TMNT.

Besides I'm sure they have to repeat yu-gi-oh or one piece again by now! :p

I'll make the call now that any replays will be on their Saturday 6am show! :D

If I hadn't seen these eps before I think they'd be really confusing to watch. I really hate how they cut to an ad break when a character is midway through a sentence or even midway through a word! The person who cuts/edits these eps also deserves a good janglies-kicking.

lol Much agreed. They should show that ad during a footy match or something when adult guyz are watching. For Christ's sake, kids are watching that ya know! :mad:

Considering how we have seen Lockdown with his chainsaw, surely prowl's armour should just be around the corner?

Yeh, I think the same thing too. lol

That Carlton ad was a failure?!? Dammit, it was brilliant though. No accounting for taste I guess

Carlton ad? I guess I missed it. The Sci tech ad's pretty clever tho. Anywho, I'm done hijacking the thread. Back to TFA ...

This one :)

While a lot of people might say that it's very entertaining this ad was considered to be a failure by Carlton Draught because data showed that it failed to increase the sales of their product. This ad is now used as a case study in schools to teach kids that ads cannot just be entertaining - it ultimately has to sell the product (the primary function of a commercial).
